Whups clean forgot to say the 4 bundles of paracord I nabbed from Mesquite a while ago arrived in the UK safe and sound and I collected them last week.

Thanks mate, looks a lot different to the stuff I bought from ebay. no compaints though, this stuff is probably better.

Anyway thanks.

On offer are (I think) two folding fork 'n' knifes from Trekkingnut of the mind-scarring photo fame. :yikes:

it has indeed arrived as promised!!! i was overjoyed and started playing with it immediately and then realized i have no idea where the tinder goes.... do i need to take the screw out of the end???? or does it fit inside the cross head of the screw?? im confused and want my mummy at this point....

 

[resnikov]

Forgot to say on here but got my leather tools from Biker :0 (did pm him when I got them.) Very happy with them.

actually in the cross head of the screw??? but theres no space!!!!!! im still confused....

Is the cross cut out of the screw? If it is, put a small pinch* of the charred briquette into the center of the cross. You don't need much, but you'll need to have a bit of a play to work out how much provides a usable coal ~ too much and it falls off and too little burns out too quickly.

Edit: * the 'small pinch' needs to stasd proud of the screw head.

ok, i will give it a go. when ive been using it with no tinder inside, there doesnt seem to be any residual heat on the screw after extraction.... is that a problem or is that me just not understanding how it works?

There isn't enough friction to noticibly warm the screw head ~ but there'll be enough to make the tinder catch . Are you lubing the shaft? Doing so prevents air escaping .
