How to improvise a Pack Frame with a Swiss Army Knife - DIY Grass Rope Shoulder straps - Bushcraft

[@shaunmorrissey7313]

You could be having an abysmal day but Felix's enthusiasm would bring a huge smile to your face.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks for this wonderful compliment!

[@PhuongNguyenThi-rn8kr]

i love all the video of felix immler because you are very friendly and make me relax through the video,hope that you still make the video in the future

[@acawap]

I love this so much. I had a smile on my face through the whole video, watching you use your previous creations to finish up this project. If they had had you on Gilligan's Island, they would have been rescued in a week.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot for your positive feedback!

[@BCJerbs]

Me too!😀👍🏼

[@DmitryUstinov861]

Hello Felix! Very cool video! It is easy to make such a frame, but to make it convenient, you need to know the nuances. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

[@FelixImmler]

I agree! Thanks a lot for your kind comment!

[@QuantumMech_88]

The suspense about how to use the grass rope from your previous video is now over. Maybe the grass rope hammock is next. Thanks for another Excellent video and we all want the Felix Immler edition Swiss Army Knife.

[@FelixImmler]

me too... let this know Victorinox!!

Great! A comfortable pack frame is a joy to use, and you nailed it! 🤪 Well done

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you very much!

You're a wonderful advocate for both bushcraft and Victorinox. Gut gemacht, Herr Immler.

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you very much!

[@rquest3059]

Hello Felix, Your projects are always fun to watch and all made using a Swiss Army knife. The perfect bushcraft tool. Can't wait for the next product.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot Ron!!

Amazing project. It looks like it turned out way better than you could have imagined. I’m not surprised though. Your crafting skills with a SAK are top notch.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks you very much for your compliment!

[@WayPointSurvival]

That's so awesome, my friend!! You really knocked it out of the park with this one. So many good ideas that came together to make this excellent project.

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much dear James. I saw also your pack frame with the bendet frame. That's a fantastic work!

[@WayPointSurvival]

@@FelixImmler Thanks so much!

[@Olyphoto7]

Wow Felix! What an amazing project. Super clever, strong but not over engineered, very versatile, simply incredible, bravo 👏

@@FelixImmler seriously Mr.Felix...i spent alot of time by myself in the woods as a kid and was always making things with sticks and I don't know how many styles I came up with over the years...im thinking this one has the best of every point! This is why you are the king of the bushcraft my friend! 👍🏼🇨🇭🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏼

[@FelixImmler]

@@Waldhandwerk 1000 Dank! 🤗

[@tdumnxy]

Fantastic, one of your best videos. It seems like backpacks/rucksacks always used to use external frames (metal), then the more modern style of internal structure came along. And now, full circle back to a visible, separate frame. You have made it so well. I bought your English language book: Swiss Army Knife Whittling in the Wild and would recommend it thoroughly to any of your YT audience. Great stuff.

[@wesleysobik9137]

Always nice to see how enthusiastic you are and watching you explain it in an easy way to understand. Thanks Felix!

[@FelixImmler]

Wowww, thatks for this wonderful compliment!

Thank you very much!

[@galenmullenax4039]

We learn by doing and change if necessary. Excellent video SirMaster Felix for a comfortable Bushcraft backpack 🎒! Thank you and good to see you again! Love from 🇺🇸 to 🇨🇭.

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much my friend!

[@steve7625]

Felix I feel like you could do this in a way where we could easily follow along what you do. And I think this could be something parents do with their kids. Considering all your materials are free and all you need is a single tool (swiss army knife) I think it could be a fun educational tool to get people outside more.

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much for your wonderful words!

[@adamlentz2285]

Another good video. I appreciate the way you continue to show the versatility of the Swiss army knife. I enjoy seeing the many projects you do with it.

[@ВячеславСоколов-н8й]

This is awesome Felix!! Thank you so much for sharing this incredible DIY 🤗

[@stephangrobler5524]

Viele danke Felix for yet again a great friday vid. Great start to the weekend. I was finally able to source your book in South Africa. Have ordered a copy and in the spirit of things bought a victoriknox camp master. The last time I owned one was 30 years ago. Although I dont know it I will own it for long. I am planning to give it to my son. My intention is to use you book to teach my son knife safety and knife skills whilst doing great projects from the project genius himself. I would just like to let you know you are making a great positive impact on people through your channel. Thanks for your hard work and dedication!

[@FelixImmler]

Ohhhh, your comment makes me happy! Thank you so much!!

[@outdoor-buddy]

Gut gemacht Felix - nimmst du den dann im Oktober mit? :D

[@timsummers870]

I'm always impressed with your skills. I love it that you watch other people's channels and recreate their projects. That adds a lot to your channel. It always looks easy to do, but I'm sure people like me would struggle to make the things you do. I'm glad you use a Victorinox knife every time. I'm a big fan of their products.

