I have two knives in my backpack, and a folding saw also which I would need in camping. I have an ax which I keep at home and should get one to take with me when backpacking because the ax I have is a double bladed ax since that is what I was raised up using since childhood. Having a single bladed ax would be good for camping use and that is what I will get later.
another great thing about that Silky is it throws some mean sparks with a piece of quartz or flint, try it out for your charcloth use youll see what Im talking about.
Your knife and your axe can be sharpened. Your Silky saw cannot be sharpened. The blade is made of hardened steel. Sharpening the tiny triangles on the tips of the blade with a diamond hone have little effect. When the blade becomes dull, it must be replaced. That's an expense I cannot afford. I regret my purchase of a Katanaboy 650 Silky saw. It worked great until the blade became dull. I'll look for a saw with a blade that can be sharpened.
I know this was a while ago but you can get an old but reliable bucksaw with teeth that can be sharpened with a chainsaw file and ceramic rod you can find buck saws at garage sales and flee markets for little to no money
I live in the Arizona dessert,most utube videos are made in the woods.Are trees are palo verde and mesquite, these trees are small.Not much water to be found.I have Cold Steel Leatherneck ,would be ok with this knife a lone.But I carry a trapper model pocket knife,a soldier stainless pocket knife.I also have Sthil forestry hatchet plus Sthil 8" folding saw.Almost for got,I also carry a Buck Selkirk 863 fixed blade. What do think about my choices?You make good informative videos.A lot of logic for a young man .I am a old fart ,that soon wii be 72.But have slot of experience hunting in Arizona.Thanks for making these videos.
Watching you burn more calories than a thoroughbred racehorse on simple tasks, give me cause for concern. I hope you've progressed over the last two years; Alaska's no place to make mistakes. No place for that type of knife either. A simple Mora 110 or Robust will serve you better for the skills you require; and never travel in the bush without a sharpening/honing devise........ the axe & saw choices are great.
@@peetos-chan2835 it's little things adding up. He was just doing certain jobs that are better done by one of the three tools he brought. Leveling a tree could better be done with an axe. He isnt doing bad at all, my only criticism is to be more relaxed with that saw, it's a pull saw, so it does all the cutting on the pull stroke.
Chris Reeve Pacific "Survival" knife . Bushcraft is the opposite of survival.If you want a bushcraft knife you have to look something like Morakniv Bushcraft Black or Mora Classic 2

watching again. Spent a lot of time in desert SW. Done here? Shovel. Rock hammer or pick might be good additions! And a mule! Smiling, I am!
I would add a cold steel spetznats shovel to that .
Grub mattock would be great also .
You know it!!
I've got 2 of those waterproof bibles as well, the brown and camo. Very nice

I have the same MaxPed Jumbo i used as part of my bushcraft kit. I agree with the 3 tools discussed here. They basically complement each other.
Agreed . Thanks for saying so . I shared it .
You're the best!
They compliment each other. Just like Tender kindling and fuel.

Hults Bruks Forest axe,Bacho Lappander or a Sven saw,and my bush knives is a Helle Temagami or just a Swiss Army knife
Shovel, pumice stone and a ferrell rod.
Yeah?

Nice vid as usual man! Not sure if you’d consider it a tool but a decent pot w a bail I would add lol.
Yes for sure! I love my Vargo BOT
Hi great video! what is the name of the axe you used in the video?
GBA Scandinavian Forest Axe
I love your channel.☺
Thank you
the axe would be way faster than the saw, the end would just not be flat.
It depends on the weight of the axe, and the size of the wood. Saws can be pretty quick.
A saw is miles quicker
What brand and type of knife you are using in this video???
I CAN NOT find it in YOUR LIST. Thank you, barry
Oh, sorry about that. It is the Chris Reeve Knives Pacific

I love that analogy.
Noob here, can you elaborate on how he was overworking himself? Asking for a friend....

@@peetos-chan2835 yeah, I'm glad you saw it
Pull on the saw dude.
Whats the name of the knive?
What kind of your bushcraft knife

Hahaha while it is true, I use a CRK Pacific, I can readily show anyone that it makes for a pretty good bushcraft knife.
My 8" Corona ($25) would tear through that 5" log in less than 15 seconds.
What about machetes?
