The Survival Russia Channel is about "The Reality Of Survival". I live on a Homestead in far away Russian wild nature. Here is no room for "TV" Survival.
Only Reality counts here. Survival Russia promotes the philosophy of always carrying equipment and never to be parted from equipment which will affect chances of Survival.
So did the old timers and pioneers of both the East and the West.
Get Out and Train and Get it Done!

Little things like admitting your fire went out the first time make this channel one of the realest on CZcams, so you sharing that little bit had the desired impact I think. Not just one of the realest survival channels but a very honest and real channel overall, which I very much applaud. It would be strange to watch something that was edited to death and only showed successes. Actually, that reminds me why I haven't owned a TV in over 11 years.
The "Nice Pillow of Snow"-method(tm SR) works fine again. Take care Lars!
Please don't take this the wrong way but I continue to be impressed with your mastery of the English language. I love to watch your videos. Keep up the excellent videos.
Thank you very much! :)
More people here in America need to learn more languages. And I mean learn them. Not take 4 years of classes for a language and not even being able to converse with a native speaker. I learned Russian and Macedonian because my macedonian grandparents insisted I learned macedonian and russian is easy after learning any slav language so it was quick to get it.
bobbluntman it’s not so much about just knowing a different language. It really helps your intelligence and mind as a whole. It’s been documented many times. It’s sort of like why learn calculus in college when you are a political science major or something.
@Eric Jefferson I'm not amazed at his speaking of English its how well he speaks it e.g. slang and idioms. We will just have to disagree on Paul's complexion and ethnicity.
Good video! I too am a fan of the Mechanix brand gloves, they fit me perfectly and they are fairly rugged. Thanks for the info on the wool pants.
Love your videos, Lars. Thanks to seeing you use them and talk about them, I am the proud owner of 2 Silkies now. A Big Boy and the Pocket Boy. I’m a farmer in west Texas and the Pocket Boy is really going to come in handy fencing. We have a lot of brush that grows up in our barb wire fences that interferes with stretching the wire back where it needs to be. We are also loaded down carrying steel T-posts a post driver and fencing pliers. I’ve tried other pocket saws and none can compare with the Silky in comparable size. Thank you for pointing a lot of people like me to a great product who would otherwise never have heard of them.
I have subscribed to Many Channels, let me tell you, coming from an outdoorsy kinda guy, your channel is greatly appreciated! And , I was able to reach the person who makes the blizzard proof wool clothing, thanks!
Being able to say “I sucked (failed)” is awesome!
I watch a lot of CZcams and your channel is one of the less than a dozen channels I’m subscribed to.
Great info and videos!
Thank you :)
Totally agree, Lars is "Awesome"!
Thanks Lars. Weather here in BC Canada is similar to what you have there. Below -10C/ -15C it is always easier to split logs with an axe as the wood is frozen and brittle. We have Spruce, Birch, Aspen, Balsam Fir and some Vine Maple. The inner bark of the dead Aspens is like brown fibres and rubbed between the hands makes a hair-like tinder. I like those wool pants! Wool pants are becoming rarer now, this is a shame. Yes, it is important to show fails because even experienced people like you have to overcome obstacles and identify alternative materials from the forest. Best wishes to you and your Family.
hello Lars,, thanks for sharing, I was a boy scout in 1964 and then a Marine back in 1968, I love the outdoors and your great videos, the winter is good camping and less deer ticks,, keep up the videos, thanks ,, Gary USMC
Well done Gary. I agree :)
Lars knows how to speak better English than 60% of the people here in America.
I love your no nonsense approach to Survival and the techniques that go with it.
Your pine fire did not start, So rather than just play it off and use Birch bark to get it going and not say anything, Instead you tell us that's EXACTLY what you did.
By doing that you let people know that sometimes things don't go as planned so you have to think on your feet and do something about it.
You are one of only 3 people on the internet that I listen and watch ALL of your videos.
Taro from Taro Movies, Survival Lilly and yourself.
The reason is, I myself know that I can make it out there if need be, And I know that if people watch The 3 of your guys channels on surviving then they have a better than average chance of making it out alive.
