Great! Thanks!

Do you have a video going over an INCH type of bag where we would need it incase of nuclear winter etc? With ww3 possibilities my family and I would love to have that sense of security from an end all be all bag if there ever was nuclear war.

That particular fruit may have been slightly unripe, resulting in a somewhat astringent flavor and a greener appearance. Ideally, these fruits should be consumed once they have naturally fallen from the vine, as this indicates optimal ripeness and readiness for consumption.😁👍

There is absolutely no way one would find those unripe seeds to be sweet, the sugary gelatinous pulp has not even begun to form around the clearly immature seeds in this fruit. Even once the pulp has formed, the fruit still must mature and produce sugars before being palatable. Having eaten an early passion fruit numerous times, those seeds probably tasted like watered down cucumber at best.

That is far far far away from being ripe. Should not ever need a knife to liberate the internal fruit sac either. A simple pinch and crack to the skin and it easily peels off when ripe

How the heck are there only 300k subs, this is probably the best presentation on this topic anywhere.

It’s really sad you have to clarify that you have to take the lid off. I hope no one ever complained about not getting any water in their bottle while the lid was on🤷‍♂️

So, let’s see this all together, and total weight, because I’m thinking all this steel and waxed canvas is gonna be HEAVY, and in a survival situation that’s not what you want.

I make tea out of the husks... kills parasites.

Great explanation. Very much appreciate your review.

If it gets to the point that everyone is running to the forest to build a cabin...it will be really crowded

Thank you. ❤🔫

Well I’m just passing thru, but had to add for optional snare material I was at Walmart looking for leader wire for fishing saltwater , it was solid wire stiff in a coil and it was expensive for the amount they gave ya , I accidentally found what they call beading wire over in the craft section , it thin multi strand stainless steel wire that’s plastic coated and is really strong and it’s cheap like 4-5 bucks for a small spool ,it can be tied in a knot like fishing line I’ve caught a 5’ ft black tip shark on it and he couldn’t chew thru it , it could be a item ya might be interested in for your survival pack 🤔

MJG and 8 ball

It doesn't look ripe. I think it's suppose to be kind of yellow.

FUCKIMG LOVE YA MATE

I'm really really grateful for this video thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Do you have any thoughts on the Vietnam era solid green ponchos compared to the modern camo versions? I acquired two of the older ones at a recent estate sale. Their label stamp said their manufacturer was Electro Plastic Fabrics, June, 1961. They seem a little thicker and heavier than today's (nylon??) ponchos. I'm thinking this would equal better waterproofing; not sure about durability and rip resistance, though.

i haven't watched the entire video and yet I can finally see someone actually competent trying to teach about survival

You should show how to do a poncho hammock.

I can tell he doesn't live somewhere, where it ever gets cold. His shelter is a mid summer only kit for most

What size type thread do you prefer to use?

Helpful info, and hey that tune at the end is pretty cool too. Appreciated Brother.

What are you talking about dude! This fruit will ripen as any other and should be eaten then. This is one of the most delicious hardy fruits you will encounter in and around my zone 6 area. Most closely resembling the taste of green apple jolly ranchers to my palette. When ripe they will easily detach from the plant if slightly tugged at.

Hell I carry a flint knapping kit with me at all times, a moose antler billet, multiple types of hammer stones, whitetail deer antler tines, and a cheater copper rod flaking tool! Lol

Great review! My question is why you chose the Carbon versus the SS? I plan on buying one, but I'm not sure which version to choose. Basically using the knife for camping, hiking, food prep. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for a great video! I did not know about the thumb assist for the smaller rods, game changer for me! I just thought the smaller were lower quality, because they performed worse with knife =p

I have a stainless steel one, and I was not initially thrilled with it. Found it a tad heavy and I did not like the weight distribution (I tend to slightly favor forward weighted knives), or how the handle tapers down forward. Having used it a bit I've warmed up to it some, though it took me a while. I'm still thinking through on how to use it. It's certainly a good tool.

Thank you for both videos! Awesome!

I bought a ghillie suit from a yard sale. When i tried it on I thought to myself, great im a walking birds nest (fire tinder)😂

If you rub your finger at the side of your nose next to your nostril where it meets your cheek or behind your ear you'll get a little bit of oil from your skin. Rub that on he top of your spindle to help 'grease' it & reduce friction as well

I mean if you've ever used or cleaned out an old ZIPPO with a stuck flint in the tube?!😆 Good God folks, we really got sold a bill of goods when we swallowed the " indestructible firesteel" marketing BS didn't we?

What kind of lash should I use?

GREAT common sense information, cuts through the BS.

How you get the jute so wavy lol

Thanks man I made a pair about 4 years ago watching this video it is not that bad thanks so much man I am 13 now

People who buy modern Kephart knives rarely understand that this was a food processing knife first and foremost. Kephart would have used his pocket knife for wood carving. He processed veggies and meat/game/fish with his sheath knife. Most modern "outdoorsmen" live off processed food. Living off the land and from scratch cooking is something thy are more or less clueless about. Take care and God bless.

Amateur... My bug out bag has two long cycle boating batteries, with AC, heating, and air fryer and an inflatable boat.

I purchased mine before watching this particular video. I also made the decision to get it with the leather sheath. I went and got a dangler from Casstrom, for 20 some odd bucks as well. I have zero doubts I'll be anything but thrilled with this knife. Great video as well.

May Pops are a unique and beautiful fruit. I like them. The incredible flowers are the Tennessee State Wildflower.

Awesome video. Goes to show you dont need a ridiculously large and heavy 40-60 litre pack in order to survive indefinitely. 20-30 liters is just fine! 1000x more comfortable as well!

That wasn't batoning. That was gentle touching and lil' tapping. Debate about should i baton or not? See if i care outdoor hipsters opinions. If it works, that's how i do it.

Hi Josh, how's things? Regarding our preference for 'naked' high carbon steel knives, you say that they are good for using for 'flint n steel' fire starting; I've tried this and yes, you can produce a spark but, in my experience, it is much harder to get sparks and they are weaker because, although it's high carbon, it is tempered rather than just hardened. Wouldn't it be better to just make sure that you have a proper steel striker with you, seeing as they are small and can be carried in your pocket, clipped to your belt or hung yound your neck? Of course, I see the point you're making, that you may not have a steel with you, but isn't this what Survival EDC is all about? I say this because, personally, I prefer stainless steel since you don't have to worry about rust.

I would love to hear what this community can come up with for someone like me who is a over the road truck driver? What bag should I build to get to ....well who knows im in all types of environments and never no where im going to be.

Im one to be prepared for everything... so my pockets are already heavy with gear. Then in my previous pack list, redundancy and non-essentials were a real issue. I've slimmed down a lot and realized that with my skills, I do not need as much gear. The weight was going to make things worse, more so than what the items were going to provide to make things better. Light and simple means agility and endurance.

What kind of tarp do you have set up in the background?

Maybe some brush on rubber coating that's dyed in drab color might work better for those areas

I don't think the newer generation will understand any of this.

How can you tell when the filter is spent and no longer filtering as it should?
