Premium Char cloth 


This material when properly prepared will ignite with the slightest spark.Used throughout history to help start fire in primitive methods. Char cloth can help you start a fire with flint and steel and ferrocerium (fire strike/flint rod ),bow and drill (fire bow ).

The charring process occurs when a natural (vegetable fibre such as linen , cotton or jute ), in this case 12oz tent grade brand new canvas (100% cotton ).that has been converted via pyrolysis into a slow burning fuel of very low ignition temperature .

my Char cloth is capable of being ignited by a single spark that can in turn  be added to and used to ignite your tinder bundle.
