[QUOTE="jhawknokc, post: 1541762, member: 9214"] I like being "rugged" with a flint, but am too lazy to rub two sticks. I keep the flint with me at all times hunting, but also keep matches and a lighter. The problem with lighters is, when it's super cold outside. I like to either get the NATO matches, or just get regular matches, and dip them in candle wax to waterproof them. The hardest part is not getting a flame, it's keeping it going. With all of these, I take lint and cotton balls. They take a flame easy. If you've never built a fire from just a basic flint though, give it try. Don't want to get in a survival situation and not know what good stage 1, 2, and 3 tindling is to use for it. [/QUOTE]
