- Mors couldn't make the Winter Camping Symposium near Duluth, MN so he did a presentation for it where he talks about Knives and then the Space Age Tools he loves.

RIP Mors. This video is as good as the day it was made, a true bushcraft and survival legend
R.i.p. guru mors its easy to listen to you because everything you say is true!
Pleased you did these videos sir awsome
RIP Mors. So much knowledge passed on during your years on this planet.
Hi Mors: from one 77 year old to another ; I enjoy hearing & learning from you. Yes we slow down & avoid portages but sitting to the side is not yet an option. Thanks Brian 77
Classic Mors, classic info, classic greatness. He is our guru of woods wisdom.
This man is a prime example of knowlede is the true value of survival and there's no replacing that with any amount of money or new technology.
Mors is still the most informative genuine bush living instructors. Thanks for sharing. All the very best from Scotland. Garry
I could listen to Mors for hours and hours. I don't think I've ever watched one of his videos without learning something new. This stuff is pure gold - but more useful.
God Bless you sir! Your educational experience an your willingness to share has saved my life on two seperate occasions! Thanks to you I will always be prepared!
Greetings from nova Scotia, I cannot stress enough what a national treasure Mors Kochanski is I so much wish I could travel to this year's symposium in Alberta, I know I will never get there..Thank you for making your videos, I always learn something new. God bless Mors Kochanski, and his fellow instructors!!! Thank you for your time and attention to this comment, best regards.
Mors, you are one of the most brilliant minds in the world when it comes to outdoor/survival skills! I had the opportunity to meet you in 2001in PEI and witness first hand the magic of fire with a bow drill. I remembered thinking when you said "it is a bit chilly and windy here today so it will probably take the better part 20 seconds to get a fire started" this guy is full of .... but when you made fire it was one of the most incredible things I had ever witnessed first hand in my life. I went home and practiced and practiced then finally made my own magic. You Mr. Kochanski have inspired and touched so many people when it comes to outdoor skills. Thank-you for sharing your Knowledge!

We are very blessed to have this woodsmen still making videos. God bless Mors ! He is one of a kind!
This man is a veritable treasure trove of knowledge and information. I came across his videos only a few months ago. I can only imagine what learning from him first hand could do to enhance one's confidence in oneself and diminish one's fears of being alone in a wilderness environment. RIP sir.
Mors has forgotten more than most of us has learned. Understanding the relationship of permeability, vapor, and temperature is key.
Gems of Common Sense .. Simple .. Basic .. Nothing Fancy.
From the Master .. Respect.
Thank you Mors for your life's work you've blessed so many . I read your book Bush craft 21 years ago you shortened the learning curve by years. thank you.
I am sorry you couldn't make it this year 😞 but am grateful for you going out of your way and sharing your legendary knowledge with us Mors, thank you!!! 😊
i feel honored to be able to see a living legend on of all places youtube.thanks Mors
imagine showing up for class and you "forgot your knife" and as a result you got a chance to buy a cheap Mors knife for almost nothing
Dear Mors, i deeply appreciate what you share , show and teach.- meanwhile i am "only" 46 years old, and bushcraft (i am even not sure if it was named like that back than) was and is a vital part in my life since approx 35 years. the most true thing i have read is " the more you know the less you (have to ) carry. "
Its really good to know that some one is there who knows important knowledge.
thank you very much.
The grand syllabus is really an indispensable source of knowledge. Thanks Mors for writing it, and continuing to share your knowledge and experience.
Always a pleasure Mors keep them comming when you can please thank you for your wisdom. I appreciate you!
Regardless of how much I think I know about a particular subject. I can watch one of your videos on said subject and still come away with something new. Your videos are truly appreciated! I will never get tired of listening to you teach. Happy birthday Mors.
Always good to see an upload from the man himself 👍and I don't want to hear this nonsense about "getting on in the years", you're looking as good as ever
I would hope that you continue CZcams videos with much desire, as you still can teach many! I have much knowledge, myself. But, at 55, I have more to learn. And, a desire to learn more. "Bo" in North Carolina USA. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND STILL DO!
Happy birthday Mors always good to see the godfather of bushcraft. Thanks for all you have done.
