About Life In Farmland: Our family strives to be as self-sufficient as we can be. We grow a lot of food in the garden, raise or hunt for our meat, cut and use firewood to heat our house in the cold Minnesota winters. We want to know where our food comes from, what goes into it. We strive to live a slower and sustainable lifestyle with family being our first priority. On this channel, you will find a lot of how-tos, shared experiences, recipes, and videos of things we are trying and learning more about.

Great video! We're glad you are enjoying the GenOx!

[@LifeinFarmland]

:) Amazing Knife!

[@rrcaniglia]

I feel a real kinship with you. Definitely a kid from Farmland. I am from Nebraska and I recognize the blue jeans and canvas coat as a fully legitimate suit for playing in the snow, LOL! Nice job with the video. Assuming good clothing, a compass, escape azimuth, whistle, light tarp and cordage for shelter, fire-making capability, water, and some food bars. Then being lost is an adventure instead of a panic.

[@MrThenry1988]

I asked a guy that lived a lot in the woods trapping and hunting what he kept to start fires. Expecting some crazy answers he actually told me a bic lighter. He said your nuts if you don't. If Boon could have had one, he would have had one. Good show man.

[@42lookc]

Your videos are so peaceful and speak so strongly of the pleasure and satisfaction of doing things for yourself.

[@fallingwickets]

this one was one of your best...puppy wins for best supporting actor

[@YankeeLivn]

Another well put together video Eric, thanks for sharing, Have a blessed day

[@tomkeller6982]

Many thanks. Really enjoyed you and the dog out there making camp and a nice fire with that beautiful knife. Well done friend.

[@harveyroad6]

Great video. It was easy because you were prepared. You had your knife, gathered the kindling of various sizes before lighting the tinder. Good job encouraging a life skill. Nothing like a warm fire to improve a situation even a small one to cook lunch. Thanks. Good work.

[@rayjohn3946]

Truly great video LiF, very much enjoyed this. That is one dandy bushcraft knife. I love winter, your trek in the snow was great, yes on the fire but you needed tea or coffee in that mug man!

[@50shadesofgreen]

awesome looking knife Eric !!

[@josephblalock3543]

I was surprised to hear you mention Dick Proenneke and Les Stroud. These are two big influences on my views of the outdoors and just ideas about life. I haven’t acted on the ideas as much as you have, but I am a kind of back yard outdoorsman. Loved this video!

[@maris.6118]

Love the deep snow bush craft reminder. Thank you also for the illustrative story on why bush craft isn't just for when you expect to need it!

[@teriguerin8371]

Great gift. Thanks Eric.

[@ubetchya78]

Wow you started that fire as easily as falling off a log! Loved watching Survivorman & Les Stroud.

[@charlesvincett84]

Now that’s a knife!!!

Eric, I have watched a few of your videos and I have a suggestion for you. I noticed in your most recent video the thermometer on your stovepipe. This may not be a good idea. Years ago a gentlemen working on my wood stove informed me that the heat can ruin a magnet, causing it to drop to the floor. If it is hot it could cause a fire. I placed my magnet on the top of my stove. That way gravity also holds it in place. Just an FYI. Keep up the good work. BTW, I have had good luck with Morakniv knives. They are great knives for the money. Peace out!

[@2manysigns]

Good vid . Very nice Genesis . Dog reminded me of an otter jumping around in that snow . lol

[@tomashbaugh8891]

Eric- Thank you for your time and videos! I agree on practicing the craft. We lose some skills overtime and it’s good to keep it up. Nice knife. Thanks for the video.

[@FreedomandBaconHomestead]

Well done!

[@NuManXplore]

Great video! You should definitely do more of these style vids! Since the outdoors is one of your passions maybe some vids of overnighters in the woods, shelter builds, or campfire cooking would add some content variety.

[@sharonallen6921]

Congratulations on being gifted the knife. It looks awesome. I love your dog. I like how as soon as you sounded distressed he stopped and jerked his head around. He was not going to lose his human! I can't imagine starting a fire in that much snow. Heck, I've never seen that much snow. Good video and thanks for sharing. ~Sherrie in South Carolina

[@mjarchambeau]

Nice video. Enjoyed seeing your best friend bounding through that deep snow.

[@mfavia620]

Great job on the fire 🔥 Eric!! LT makes some of the best mass produced and custom knives out there in my opinion. I own three..the Jessmuk, the Bushcrafter and my favorite The GNS. There heat treating is some of the best in the business. Add to the fact that there’re made in the good ole USA 🇺🇸, I feel it’s a win win. Thanks for the video and God Bless on a fire made well done. ATB Mike!!

[@terryschiller2625]

Awesome knife Eric. One thing to also remember when out in the woods don't start your fire under trees especially pine trees. If the wind blows it may knock snow from the trees on the fire and put it out on ya. Love the video! Thanks

[@WhenTheManComesAround]

I also started my love of adventure with the hatchet. Also it looks like we also shared watching both Dick and Ray surviving in the wilderness. Great video as always my friend, and looking forward to the next one 😁

[@mandbhomestead]

That is a great looking knife, congrats. Great video, the steel worked great. Passed the paper test. Your dog loved it out there, mine love the snow also. Thanks for sharing.

[@tomwaldo9556]

That is a very nice knife. The fire starter worked slick. You found good material to work with. Awesome.

[@fiveacrehaven]

Can't believe you made it through that deep snow! I was snow shoeing in deep snow years ago and fell over like you did! Lol I know how thay goes! Hope all is well, spring should be here soon!!

[@LifeinFarmland]

ha, I had plenty off camera. When is spring coming? :)

[@charlesvincett84]

Great choice on your music accompaniment...👍😄

[@dianecharles881]

This was really awesome! It’s something everyone would see!

[@MidwestGarage]

Loved those books as a kid too man. Great video as usual!

[@digbyodell2924]

Nice work just to get into the bush for a while. I gave up about 14 inches ago!

[@lonelyprepperhomestead911]

Whenever I see "Limited Edition" I know immediately the price is going to be inflated. So, wasn't surprised when I checked the price. If I was a knife collector, perhaps I'd pay the price. But, for a tool in the woods, I'll stick to my custom made knife that cost a whole lot less. Clearly they don't intend this to be an item they sell all the time if it is truly a limited edition. It is a nice looking knife though. I'll give it that. :)

[@garybenedict3673]

Awesome knife I’ll look into purchase of one As always great video work safe.

[@charlesvincett84]

Shazam.... fire 🔥!

[@scottfoss716]

Oh that poor Dog sure struggled through that deep snow as did you.

[@LifeinFarmland]

😀 yeah we are both pretty warn out. Can wait for some warmer temps. 👍

[@garywinters2282]

$280 on there website, really nice knife but too steep for me.

[@josephblalock3543]

I don’t have that kind of money either, but maybe in the future I might have a bit extra. I sure know I have spent $300.00 worse!🍺

[@PatrickWagz]

What's the pup's name?

[@LifeinFarmland]

Diesel :)

[@charliesmith643]

If you get tired of it... 👋

[@patrickinottawa27]

Note to Graces future boyfriends. Behave boy's, this little lady carry's one big knife....
