BIG safety tip: use a sharp knife! It might seem counterintuitive, but when using a sharper knife you have to exert a smaller amount of force, increasing the amount of control you have over the knife. Also, a sharper knife means a cleaner cut means faster healing and smaller scarring.

It's cool actually learning something new. I'd never seen driving your knife into a stick to make a draw knife. I think it's been a couple of years since I've learned a new trick. Old dogs really can learn new tricks every once in awhile. 😊

Been a country boy all my time. I always like learning a new trick. The idea to strip bark from trees, brilliant mate.

One good tip for lighting fires FAST in seconds …I actually learned from the Royal British Marines. Keep a tampon in your fire kit, (I know weird right) tease it out till it’s a ball of cotton, place under your tinder shavings & use a bic lighter. It’s super fast & cheap & trust me your fire will be up & running in seconds. YES flint works well & every time as well. Also another ignition to help speed up the process - use your lip balm it’s Vaseline based so it’ll help give ignition faster as well. Just roll the tampon with a coating, tease it out . BOOM . Fire & tinder lit. Hope this helps.

Thank you for providing a full video of actual skills. Most other vids just talk about the skills in general and rarely demonstrate them. They are more focused on knife size and shape and steel types. They like to analyze brands and models and forgot about the actual techniques needed for bushcraft.

One of the reasons why I think you are one of the most Totally awesome bushcraft channels on YouTube is because you do instructional videos unlike a lot of them that just show off and you don't really learn anything.

"the most important tool in the backpack." Hey now that you mention it, when are those back packs coming back to the store?

10 skills in 10 minutes. I love them all. I would love to see 10 knots in 10 minutes, 10 fire lays in 10 minutes, 10 shelters in 10 minutes. This style of video is helpful for teaching. More please.

Best fire steel striker I’ve ever used is the back of a leatherman saw.

Yup! There's a reason for the Mora Knife being so popular among people all over the world. It's useful as a multi-tool. If you don't have the right tool, the Mora Knife can really save the day. Not the best tool, but the best allaround tool!

Thanks! Number One take home point for me was the drawn feather sticks idea. Worth the entire video alone!

[youtubecensorspeace]

I watch so many of these, I was not expecting to learn something. I do not always like surprises but thanks this was a good one.

[quinntheeskimooutdoors]
