This Lehman’s variety pack covers the full fatwood lineup: a pack of 8 fatwood firedrops (small individual pieces sized for one fire each), a 4-lb bundle with a carrying handle (the right size to live by a fireplace or woodstove), and a separately boxed 8-lb bundle (the bulk inventory that refills the smaller bundle).
Fatwood is naturally resin-rich pine heartwood that ignites with a single match and burns hot enough to start kindling and small split logs without any chemical lighter fluid, paper, or accelerant. The resin concentration is what distinguishes fatwood from ordinary kindling — once dry, the wood lights almost instantly from a match flame and burns for several minutes per piece, more than enough time to get kindling burning steady.
For woodstove and fireplace households, weekend cabin owners, campers, and Boy Scout troops, fatwood is the single best fire-starting investment available. One firedrop starts most fires; the 4-lb bundle is months of supply for a daily fireplace household, and the 8-lb refill stretches that to a full winter. Sold through Lehman’s catalog at the volume discount the variety pack provides.
