............Always glad to see what everybody has for EDC....especially like the Green River knife...I have one just like it here on my computer table ...a very simple and reliable knife that has stood the test of time...........Good show...ATB.........

[@hawkknight4564]

Never feel bad about carrying the same stuff. It merely means that you have perfected/streamlined what you need on a day to day basis. That is the meaning of bushido. Peace and balance. I carry way more. And probably too much. But I do not find myself wanting. And I live in a very different environment.

[@JunkyardFox]

very true, thank you. stay tuend, i got an edc update coming next week

[@jimnordquist995]

Hand lotion good idea, maybe a little better, especially in colder weather, is Vaseline. This can be used on your hands and lips, also cheeks and ears to prevent frostbite. And as everybody knows,it's flammable

[@Wildwestwrangler]

Always wondered why old timers wiped sticks on their ears!!! Lol jk

[@JunkyardFox]

that it very true, great thinking

[@MegaMino92]

Good idea with the backup socks! I always carry some in my truck lol

[@BUZZKILLJRJR]

One thing i haven't really heard from any survivalists/ bushcrafters is any lighters be it bic primarily butane, is that in extremely cold weather the fuel can get very cold and actually not light very well or at all. So even if you have it in a case keep it closer to your body to keep the fuel warm not in your pack or outside pocket. Also if it does get to cold to light it and you need the fire now. You can shake it really hard and immediately try to stike it and it can light for a second or might stay lit. Found this out the hard way on a winter pack were it got too below zero.

[@ODST3826]

Your boots look like Rick Grimes Boots, all worn down and used properly. I love it! Great video too!

[@zulu5oscar765]

Lots of versatility in your kit. Chapstick has become a must carry for me also. From late fall to early spring keeps those lips from cracking and has a multitude of other uses.

[@RoadDogSteve]

Right on... What I like is everyone's EDC is different so good ideas from all... good video

[@FiveRustyNails]

I would also carry hand sanitiser and pocket pack of paper tissues

[@botjkjm]

Have you ever considered trying out your gear in a different climate? I’d definitely like to see how you would choose your gear for the winters up here in Alberta, Canada. Keep up the great work. Thanks.

[@mikee2482]

It’s nice that you edc clothes. I can’t imagine you getting very far without them.

[@JunkyardFox]

well this was an update for my regular viewers who know i live in the desert so my clothes had to be altered for this camping trip. didnt think people were gonna have such a problem with that.

[@PatrickDustman]

Great video, I really enjoyed watching, love that. SurvivalAustria

[@alexsshaves]

great clip enjoyed it very much I was a camper guy when I was younger but now that I have gotten to be 73 years old I can only watch young guy like you doing it ,enjoyed watching , ill be watching thanks Alex

[@JunkyardFox]

welcome along, alex! weve got plenty of cool new content coming soon, i hope you enjoy!

[@Texasbushboy]

Looks great James. Hope y’all had a blast

[@alexsshaves]

Just found your channel and liked it very much the one where you cooked the ground squirrel great job keep up the good work , you have a new follower Thanks Alex

[@ramshacklewizard]

You might consider swapping out the toothpick on your trekker for a Firefly Ferro Rod, they're tiny, but if you brace it along a stick it'll throw decent sparks :) I swapped mine out a year ago, can always make a toothpick, hard to carve a ferro rod though!

[@reddirt5489]

Great video James! I love these times.

[@eqlzr2]

Get yourself a good thickish, longish cashmere scarf. You can almost forget about the hat, the coat, gloves, etc. Almost. Anyway, you'll be amazed.

[@craigbetts1586]

good basic EDC for the colder months, nice to see the boots were repaired nothing like a good pair of boots their your friend and I also have a hat like yours very warm in winter I like how it covers the back of the neck (I also wear a Canadian military wool toque on not real cold days) good video James

[@Howlingdingobush]

Love the green river knife on the birch...

[@JunkyardFox]

man, this thin is a slicer!

[@hillbillynick2000]

That Green River is a solid choice, beautiful also! I've been checking out that Thrunite myself. Haven't committed yet though.

