Native American Indian Fire-Making Kit

Nature-Watch has established a relationship with an expert in primitive technology and traditional Native American techniques.  This incredible individual creates authentic, age-old tools that he individually hand crafts.

Our Native American Fire-Making Kit includes a fire board made from cedar, a fire stick crafted from seep willow (a plant often referred to as mulefat) and tinder from cotton wood bark and mugwort.

To make a fire just like Native Americans have done for hundreds of years, simply rotate the fire stick in the hole on the cedar fire board until you develop a pile of dust that smolders. Then feed in some of the tinder bundle and gently blow until a flame appears.  If you get really good at this, you can start a fire within 2-5 minutes!

As with any hand crafted item, each kit is unique and may look slightly different from the one pictured.  Can be used 2-3 times with the material provided, but you will need to obtain more tinder when you run out.

NOTE: This product creates a real fire!  As with any flame, adult supervision and extreme caution are required.
