Profile of Dave Canterbury

[@tberkoff]

Dave is the REAL deal. He lives what he preaches on a daily basis, unlike so many of the self-proclaimed "outdoor experts" that are all over the TV and YT these days. I was sad to see him leave Dual Survivor because he was the best part of that show. I'll never forget the episodes when he made a hammock and snow shoes from scratch. The man has some amazing skills.

[@juansimon5802]

he was fired from the show lying about being a ranger and other lies

[@woodstrekker6345]

I'm proud to be a long time student of Dave. I've learned so much..

[@mrbluesteen]

Me to!

[@jamesbarnes7045]

Does Dave smoke cigarettes? He sure is hell does have a nicotine looking mustache

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

Dave's is one of the wise fathers on YT bush community and beyond. If you need answers just flick through his videos and i promise they are there. Man, i wish we had more legends like this. Keep it up brother. Regards from Australia.

[@salvagemonster3612]

There is no such thing.

[@backtothebasics9366]

But he only promotes brand names that pays him... what happened to sharing and teaching the way of the woods.

[@IrishmanNH]

He's one of the first people I watched on KZbin when it came to outdoor survival and primitive teachings, he's always had my respect and I've learned a lot.

[@moorshound3243]

Check out MCQ bushcraft he's also gold dust when it comes to the woods.

[@kan-zee]

A true Bushcraft TITAN...mr Canterbury. Well done

[@redbeard6606]

[@thataintnomoonsucka]

[@garyhouston113]

Ive been into woodcrafting for almost 50 years.Its been a big part of my life.I never ran across anyone that knows his stuff like Dave.He is the real deal and a great teacher.Much respect.

[@slidelockpodcast]

I can feel the passion resonating! Thank you for all that you do and hope I can absorb a fraction of the knowledge and passion you exhibit.

[@MrJoeyBoombotz]

Dave is a good man because they can't keep him down. God Bless you and your family, Dave. I have enjoyed you for 10 years here on YT. Hopefully, many more to come.

[@dallassullivan638]

i grew up in south Alabama. as kids we played in the woods. we walked for miles back into the woods behind the house. we built shelters and tipis just for fun. we learned to build fires the proper way out of trial error. its good to see someone teaching others this knowledge. i have watched countless videos of yours to learn more than what i already knew or learn a better way. aslo you give the reason or reasons behind each skill or technique. thank you for passing it on.

[@woodstrekker6345]

Dave is the best. Great man. Great teacher. So glad he passes his skills on to us.

[@stevehering8069]

Good stuff Dave you have my respect for what it's worth thanks

[@syabushcraft3417]

I have learned so much from him. The skills he teaches are more important than people realize, but the main thing is that he is a great teacher. A Common Man.

[@adriantyler6911]

Dave is one driven guy. Never sits still for a minute. A true inspiration.

[@jeffreyhill3960]

One of my life hero’s. There are many but Dave is one of the tops. Can’t actually put one on the top cause there are so many excellent teachers out there. Thanks Dave for all the expertise……..

[@phillipg7315]

Dave’s one of the best teachers in this field, doesn’t over complicate things with unnecessary fluff.

[@Sm-ne8ff]

I really appreciate all you share . Thanks Dave

[@warrenbrumfield8973]

My name is warren brumfield i have spent time weeks and month's alone in the willdernes i love what you do what you are a part of its just so amazing and wonderful being out there bub so thanks and keep on hiking bub

[@mshroomguy]

very cool to get to know the man a little bit better.

[@bushcraft2012]

Keep doing what you're doing Dave...hope you realize how much you've educated and informed the bushcraft and self reliance community. I know I'm much appreciative of all I've learned from watching your videos.

[@Leelattimer]

Thanks for all you do Dave, I have learned a lot and will continue to learn! Looking forward to teaching my son all this great stuff too.

[@waynee.2856]

I am definitely appreciative of the knowledge you passed on and have been applying it whenever I get to go out. Like you, I love being outdoors and soaking up that fresh air and just enjoy what the Good Lord has provided. I'm like a sponge and I'm soaking up the info as much as I can. Thanks again Dave.

[@rafaelcolon3765]

I'm a veteran like you, Dave your are awesome ,I learn a lot from you, kep up the good work thank you.. Colón from Puerto Rico.

[@garyminick1050]

thanks Dave, I'm 67 yrs old and I love learning bushcraft and survival. My adult children and th people that I work with all kinda poke fun at all the primitive stuff I have learned and teach as often as I can whenever I have an audience or an individual. God bless you and all you have taught us !

[@transylvanianbushcraft1936]

This was the best commercial ever,if i can call it so. Dave,i almost started to loose tears,becouse i feel the same about these skills,i am a blacksmith too,and i am doing this for more than 20 years Go on,bro i am with ya!

[@GEOPUZZLE]

Although Dave earns a well deserved living passing on his skills, he also freely shares his knowledge and skills. There are a few top-notch teachers of self reliance on KZbin. Dave is among the very best. Long live Mr. Canterbury! I have learned so much from him and am grateful for all he does.

[@tjrubicon5463]

Best of the best survival, life, reality videos! Best!

