      After all those tests and reviews
      i wonder what your survival axe design would look like...
      the main problem with those survival cards seems to be either the lack of proper weight or the saw failing to properly build a handle in the first place...

    Great entertainment, Cody, as always. In fairness, though, as a lifetime camper who's occasionally "Left Home Without it," I gotta say that gimmick would've come in handy a few times. Beats the pucky out of a river rock, as you suggested. Like the old saw: "What's the best carry gun; the one you have on you!" Few would seriously expect a wallet survival tool to compare, favorably, to a woodland hatchet.

I told him that its important to do things in life you love to do, yet one needs to eat and that costs money,, so maybe he should paint what people would be willing to buy..... So he started painting artwork that appealed to the mass.... he was successful in this financially as people enjoyed his art in that fashion. I see that your numbers of viewers increase when you have videos that interest the Mass... I can see you have figured that out tho...

    I don't think such a tool exists that can replace the axe/knife/saw combination, but I sure do enjoy watching these type of videos. Thanks for sharing it with us!

    I don't think the wallet axe stuck in the tree or the target was one thing that is oftentimes not thought of is that in order for a axe to stick into a item it also needs to be well balanced to work properly @Wranglerstar

    iunno where this channel came from and know absolutely jack about survival, but the absolute sarcastic delivery at 4:01 of "Are you guys as optimistic as I am?" and just glancing back down killed me. subbed.
    E: due to said lack of experience in outdoor work in general, i think as for the ending it'd be super interesting to do those kinda niche but always interesting videos of trying to get "the most" you can out of those crappy and cheap survival kits on amazon that i've seen floating around!

  • @davep.7099
    @davep.7099 Před 3 lety

    I'm thinking a pet bushcraft beaver. It would cut would faster, good source of heat, can be thrown to distract/scare/feed as needed, can be converted into an emergency meal and a nice cap. Downside is, it will not fit in your wallet.

    @papaduck2443 Před 3 lety

    Cody, there is 1 small tool I take into the wild eveytime that is an absolute life saver and that is a Leatherman tool with a saw. I have used this extensively and while it doesnt fit in your wallet it is very small and has multiple life saving tools in 1 package. Of course I also have my GB small forest axe with me as well and that combination makes survival much more manageable. Love the video brother! God bless you and your family! Keep up the great work!

  • @cullyomeara6918
    @cullyomeara6918 Před 3 lety +1

    Hey, thanks for this video. I thought this one was perhaps a little more useful than the klax as the zip ties seemed more secure than the twist lock mechanism on the klax. But, apparently not by much. And, I didn't even think about the lack of weight in it being a pretty big usability issue for a hatchet. Even one of the heavier "micro axes" seen like a much better packable option than any of these novelties. Thanks again.

    From what little skill I possess in woodcraft, I would say the only "all-in-one" survival tool is proper knowledge; knowing what to bring for the specific situation, and arriving fully prepared.

  • @rc8770
    @rc8770 Před 3 lety

    I got one of these as a gift from a well meaning friend. filed set into the saw and hardened the cutting edge. Also put an edge on the broad head. It’s still not a go to tool but for something to always have in your wallet it’s not bad for 20 bucks.

    @Warpfield Před 3 lety

    Consider, if that was your only tool in a survival situation, (i.e. no knife or saw), you could use the axe blade to split the end of the stick just deep enough to contain the head. Then use your paracord, because we all carry that stuff, to bind it tightly to the stick.

  • @garyliu6589

    The saw edge is use to make a handle and to cut a slot to fix the blade. Cut the slot half way tru and tie with snare wire from your sos box.

    I watch a lot of gardening channels, and one common gripe they all share, is how these flashy, gimmicky videos “Top ten craaazy food hacks that will CHANGE your life”, etc., always get tens of millions of views, while theirs, focused on substantive knowledge that actually works, gets small fractions of that. Marketing works. And ooh man, there’s no end to gimmicky “survival” tools like this!
    Of course, if you lower your standards, you attract those with lower standards. There’s more of them, and they will bring views, ad rev, etc., but it’s a devil’s bargain ;)

  • @miketheskepticalone6285

    For a $20, never-left-behind-'cause-you-forgot-you-have-it-in-your-wallet-backup, I think it did pretty well. For one thing, I don't tend to carry cable ties ... but I do tend to carry wire. Lashing the axe and spearpoint to the handle with wire, especially if you sniped it snug, would have been at least as strong, and would have added weight to the working end. Likely would have made it a bit more effective. I have to agree with you about the "saw" they usually include on these sort of things, though ... of course, with a bit of time, a good vise and a decent set of files, that usually isn't that hard to fix.
