Blaze kings get creosote in the firebox...no big deal.
it passes the dollar bill test but I don't see a gasket aroundthe bypassYep. It doesn't 'burn out' very well, either. I dig it out in the spring.
The cat and gasket look remarkabky good. Dollar bill the door gasket, take a look at the bypass gasket and make sure it closes relatively firmly, and burn away.
Oh, and check the glass gasket by palming each side of the glass and making sure there is no movement.
The gasket may actually be hard to see. It will probably look flat, but it is actually round and sits down in a channel around the opening.it passes the dollar bill test but I don't see a gasket aroundthe bypass

We missed you too Chris. It would have been great to have a BK stove in the testing.Jeff t.....you're hired!
Sorry I missed the whole DC event, but My son and I each did shoot a bruiser in Idaho!

do these stoves dirty up the chimney like inside the firebox
Thanks BegreenWe missed you too Chris. It would have been great to have a BK stove in the testing.
When you have a low-cruising fire in the box, you get some build-up on the walls; Once the smoke is burned in the cat on its way out of the box, there's virtually no gunk in the smoke and the chimney liner will stay very clean.do these stoves dirty up the chimney like inside the firebox
Whenever I think about burning a hot fire to clean out the box or burn haze off the glass, I remember how much work it was to get the wood. Then I forget all about the box and the glass, and get the stove burning at a low cruise as soon as possible.I wouldn't bother cleaning off the sote in the firebox. Just burn it out with a hot fire or two.