[@trailtimeadventures2022]

One tribe, brother. We've only been an industrialized world for about 350 years. These skills were the fundamentals that led us into an age of smooth. These skills need to be passed on and remembered, not only for an emergency situation; but for nostalgia, as well. Good job, Dave. I'm looking forward to joining the instructor program certification processs.

[@Zakio378]

One thing I will say, Thank you Dave for being here for us!

[@sicilientwarkan7109]

This guy's passionate about what he's doing ..A true gold mine of education about proper living .. Hugely inspiring . Greetings from France

[@willan2451]

Thanks for what you guys do!

[@ddro3443]

Dave follows his own path - Not all of us will be able to unring the bell in our lives and transition to a simpler way to live, but Dave inspires all of us to simplify our lives, each in our own way - to become more self reliant.

[@jdevilist]

I simply admire the man and his ways. He is an inspiration to myself and many others I know. Big thumbs up to him.

[@MultiRusty111]

Been following you about three years now,Dave,and have got alot from you.Great videos.I wish my budget would allow the basic survival course at your school.Sooooo much to learn,.I however know a good deal since practicing skills like fire starting with flint and steel,making charcloth,building primitive shelters,identification of edible plants just for starters.Keep up the great work,you're much respected and appreciated.

[@davidrogers182]

I’m a huge fan of Dave Canterbury!

[@c.j.6891]

I couldn't agree with you more Dave! You're the man!

[@stevefisher2121]

Excellent video - there is a lot of truth in his words. Just look at the world we are living in now!!! Dave is a very wise man and has great foresight about history and how it often repeats itself.

[@CRJines]

Love Dave and all I've learned from him.

[@vincentc6919]

Love the books you've written. Passing the info on to our Boy Scouts...thank you Dave

[@Trevlee74]

The amount of information Dave has shared with the world...for free, is astonishing.

[@usapatriot4513]

Nothing but love for you Dave!

[@LuisDiaz-bv9ek]

Thank you. Great video.

[@leegrubb6753]

Very nice! Dave!!! Thanks!

[@theoriginalshotgunoutdoors3269]

Thanks Dave! One day I hope to have half of your woodsman knowledge!

[@ashkatjak]

Im glad I found you and this channel.

[@kimalexanderkepler8414]

Thank you Dave for keeping the tradition alive your classes should definitely be subsidized by our governments it's very very important for the betterment of humanity

[@dalebeasley3113]

plan to start. your basic correspondence course with my best friend and kids in January, as a 51 yr old navy vet i have a lot of knowledge but i always learn more from your books and videos and want my kids to know what you know . you are a great instructor and a national treasure in my humble opinion.

[@jasonmcneamer4497]

I have been hunting, fishing, trapping since I was a kid I love being in the woods and I don't need a reason to be there other than that's were I love to be.. a friend of mine turn me into Daves videos and I was amazed at how many thing I didn't know especially about trees and there many advantages. Iam from Mississippi and I would love to come to your classes just don't have the time working and raising a family but love your videos and watch everyone of them thanks Dave for sharing your knowledge and skills keep it up. From one outdoorsmen to another..

[@everettgaskins5040]

you can tell from the sound of his voice it come from the heart

[@Zack_Darce]

You got to get this video on the Pathfinder Channel. thank you so much for everything you do Dave Canterbury I bought the first book and your stainless steel bottle and one of your wool blankets... Don't forget Bank line

[@BarryDutton]

Great video top to bottom, right down to the music to help capture the essence of what a true Woodsman/Bushcrafter is about -- Love Dave and all he and his staff do to help people.

[@event8521]

A very educated man. Well delivered!

[@sosteve9113]

thanks for sharing atb steve

[@georynn2]

This is a really great video. Dave is a great treasure.

[@ktoutdoors8430]

I grew up doing the muzzle loading 1940 trapping ere life with my dad. I rely enjoy learning more about the bushcraft that you like to teach. Im passing it all on to my boy and want to tell you thank you for teaching me more to pass on to my boy. You are right, I think the new age kids dont know enough to survive let alone live when the world comes tumbling down and we have no more power or internet. Thanks so much, wish I could take some of your classes and even help you to pass on a trade we should never loose

[@loggram42]

I completely agree with you. 100% ! it's nearly I lost part that we all should know.

[@greghoover7934]

Why can't I find your early videos. Those were my favorite ones because they were so raw. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place but I've been following you since the beginning and as a 29 year Army soldier I appreciate what you're doing here. Keep up the good work Dave and Thank you.

[@FolkwayLodge]

nothing but respect here for Mr. Canterbury, from the guys at the Folkway Lodge. God Bless

[@rahulbannerjee4845]

Very nicely done

[@stotzmitchell]

Awesome video

[@braxtonamour]

Dave!!! I used to watch this dude back in 6th grade! He was the catalyst for becoming the outdoorsman I am today. Still more to learn from you too! I thought Panteao was just my favorite gunslingers

[@briancrabb4336]

right on Dave. Love your work

[@ronhart8857]

Very enjoyable, thank you for sharing!