[@sebastianhilden2207]

Ein immler filmchen ist immer eine gelungene abwechslung zum wahnsinn der in der welt passiert

[@dozzerg]

Watching this video makes me happy. Everything is so clear and Felix explains it so well! Fantastic job, Felix!

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks for this wonderful feedback!

[@garywood702]

Love it Felix! Always enjoy seeing folks come up with their own variations of the Roycroft pack frame. I made one many years ago and still have it kicking about the house someplace. As I recall when I cut the staves for mine I used a measurement of my armpit to my wrist for the two uprights and then from my elbow to the tips of my extended fingers for the cross bar. For the suspension harness I picked up a length of cotton lead rope for lunging horses at a local feed supply store. It's reasonably comfortable and you have the added bonus of having cotton material at hand for making char in the field for the next fire mentality. Just have to whip the ends of the cotton rope to keep it from unravelling. Great video Felix!

[@FelixImmler]

Hello Gary. Thanks a lot for your super interesting comment!

[@markirish7599]

[@VinlandAlchemist]

This is another great video! I like how the design is basic and simple, with no complications - perfect! 🙂 👍 Oh, and by the way! Did you happen to see Jon Gadget mention you in his KZbin video today? He said you are; " ...the font of all knowledge when it comes to Victorinox tips and tricks" - then he linked to your channel! Nice! Your videos are so wonderful, OTHER KZbinrs recommend you! I'm certainly not surprised, but I was still thrilled to see that! 😁

[@hortensialopez9296]

Really it’s look’s comfortable. And it’s easy to do. Thanks I try do it with the nephews. A interesting project for teenagers

[@proregiomoselle6622]

Wieder einmal genial! Es ist immer wieder eine große Freude, sich von Dir inspirieren zu lassen. :-)

[@paulandrulis4672]

Good job with this one. I have to say it is a great idea. As you said, it can be built using nothing but natural materials, which is a main goal of wilderness survival, not wasting materials. The only flaw I see is the grass rope waist belt, which would need constant retightening on a long or arduous hike. That could be cured with a toggle as well, by cutting one side slightly longer than necessary, lashing both ends of the rope, and using a toggle to secure together by untwisting a short section of the longer side and lashed in place. Untwist a section of shorter side and push toggle through, then release. Toggle needs to be slightly longer than the rope is wide and not very thick. I hope that helps.

[@P_RO_]

YES! And the grass rope is wide enough to act as padding where a thin rope would dig in. It should be very comfortable.

[@daveellis9301]

Nice one felix, good use of some hazel sticks and your grass rope very handy piece of kit 👍

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot Dave!

[@bruisedhelmet8819]

[@FelixImmler]

Haaa ha haa, thank you so much!

[@BCJerbs]

I made many many of these as a kid! They work so so good when your going a long ways and don't want to carry things with your hands! Absolutely awesome video and your build was way way better! Thanks so so much for sharing your knowledge and skills with us I very much appreciate you and hope your Canada/Independence day weekend is amazing and full of blessings! Stay awesome Mr.Felix I already look forward to next week's episode! Lol cheers, Kimmers and Jerbs 👍🏼🇨🇭🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏼

[@FelixImmler]

hello Kimmers, hello Jeremy, thanks a lot for your valuable support. Your comments make me happy. Soon i will do a KZbin break for some weeks. I hope that i will find out somme good ideas for the mini Fire steeels after this.

[@BCJerbs]

@@FelixImmler I look forward to see what you come up with! I've been thinking of ways to wear them and what one could craft up to do so...some sort of necklace or bracelets or anklets...I can't wait to see what you come up with for sure! 👍🏼🇨🇭🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏼

I previously joked that you could, if you tried, make parts for Volvo cars with just a SAK. I most humbly apologise...now realising it would be no real test for you ! Bravo !

[@backyardoutdoorsman8282]

Great enhancements to a popular bushcraft pack. I also enjoy using bank line for my projects and Yes, the shipping is the most expensive part of this purchase. But, it is worth every penny. I am also surprised that Victorinox has not made a Felix Immler edition SAK. This would be a great honor.👍🇨🇦

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you very much. Let them know this!

[@breaking_bear]

How was it hiking with this improved pack frame? I would have thought to put the cross bar on the opposite side so that it does not press into your back. But how was it hiking with it?

Great job, as always. For your lashings, I was thinking I might try the Canadian jam knot. Uses less cordage, and you can work it up SUPER tight. Do you know that one? If not, you'll love it. Fun pack to build when you're traveling light, but find unexpected treasures to bring home. Here in Northern Canada, I could even use Spruce roots split and peeled to lash it! Keep these great videos coming.
