Thank you guys, for making this video... Thank you Matt for answering the question about why you carry a larger knife. So many people in the bushcraft world preach about the smaller, 4-5" blade, "bushcraft" knife. I've even heard the comment, "the bigger the knife, the bigger the fool", or the connection of a large knife to Rambo, etc... Matt's explanation makes perfect sense to me, and it's obvious to all he's no fool. His skill with both a large knife, and a small stone flake are both exceptional. I understand Dave Holladay also prefers a larger knife, and Ryan Gill from Hunt Primitive uses a large knife to chop out primitive bow staves. So there is definitely merit to carrying a large knife. I have and use both a large Condor Parang and a smaller Helle Harding Scandi knife and I love using both of them. Tyler, thanks for making this video happen. Peace to you guys from Alaska!

Circle cliffs can get precarious at times, but worst comes to worst you can generally see long canyon from any elevated position, and maybe get a ride to town in a day or two. Love the shots of moki canyon, one of my favorites, even though lamp stand road sucks sometimes, definitely got the sagebrush scratches on my car to prove it

While I like the idea of less is more and allowing that you're going slow to demonstrate this technique, there is nothing like stuffing you gear quickly into a top loading pack, closing it up, sling it on your back and go.

I don’t disagree with that at all. The real value here comes from the knowledge or tools gained with every individual knot, every individual strap every individual technique. You can choose to use it all as a system or you can use each skill individually for different applications.

Love it! I'm following now as it seems I'm in the same boat now as you were when you first picked up your 1079. I picked mine up about a month ago and have started the process of scrapping all the useless additional military steel that those bad boys are loaded down with. I still want to see what aircraft can air lift one of those period, let alone from the lift points on those trucks. lol I'll be following for suggestions and ideas. And as you stated, the learning curve is huge and I have been a bit overwhelmed with the level of overbuild the military put into these. However, I know at the end of the day it'll be well worth the trouble and eventually it'll be second hat to do basic PM. What fun is life without continually challenging yourself and pushing the limits?! Congrats again on the purchase. Looking forward to future videos!

When laying out the uprights and horizontal pieces, it seems that even a shallow notch in the bottom of the uprights would be a good idea. It puts the vertical stresses, both upwards and downwards, of a load to wood on wood. Otherwise, the smoothened wood pieces are slippery on each other. The lashing bears all the load and stress. Notches could be the load bearing method, and the lashing’s job would be reduced. Just a thought, Courtesy of Half Vast Flying
@alliswell-pb9vo3 ай бұрын
That is true. However, I think this was considered by the creators but did not make it into the designs. I think it will be an overkill as if you are not using jam knots to lash the frame, you essentially have the full strength of the cordage (a little bit less) supporting each connection. This, coupled with the fact that it is a triangle and the weight is attached to all three sticks, means that there are few situations where a stronger attachment is demanded. Back in the day scaffolds are lashed together(although their structure is better at distributing the weight) Your solution would be a little bit hard to execute due to the difficulty in carving the notches. The notches are not hard to carve, but making all of them flush would be quite hard to get right on the first time(both in terms of depth and angle) However, if I were to construct one for heavy load or permanent use, I would use the notches in addition to proper expansive lashes.

Oh my goodness, how did I miss this video?! First off, Godspeed Mors. You influenced SO many folks. Your legacy lives on. Rod! So good to actually see you! I'm the guy who ran that private forum. I was so happy when you joined. I was bummed that Dan snagged the Skookum for that article. I tried to get it but Steve Dick said Dan already asked for it. I've used your knives many many times over the years, including the smaller carvers. They have all held up well although I'm careful about prying with the first Skookum because I got one of the early ones that was pinned a bit back from the choil. Anyway, what a blast to actually see you in this video and listen to the story behind the Skookum. You and Mors blazed a trail there. Back in the day, we were BEGGING for full tang scandi knives like the Woodlore and now everyone makes them. The Skookum, though, took it to another level! Take care!
