Up for swaps, my True Tinder Fungus fire set, complete with flint and steel. Comes in a tobacco tin with some homemade fire discs, which are cotton wool swabs impregnated with wax and paraffin. These things are waterproof and will take a dull spark if you tease the edge into fluff.

I would like to trade for a green or brown solo tarp, like the DD solo. Cheers.

Update. No need for a tarp anymore. But this is still up for trade. A seasoned true tinder fungus, known as birch conk or chaga. It's an air dried solid block sat in a tobacco tin. Scrape a bit up with your knife into a fluff ball and use the flint and steel to drop a spark onto it. This stuff is leagues above Horses Hoof Fungus. A coal will burn hot and long. It will take a spark without scraping as well but that's darn tricky to transfer to a tinder bundle as well as put out!

But now I don't know what I need. If you have something for trade let me know. I like bushcraft stuff and lightweight stuff.....
