After 9 years of constant use in all elements, variable setups, and nearly every day sleeping over the duration of those 9 years, my Sub7 finally failed. That is one outstanding product life for being constantly used.

I actually agree with you carried a 940 at work for the years. Got a mini crooked River two months ago I think I might like it better maybe.

I thought of this sort of system. Can a person sleep at an angle to create the flat sleep effect with this system? That’s what is troubling me of attempting it. Right now, I sleep on top of a military down bag I used since a kid. I never had compression problems, and I store it compressed to. Ya, I know, a big no no, but hey, I am not cold and I sleep in snow. Down on bottom, another bag on top, with half mattress inside it, a silk liner, and a wool blanket at hand in case.

This was made more than 9 years ago. I'm not sure when the BRS 3000t stoves came on the market, but they are lighter, smaller, and way less expensive than the MRS pocket rockets. I did a test boil with my BRS using 1 cup of water yesterday because I'm working on a blog article about alcohol stoves vs canister stoves. My rolling boil time with the BRS stove was around 1:50, so almost 15 seconds faster than your pocket rocket. Granted, elevation can make a difference, but that's impressive to me for a stove that weighs around 1 ounce and costs less than $20.

Looks like a tube of Ultramarine Swedish Toothpaste. Makes sense, too. It's how I carry my ....uh ... toothpaste.

What is the point of a lightweight stove, when there is no such thing as lightweight fuel?

Пара. 2 по резу продуктов конечно же лучше . В остольном 940 круче , размер , прочность , замок , удобство в руке как в открытом так и сложенном положении . Я предпочитаю 940 но в России популярнее пара2

Keep in mind, a Zippo can run on anything that lights with a spark and will wick.

Great video! I’m a benchmade man but I got my first spyderco recently the micarta pm2 in cruwear. I thank you for your non bias attitude you are fair. And thank you for your encouraging word pastor. God bless.

“If you’re feelin frisky” 😂

No reason to use the whole tab, though. The tabs are also great for a quick-light option to use sticks as fuel. Just a snip of tab will carry you from match to wood fire. Also, you didn’t review the store bought alcohol stoves? Which both have a snuffer and a seal-tight lif

Hip flexors my man hit those for you 50+ gentleman

Dude, the offsprey poco ag does have a bottle holder right on the front right pack strap. Or atleast ours does. It’s about the size of a baby bottle, but it also has side pockets for water bottles. The offsprey one also helps keep bugs off baby with the mesh sides. And I swear I don’t work for them.

This is a joke right??? You ‘re probably one of those clowns that likes to laugh at other people’s misfortunes

Have you glued them eyebrows on ?

Coming here 9 years after the fact. Still a great idea. Legend, thank you, brother. Hope you're out there having fun wherever you are!

All is better fuel cotton, in 70s work 3 day, in this day 10 day s, have zorro cartridge for Zippo lighter have cvover for chimney.

I'm just now seeing this, but I have one and absolutely love it. If you haven't done it already, wrap the handle, just half of it, you'll love it even more. I did mine 2 days after owning it. Way better

Is this a good option to sleep without a tent? just out in the open.

Also a simple towel if it is dry.

Neck knives are hard to get right, this one seems a good balance between been lightweight & small but actually still usable.

I just ordered an Osborne 940, can't wait to hold it in my hand and see what the hype's about

A 5-xl orange cotton T shirt is better.

Too bad you stopped putting out videos. Your message is important. Blessings

I prefer the PM2, the 940 is too forward/blade heavy for me. Not as well balanced as the Spyderco.

I also have these traditional sirens where i live and they are coming from a local fire station 😂.... plus a train!

Its vrazy how picky you knife fiys are!lol your all need a fidget spinner..a knife is a tool...who cares how it opens...or feels in your hands!or all the other silly things tou guys comain about!

Yeah it sucks when you lose your favorite knife. Lost my 940 took me 3 years to pull the trigger on another 940. Went threw so many knives till i realized. 940 is simply elite.

