2:32 -> Zippo hand warmer: it puts a lot of heat that last for more than 10 hours (constant heat, without fading out) and is instantly rechargeable with lighter fluid.
I've been using mine all week. one of my favorite gifts from my mom.
I appreciate the time you take to investigate and inform. Keep up the good work my friend
i cant believe the amount of suvival gear you get in a supermarket!!! i live in the uk and even my local outdoors shop doesn't have that much stuff!!
We can buy a rifle, Grocery shop, pick up a wedding ring, clothes, Toys, Vehicle Tires and such, Fishing Gear, A Couch, Bed, Sofa, Dinner Table, Dresser Drawer, Kitchen and Bath Stuff, Gardening and Yard Tools, and a TV... all in one spot
DropForgedSurvival. crazy!
DropForgedSurvival that's Walmart for ya
DropForgedSurvival very true..get an oil change and alignment while you shop for groceries..girly girls can get their nails done too
NAVAJA means knife/blade in Spanish
You are correct but it is also a very specific blade design as well.
DropForgedSurvival the foldable shouvl gets sang in in and locks up
As a fire starter I always use dryer lint. I wrap it in tin foil and store it in a zip lock bag
I was at our local Walmart just before the woohan flu got started, and they had the SparkForce marked at .99 cents. There were seven of them on the hook. I bought every one.
👍🏻👍🏻
survival card makes for an awesome EDC. disappears in your wallet/pocket. easily handles easy to mid level tasks. thumbs up!
I just picked them up .... borrowed them from a friend here in town.. I like them actually.
Ring of Fire playing while talking about fire starters. Well played sir!
Totally Planned Out.. Called Corporate and Everything.
...... Lmao Jk. Very lucky I must say
Vernon Spu
DropForgedSurvival nice video you have about the same thing as my local walmart in Tennessee
There are a lot of factors in prepping.
One plan I found that successfully combines these is the Marla survive system
(check it out on google) without a doubt the most incredible survival website that I've heard of.
Check out the extraordinary free video.
Vernon Spurrell lol
You should definitely get a Colman camping grill slash stove they are invaluable in a survival situation and can double as a heating unit as well a couple years ago me and my dad lost power during the winter his stove is electric but we had the camp stove and it worked great any time I have extra money I buy three or four of the refill canisters
Again! Great video! some buddies of mine and myself are planning on doing a primitive camp trip in January in Marble Falls and all your videos are great learning resource for EDC and survival on a budget. Hailing from Odessa, TX BTW.
Thanks for the video , Im putting together a EDC bag for my daughters car for Christmas , I like those survival cards they will work....... since she has no idea of what to do during a EDC scenario. thanks !
Wow those knifes were so cooool
Love the video man I am definitely going to pick up one of those belts thanks for the info in the description.
It’s funny how Aventura is playing in the background and this is awesome I like these videos I feel bad because I’m a start doing it and have so much survival gear
That folding shovel looks great for a vehicle prep kit. Love the walmart vids, Keep'em coming. I usually like to spot check the hunting and fishing sections as well..
Will do. The shovel is on my short list of prospects.
+DropForgedSurvival That survival card is fantastic as well, always carry it in my wallet.
+David DeBergh Thanks for chiming in with some feedback!
the ruler is for measurements on a map for distance.
Yes. I realized that afterwards. Thanks for chiming in! Take care
Or for your di- I mean what
Those zippo hand warmers are great, I have two of those large black ones and I ordered a smaller sized white one because I loved them so much. Great to keep in a sweater pocket and warm up your hands very quickly
Jacob Hernandez are they reusable..what do they run on?
In order to find the best selection of things... u have to ask which Walmart stresses camping and hunting equip. They are all different.
the shovel works pretty well. have to bend more of course but still good.
have both of the items you chose. great minds.
the ruler is for maps (distance)
The knife/machete isle is my favorite isle too.
Cool video it's good gear most of it works good
I work at Walmart in Houston and your stores have more stuff then what we have
If it were me, I'd buy their $10 nylon camping tarp instead of the cheap folding shovel. Add some paracord tie out loops to the corners of the tarp and add some bungee cords for an instant shelter. The fire starter kit looks like it takes up some room- so you might as well add a Bic lighter, some dryer lint and maybe a small tealight candle to the kit. (2 is one and 1 is none, as they say)
Thanks for another fun video.
