- In this video we start a fire using the Bamboo Fire Saw Friction Fire Method. This is a great bushcraft survival skill to know how to do. This is part of a fire making series I am doing which includes videos on: Friction fire - Bow Drill Fire, Fire Plow, Fire Thong, Fire Piston, and more.
Are we finally going to get more primitive content again ?????? Love it
That is awesome! Dry bamboo is very light to transport too, so this method is definitely a must try
rubbing two non-native rodents together is much harder to start a good fire with.
@@whothefoxcares Try it with a fire salamander and a few of dragonflies. That should work.
@@whothefoxcares Fire piston method using a stick and a squirrel
Starting to understand the value of frog poison. It starts fires and puts them out. Nature is awesome
LOL if you're going to bring a stalk of bamboo with you, why not just bring some matches? lol.......
That's awesome I had no clue you could do that with bamboo thanks Sean
You definitely have talent for explaining bushcraft with excitement.
These recent video slightly remind of 2012 Shawn back when he was making & using primitive tools/weapons.
I love that little kid like smile Shawn has when he makes fire. Lol
That's his biggest appeal! Shawn has that child-like innocence in his demeanor.
Survival information is quickly becoming a fav genre for me
And yet these new contestants wait to get flint to start fire. I’m on here trying to learn just in case I ever make it on lol. I ain’t waiting for flint.
Getting the hot fingers seems to be your new signature!🔥🖐
Awesome thank you
Loving this series.
I've never seen this method so clearly explained, thanks!
We were taught this method back in my youth with the boy scouts of the Philippines. Couldn't help but smile when that fire finally burst. Brought so much memories
Yes, that is a very effective method, but there are no places where I live in Utah to harvest bamboo. We have western River Birch, which with a Ferro Rod is extremely easy to start a fire with. 🔥
I live in Asia and bamboo are all over. Please step outside of your house and I will javelin throw some over to you, Utah right? If you don't see them, please visit the neighboring state since my arms have been hurting a bit.
@@_-_-.-_-_ Unfortunately, if you come up short, they'll land in the Great Salt Lake and they'll be ruined.

That's very interesting to know, I'll have to look into that and see if there's any bamboo in Northern Utah. Thanks for letting me know that.
Excellent work Sir! Most instructive! 🔥
Thanks for all the fantastic fire skills, I hope to never need to use.
Awsome vid and bushcraft needs to be protected
As an avid hunter of Panda bears, I will definitely keep this technique in mind, in case I get lost in one of China's numerous bamboo forests.
Interesting method, if you have dry bamboo, for sure. Thank you .
Beautiful video! Could be done with a sharp/jagged stone too effortless and also the best bamboo method I’ve learnt to date
Keep 'em coming.
Hi I’m a huge fan
Love this channel 😊
Another excellent survival video. Very well done.
Super interesting primitive fire starting method I will keep in the tool pouch. Sgi cousin.
Love the content, thanks!
I want to try this. Thanks Shawn 👍✌️
Pretty cool
That’s one I haven’t seen before or don’t remember it. Good job!
Nice to know different ways to make fire depending on where you are.
Thanks Shawn good information
That was great. Never heard of this one, but I don't live anywhere near a bamboo supply. Next time I travel, I might have to give this one a shot just for fun.
Thanks for posting!
Fantastic. I'm going to try this.
Thanks for doing this!
I’m really enjoying all of your primitive videos
Thanks. I've heard of this method but never seen it done until now.
Great video! :)
Nice
Wow great video! Well done.
That's a good thing to learn
Whoa - very clever method. Great video.
I miss the primitive archery videos so much, it's been over 6 years since the last video :(
Watching a few of those "simple technique" channels from asia, i think Bamboo is kind of a cheatcode to so many survival situations it´s not even funny.
I bet it helped a lot to a quick evolution of mankind in that region.
Very cool.
Very impressive
Marvellous!