God Bless my friend, Jason.
Once again I come away with the gift of great knowledge and experience you are kind enough to share . Keep up the awesome job.
Just got back from three days of camping in the Upper Penninsula of Michigan...I can vouch for your techniques.
Always no nonsense good stuff Lars. Even if you botched your fire lay, you owned it and that is a true test of character. As always, we enjoy your videos.
Hey Mr. Survival Russia thank you for showing me all of the cool shops for the funky stuff. I really like those trousers.
Another great video! Its nice to see that I'm not the only person to have failed at plan "A" Fire starting. Good to have a plan "B". Cant wait for the overnighter.
Awesome video as always Lars!
Good idea to find the trees that have already lost their built in head-knocking roulette log! ;)
Neat seeing how effortlessly you can move around in those skis, even with a log on your shoulder!
It's a Saturday evening Survival Russia binge watching night! AWESOMENESS
Another exciting and entertaining video Lars, I love to see those trees you have there. They are so tall, most of the trees on my land are only about 30 feet tall. That is a great advantage cutting those logs on top of the snow with the blade zipping along. Outstanding video as usual, be safe out there brother!
Thanks for the tip on the store. Going to hopefully be making a couple of orders to be ready for next winter. Cotton lined will be a nice option.
Really cool video like usual..., i like your humor and your type of presentation without taking yourself too serious. Greetings from Germany, Best wishes, Goose
The Katana boy is seriously awesome, I am going to get one ordered soon. I went to the Silky website, their prices and delivery are better than anyone else.
It was interesting to see when you opened the sledge that you 'figure eight' the cord around your thumb and pinky to tidy it, a lot of people don't know about that, they just wrap the cord around their hand and then get a tangle when they need it.
An old guy I worked with in the '70s showed me how to figure eight, I have done it ever since, people are amazed when you show them the difference it makes.
It makes a whole lot of difference indeed. The Silky K500 and the 650 are truly awesome tools :)
Great! I love my 500 katanaboy, for most folks I think this is the practical limit of size. It fits great on the side of a 80-100L pack, or simple slung on your back. I dig it. batoning is like a bow drill, great to know how to do, but you really shouldn't have to.
I love your channel!
I find it amazing how simple you make your preparations appear when in reality a vast majority would struggle to get things in order at the campsight. Your methods are well planned and prepared. Personally, I seriously doubt I would ever attempt to stay out with the amount of predators in the vicinity without a firearm. Even then, you still have to sleep. Quite impressive indeed. The tree felling was artistry. Wood & steel are your canvass.
Thanks Fred :) "Printing Tools" have become increasingly unpopular here. I keep it out of sight :)
Survival Russia - In such cases then: " discretion is the better part of valor."
We must always be vigilant in our surroundings even when our intentions are sound and honorable.
i guess it's the end of the winter hunting season in his region. so only way to legally carry a firearm in the woods is to keep it holstered.
Lars, you prove time and time again, that it is important to have good tools for survival needs. I do not think that buying on the cheap is a wise thing, mainly because one's life may well depend on the tools that we have with us when survival is of great importance at any given moment. One cannot afford to be let down by using cheap tools, so I comprehend why you use the best for survival situations. I cannot see the use in batoning, when the forest provides wood of all sizes in order to start and maintain a good long lasting fire without having to cut down wood into little pieces. Great video with lots of fascinating information. Take care...

Greetings from Rochester, New York
Can't go wrong when talking tools...cold fingers, i felt your pain my friend...peace...woods
Cold hands suck :)
Another honest and fantastic video! Thanks!
Soon Lars and his family will have a big party in the woods...burning down that huge Siberian Log Fire(Awesome) ....we will be there as well...party, yeah party!
Glad you returned and picked us up again
I like moose too, This animal It’s like Old prehistorian Jurassic Park mammal. Long Big Legs, and a BIG Long Head.
Respect for the PREHUMAN ANNIMALS.
I am not sure if this is terribly useful. But remember last time you were bringing timber crowbar to drag around big tree?
