I know this is old, but this man is a master. Greatest cordage video ever.

Thanks for sharing this. Mors is an absolute legend and his teachings are going to live with me for the rest of my days.

Real wilderness survival techniques video. Most ‘survival’ instruction vids ridiculously assumes you have saws, hunting knives, paracord, tarp and at least a flint and steel....but that is really just survivalist camping fun. Real survival is washing up on a beach with nothing more than the clothes you had on when the boat sank. The three hardest skills you must master are making fire with just your surroundings, making a cutting tool from stone...and making cord to bind items together. Everything stems from those three skills.

How I wish I'd seen this when it was put up, not seven years later. Brilliant video.

WOW , I love watching this man . What a great Craftsman .

This is a spring summer job. In late autumn winter it won't peel like a jacket. It needs whacked and is very difficult to get off. It still cords up well but takes loads of small bits. It's been awhile since I made willow cord in winter time and I made a bow drill cord today 3 double play strands braided. God bless mors wherever he is now.

One of the best videos i have seen on making cordage! Thank you ☺

[@ecospider5]

It is amazing how good your cord looked at the end. Well done. And thank you for sharing your knowledge. This definitely increased my knowledge of making cord.

I need to get all his E books and DVDs downloads on my phone. All that knowledge right in my pocket out on the woods.

Currently viewing the third of your vids, I already think this channel is among the 3 best survival/bushcraft channels I've watched, incredible I didn't discover it earlier, after all this time on KZbin!

Great stuff! I really appreciate this information. The three strand cord was brilliant. We can use these methods with Imbira bark here in Brazil.

Awesome vid, Mors is a great teacher, I never new how to make cordage 3 strand.

[@lukeinkson]

Thankyou, that rolling technique is much faster than everything else I have seen so far!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Good demo.

[@oxygen9953]

That is simply impressive. I need to take one of these courses.

[@manvsfishmanitoba]

[@abcstardust]

Thank you for posting this awesome video!!!

[@vectorcinema]

Yes this gentleman is truly amazing...

[@QuantumMechanic_88]

You are sorely missed Mors .

[@hdrjunkie]

I like your rolling technique, it’s way faster than twisting each side separately. Thanks!
