Excellent! Thats 20 minutes of real tangible value. These are great videos at 29 minutes but I like the longer ones too. Keep it going Sir!

[@UpTheCreekX]

My wife and I own an outdoor adventure company and we watch a lot of these kinds of videos just to see what people are doing (and because it's better for your mental health than watching t.v. or news, etc!). We both agree with your "rant" on the side of the cliff -- you are by far the most professional and thorough instructor out there. Great videos, great instructional techniques and a lot of useful tips, tricks and techniques anyone can use in almost any situation. Well done, Sir.

[@markwallace925]

I rather have a longer video than short one's. Everything he or you do is educational. If people just stop and thinks about what he builds might save your life one day.

I like the fact you show what can be done with a bare bones cheap AF “kit”. As far as watch time goes, you are one of a few people I don’t skip through the video so 10,20 or 30 minutes I watch it all.

@@maryistulsafox I kind of agree… I like inexpensive! But it needs to be dependable! I actually think the cold steel GI Tanto is great bang for the buck. It’s also very nearly scandy (sp?) grind. Needs a bit of tuning. Take the scales off& it’s easily lashed in different configurations for different tools. I also have many knives for all my pockets. I also feel a cheap knife has a place… to use in that job you would damage the good knife… the sacrificial knife…

[@james-ri9jo]

I personally like the longer videos but I watch all your videos no matter how long. Like a bunch of the other comments you teach skills that probably 95% of the population doesn’t know how to do. I enjoy it all. Keep it up your videos are awesome

[@raymondhaskins9219]

It is apparent they have not put time off the land. I grew up in the far north in Wisconsin. Back in the woods you have to learn to survive. In Grand Forks AFB ND they would drop someone off in the woods to see if they could make it. A black friend of mine grim Alabama got sent out. Had to rescue him. Almost died. I can build a fire on very wet ground. But you have to be ready if that time comes.

[@Incandescentiron]

The only thing I would do different, if I had to go cheap on a knife, is buying a fixed blade paring knife. A very cheap folding knife is likely to just fall to pieces. I love these challenges. Gets me thinking. Thanks for posting!

[@JamesSmith-gz8xl]

I'm personally a fan of the 30 minute videos. There is so much more that you show during those extra 10 minutes. I know it's a pain when people don't watch the entire video but a lot of us do. People will complain no matter what you do. Cut it to 10 minutes and they'll complain you aren't showing enough. Keep it the same and they'll cut to their favorite parts. Some of us actually like the teaching elements in your videos, and watch it in it's entirety.

Honest opinion as a new sub & someone serious about wanting to learn your vids are perfect in every way. The info is vital, the timing of illustration is perfect (I like to rewind n watch to make sure I'm seeing exactly what you're showing). People skipping are looking for fluff. You cant cater to everyone. As your new student, i dont mind more detail n slower illustrations even!!

[@katherineturner8312]

Don’t stop your videos. Some of us a learning. Thank You!!

[@larryhillman5787]

[@richardarcher7177]

The length of the video I think is dependent on what you're doing. A 20 minute is great for a minimal gear episode but your more involved stuff needs longer time. The critical thing is keeping it interesting and in that you never fail. Keep it up.👍👍

[@user-bh3ew6ii4g]

Good point, for the more involved builds longer videos and/or multiple episodes is probably necessary to get in all the details.

[@chrisdooley6468]

20-30 minutes is about my max to watch videos so you’re perfect with your run times now

[@hungerforce3718]

I guess people skip to the tools or gear. I like how you explain and teach about everything.

[@davidkeyser128]

20 or 30 minutes. I watch them all. Just keep them coming. Most of my kit is budget items from Walmart. That ozark trail cup nests perfectly into the Stanley cook set they sell. They also have a decent steel mess kit. One of their Hart multitools works ok after putting in the time to properly sharpen the blade. The garden center you can find a fiskars folding saw for about 10 bucks. Often you can find the exact same thing in different departments for different prices. Paracord in the outdoors department costs almost double what paracord in the hardware department goes for.

Everything is in it, mylar space blanket, first aid etc. It's about two pounds. Would like to see your take on the peanut butter jar kit. It sure holds a lot. It's a great waterproof container for just a first aid kit alone.

After looking at inventories for well over 100 bags I stumbled onto Canterbury's 10 C's of Survival. Now I use that as a basis for evaluation (or building) of any kit. Plus most of my kits will get some food, first aid, and hygiene/sanitation items.
