Love your videos. I like the way you use simple effective gear and clothing that don't have to be brand name. This is ideal for those who are on a limited budget. Keep the videos coming!
I laughed when I saw you were wearing a field jacket liner. Until about 3 years ago I still had one I was issued in 1987. I gave it to a friend's kid who had just joined school cadets. A great piece of "retro" military kit. I enjoyed the gear break-down thanks.
Yes, the liner is one of my favorite pieces of gear but is showing its age. The pack definitely melts into the rocks out here, I am looking to get a set of jacket and pants if I can find them or have an anorak made.
The older stuff is so much better for top layers. The underwear and long johns have gotten better with fabric technology... but old military and just thick wool is better than anything new I have bought. I have an old police jacket from the 1980s with a fur collar (removable) and zip in liner that is the one the warmest coats I have ever owned.... Everyone always laughs when we ice fish our hunt, but I'm always warm. Also have a pair of military mickey mouse boots from the 80s.. again the warmest boots for Minnesota-30 weather. My coldest weather outfit cost me maybe $60... thats boots, jacket, 2 pairs of socks, thermal underwear, pair of flannel lined jeans, t-shirt, button down flannel shirt and hoody sweatshirt.... im good for -30 all day... usually get too hot and gotta take layers off after the sun's up 😆 🤣 😂
I agree, I have some of the modern gear as well but have found it to be not as comfortable and not nearly as durable, especially if you spend any time around fire or bushwacking through bull thistle/bramble thickets.
Car Sunshade. 50 X 70 inch fleece throw. Use that pack pulled over your feet and legs. Three beanies. Gaiter. Gloves. High calorie food. Water. Have fun. Camp often.
Thanks, agreed. I kind of tried to wear close to what I would if I were actually in the situation.... the boots and extra shirt were definitely extra but I did not want to totally freeze ha ha!
I have that anorak and love it as a dry weather outer layer. The field jacket liner is very useful even out of the M-65 jacket. Thanks for the gear breakdown.
I, as I’m sure others, would love to see you survive through the night in your bushcraft with the amount of gear you would bring, if you knew that having to survive the night may be a possibility. I would imagine that many would have basic survival supplies in their backpacks just in case. Whatever you would bring: blankets, the poncho you mentioned, or others. It would be really cool to see that internal temperature go way up!
Solar flashlight are awsome. So are lil solar radios. A 22 cal pistol in case you run out of food. Gotta eat small game like squirrel, rabbit, wild turkey.....
Please tell ppl to wear fleece ( wool is heavy). Any other material will freeze. I usual wear stretch pants with ski pants. Regular tight t-shirt ( contain sweat)with fleece jacket or sweater. Ski jacket. Fleece hat. Gloves insulated with fleece. Been living in my van for 10 years in colorado. 👍 BTW do not depend on your vehicles battery to keep it warm. You'll find yourself stranded wit an empty battery. Buy a lil cooker for 16 bucks and propane for meals and heat when it gets bad. But best is to roll into a fleece blanket and tarp.
Sorry but I was not wearing fleece in the overnight video. I prefer wool, that is why it was with me. The wool shirt in this video is at least 15 years old and will last another 15 if taken care of. I prefer wool as a mid layer to fleece, it is slightly heavier but last me longer and is better in the wind than the fleece jacket I am wearing while filming this. We all have preferences bourn from our experiences. I find the weight and thickness of wool to be better suited and longer lasting than fleece or other plastics/synthetics especially around fire and crawling through the brush.
Id love to see you stay overnight in that shelter but this time with a survival kit, it would be soooo interesting to see what a diference a kit could do. Keep it up! Super super nice videos ❤
I agree, good wool gear is expensive but well worth the money, much better around campfires as well. I have quite a bit of surplus gear that is still very good shape. The second hand market is a good place to find old woolen clothing at affordable prices.
You NEED to get the Unihertz Tank phone! It will be a phone /flashlight/battery pack replacement! 22,000 mah battery, 1200 liu(?) .. basically a super bright giant flashlight on the back with a night vision camera, and the specs are actually better than the iphone in terms of CPU and RAM lol.
Is this your only your only CZcams channel? I used to watch one where you did a lot of Cold Steel tomahawk reviews and you made and sold tomahawk covers you made to support the channel. Good video.
Those videos are still here, just older. Kind of felt like I was just doing the same thing ha ha, not many new hawks to review in the market. I used to do fishing and motorcycle camping vids too but moved them because CZcams algo likes you to keep to same general topic or it will not promote videos at all.
Hey a strange video idea. Can you make like a judgements of the crafting in the sons of firrest and some survival systems in that game. Like what is practical and what is just gamelogic

Glad you liked it, Just using what I have ha ha, saving the extra brand money for time in the woods!
That field jacket liner is the best money can buy .
Other than a Woobie I agree.
@@sirdimos1
Seems quite big. . Like a sleeping bag
Doesn't have to be the most expensive, state of the art stuff...wool has worked very well for hundreds of years. Nice video.

Happy Saturday . .
That looks like the m65 inner .. thanks for the run through of the gear .
That bag would be easily lost .

Great gear review, straightforward and to the point. Thanks for explaining all your kit.
The “Smokers Jacket” is the best! Saves my life in the field all the time when its cold out
Cool Video my Brother. Alex Bushcraft
Hey thanks for checking it out, you have quite the channel. Great looking builds, I imagine you will do very well on YT!
@@Scablands_Scavenger thank you 🙏
Thank you for this, too.
I like that you use 'ordinary' gear. "Use what you got." OTOH, you were really quite lightly-dressed for the conditions.
Thanks, agreed. I kind of tried to wear close to what I would if I were actually in the situation.... the boots and extra shirt were definitely extra but I did not want to totally freeze ha ha!

Had that same liner with some BDUs. Great combo with all wool undergarments
single most greatest bushcrafter in the world
Solar flashlight are awsome. So are lil solar radios. A 22 cal pistol in case you run out of food. Gotta eat small game like squirrel, rabbit, wild turkey.....
Great to know!

wool is amongst the best also environmentally friendly. and it has got good frequencies and breathable. polyester is not good or anything synthetic.
I agree, good wool gear is expensive but well worth the money, much better around campfires as well. I have quite a bit of surplus gear that is still very good shape. The second hand market is a good place to find old woolen clothing at affordable prices.
What?! No happy meal?…..shame. 😉🤪 The Hidden Woodsmen looks cool. Nice gear. ✌️🇺🇸
Ha ha ha, no McDs for miles and miles, maybe a gas station burrito if your lucky!
I'm really glad I got recommended your channel, really good stuff keep it up man :)
Men who enjoy the wild are usually decent men.
Great videos love them
If ur willing and able. U should do another make shelter with minimal resources. Then another video where we are just kinda with u

If you hands are ever cold put them between ur thighs because of the artery’s in them it with keep ur hands warm 😊
What do you take for protection? (from bears, mountain lions, wolves, coyotes, ect)
You can just put rechargeable batteries in that lantern
👍
Hey a strange video idea. Can you make like a judgements of the crafting in the sons of firrest and some survival systems in that game.
Like what is practical and what is just gamelogic
Hmm, not too familiar with the system in that game, would be interesting for discussion though.
@@Scablands_Scavenger like its about survival like what things ingame sounds intersting and what is like dangerous etc.
Just audicuriosity there's a lot of gear that's electrifying that will keep you warm. How come you never use any of that electric equipment?
Do you have any general advices for surviving in the wild?
Hmm on the spot, I would say Fire, water, shelter. If you can carry/make/improvise those things you will be doing well short term.
Ur knife? Swiss pocket knife?