I’ve got the Sabre grind too and I absolutely love it! Best all around field knife I had. Most of my knives are scandi so I just got this for something different and I highly recommend the Sabre grind for anyone think about this knife. Amazing performance.

Thank you so much, now my Zippo becomes survival

Something tells me to get a spyderco for the city, and a benchmade when I go out in the bush.

The Esbit. Well, I started when I was in The scout's in england. The stove was made for the Forces. MRI packs. And as I am 71 now. They have been around me some time 😅😅😅. Great show of how the difference between the burners . The gas one can slow down on heat when used in the snow. So longer time to heat up things.

What about weighing up the Omega spring? -That for me is a No sale.

Having the Para 2 it is a great cutter. It sounds like it you want to bushcraft and do things you are not supposed to do with a knife get the 940.

I think your right. Just be nice to people. God has nothing to do with it.

EDC 👑 is the 940. Spyderco makes good knives though not great but good

I'd be afraid antisemitic liberal girls with HPV, herpes, and hat-size IQ's would start flirting with me.

The gods didn’t give us claws to slash, rip, and tear, that’s why man made knives. I carry one of those 5.5inch bladed Ti Lites, and boy am I ready to defend myself if need be! My God given right to self defense doesn’t care for anyone’s feelings. Carry something with reach so that there’s no doubt if the time to act ever arises

I love my MSR rocket stove and I also have several denatured alcohol stoves. I love them! They are the best.

But here's another issue with those tablets. You can always use them as fire starters for your campfire and in 5 to 6 minutes they'll be burned up and they'll get you a good campfire going. About all they're good for they make terrible nasty marks on the bottom of your pants that you have to scrub off.

If you buy the Coughlin fuel tabs. They don't stink. But you're right, the Esbits do have a funky order.

The tip is an apple to oranges comparison. The tips are designed for different uses. The Benchmade is thicker and reinforced so would be stronger. The Spyderco will penetrate so much easier, it's almost like a needle so of course will be more fragile. That said I agree with @James-ke5sx.... neither of these tools are pry bars or drills. My edc MUST be useable for self defense, and stabbing is way more effective than cutting in that application. Thanks for the comparison: for a self defense application I believe the Spyderco will win out as the bigger handle with contour and g-10 will stay in hand much better than the straight aluminum handle on the Benchmade!

Thanks for the review. More importantly, thank you for the encouragement from Scripture. I sure needed that today. Been looking at the GNS for some time. Will make the purchase someday. I hear people talk of purchases second hand or used. I’ve never been able to find any camping/bushcraft items second hand anywhere. If I do see things for sale, they are ready for the trash or people put their special mark up price on them. Once again, thanks for the encouragement!

940 or para 3 for me..don't carry a smaller blade I'm minimalist

The problem with the lansky is that the angle holes are just reference. With most of my knives, the angle holes are 4 to 6 degrees off. To sharpen my 940 at a true 20, i have to have the rod in the 25-degree hole. So these knives with the 20-degree angle you like so much are probably actually 16 or 17. I discovered this with my spyderco lil native when i was just getting into higher end knives and sharpening. I sharpened it in the 17 hole, and my bevel was just huge, so i got an angel cube, and sure enough, no matter how i clamped it, it was at 11 and 12 degrees. But there's no way to compensate bc if i go to the 20 hole, then the angle is 15, and if i went to 25, it was 20. There's no real way of getting a 17 with thag knife.I use my kme or free hand now, but i thought I'd point it out. Maybe you can get an angle cube and check for yourself

I love you too brother before god. Thanks for your encouraging words. <3

I appreciate the review I just picked one up from a pawnshop near me for like 20 bucks brand new, I’m hoping to go tested the next week or weekend after.

I have several, in different patterns. Even though made from cotton it still works as a winter scarf. Great video thank you 😊

Odd comparison. They're 2 completely different knives all around. Both among my favorites for 2 very different reasons.

For blades, I carry a Gerber MP600 multi tool, and cold steel G10 Ti lite 6 inch clip point. Alternatively, I will carry a Victorinox Rucksack instead of the MP600. I like having a big fighting knife on me, and will always have one in the system.
