Cool, can't wait to watch your new video.

[@BUZZKILLJRJR]

This happened to me on a two week backpacking trip this little rodent called pikas chewed the strap on. My backpack because of the salt in my sweat I guess so I had to sew my strap back onto the bag. so I heated a fish hook in the the camp fire bent it straight smoothed it on a flat rock and used it to sew my shoulder straps back on mine and both of my friend bag he lost two. I still have the bag today. And I use the special fishing line I had was carbon fiber very very strong and thin fish line to fix our bags. We also had a freak snowstorm come in and had to sleep in a cave hahaha it was quite the adventure that test our skills and creativity. Love your show brother!

[@QuantumPyrite_88.9]

Identifying usable plants during wintertime is a seriously great skill . Thanks again Master Felix.

[@FelixImmler]

Stining nettles are easy to identify if the seeds and sometimes are still dry leaves on the pole

[@speedygonzales9993]

Incredible, Felix. Just bloody INCREDIBLE! 👍👍👍

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks you so much!!

[@vallhallamedia3161]

Having made thread from nettles before, I just want to take a moment to congratulate your brilliant handiwork you did in this video, such a well made example!

[@FelixImmler]

Wowww, your comment makes me happy. Thanks a lot!

[@andrewsackville-west1609]

Yeah, this is really nice. Such consistent nettle fiber thread! Nice job!

[@willikebari5478]

Lieber Felix, das liebe ich so an deinen Videos, dass du uns immer wieder zeigst, wie man sich mit einem Victorinox und dem was man in der Natur findet, auf einfache Weise helfen kann.👍👍👍 Wer weiß heute schon noch, dass Brennnesselfasern sich hervorragend als Schnüre eignen. Super, dass du dieses alte Wissen aufgreifst und weiter gibst! Danke dafür!👍👍👍 Auch wie man eine (Not-) Nadel aus den (richtigen) Dornen herstellt, weiß heutzutage kaum mehr jemand. Ganz liebe Grüße aus Wels/Oberösterreich nach St. Gallen und ein schönes Wochenende Dir und Deiner Familie!

[@Aco747lyte]

I've used one of my SAKs to do just what you demonstrated. These multitools are incredibly versatile; I don't know what I'd have done without mine. Many thanks Felix. Again, you raise the banner for these fantastic SAKs! What you did was just awesome! Best of all you inspire us to get the very best out of this gear. Stay safe, buddy! *Hugs* Wendi

[@FelixImmler]

Wowww, you comment makes me happy! Thank you Wendi

[@Aco747lyte]

@@FelixImmler Most of these 'skinny' barks are flammable: beech, silver birch and even maple tree sap being surprisingly flammable! Most interesting is the thin bark of the Arolla pine, and a plant botanically named 'Acacia species'. Molly said even bamboo, and she also said another plant - Broom whose botanical name of Cytisus - also is flammable.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Another excellent video, my friend! I really enjoy these bushcraft how-to tips!

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much my friend!

[@clintonroushff7068]

This looks beyond what my patience will allow. Lol Take care Felix

🤣🤣🤣

[@loverboy4515]

Felix u should start your own Swizz Army knife company I bet u make best of the multi tools for verious scenarios

[@FelixImmler]

That would be a cool project!! 😁😁

[@lisuk66]

👋🔥✌️Hello, Felix - Mr VixMan! Thank's a lot 👍👍👍!

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks for watching!

[@BCJerbs]

Your patience and skill with making that cordage with the stinging nettle is something else I tell you Mr.Felix...i need and want to learn that skill of making that! So so awesome! Thank you again! Cheers, Jerbs 👏🤓

[@FelixImmler]

Hi Jeremy... that's easy to learn...kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmSskJiimpuIo9U

[@BCJerbs]

@@FelixImmler I have an abundance of cedars and did make some with the inner barks...but I would love to try the stinging nettle as that is alot my fine and needs more skill!

[@SimpleEarthSelfReliance]

Well said. I think the cordage is best made "before needed", at a campfire while sipping on a beer or whiskey. Then keep in storage, more or less like charred cloth, made before the time. I don't think I have the patience to do it on the spot 🥸

[@mikewilliams1921]

Very ingenious and handy to add a tool that everyone will have a chance to use at some point in time . Thanks for sharing. Very informative and you keep your videos very interesting.

[@SimpleEarthSelfReliance]

Fantastic Felix. This is real bushcraft, doing useful things that really happens out there. I don't have nettles, but I think maybe sunn hemp or hemp would work for the fibres? mmmm - keep posting! Love your stuff.

[@FelixImmler]

Yes of course.... there are a lot of different fibres which works too

[@wolfman9913]

Felix you are THE BEST!!!😉👍😊LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS!!😊 KEEP EM COMING!!😊👍

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much!!

[@Cellottia]

That's the neatest, finest nettle cordage/ yarn thread I've seen demonstrated on YT: well done! Do you spend hours and hours practising making it, or what?! I'm a proud owner of SAK and Ive learned a lot about how I can use it from your channel - or rather, from you. Thank you very much. I love how you're always so happy and positive, too. Tchüss!

A wonderful project, but I feel you could help a novice like me with more description of what you are doing. The camera doesn't always show the details. I couldn't make cordage, nor identify dry nettles from this. If I were with you in person I would ask questions... More verbal description please 🙏🏻

[@indyoutsider]

Excellent Felix.. you are so good with your hands. I've never done this before, I should practice it. thank you for the video and your knowledge, and I'll catch you on the next video. thank you so much take care.

As a scraper, the butt of the saw works very well. Moreover, the knife may not be very sharp, and then it does not work well as a scraper. Thanks for the video and helpful information👍👍👍

Thanks a lot!

[@TerryC69]

Hi Felix! I had my doubts about the viability of the dried stinging nettles fibers, but you showed me how! I was thinking, while you were sewing, how nice a fine coat of wax, on the cordage, would be in terms of making the stitch last longer and keeping the braid tight. Great video, sir!