[@dphill96]

Im new to your channel, im catching up on all of your videos, love the channel since your right in the same neck of the desert as I am. 😉

[@albertreade7607]

Can you make a knife sharpening video , I know there are a lot on KZbin but will want to see from your perspective

[@Canadian_Craftsman]

Me three that's a good one like the idea

[@brokentoyland]

Looks like a really beautiful spot. I hope you were warm enough. That doesn't seem like enough insulation against the cold. At least you won't have to worry about centipedes when temps are this low lol. Man, I hate those things.

[@herrkeks8509]

When you do some work with your hand they need some lubrication. You give a machine some oil so why not give your hands some oil as well for lubrication and to prevent them from getting worn out like machines do when they don’t get enough oil :) (DAMN! This sounds weird!)

[@rickyvalenz6410]

Beautiful scenery. Great video. Nice to see that you actually use your EDC items from they're wear. Simple, effective, no bullshit system,...I like it! Cheers!

[@williamyoung369]

Thank you, that was entertaining. Great video bro. Enjoy.

[@herrkeks8509]

I have both, the Mora Garberg and the Kansbol, and they complement each other perfectly. If you are worried that the Kansbol might not take it with ease, then get the Garberg. If you don’t need a beefy knife like a Garberg just take the Kansbol. And if you want a cute knife... get s blue Eldris :D Such a cute little knife, but I don’t have it. The mentioned Moras are my only fixed blades (I only have 2).

[@nicholasramsey1988]

I have a mental picture of you in the hat carrying the bone saying” it rubs lotion on itself”😜 just kidding . Look forward to your videos of this camp. Hope your having a great year so far. I think your EDC is good maybe a bit redundant on a couple of items but, it’s all personal taste. Perhaps a bit of duct tape to help make bandages you have the handkerchief already. But, all in all very good stuff.

[@axerxes3981]

James.... good EDC video! Always nice to see what peoples are caring and what's new. Love the hat~~ If it really gets cold and the wind blows, you'll be thankful for it. Ifn you're really serious about the snow, for your own sake, get proper footwear. At the very least treat your cowboy boots with a good leather preservative and waterproofing coat. Nice kit. Thanks for sharing....... Ax

[@JunkyardFox]

im planning on getting some muck boots next time for winter camping

[@Wildwestwrangler]

You can buy a big box of fatwood from Walmart or Lowe's for like 8 dollars. I recommend opening it and looking at the pieces to make sure they are resinous though, as not all the boxes are of equal quality. I checked 2 boxes before I found one that was super full of pitch.

[@Wildwestwrangler]

It's the Duraflame brand. And it's ecologically safe and responsibly harvested!!!

[@randallkelley3599]

ThruNite are my fav lights, The most L for the money! bought a dozen small aaa ones and gave them away.

[@scottanthony1616]

Hello James, loved the Green River Hunter knife an your boot knife LT Right JX3, awesome video as well, stay safe. God bless you and your Family always.

[@bladecollector7]

You should try a maxpedition wallet they look new after years

[@barrybueler3356]

Love the exotic stuff I have the lighter and the match container with ice storm matches great pieces of gear and the blades a beauty😍

[@mattvan7089]

I always enjoy your videos I have bought a few things you have recommended like the hidden woodsman haversack I love it for EDC keep up the good work

[@HectorPlasmic]

Hey, I wanna see a more long term review on that lighter later on -- how long does it hold fluid, maintenance, etc. I'm interested in one but want more info. Thanks.

[@doctoordan]

New subscriber: I would have to say excellent choice on equipment. I personally would add Germex for hand sanitizer and fire starter ad well as some para cord (No I’m not a para cord addict) and a water bottle.

[@shanedavidson398]

Have you ever thought of switching out you trekker toothpick for a mini firesteel.