I spent hours chatting to mors around the camp fire, I hope he stays well. Age comes to us all
Appreciate your expertise Mr. Mors. Keeep making these videos as long as you can. This is information that needs to be captured and kept. Thank you.
Thank you Mors!. Legend !. All the best from Sandvik
happy birthday mors. the video is greatly appreciated
Mors, thanks for another video. I've always enjoyed and learned from them. Happy Birthday, and many more!..... Ken
Thank you for the video sir. It's an honor to get knowledge from the old guard. Much respect to you!
The orange Full Tang knife looked like it is the LT Wright Lagoom. I own the smaller model called the lt wright kamrat in o1. Thanks for everything youve taught me Mors. Hope this finds you well
it is difficult to explain how much I appreciate you and your work. Thank you for the video
Thank you so very much Mors! I've learned a great deal from you over the years, been watching, reading, and practicing what you've shared so generously for quite some time now. Sincerely thank you.
Mors is truly a tresure trove of knolege. He has likely forgot more than i will ever know.
Thanks, Mors. Keep reminding us about the essentials.
0:51 Mors's humour. Awesome!
Happy birthday Mors and thank you for sharing your vast knowlege.
Ha ha ha! On the subject of what makes a survival knife..."I'll take a stab at it." Nice pun.
I'm a subber of yours, No BS here of course. Great words of real wisdom that everyone purporting to be "experts", should listen to. Yep Scandi grind any one can keep it sharp. Thanks for posting.
So awesome to here from Mors! Always interesting and informative. Thank you!
The Man that wrote the book on BushCraft.
Thank you for sharing. Did a quick search for a black fabric with reflective coating, and found that Seattle Fabric makes one. Fairly expensive though.
Thanks mors. The man who knows real Bushcraft ☺
That's some great information,,,thanks for sharing this with me, I appreciate your time and knowledge.
Great video! Mors alwahs so interesting ! Good work on the B roll with the close up shots of the knives :)
Im really glad he named the knives
Thank you for sharing your skills that you have learned invented and still do to the test.
Great video thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Great video sir, You are very respected by many, me included. Please keep up the useful information . Thank you for all your info.
happy birthday Mors
... thanks for the video
Solid video, so much wisdom and passion. Love to see that yawara stick application again. Having the rod inside that cover/container to protect the rod from water and having some magnesium on top of that... seems to have some though put into the design. Other ferro rods with an integrated cover container seems too short for a big hand or doesn't have that solid look. Don't recall seeing other having magnesium on the surface of the cover (and the magnesium should not react to water). Clever. I also like that the grip is not tiny considering I might need the fire making when I am very frozen. Yes, some ferro rods have big grips, but far from all. Also clever to be able to have some vaselin cotton in that tiny integrated storage: I tend to want everything needed for a specific task in one place so when frozen and tired in the dark, there is less risk of messing up by not finding gear in a timely manner.
The tool showed in this channel is not easy to find these days or so it seems. Was that Robert Withrow Jr. or Senior? I do wonder if the tool is still sold somewhere.
Good video, beautiful collection!!!
Will there young fellow I'm new to this you tube thing at 74 years old I think I can still learn might night remember, but I can still learn, memory still great like a iron trap but short . all kidding aside sad to you couldn't make to your get together . As for the knives just pick up my first Scandi blade love it. But Let's face it here in the west in California I'm just a bowie guy since I was old enough to earn money and buy one ,I have never found anything I could not do with it I guess dad never told me I could not do that with that blade I just did it . So all this stuff I see on you tube all the new steels every body calling what I have shit steel is just nuts to me but that's how it is . . HAPPY TRAILS YOUNG MAN LATER .
The mind is most important. It can make any blade work. So your Bowie is just fine 😁.
happy bday Mors!
Happy birthday mors! Please keep making videos!!
Love the vid''
I bow to the master.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Go Karamat !!!
Love u Mors&all you’ve done
Good to see you Mors! I carry the Mora Black. You have given me some great ideas to arm it with an inner tube:) And being prone to slivers, adding tweezers is ideal. The Survival Blanket should be called a sheet. Had expected one to be a blanket that would cover me but it was only good as a wrap in the rain, bag got soaked... Ended up buying three larger ones and tossing them into my pack. Great video, thanks Mors!
