How To Light Birch Bark With A Spark

http://paulkirtley.co.uk/ How do you light a smooth sheet of birch bark with a Swedish FireSteel (also known as a "ferro rod" or 'fireflash')? Lighting sheets of birch bark with matches or a lighter is relatively simple. Birch bark takes a small flame quite easily and it then burns well. Birch bark burns hot and for a surprisingly long time. This is due to the oils in the bark. You can see the oils burning off in the black smoke that is given off when the bark is burning well. But how do we ignite a sheet with a single spark? Many of us these days who are interested in Bushcraft and Survival Skills carry a Swedish FireSteel. We carry these because they are extremely reliable, you can get many, many sparks from them, many more fires from them than a box of matches or a lighter but where people have some difficulty - the thing that they find a little bit tricky - is lighting sheets of birch bark with a spark. So, we need a good technique - or combination of techniques in order to light birch bark in a reliable way (as well as maximise the life of our FireSteels). There's one straightforward technique that makes a massive difference to how easily the birch bark lights. In this video I share that technique and show you how to combine it with good FireSteel technique to light your birch bark reliably every time.
