Birch Bark
Split wood just as you would if you were using it to build a fire. Use your knife to get shavings from the middle.
Punkwood
The spongy inside of a decomposing tree. Should be charred before use.
Fatwood
Smells like turpentine, and is harvested from dead pine trees. The resin collects in the trunk and in knots, and this is what makes it flammable.
Funghi
Some funghi catch a spark pretty well. Others should be charred before use.
Dry Grass
Good for making a ‘nest’ to help start your fire.
Wood Shavings
Split wood just as you would if you were using it to build a fire. Use your knife to get shavings from the middle.