I was thinking, a heavy duty luggage strap. They sell those in camping equipment too to help back pack, etc serve same as a rope in the old days, but now with clip on.
My point, those strap are made out of super heavy duty nylon. It is very light and very strong. Made for very cranky Traveller to fly luggage in international flight. It simply doesn't break under normal duty. One can simple knot those strap on a fallen tree and start dragging tree using it like a super strong rope.
Another informative video. I enjoy your video work. I like the fact you always make them in a real time environment not staged. Keep up the wonderful work. Thanks for your effort.
Perfektné video, to je ono, len tak ďalej. Držím palce.
Another great video! Always appreciate seeing reality to woodcraft videos. Thanks again sir!
Lars ,thanks ! Good to see you in your element and happy ! Please keep the excellent videos coming !
Great video Lars, your self awareness and honest presentation of being in the woods is awesome, showing when things go wrong and why helps to learn more than only showing it going perfectly as some other channels ( except for the links you recommend you have ruined any other channel for me to watch! Ha ha it’s a good thing) am waiting on my first silky saw to turn up, question for you regarding the Siberian log fire, could you stack a second layer of logs on top of the first staggered back to extend the burn time or would it just be more intense fire and burn quicker?
Thanks Lars, I always learn something from your videos and appreciate your sense of humour.
Another great video Lars. Keep them coming.
Another thoroughly enjoyable Video, Thanks Lars.
Hello Lars! Thanks again for good video! Yesterday i was at my friends forrest and learned the hard way that pine isn’t good for making fire :D well next time i will find some dry spruce.
Pine is great if it's dry :) but spruce is awesome for getting the Pine wood going.
But it was good lesson! Next time i know what is dry wood and what is not. It was -12 so it seemed dry but it was just frozen of course. Your videos are just one part of the survival school 😁
Lars, Thanks for another awesome video!
Lars keeping it real - much appreciated, as always! ATB, Gereon
You have all the right gear, I really like the wool cloths.
Thanks for the video Lars!
Great information from a great channel. Stay warm.
Hello, Just discovered your channel a few days ago and am enjoying it. I find since I live in a temperate rain forest (S.E. Alaska) nothing beats wool. Almost forty years ago a company here in the US came out with an "Australian" wool underwear set. Mid to light weight top and bottom. There name was Healthknit but I believe they have long since gone out of business. However the wool is still made by others. It can be washed and even machine dried (low or medium heat)! The most attractive thing is that it has no "itch factor" at all. Zero. Even on sensitive skin. I have tried all the polypropylene (Swedish company Helley Hansen was the first which came on the market about the same time) and other synthetic fibers. In the wet or when you are sweating especially nothing beats wool. Here where we get fourteen or fifteen feet of rain per year and winters may make it to the low single digits (F) wool really shines. I bring this up because of your remark about liking the cotton lining on the Swedish Army wool pants for your skin. Try the Australian wool for winter. Well I have to get back to catching up on your previous videos. By the way in our Hemlock and Spruce forests here with some Alder everything can get so wet the only way you can start a fire is with a five gallon bucket of oil. So I liked watching your 'wet fire starting. Take care. Doug
Yes, nothing beats wool :) The wool felt on the Swedish trousers is a bit rough. I have not had any problems with the cotton. I absolutely agree on the synthetics. No matter how high-tech, they are not as good as wool when sweating especially. Thank you for the comment :)
Lars, I know it's a lot of work setting up the shots of you approaching or moving away from the camera under normal conditions, much less with skis and in conditions not conducive to using a tripod. Thanks for making videos!
You got a new subscriber here! I like your channel. I like Russians too. I have a Russian friend that was here in Alaska last summer and fall to write an article about the 150 year anniversary of the Alaska purchase we showed him around a bit, went fishing and did a little drinking. He's really a fabulous guy! I wish I spoke Russian as good as you speak English!
Thanks Lars .. we in the UK are getting a blast of your weather over the next few days minus 4-5 snow expected which probably be a summers day for you lol
Sounds like spring time to me :) Thank you too Steve.
