Dragonslayers Fire Management Plans and Education


QUALITY!   COST EFFECTIVE!!

Wildfire toolsThese tools (below) were designed by a career smokejumper to enhance safety, versatility, user comfort and production issues. Generally, they get the user upright, so they can see, have better leverage/balance and can respond to so many more different changing conditions with far more productive comfort.

The concept is a stronger, more ergonomic handle. The user chooses one primary tool head attachment to work with the majority of the time and carries a secondary tool head to add versatility for any wildfire ecosystem.

These tools are exceptionally light weight and balanced. If you pick them up and feel them, you will want them, and they are far more durable than traditional, fixed, fire tools.

Pulaski blades are replaceable for $ 35.00 and should last about 5 hard seasons.

New Handles can be put on your old CNC handle fittings, and refurbished for $35.00.

The Troop Tool (right) is a push button, larger bladed, lighter combi tool. There is a diagional angle set for a digging and throwing dirt, as with a fire shovel. The 90 degree angle set, (shown in the below pictures) is the stand upright, line scraping, and upright chinking, mixing, mop up device. The angle set that folds blade against the handle serves as a safety staff to assist fire fighters during x-country travel on bad or steep ground.

Troop Tool

  • Blade locked in diagonal shovel mode for digging and throwing dirt.
  • Blade locked against itself for storage and cross country travel. Serves as a great safety staff for eliminating falls on bad ground.
  • Right angle mode for upright line scraping (teeth hitting ground) or upright chinking, mixing and mop-up mode (shovel point hitting ground) takes the drudgery out of mop-up operations.



Below are the basic kits we put together for different agencies, from wildfire fighters to the U.S. Military for counter-terrorist missions and general combat engineering and armor roles.

Quality wildfire hand tools. Balanced, ergonomically superior to enhance safety, versatility
and production. First use on a fire pays for them. They are long lasting.

Shaping The Battle Space

A Book to prepare against
Global Warming and Fire Attack
Book and Dragon Wizz Wheel - $50.00

Along with this book is our "Dragon Wizz Wheel Tool" (below) which shows fire fighters and interface dwellers how to strategically set up their home in wild land fuels in order to be always ready in ignite an "ESCAPE FIRE" or FRONT FIRE to form an instant SAFETY HARBOR AREA" to survive an extreme wilfire, that cannot be stopped, before it will engulf a home.

We come to different countries, states, and fire ecosystems and put on "ESCAPE FIRE TRAINING PROGRAMS". We generally combine these with cake sales and public fair outreach or weekend live fire shows. These shows can be used to raise fire department funds for equipment and mostly for citizen education events to make communitites able to endure extreme fire events, that would normally result in destroyed homes as we see often on the news networks.

When you evacuate homeowners and lose homes, basically there is no fire management going on and fire suppression agencies in those fire jurisdictions do not really know anything except being effective at water squirting on low intensity, easy fires. Often they make easy fires look bad, but there are now methods that effectively work when traditional suppression fails.
