Are you still using the fire piston?

Great video, thank you for posting!

[bushcraftbartons]

@Diopterman Thanks...No not often...I use more the flint and steel.

[snaponjohn100]

I guess that I should have read ALL of the comments. :~) Someone else told you that it was a Wilderness Solutions 2nd. Gen. I didn't know that you put this one out. Great job. Blessings. John

[snaponjohn100]

That is a Wilderness Solutions 2nd. generation fire piston. It was made in Joplin, MO. eBay seller is Walleringbear. God bless. John

@Survivalfather Thank you Mario...

Ive made several fire pistons that turned out very junky looking. That one is a work of art! Beautiful!

[saradreaming]

Wonderful Video Mike. Being not very familiar with fire pistons, they felt a bit like novelty items to me. Having an option that requires less tender though seems to make them a much more viable option. Thanks a bunch. : )

[bushcraftbartons]

@saradreaming You are very welcome Sara :)

[MrBudwv]

cool little gadget. I've got one made by a good friend & the parts to make one from water pipe.

[Ericidryfly]

Mike how would you compare the piston to your flint and steel?

[bushcraftbartons]

@Ericidryfly To be honest with you...I would not change the flint and steel for the firepiston. In my opinion it would be more reliable (not as many mechanical parts ) and it is more fun to use :)

[Andersbork]

Beautiful piece of kit!

All the best to youguys:o)

[Ggreenvideos]

Sweet lookin' fire piston Mike :o)

[phr1sk37]

That is a very nice fire piston. Just curious what is your preferred method to start a fire in the wet weather, especially when most things are soaked?

I dig the t-shirt, Jesus gave His back for you and I!

[bushcraftbartons]

@phr1sk37 Amen to that Brother...my preferred method when it is soaked ? A lighter :)

[nedeljkomostar]

Nice one Mike. But lets say you broke that small ring and you lots the other spare one, have you give a thought about any natural material you can find in the woods as a replacement that will actually work?

[bushcraftbartons]

@nedeljkomostar Good ?....it would be very difficult because it needs to be absolutely air tight and very solid. To tell you the truth I do not know if it is possible. One thing I would try is make an o-ring out of half cooked resin and use some juices rom the birch leaf as a lubricant because the juices are a little soapy. I would need to test it.

[ArtisanTony]

google this and see if this is it?

PISTON-FIRE-CB-S Piston Fire Starter, turned Cocobolo wood . . . $59.99

[bushcraftbartons]

@ArtisanTony Thanks Tony...I will check it out.

[ArtisanTony]

Very cool Mike! I have a few pistons and can't keep them clean enough to work :)

[brutallindigo]

Like the piston Mike .....Had mine for years don't use it a whole lot....I like chaga and char cloth I find it really hard with punky wood...Never seen one with a piston valve before that's a good idea.Mine is made of cobolo wood and cotton seal for a gasket .do you know what type of wood yours is?

Great Vid !

[bushcraftbartons]

@brutallindigo thanks...no I do not know what type of wod it is but my guess would probably be the same as yours..cocobolo wood

[ChristLikeness100]

Cor! Wouldn't mind one o'them!

[busycando]

Great job Mike,your demonstration with the fire-piston was great ! thanks,i will try and get one of those, it looks to be a must have. keep on bushcrafting.

Greg.

[bushcraftbartons]

@busycando Thanks Greg...you will like it.

[SurviveN2]

That is a really nice looking fire piston Mike. That valve is a nice idea. Good job on making the fire with it too. Thanks for sharing. Take Care :-))

[Waldhandwerk]

Great item Mike, super skill and good package. Blessings, Sepp

[bushcraftbartons]

@Waldhandwerk Danke my dear friend :)

[seanmulhall]

Beautiful fire piston Mike. The valve is a great idea.

[bushcraftbartons]

@seanmulhall Thank you Sean....

[KURGAN44]

Beautiful effective piston.

[kidwells]

Wilderness Solutions 2nd Gen is correct. I have a few of Jeff's pistons, and they are wonderful. The value is an awesome innovation that allows the pressure to be released. Enjoy!

[1620416204]

That is a (Wilderness Solutions 2nd Generation Fire Piston) Mike. That is a beautiful fire piston brother and thank you for a great video and review.........Tom

[steintanz]

Beautiful piston .. looks better than the metal ones (my opinion). Greetings, Tim

[bushcraftbartons]