[@JimCrossan]

Just got my Nortiv8 snow boots today.. Worth every penny.. 😁

[@JunkyardFox]

nice! i jsut got some browning ones so no more freezing in cowboy boots for me lol

[@BushCraftBums]

Hey brother! Cracking video as always! I have the victorinox oht but the non serrated version..its my edc..and has served me well for years.. the green river hunter is such a great blade. Really ideal for food and game prep! It's my wife's go to in the camp or the kitchen! Thanks for sharing and have a blessed one brother

[@JunkyardFox]

appreciate the love! the trekker and green river hunter are knife classics.

[@deckard313]

Thanks for the update on ur EDC James!Have fun out there...

[@treerat6959]

James I'm glad you got around to trying out the green river camp knife this design and the Canadian belt knife are my two favorites to carry while hunting fishing or camp and trail. I have used both for camp chores , making primative traps and fish hook carving, batoning wood and what many people call bushcraft but I call woodscraft since I'm in America lol. I like your edc but being like you I live in a city and go to woods when I have the time. Here are a few things I see that you may want to add to your edc, compass,first aid kit, cordage , straw water purification, millbanks bag, water purification tabs, 4 3" steel drywall screws they can be used to tap into tree's for a water source.

[@JunkyardFox]

awesome tips! keep in mind i sill had my larger pack in my truck that had stuff like a roll od cordage, a water filter etc

[@treerat6959]

@@JunkyardFox James your one cool dude and you have a great channel I enjoy your video's from testing knives,cooking,bushcraft and your few apocalypse movies where great as well.

[@jsaenzMusic]

The boots and Spurs are eternally bad ass! Hope you enjoyed your winter camping bro!

[@MartinBrabi]

Love your backup Mora knife, great choice :)

[@dalemcmurray9708]

My friend get your self a first aid kit for your sack a life saver lol ps get that compass to thank you very much for the channel

[@PreparedWolf34]

Beautiful knife, looking forward to review. Instead of lotion in squeeze tube, try Duke Cannon “Bloody Knuckles” hand repair balm. The round container is much better for packing in a bag or pocket. Less likely to leak.

[@Wildwestwrangler]

Also O'keefs working hands is amazing

[@joaquin-jacknava2696]

Great video James. Love the new knife. Looking forward to new videos.

[@lakeerieprepper]

Great winter edc! Still have Trekkor on my to get list!!!! You inspired me to have the need to get one!!

[@nickhdeep6leatherworks338]

Get yourself a good pair of poly pro base layers. Light weight and keeps you warm.

[@johndewitt719]

Great video I recommend the Sven saw for good saw choice and you have a damn fine edc

[@christianwilliams4795]

O hey I've got one of those knives. Mine has a stabilized pecan wood scales. It really is a dedicated hunting knife. Mine really doesn't like messing around with wood. But when paired with a carving knife its decent.

[@jmh7884]

Have you ever thought about doing a subscriber campout great video

[@JunkyardFox]

ive never thought about it but yeah that would be cool

[@kenc8945]

Very nice and a honest video...keep it up.

[@JunkyardFox]

be sure to to check out this weeks 2 new videos for our updated edc setups

[@cillaloves2fish688]

Surprised ur not wearing ur Ferro rod anymore... but understandable. I don't wear mine either, but it's in my bag!

[@kgrimm5576]

Sheesh, for EDC I'd say your set : ) But if ya want more, maybe a small waterproof container for 1 of your backup lighters with a button compass and a few water pills for emergencies. Don't remember if ya showed a alloy/ss water container? I also put a dry bag in my pack. OK that's enough about waterproof stuff, lol, what can I say it's always cold, windy, and rainy here. (Northwest) Cool knife by the way, always liked that design, good all arounders.

[@JunkyardFox]

i do have a stainless cup in the havesack. good points!

[@robbevington1754]

Lotion ... EDC for the singly guys :)

[@solomonkane408]

I always carry a small tin of aquaphor instead of lip balm and lotion .

[@joshuacaviness9402]

Nice video. Always good to see your gear. I think you are the only person I've seen that keeps their gear fairly standard. One question, Why dont you carry a compass? As an avid outdoorsman I figured you would have one. I edc one daily in my edc bag but, I am out and about in the woods and cities so I keep it in my bag versus on my person. I also keep at least a sunto clipper on my person which is okay for gross navigation. otherwise you have a great setup there as always.