[@ryanmiller498]

I really miss you and Cody on dual survival. I really hope one day that show gets renewed with the two of you together again.

[@websolutions6117]

I'm not even that interested in survival stuff, but the original Dual Survival with Dave and Cody was my favorite show because I loved seeing their enthusiasm for survival skills and their respect for the outdoors. Because of this, I trust them. You can't fake enthusiasm. It is obvious after watching their two seasons of Dual Survival that they are the real deal! Dave did admit that he fudged his resume but all that he has done on the show and his KZbin videos greatly outweigh that. The drama of the show and the interaction between them drew me in, but I learned all kinds of things about self reliance that I never would have if I hadn't watched the show. I also became impressed with their vast knowledge of the outdoors (animals, plants, landscape, etc.). I want them back on TV (or together on KZbin) and I know there are probably millions of other people that want to see them back on the air too. When is a network going to put them back on the air? Together!!!

[@campcrafter4613]

I admire MR Canterbury . He is smart ,He is a great teacher with great skill and if he makes a mistake He owns it and admits it. You can't ask for more than that!

[@tommyd22277]

Thank you Dave!

[@paulie4x1]

Say Heah Dave, I absolutly agree, Getting alittle off kilter and running out of daylight can be a survival situation if your not prepared, That's why I agree with you, I respect the conflict man against nature. Keep up the great work. ,, .

[@nbates9893]

excellent profile panteo. great human being right here

[@numberfive3185]

Thank you so much for teaching us all about the beautiful woods, in my book it’s the Good Lord, family and the beautiful woods and that’s it, I started out not knowing how to light a fire with a match to now knowing how to live in the woods, a billion thanks Mr. Dave Canterbury for everything, May the Good Lord bless you and your family

[@thiago-mac7664]

I really enjoyed the video and looking forward to your new book...

[@cheriewalton7828]

Your videos have become my most fave thing to watch on KZbin. I could tell you were a Christian just by the way you talked. Thank you for all your videos they are a blessing to me.

[@tomkorotney7053]

thanks Dave

[@rmranda1721]

Gotta respect this man.

[@benterwellen]

The bottom line, Dave is just a great guy and a great instructor...........We are really lucky to have Dave and others like him........

[@frankledford8096]

Sir I like several other thousands of foke had no clue of your so called wrong doings nor did or do care what you did or didn't do your private life is no concern to the majority of us. But your skills and teaching of the outdoor skills is what we watched and wanted or we wouldn't have been watching. I personally watched to learn and wanted the knowledge you offered may never have to use any of it but the idea of knowing more than I did and what little I was able to retain due to lack of use may someday save my life or someone else's. So with that in mind thanks for the knowledge you passed on to us that wanted to know. Also your at the time survivalist team mate Mr. Cody. Who also passed on to us his ways combined with your knowledge made a hell of a system to us that could combine the two a awesome experience or the best of the best survival techniques....again thanks and your private mater's is no concern to the majority of us so carry on bro screw the criticism and keep up the good work cover you 6 and steadfast and loyal. SNAFU.....

[@iSTAYuGO]

I totally agree with you Dave, pass it onward.

[@chesterwatkins9265]

Very interesting Dave! I love your passion...

[@bubbawv2]

Great video! Been a fan of Dave for many years!

[@Bushcraft_WildFox]

You have gained my respect I have wanted to live off the land like my ancestors did

[@WA8QFE]

Good Job Dave !! Lee, Indianapolis

[@jamesvieira8713]

love your channel Dave. I could tell you had done reenacting before I ever saw your bio. it shines through in your style of doing things.

[@metteholm4833]

You make sense, Dave.

[@grimmywizard]

Dave's a good man. Learned a lot from him, it's a shame he was fired from Dual Survival. Him and Cody were the essence of the show

[@bearthedruid529]

I absolutely agree with Canterbury's preserving knowledge point of view And the concepts of Pathfinder School. Living waaayyy down South in Uruguay (and funny enough from Icelandic stock or in other words "from one Pole to the other"), and with 58 years, I made a lifetime plan to prepare my kids for a crisis or chaos situation, but if that doesn't take place, they will also be able to transmit their knowledge to their kin. Keep it up. (Follow him since 2013 or may be before) A "wealth of knowledge" as someone on KZbin defined him.)

[@zed4130]

Your a inspiration sir,I've learnt so much from your videos and books,keep up the amazing work you do .

[@fromtheflightdeck252]

Dave Canterbury is a national treasure. Great info to pass onto Boy Scouts too

Awesome video, awesome guy

[@robertjohnson2586]

You the man Dave!

[@MoreAmerican]

Great video. Dave is awesome! Love his channel. Correction: most guys don't actually join the military after high school. I am pretty sure those that do are the minority.

[@canadianknifeExpert]

+MoreAmerican A lot of guys in the outdoor/survival community do.

[@ericgill5574]

i did

[@thirdlantern]

MoreAmerican I think the overwhelming majority of enlisted men do. What am I missing here?

[@missingremote4388]

1% of U.S. men actually volunteer but most have at least a highschool diploma.

[@cmfrizzz]

Dave is a good man
