Charcloth is an age old technique that is used to start fire. If you have charcloth with you, it will always make starting a fire in a survival situation much easier. It will easily hold the spark that’s created using a piece of flint, a lighter that has no more fluid, or even using the bow method or hand drill method to start a fire. (Basically rubbing sticks together to create an amber, which you will deposit on the char cloth after)
This video (my very first btw) shows how to make char cloth, and how to use it to start a fire with flint.
