The Survival Russia Channel is about "The Reality Of Survival". I live on a Homestead in far away Russian wild nature and here are no room for "TV" Survival.

Only Reality counts here. Survival Russia promotes the philosophy of always carrying equipment and never to be parted from equipment which will affect chances of Survival.

hello guys and welcome to survival Russia so is it possible to make a flint and steel fire with stainless steel today we're down at the survival rush of studio here cuz the weather is a little bit weird with the rain and then Sun and rain and so on so yeah but we're not here to talk so much about the weather we're here to talk about is it possible to make fire with stainless steel Omegas flint and steel fire with stainless steel cuz I'm seen now and then on the survival scene even some of the big guns they have this claim that you cannot use stainless steel to create sparks from a flint and by making sparks making a fire so I think that we should put that to the test today I have a five-year-old daughter sitting up here so if there's any interference little people well sure so with me today I have the silk a pocket boy 170 it's a stainless steel it's a high quality Japanese stainless steel I'm gonna use this as a striker then I have some Flint I brought with me all the way from Denmark because in this specific area

there's not one rock to be found and certainly not any fling I also have some chaga with me Chaka is a mushroom that mostly grows on the birch trees I think it's also called true finger truth in the fungus no I think it's called shoot into fungus in the English of American and it makes sense because this is awesome

to make fibers to my knowledge Java is the only substance or what you can say found in nature that can take a spark from flinters deal with the no processing other than being dry it doesn't have to be dried over fires XD paste if it's if it's dry slowly but it's extremely light so small pieces will dry pretty fast if carried on the body or between layers of the clothes I think the reason that many of these big guns are saying that it's not possible to make flint sto fire with stainless steel is because it doesn't create that may sparks but it to create sparks and I think they haven't tried it with chaga but let's have a go at it Flint in chaga stainless steel see how this goes try and scrape it a little bit with a nail here to fluff it up a little bit I know if you can see this box there not a lot of there's not a lot of them but there there certainly is harder with the stainless steels and we serve with a file for example need a very sharp edge on the on the Flint compared to with a normal striker

hey we got it ah yeah it's certainly a lot harder but doable me and my daughter we actually collect this on grass in case that I should be successful I know in my all viewers and subscribers are sitting larsson chaga but there's some new guys maybe they don't know Java reason why this is much much better than charcoal or char cloth is that it burns much hotter it's a solid ember and is easy to transfer from one piece to another Jesus is like all of us here because I'm alone with her some of you might know so it's homestead videos for another 10 days or so what do we have grass where the hell is my jogger just falling down here have a nice big piece here that's good by Charbagh dump it in here in situations where I use Java for fire making is normally just raw spruce branches so so pine or something like that so for me it feels actually a little bit like cheating using too high cross also waving it is a very good method of getting it going instead of using a humid breath it's also a little bonus into me and my daughter we have a awesome video coming off one of the days it's gonna be really fun yeah this is our TV when it does a fire come come on Oh Tommy now so we have the fire put the stainless steel and the flame on the jogger

according to quite a few big guns out there this should not be possible so always do your own research and get out and train what is all about what is all about what is important I see we're a little troll here behind me yeah so this note I'll just say thank you for your time and subsea subscribe like and all the stuff and check the links in the description of course there might be something useful for you thank you to all the donators from patreon and PayPal so get out and train and get it done see you next time here in Russia