[@JunkyardFox]

i dont carry a compass often becuase in my deseert home, its easy to navigate using landmarks, the wide open spaces let you head towards that mountain, that building etc. and truthfully, im not very good at using one. ive been looking to find classes in naviation but havent found any locally.

[@petecwalina8789]

Enjoy your videos!

[@JunkyardFox]

glad you like our stuff!

[@tracerxrider]

Don’t be ashamed of taking care of your skin. It’s your primary barrier. Cracked skin can be painful and allow infection.

[@kellynoble6882]

One thing I noticed was no first aide I would put a little first aide pouch or box in there but looking great other than that

[@JunkyardFox]

i hava a larger pack in my truck since we were heading camping during this time, i have my first aid kit in there. it jsut wouldnt fit in this small haversack to be carried on my person daily. thanks for watching!

[@ThePhatWabbit]

dude where did you get that Green River knife from? I haven't been enjoying my garberg because I realized the scandi grind makes it a terrible slicer, and I've been looking into a flat grind knife just like this

[@JunkyardFox]

i went to a site called crazy crow trading post, its the upgraded model wth better handle and sheath

[@gibrigg]

Love it. Enjoy watching your vids!

[@prairiefirewildernessskills]

Good video man, loving the new bag.

[@kennethbrinkerhoff9245]

Question, if you live in the city why do you wear spurs?

[@theproudamerican178]

I always love your videos brother. Keep up the good work.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@msato8650]

Nothing wrong with hand lotion, having extreme dried cracked fingers in the woods not only unhygienic but also lead to infection. It’s also my EDC. To suggest carrying hand lotion and chap stick are unmanly just lame.

[@TACHILL]

Some nice gear bro. You should check out O'Keeffes tough hands its a lil more pricey but my hands are the same and ill tell ya that stuff works miracles! I carry a small ferro rod and mag rod on my keys... but i always have a lighter as well

[@TylerSnyder305]

If you want manly get O'Keefe's working hands, and balm shot lip balm ( looks like a shotgun cartridge )

[@SuperNeutrophil]

Hi James how come you don't use an LT GNS anymore?

[@JunkyardFox]

i sold it last year. i got separated and that cost me a ton of money, had to sell a lot of my stuff.

[@SuperNeutrophil]

Junkyard Fox I feel for you bro. Been there and done that. Would love to do tea with you sometime. My camping buddy passed away last year and am very much missing the outdoors, especially the desert. Love your videos especially your new winter experience. You should come up to Canada sometime, but now is not a good time :)

[@Trd2020]

Any videos on boots knifes? What kind? How to wear it?

[@thehikinlycan4415]

Yo James! I like your boots I have a similar pair. I am digging those spurs tho, how can I be down?

[@grizzlycountry1030]

Most guys carry chapstick of some sort these days. You can also get a solar phone charger that you can hang outside your pack and plug into your phone as you hike to charge.

[@denny45acp]

you dont carry a side arm? what gun do you hunt with?

[@JunkyardFox]

i currently dont have an edc handgun. my hunting firearms are a ruger mark3, ruger 10/22 rifle and a 12 gauge shotgun.

What pen are you carrying with that notepad?

[@JunkyardFox]

its a prismacolor pen33 from hobby lobby, usually used for drawing.

[@chibbi0382]

You should make that bone into a caveman club and do a primitive edc:)

[@JunkyardFox]

im gonna try to use it as a baton lol

What next, "my underwear for when its cold and for when its hot"? That is how you adopt to cold? my God, i don't adopt to cold, when its cold i just put a jacket on, can believe what happened to normal reviews about edc or such things, these days people who review things talk about as if people don't know how to dress any more, but one thing in common on most of all the "big" reviewers, knifes clean as child butt, never cut anything...

[@JunkyardFox]

lol this edc update is for my regular viewers who know i live in a desert environment. its funny how ignorant you come off, a chalenge you to watch one of my knife reviews, just one and tell me you can find a better, more through review on the internet. you wont.
