    Nice one Rob...loads in there for everyone and a few new tricks to try too 👍. We did an upside down fire a few years ago with Dave’s reflector oven for a ritual Fray Bentos pie cooking. The heat was unbelievable 👍

    The feathersticking with stationary knife worked nicely for fine work. That's a new twist for me to try. Haven't seen anyone else show that. Thank you.

    Upside down fires minimizes the smoke a fire produces. It’s encouraged for use in South Africa to minimize smog in winter on the Highveld.

    Hi Mr. Evans, I put on a Scandivex an the Terava Puukko and Skrama. The Skrama works just fiine. For the Puukko I am not convinced of the performance. Since you are an expert on Scandi grinds, do you think a true Scandi would be the better option on the puukko?

    • @RobEvansWoodsman
      @RobEvansWoodsman  Před rokem +2

      No definitely not, the edge will be too fine and probably chip (or roll) stick with a microbevel, it'll be easy to sharpen as I think the steel is quite soft.
      Hopefully that helps.

      Should be new on everyone, I'll be doing another video on that technique with a slightly bigger knife and a straight blade saw, that tree was a tough bugger and full of knots.

  • @dennisleighton2812
    @dennisleighton2812 Před 2 lety

    Hi Rob. Clever idea to do most of the cutting from top down! However, why did you not first roughly carve the baton's handle, square it off slightly (it's a very short knife), then cut it off to do the next log? That knife did seem to make heavy weather of the batoning. I must compliment you on that sawing style you use (cutting on the pull stroke)! I've not seen that being used on any other video I've seen, or being used in real life. 👍👌 23;30 Afindispensable tool. Cheers guys!

    • @dennisleighton2812
      @dennisleighton2812 Před 2 lety

      Oops I made a pig's ear of that! 23:30 Upside down fire. I've been told the reason for doing this is to eliminate smoke. Any other reason? Also, I'm a total tenderfoot so came into folding saws only recently. The way you use it makes me think it's an indispensable tool. I like the idea of cutting the tree from top down. Why not use that monster knife up front rather than the toothpick? (rules for the tenderfoot?)

    Every time I watch you use your bushcraft knife to pry off a lump of wood i can see it bending and I cringe! Why not carry a small axe??

    • @RobEvansWoodsman
      @RobEvansWoodsman  Před 3 lety +1

      Seriously? I use an axe all the time, the Bushtool can take a hell of a lot of abuse, I know because I give them thorough testing, most of them are over 3mm thick with micarta and bolts in the handle.
      That particular knife was 12c27 4mm thick short woodlore profile with a stag handle.

      It can take ABUSE, I'm not saying I abuse a knife, smashing it through a knotty log with a rock is abuse, you must use weak knives , I don't, I wouldn't use sideways pressure to pry with a stick tang pukko or a Swiss army knife.