Just wondering about getting a close up of your bandsaw knife from 30 years ago. Then if I ever come across one I'll know what I have:)
Mr. Kochansky, thank you sir!
Maybe five years later I’m still waiting on my skookum request … I got it and love it. Good things come to those who wait.
12:00 Seven because that is the perfect number in wrapping strands around a single middle strand, so sic plus one is seven. It’s a geometric thing in the way you make the lines.
Is Rod Garcia still in business or still alive ?
i see your point on the mylar bag if it was clear you would have an instant super shelter.
I bought a Condor bushlore on your advice. I discovered 3,000lb paracord that had been inaccurately described on Amazon, Walmart and even the manufacturers web site since it was first released a few years ago. Contacted them and I bought 100ft, plus 100ft 1,200lb paracord, just to see. Interesting rope. Take care young man, eh.
Great information! Thank you so much.
So much knowledge, many resources available from you, Thanks! I would want to know where to get the large magnesium ferro rod thing you have. I bet you laugh at all the hype surrounding large "chopper" or survival knives.
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this Channel. I am not a kid anymore but when I watch these videos I am in the woods again with my Camillus camping knife, beat up old fedorah, and making fires in the woods to make my cocoa, I was 10. May I ask does Mr. Korchanski have an opinion on the Leuku? and the Tom Brown Tracker? I am Not a kid anymore and I have plenty of knives, way too many, so this is not a 'what should I buy question, rather I am curious of his opinion. Thanks Ed
The nylon bonded Mylar martial is nor rear. It is used to make grow tents used in hydroponics. Google is your friend, just look up nylon Mylar and your find it.
Great that Mors agrees thatits silly to waste space of cutting edge near the handle. I never understood the point of choils,including small sharpening choils. What difference would it make even if you were unable to sharpen it right to the handle if you put a stupid choil there its worse than dull because now it catches everything you try to cut.
Thank you , sir .
Always good to hear it straight from the man. What was that magnesium cigar that held a watertight chamber in one end and a ferro rod in the other? Maybe the Mag Stryker System?
Mag Striker by SOL? No. Doesn't look close. I believe the old "cigar" item shown here can't be found for buying any more. Pretty unique item shown by Mors.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR, to many more yrs of robust health
Thanks Mors...sure appreciate you amigo!...atb,,,woods
Thanks, beautiful vid
That Sandvik steel Mora is the Mora no1. It's laminated steel. It was always the more expensive Mora together with the full tang (lapplander series) hunting knives. They also came with leather sheaths. Often they call the red painted handle Mora's no 1 but they are actually the budget ones called no 2.
That Jason Gustavson/Ben Piersma knife with the orange handle I really like. Too bad it's in O1 tool steel. Not the best for the climate I live in or visit.
I get excited everytime he says sloyed.
This is like Elvis doing a video.
Thanks Mors! By the way, ny father is 78 years old and still going strong.😊
You are one of thé best!
Could you please tell us your thoughts on Grohmann knives particularly #1,#3 and #4 survival? Did you ever use any of their products?Thank You .
Happy birthday sir great videos from mid coast Maine Waldoboro
Lovely man!!Much knowledge -- I am grateful!
Mors kohanski one of the legends !!
Wonder if bushcrafters on u tube hve listened 2 this ?? #maga #keepbushcraftreal
Thanks MORS
Is Mr. Kochański Polish? Just wondering because seems like a Polish name and I am looking for hunting tips in the area.
Search "201t nylon ripstop reflective fabric for photographic equipment" I think this is the stuff used in the photograph studio reflectors Mors is referring to. Or at least very close. It seems the lightest weight material I could find... Cheers
Mylar blanket does work, had to use it last winter when I fell out of my boat last.
Thanks for the video
Good prezentation! Thanks!
Long Live The King””
Thank you for sharing
Well done. And Happy Birthday 77 🎂
Thank you for sharing!
The orange handled puukko he pulls out at 6:17. Man.
Such a fine gentleman
GREAT STUFF, Love it !
Black rubberized spray paint turns any mylar black on one side, and stronger. Less snagging too.
At any rate...the Mors you know the less you carry!
Had to subscribe, I'm sure you have a few things to learn. May you RIP.
0:45 Mors humour!
