Using primitive techniques and knowing how are different things. Yes I would rather have a Bic lighter but knowing how to start a fire by friction is a great fallback to have. So many skills have been lost in just a few generatons, don't mock the primitive. Your state of the art designer metal knife is a child of Otzi's flint tools.