Lol yh we are not used to it England's more of a wet and windy country and we don't see these temperatures all the time cheers Lars ..
Lots of good info. Thanks
I think the trousers are Vadmalsbyxa M/39-58, i own a pair and a jacket i got from my days in the military, they were going to clean out a big warehouse and throw it all away so i took some home, that is about 20 yrs ago and they still works awsome ! Thanx for at great video Lars =)
THANK you very much for your content.
Good video, im a big fan of wool for snow, i live in maine and started making my own clothes out of blankets this winter and never been warmer
Lars, reference Jack London's "To Build a Fire". About building a fire with cold fingers. Best
Hey Lars, thanks
Thank you too :)
I know that it gets very cold there in Russia and I am glad that it don't get that cold here in Arkansas. I have been through Alaska several times and lived in Michigan, but I bet is nothing like living in part of Russia.
great video, thanks for sharing. you have a great channel, honest and proven techniques
What I liked in your video here (same as I often stress these practices/techniques) is the 'elevated' management that is good method for working in the snow.
Awesomeness Lars.
Thank you for the videos
Sundays with survival Russia make for the best
I like your skies. I had a pair custom made in Vermont. I love them. They are not very common in Canada or the USA. We call them snowskishoes. But I think they are really Russian Hunting Skis. Correct me if I am wrong.
very awesome thank you Survival Russia AKA Team Get It Done
Love your videos.tough mountain man you are.i been prepping my raised garden beds and dodging tornadoes &flooding here in nw tennessee,so im playing catchup on your videos today.have a gr8 week
Good luck and stay on top the flood friend :) Thank you!
nw tn! I have a place at Reelfoot! Cool!
Scott Mollyhorn idk where that is.ive only lived here months.im near big sandy.how far is that fromu?
This is great content sir, the best to you and your Pink Ninja, great work, keep it up!
Amazing the way your damp gloves stuck to the cold steel.
Nice solo and adventure!
ha ha, loved the 'cold opening.' :'D
I'm surprised you don't wear wool gloves and mitts? I wear a wool glove liner under a wool mitt that the finger part folds back, and it's quite warm, allows for work and shooting, etc. You know all the good points of wool already. I keep spare dry wool liners in my bag, and sealskin mitts with felted wool liners my wife made incase I get stuck in a bad way. Wool is great around the fire, too. I'm spoiled, as my current job is at a general store that sells wool everything! Glad to see you out in the bush again. Take care.
I always go tool and food heavy. Birch bark is definitely king beside fatwood.
Nice wool shirt !
love your channel, man!
chuka....chuka...choo....choo........awesome !
Cool technique on batoning. I’m gonna try that.
The rajah 2 does well in the jungle environment as well. Only 2 things I don’t like is the steel which can be better and you have to take care that the lock doesn’t jam with debris.
thanx for the vids,, camping in denmark now,, its cold,, maby a week then spring!!! lol,,,,,,
Did you make those skis? Backcountry skiing has become one of my favorite activities, and it's especially interesting to know that it was used by my ancestors as a means of traveling and hunting.
In the area in in currently I find either birch or use pine pitch. Get that stuff going and ya get a hot fire fast. Great video, I like your Hunter skin's but can't afford them so I'm checking out good will for older wide skin's to adapt if possible. CHEERS
French bâton, from Old French baston, ultimately from Late Latin bastum: stick First known use . . 1520
I carry a saw rather than an axe, as well. A Sven Saw 15. One of the most useful tools in my pack. After seeing the Katana, I may upgrade. Ton of useful info on SR's channel. Hope you get to 100k soon. I just subbed and made it 1 less to reach that milestone. Cheers.
Love this video " I sucked" To make you feel better lars my fire lighting always sucks. So the correct tool for me to light a fire with is a tube of the good stuff. We have no birch bark, no spruce branches , no fat wood and no chaga in our forest
All failures are ours of course. Either in knowledge or in laziness. Proper preparation leads to consistent success.
What materials (species) are common in your area? Any plant materials that are fine (thin) and dry should work. Some work better than others.