Looks like a lot of work, but,
Thank you,
Your videos are always entertaining to watch and learn from.
This is so cool!
Very interesting !!
I am Asian. Yes bamboo fire is the best 💯 bamboo is used in everything 🤣 such a great plant for us
Awesome!
Very cool
That’s pretty good that one man!!! A brilliant series
I always carry bamboo with me everywhere I go.
That's very easy.
Where the bamboo fiber burns with the pressure that is supported by the weight of the body.
And the hot dust of loose friction will accelerate the occurrence of coals.
Wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen this.
Nice!
I would love to see some small live bird traps. Home made of course.
They catch and roast sparrows in Asia. I would love to see small bird traps as well. I heard they don't have a gamie taste.
Of all the hiking and camping I've done in 81 years I never ran into one single stalk of bamboo in US forests, a good method in South East Asia perhaps.
I see bamboo forests in Georgia and Alabama.
I see bamboo frequently in NC and SC on vacations. Large and small types.
Plenty by creeks in KY
Seen it in the CA Delta. Bout it. But never looked for it either.
well, I just googled it and supposedly it does grow in the south eastern US....colour ME surprised because I've never seen it myself either.
Thanks
best vid of this on yt
Hey man, the stove is hot! 😁
Sweet I've never seen that 1
Short strokes are important to keep the heat from the friction you just made. If you go the entire length of the bamboo stick you’re only utilizing the friction heat from the piece in your hand
An immediate like after the cleeeeeeeeean slice
Low key that was insane
thanks
I'm not frequently in places that allow me to scavenge bamboo. But I'll keep this in mind.
Dude, you are awesome!!! I love your videos!!!
i gotta try this
HAPPY FIRE FRIDAY!
That is impressive 👌
Great. Now the next time I get lost in south-central China I'll be set.
Hurray
i do this same method with river cane also that chopper looks like its been to ww2 and back lol
Ok...I really have got to try it... ;)
When you do the fire thong, play Donna Summer's Hot Stuff in the background.
As always Shawn, gloves Shawn, gloves. Protect yourself and your family
Big Bambu’
I thought of crocodile Dundee when I seen your machete. LOL 😂😂😂😂
I know I requested for you to do it and didn't think you we're going to do it that quick. People in the islands use bamboo in fire making!
Make sure you’ve got good dry bamboo.
places with bamboo had it easy mode during ancient times
it looks like you could apply more pressure easily if you support it from below
“woooo smokey” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fire breath Shawn is the real reason he is successful. Like a fire breathing dragon. Lol
That was interesting but bamboo is rare in many places, especially dry bamboo. It is easier to carry a lighter when in the woods than a bamboo stick.
The next time I'm lost in the woods in northern ontario I'll be sure to look for bamboo to use this method.....
Well, it is light-weight and portable. ;)
@@emmettturner9452 so is a pack of matches lol
I would like to know the RH when you were doing that. The RH is rarely as low here as it is in eastern Oregon. I would think it would be difficult to start a fire using that method if the RH was high.
i know that different woods have different smells. does burning bamboo have a smell? [If so, what is it like?]
Dayum !!
Hay, watch out for that "Giant Cat" in the background at 2:46 !!!!!!!

Pretty awesome demonstration of fire starting. But , is bamboo all that easy to come by in hiking. Especially big ones like that ?
If you're hiking in Asia, you will find bamboo all over the place.
I thought for sure it was gonna blaze up right here 4:03 with all that smoke i was wondering if you could do this with large river cane because bamboo isn’t something we just have around in the United States unless we plant it ourselves
What other wood would work?
i think this one better then rub stick in wood
Did you come up with that on your own. I've never seen that one. Great job
This technique originates in Asia.
I saw it when I traveled to Vietnam and Thailand. Villagers use this method a lot.
Did it really only take that minute or so to make the ember or did you have to do several takes?
👍
looks more doable than the classic "rub a stick against board" method.
👍🐿👍