(I've earned over the years that it's better to buy quality gear the first time around and not have to first buy 3 crappy versions that didn't work. And all the "combination" type tools usually ust end up being heavy, clunky and an impractical pain in the butt to use- especially the chinese made stuff. )
I've actually used the survival tool as my EDC for a while. Cheap and damn good for what you pay
I have a oazark trail flash light. It is amazing I got it with a multi tool. You may like that better. But it is just a suggestion.
That package opener would make a great gut hook for cleaning big game
Thank you for posting. At our local Walmart or at least the one that I go to 80% of the stuff you were showing in your video flies out the door. I never knew about those fire starters as far as the Machetes usually the only one you showed 3 kind there. I will definitely try to find some of those fire starters.
Ive personaly carried the multi tool card for 2 years and love it you got yours for a dollar less than mine surprisingly havent had to sharpen it
If it works for you! get at it!
I'd like to see you open them so we can see the stuff better than in the package 😁
Congratulations you've just earned yourself another subscriber lol. Keep the great vids coming brother and stay safe out there!
Haha welcome aboard! Be sure to scour the feed and leave in constructive comments and ideas freely.
I saw them while u were filming and they just caught my eye.
Oh ok awesome. I can look out for them in future Walmarts I visit.
Ring of fire played during the fire gear 😂😂😂
Pretty well timed!
I bought both the card tool and fire kit just before I watch the vid
The cheap Wal-Mart emergency tent work good as a liner in my shelter
You must get a hammock !!!!!!🤪😁 please!
The machete that has the small knife that comes with it. Is far more better than the one you picked up. The blade is much thicker and sturdier. True stainless steel blade. I buy one every chance I get. I use one on my property all the time. It's got a good weight to it. Like if you ever needed to chop a zombies head off or something. You could with ease with that one lol.
I had one gave it to a co worker..so I'm going to replace it
yo ok so by the light me tinder, there are some water, windproof matches. I use them and they are great
I got the ozark trail pocket knife for 88cents at my Walmart a long time ago
Imagine if they had trench/tactical shovel my dad has one it hurt if you get hit by
You should check out the camilus carnivore x, good steel and treatment, good for shavings and notches.
Buy the shovel it's good I bought one and love it
Nice? Thanks for chiming in on this. How long have you had it for?
I’m planning on getting the ust parahatchet as I’m doing a practice camp weekend ( me and my friends being idiots in a tent in my yard) and with tindle I was wonderful if I would be able to make a fire with it
Hi my friend, as you show the cutlery. Nexst to this article you had the "multy spice" This is a verry conforteble thing for cooking on picknick ore camping. Greetings from Brussels (Be)
with the first spork ther was a gerber box with a picture of bear grylls on it which looked like a survival kit .
can you look at it and test it out.
Your must make a video of how you are starting with the same fire starter😜👍
I got a knife from Walmart for 4$ which is really rare in Hawaii. I had it about a year as my edc, shitty knife steel but looks nice. It’s a folder with wooden handle. Black wood with brown at the top before the bolster. Very nice knife for the price.
Nice! $4 seems like a good budget deal.
I bought that shovel and had to return it because, I never used it once mind you, after tightening and loosening the shovel head (that's how you assemble it and dissemble) the shovel head was limp and no matter how hard I tightened it it would dangle around.
Good vid, i would have liked for u to have opened everything that you recieved online. Thx for sharing👍
you can get a better real deal military issue one that looks like that at an army navy store for 10 to 15 bucks and its made from better steel
The multi-tool I use for out in the woods for shaving bark down for fires and I use the knife edge for cutting fishing line
Those same flashlights that are about $13 for 10 are sold at dollar tree.Besides i would much rather have one or two really good flashlights instead twenty dinky one's.
Yup... 5-6 pack for a dollar
Now what Walmart are you at that plays johnny cash! I think its time i move there 😂
watching this in 2023 and looking at these prices is crazy to me i miss when things were actually affordable
A good house hold hint for an item seasonally in that section. Hunters clothing scent remover detergent or sports wash is also the same. If it removes human smells from clothing. I have also found clothing your dog or cat gets to... Takes the smells right out too.