When you process tinder for flame or ferro, make a good handful or two look like teased out rope if you can. If it isn't fibrous, then make paper thin (translucent are best) shavings (aka curls aka feathers). Fine scrapings, such as with a knife spine on wood, are even better for the initial tinder with flame or ferro.
Look too for punkwoods, cattail down (aka fluff), etc. Any good coal extenders that will grow large hot embers. With some materials in some weather taking an ember to flame is easier than going straight for flame. If nothing else, the ember is heating and drying your materials while you work at it. At best a large enough pile or chunk of coal extenders will grow the ember into flame all on its own.
Try at least one new species each time you start a fire. Soon you will have found some favorites!
Really cool .👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Need a froe. That is the way to baton wood.
Lots of Lynx around my area Lars, they have even been seen in the City now. Yes humidity is terrible, we are the same, 16-25% is or should be winter norms, but we have been in the 65-85% all this year.The last two snow storms have now dumped major snow on us and when I was in the bush yesterday the depth looks the same. Your honesty and realism is why your channel is #1 on CZcams, and I see Woods is in the audience who also has a great channel and some awesome scenery and areas to travel. Lars thanks for the Sunday video and have a great week my good friend..Cheers Fred
Thank you for the awesome comment buddy :) Spring Time is just around the corner, well kind of :)
Same here in North West Canada Fred, both high humidity and lots of lynx. My dog has treed two lynx this winter.
High winds and high humidity do make winter feel worse.
M40 work best with jackboots, the M43 you can use with any type of boots, they'll never slide up.
Interesting video as usual glad I found your' channel
Why do ya wanna punish the guy? He has a great cabin!
I can't find a single thing to complain about or make fun of in these videos. AWEZUM!! ;-)
Thank you very much :)
I have a full tang knife like your big folder and have carried it with me above all other tools for almost 20 years
I love the sound of the big silky😍
And yeah, ZIB is great, theyr own stuff is awsome!
The Sturm stuff works fine, eventhough its made by miltec.
Miltec is not the best, but the, i think its called "US assault pack 2", backpack is great... I use it every day... Since 3 years by now💪
I used to make some ww2 reenactment for many years and the sturm wool uniform worked really awsome! In winter AND summer.
Awsome video Lars...👍
Greetings, GR🤘
I agree, and thank you very much Freund :)
great video
Can you eat moose droppings in the same way you can eat hare droppings? That would be a pretty satisfying meal...
Nice
Katana Boy Man!
That back cut was way too low, no hinge, very dangerous. Also trying to push over dead standing trees like that is not a good idea either because from constant back and forth movement it may brake at the top.
did you even watch the video? dumb ass
Hi Lars, love your videos. I want to ask what you think of a Wool greatcoat in a survival situation. The pluses and minuses. Keep up the good work!
the reason your fingers get warm "like a second wind" is due to the Hunters response. here is a link. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunting_reaction
Yay!
Splendid ^^
Not shaking Lars, shivering in the cold :3
Serious thought though, does anyone make a battery powered camera/battery warmer for the cold, maybe a very small electric blanket? It could really extend the life of those batteries.
How about the pocket hand warmers? Camera cozy with hand warmers! $$$Good luck!
A company in Canada called Kendricks sells heated camera cosies, about $200 for one for a full sized Dslr.
Thats a thought. Some of the very best can last up to a day so with a proper case/sock it could work.
I'm a Dollar Store kind of guy. A pro with a big buck$$ camera probably could use the Kendrick. Thanks!
‘spasibo
Really good instructive video. Your bobcat tracks look a lot like lynx tracks. Is that possible in your area? Thanks for posting such quality information.
Have you ever heard weird sounds big foot etc Lars you are proper gravy the man I’d wanna stay with and learn thanks for videos
I have heard some strange sounds, such as a very loud knocking on trees, not too far from my camp. Nothing else really. Some friends living 15 km from here have bigfoot stories.
@@SurvivalRussia wow that’s what. They do you are brilliant and funny I love when you said AK popular tree with gun on it lol thanks 🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
