    Finally someone included a sharpener in their kit, most kits omit this, a survival knife is not very effective if it's dull as a log,

      Nice kit! knowledge is still key I think everyone will agree. With the game pole a notch either side will retain the cable ties a bit better. Just an idea. Thanks for your content good luck with the new job. Wish I had done that 40 years ago 🤠🇦🇺

    Major, after being sub'd to your channel for over a year now, I find it refreshing that you still feel the need to learn something. You could probably teach Mors Kochanski a thing or two. If you do eventually open your own school and have adjunct instructors, pls make sure of their background (my expertise). This was another great video Sir. There hasn't been one of yours yet that I didn't learn something new/reinforce the basic(s).

    @preacherjayk Před 2 lety +15

    love the kit. I have switched mainly to 275 cord. it's strong enough for most things, still has the inner strands, but I can have a lot more heavy cord when I need it , in the same space. I don't find myself needing anything as heavy as 550, But then I'm in the Northern Arizona desert,

    • @baronedipiemonte3990
      @baronedipiemonte3990 Před 2 lety +1

      550 is the basic military standard. Locally I haven't been able to find any. So I settled for some 150 (Ridgeline & basic tying) & 1100 (to bear the weight of a person).

    • @Minuteman_Expeditions-wo2cp
      @Minuteman_Expeditions-wo2cp Před 2 lety +2

      Do you reckon for the last couple thousand years the Native Americans carried 100 feet of cordage around with them everywhere they went outdoors?! No. Learn to do without man-made cordage, for true bushcraft/primitive skills. This will give you the knowledge to comfortably go without cordage all together. Natural cordage is everywhere. It doesn't weigh you down or take up room on your person or in your pack. If you're set on needing a lot of cordage, learn how to make cordage from plastic bottles and other trash, not just natural materials. It's a very similar method to making leather cordage.

    • @dustin7562
      @dustin7562 Před rokem +2

      I use kevlar and some type of black cord that came in wazoos essential kit and I use type 1a cord for my kits the 550 is usually too big to fit I use a maxpedition fatty for my kit.

    I hope you make a CZcams million bucks Andrew as you always give more than full measure, and give "the rest of us" more confidence every time by showing such great life-saving tricks. By the way, amazon has that strobe light you have on your helmet - add it to your store there and I'll buy it with your link. I think you still have some covid residue hanging on. I sure hope you get all better real soon. Thanks so much for all you do.Maybe someday some of us will start telling you how what you did saved us one way or another. You really are the best.

    I love how you were able to find a knuckle bandage to match your shirt. That's like downtown! Brother, you cram so much great information into so little time. I can't get enough of these! I was in Boy Scouts when Moses came down from the mountain. I only made it to Tenderfoot, so all this show and tell is refreshing my memories and giving me new knowledge. But, it is now 1700 here on 10 July 23, medication time. Cheers!

    Great video Andrew. Each one is like a chapter in a field manual. I truely believe that if a viewer found themselves in a survival situation and retained the skills you teach, chances are high that they would make it out alive. Bravo on a job well done. Thank you and best of luck tomorrow.

  • @markuk7860
    @markuk7860 Před 2 lety +5

    Great content. I thought you would of recommend calving a groove in the gaff pole so it holds it better? Zip ties can slip plus a groove around the pole would grip both zip ties and the hook if you bend the hook appropriately. I adapted the feral rod and striker by replacing the striker with a hack saw blade. It will give you a secondary method of sawing a small branch. You can lash it to a section of wood and it’s as good as a multi tool saw plus you can cut metal with it if you choose that hack saw blade. I would add to the kit a safety pin or two. (That’s what we call them in the UK) it takes up no space whatsoever. You can always fill a kit with stuff that are gap fillers like a needle and safety pins. One of my favourites is a button along with the needle n thread. Also I like to add a small magnet so that I can magnetise the sewing needle to create a compass. You just need to rub the magnet on the sewing needle and place the needle on a leaf in water and it will point to north.

    Bics are always worth having around. After they run out, you can use your knife to shave a pile of plastic from the case onto your tinder, gently roll the flint onto the plastic without igniting it and when your flint pile is big enough, roll some spark onto it.

  • @backwoodsbrooksknives4625
    @backwoodsbrooksknives4625 Před 2 lety +12

    Andrew, we have to convert you to to Canadian Jam Knot. The equivalent bulk of #36 bankline to your zip ties would give you way more versatility and instead of roughly 30 lbs of break strength you could have close to 200 lbs. Sure it takes a little longer to tie, but the advantages are worth it.

    Former smoker for 12 years. I always just gave my Bic a shake and it would light just fine. I live up towards Canada, so it can get pretty cool in winter. Also for a wet lighter, you can roll the wheel on your pant leg to dry it even faster.

  • @adamcruz9414
    @adamcruz9414 Před 2 lety +2

    The kit is interesting and of course sound in its contents. However, the REAL gold of each of your videos is the ancillary info/tips n tricks you provide over its course--approachable presentations of truly useful techniques which can be universally applied. For these, as well as your continued service, I wish to say thank you.

  • @johnthomasjr262

    Use to be a member over on the "RSOG" forum.
    Was a great group of like minded people over there, don't know about now, life happened and I got away from checking in on a regular basis.
    Go check out Viking Preparedness, Pastor Joe was on there at the time I was there and he went by Joe Dan.
    Heads up to armchair commandos, these guys are the real deal and call out fantasy B.S. in a heart beat. Don't be afraid to ask what you need to know just keep down to Earth and practical and you will be fine.
    Edited to add: The cadre over there are all high speed low drag types that served in the Ranger Battalions or higher special military groups, they lived the life.