I LIKE THE BASEBALL BAT FLASHLIGHT AND THE COMPASS WHISTLE
Just saw this....total contrast after 2020 now there is nothing in stock every time I go to the store.
Can you do something about foods to take on camping trips?
@4:03
the mini fire starting kit in the plastic waterproof container i have for myself ive used alot and bought more to replace (bc i used it to much the rod was barley) i would get that bc only its like 7.00 and you get a watertight container and firestarters atleast it worked well for me
Sporks are fking awesome, i hold a foldable spork in my bag at all times.
Hello Chris I picked up the ozark trail 250 lumen flashlight and it wasn’t a horrible flashlight.I hope you will be able to bring it to the channel soon
I love the intro
Have you gotten any of the camillus blades? I just got a combo folding shovel and bolo machete from them for $20, they have another combo thats a hatchet, folding saw and small fixed blade knife w kydex sheath same price.
Ive never really had any issues with camillus.
I was watching your EDC and Survival shopping at your local wal-mart video week 2 and noticed that your under valued your savings on the waterproof case fire starter set. you showed the single @$7.96 and the One in the Waterproof case @$8.42 and you explained the six pack cotton Packs were included and the ones showed separate were $2.86 which meant you saved $2.86 but you forgot that you also got the waterproof case which usually runs around $4.88 to $5.00 ,which if included in the savings using the lower price would have given you $7.84 + savings and if you added all the items separately would have been around $15.84 in total plus tax. So the combo kit is actually a much better deal than all the items bought individually. Basically you got a waterproof container with six starter pellets for just under the cost of the starter itself and a $.56 fire starter. Just thought I'd mention it .
Great Observation
Glad to see Im not the only one that heads to sporting goods section after hitting the door at walmart, my wife thinks Im insane..lol
You... are not alone good sir and more sane than most if camping a survival gear are on the brain.
I live in San Antonio as well...do any Walmart's in our area sell the mountain house 5 day survival food packs?? I only seam to find the single packs
Wow,that was the most stocked I have ever seen a Wal-Mart camping section..lol
Really?
Yes
is there any way that you could do a $50 BOB tutorial
the folding shovel is awesome it is light weight and easy to fold
Roger that
Baabaamage 3 Armys Maggots! you get it? ;D
your Walmart looks really nice to shop at. Up here in Canada we're lucky to find 10 items in the camping section. I wish Walmart would pay that much attention to stocking Canadian stores.
I keep hearing Canada has Walmarts that are a bit sparse.. Im sorry to keep hearing that.
Dont know if you ever got the folding shovel or not, dont waste your time on it from Walmart. Go buy one from military surplus as it will hold up for years and better metal. As for fire starters, vaseline and cotton balls can make a stock pile for cheap and works.
hey did you ever test those Nextorch setups? maybe I'm just missing the videos.
Off the subject but where did you get and what brand is that mini clever I have seen on your videos?
That is mine! My design from my company.
It is the DFS Mini Attila.
Also the multi tool that comes with the camullus machete is my edc knife it's worth a looking at also love your channel by the way
Thanks.. I keep circling back around to it.
660 lumen flashlight you for sure want, get extra batteries, the high lumen means shorter battery life if you leave it on. You will want the high lumen, over 200 is good.
Now I must do a $20 Walmart BOB challenge with my bug out buddy
Cool!
i love the fact johnny cash ring of fire is playing in walmart 4:40
Would you be able to do a review type thing with the Zippo hand warmer
Maybe
I'm interested and adding survival fishing equipment do you have any ideas?
The ruler is actually very helpful
the camilaus machete looked like a good find
I went to a Nashville trip a couple weeks ago and we went to a science Museum and in the gift shop there was a survival card to there too but my teacher didn't let me buy it because we were about to leave
I picked up the Ozark Trails 11 in 1 multi-tool pliers and a Life-Gear search light last week.
Nice! How are you liking them?
+DropForgedSurvival the light is bright as hell, 250 lumens on high. The pliers came in handy yesterday at work when we got several boxes to open, I used the serrated knife on it and cut through them easily.
Good Deal! I really appreciate the feedback!
The $1.97 is actually not bad of a pocket knife. I bought one about 6 years ago and still use it now and then.
Your stores have way better stuff for sale, than the stores in QLD Australia, you would have to go to a speciality store over here, and pay a lot more also...
Granted Australia is a bit out of the way to most of the world... I have of clients and their shipping costs are rather high!
Hey Hey Chris, you miss the Hoosier state much? It's been a beautiful summer here and with the cool weather here for a visit.. it's camping time!! Just wanted to throw this out there since Wal Mart carries a bunch of different models of em, the Bushnell series of flashlights have been my go-to EDC pocket lights for over a year now and none of them have let me down in any way. They are really budget friendly and have a few different styles for whatever the need might be. Check em out if you haven't already ;) Thanks for the great vids brother!!
Nice man. Good to know. Getting buried under all the "Fenix, Thor fire, Nitecore, Lumintop, Thrunite, Olight, Nextorch, and all the other internet brands it's easy to passover or forget about local in store brands... Which is one of the reasons I decided to start venturing out to all my local retailers and getting in touch with my surroundings... So to speak.
Please tell me you're going yo beat the crap out of that Gerber bolo machete, and I would like to see you test the Coleman camp knife.
I can certainly Try... Even Cheaper "$30" Items can add up quickly... As soon as I am able.. The Crap beating will commence.
Damn, I wish the Walmarts around me sold that much stuff (knives, blades, camping and survival)
I'm in Ontario, Canada and the Walmarts here don't even sell knives anymore, and guns? HA! not for as long as I've been alive.
The shovel and the orange michete is good
I have one of the Navaja. I laughed when I saw it, until I saw the price... 99 cents. My $1 knife has done an awesome job of opening every letter and package I've received for the last ~6 years. It's not a hard use item, but I don't feel it's junk.
Surprised you only stuck to the Camping section for survival items. I am assuming you had to focus down the video and keept it brief. The kitchen section has options for pots, pans, and utensil/knives. The Tools section has better lights(hand flashlights and work lights) and obviously tools. Gardening has portable hand tools, seeds, plants, and other useful outdoors items. School/office section for bags, pens, sharpies, and paper. Pharmaceutical items, vitamins, and travel hygenie in and around the Pharmacy. There are so any other places you can go for survival items than just the Camping section.
Hey Chris big fan here..hope you are well brother..wanted to lyk I'm also a huge fan of the carnivore machete with 12" blade with saw back..comes with a small mini knife multi functional in it's own sheath as well..buttoned onto the machete..I believe it may even come with a fire striker..it is the most amazing knife slash tool..slash deal..I think ever sold at Walmart I've had mines for about 7 yrs now I believe and I can't find them anymore at my neighborhood Walmarts...I'd love to see you buy one and do a review on it and see what you think of it's quality and performance for it's buck...btw...even the saw on it is amazing and fully functional..what I did with my machete because the handle is very slick..is I sliced grooves in the handle with a razor knife making it very easy to hold onto..thank you and take care..
The card tool. I've always wondered if they could be turned into a make shift axe/hatchet using just the card itself (and paracord or zip ties)
Meaning could it take down a branch big enough to attach it to, split that branch for attaching the card and prep the branch for use as well?
You should get the camping food they have at Walmart, they have a bucket for about 40 bucks and the emergency bars are 5 bucks. I think that would be a good video to make
Funny thing.. lol I actually have that in a future video that is currently queued Up.
love your vids man
Thank you
wow you replyed i didnt expect that!
Karsten Stegink I try to talk to my viewers as much as possible
like the edc and survival shopping vids
honestly dude I would be picking up the 3.97 knives...I have seen guys taking them and getting shaving sharp blades with minimal sharpening, plus it is always a good for back up
I here you. I've some of them are ripe for the picking and others..... Not so much! Even at $4 I'm picky.
Love the videos mate and especially things like the Walmart series, we have to settle for its special snowflake little brother of 'Asda' here in the uk which literally is just for food, there aren't any shops like Walmart/Target in the uk and it's always really fascinating to see how openly sold 'survival' and 'prepping' gear is in America it's almost like it's a mainstream accepted concept, well I'm rambling now like Brian from survival on purpose keep up the good work mate
Yes I know how you feel. I live in the UK for a few years. Here in the states it is pretty much accepted and it is main stream. It's frankly marketed to "hunters and campers" but It fits the bill rather nicely.
American Walmarts are awesome. Here in Canada the gear selection is limited and kind of lame.
