I love this guy. I have learned so much from him. Keep up the good work.

[@obiwanjacobi]

Nice video, but I would prefer a fire layout that I could influence when it's not going as you anticipated. I don't like tipi's for the same reason. I use handful's of wood and build it from the bottom up. The inverted (up-side-down) fire is perhaps a better option for a low maintenance fire layout. Also be careful with putting your knife in/close to the fire. The heat could make it weak (unharden) and your edge will not last as long...

[@BraveTheWilds]

Basically a corn byproduct. It's ground up into a sand like consistency. Sounds bland but it's really quite good.

[@ytsurrentrof]

I usually go with the upside down fire (lighting my pyramid on top and letting it burn the wood downward (burns hot but slow), but I think I'll give this one a try. Also, I find it encouraging and refreshing to see young people learning/teaching primitive skills. Haters just don't get it. Thanks for all the vids.

[@asdodds1126]

Its a useful skill, could save someone stranded and freezing to death better safe and sorry good thing to teach at a early age. Regarding the individual is trusted and responsible.

[@dillotexan]

Great stuff Kenny... Nice demonstration of confidence to share the "less than optimal" results on the grits. I'm going to have to give that fire-lay a try. Keep 'em coming... I still intend to try your PVC hatchet sheath.

[@BraveTheWilds]

So you're saying that everyone who subscribes to my channel is pathetic because they listen to somone younger than them? That because they are humble enough to understand that they can learn something from anyone of any age they're "dumb as crap?" Pride comes before destruction my friend.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

you have gained woods wisdom..same way i did burned the dinner!..haha..but next time you will keep a better eye on the food..enjoy your videos keep up the good work..safe journeys

[@nerblebun]

First time in my 62 years I've seen burnt,boiled grits. Another first young brother. I truly admire the way you're not afraid to show your mishaps. Cool knife use and great fire lay. Always enjoy your videos.

[@BraveTheWilds]

Best value knife on the planet. Can't beat it for $10 bucks. Obviously it's a beginner/skinning knife. Good for carving and fine work but that's about it.

[@BraveTheWilds]

Mine is 10x22. I wish it was a bit taller. I've probably put $200 in. That mainly stovepipe and kitchenware.

[@jacquiblanchard3131]

Just wanted to take a moment to thank you, Kenny. My ten year old son asked his dad this past weekend to help him make a log cabin fire "like the one Kenny from Brave the Wilds" made. He loved the video, loved making the fire, and now has one more skill in his toolbox. Thanks!

[@BraveTheWilds]

Sorry brother I forgot to put it in last night. I just put it in this morning.

[@GardeningWithPuppies]

My husband was an Eagle Scout. He builds his fire just like you.

[@MBSRbushcraft]

Nice video! We used to make the same kind of fire with the Scout Troop. Only we used logs of 6 ft long! That was really crazy but lots of fun Take care, Mahdi

[@allenwhite6946]

I like your vids, reminds me of when I was in the scouts in the 70's, but I think that is funny that most peeps on here are dumb as crap, probably never been camping and have to learn from a young guy, nothing wrong with it, just pathetic that's all! lol and if you go into the mountains or woods and you get lost, you should have never been there period! lol like going to a gas station to ask for directions when you could have bought a map and mapped your route in advance, very stupid! lol

[@ilbob]

I will have to try this approach (platforms inside the stacks) to a log cabin fire some time. Usually I make them by building a small teepee fire inside the outer stack of bigger stuff and feeding it into the center with larger and larger stuff until there are enough coals to make it more or less self sustaining. Its great when you have large chunks of damp wood that otherwise would be tough to burn and requires little in the way of work to keep it going.

[@cricks2]

If I ever get lost in the woods, I hope its with Kenny, he can make fire with 2 pieces of soggy spaghetti. Good work Kenny, I always enjoy your videos and learn something too :)

[@Ozarkwonderer]

you may not be a master but you are beyond your years in skills and maturity. great vid, i was just thinking i needed to look up this fire lay and here you post just wat i needed. thanks and keep it up bro.

[@tristanrogers2846]

when you sleep under a tarp, how do you keep snakes and other critter out of the campsite and coming up on you in the middle of the night?

[@jpo183]

what mess kit is that, I have been looking for a "bigger" pot for cooking ramen. The colemen one is still small as far as qnty of water

[@lukamilanovic3930]

Hello Kenny im big fan.Can you (if have time)make video about sharppening your knives.Thanks.p.s.sory about my english.

[@QuercusLaevis]

I maybe would call that an "Inside Out Fire". Have you ever tried an upside down fire. Similar level of maintenance.

[@BraveTheWilds]

30 minutes with no refueling.

[@TonchyShultz]

Good things that you are happy ..another isn't important, because of that I "like" this video... I saw some small mistakes, doesn't mater! :-)

[@Row389]

Wow i love the concept of log cabin vs teepee ⛺️ burns so good stay safe fr covid-19 fr Toronto Canada 🇨🇦

[@Jakeisfunky2901]

Can you do a video on your axe

[@tzx551]

guyot designs/nalgene 38oz stainless steel bottle, can be a little tricky to get hold of

[@ThePinesOfGilbert]

Very nice video, I really like how you can lift your water bottle with your knife.

[@BraveTheWilds]

Just did a video on it: MSR Seagull. The other one that I boild the grits in is a Coleman. I did a video about 2 years ago on it: Walmart Mess Kits.

[@RealityStar9]

You may be too humble to accept the title of expert but you are one. Great job.

[@pyroman6000]

You've convinced me- I'm now going to get off the computer and go make me some grits!

[@KennethKramm]

Nice demo.

[@msmithclan]

Awesome video. You're a natural.

[@BraveTheWilds]

I have a whole video on throwing an ax. Just look it up on my channel. Thanks for watching.

[@dillotexan]

He ought to be getting paid for this... Very valuable stuff.

[@BraveTheWilds]

Yes. I prefer this one but there's nothing wrong with an upside-down fire.

[@Rogers1911]

Could you please do another video on your personal space?

[@BraveTheWilds]

English is fine man. I believe I can manage that, yes. Just give me some time.

[@MBSRbushcraft]

He's using the RVS Nalgene bottle

[@bengerling7722]

do you think a kabar would work for the bottle tric

[@9821Joker]

Outstanding video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge ! !

[@timgale8251]

could you show us ur technice with the larger axe.

[@rstlr73]

great video buddy. good job

[@eltenda]

you rock as always buddy:)

[@TheDeskBombs]

nice video man! i like toyr cabin fire a lot.

[@BraveTheWilds]

I'm not there by a long shot man. Thanks for watching.

[@oksurvivalguide]

Hey kenny!! What is your opinion of mora knives?

[@BraveTheWilds]

If it's around the 3/16 to 1/4 inch range then yes.

[@BraveTheWilds]

1.6 L. I would go smaller though. 1.1 preferably.

[@larsonemerson3354]

Make another video you have not in forever

[@jasper2222able]

nice fire - about how long did it last ?

[@BraveTheWilds]

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching my videos.

[@coltiscoolify]

Is that the Pathfinder Bushcraft Knife ?

[@BraveTheWilds]

Sounds like an awesome time! Thanks for watching.

[@jakelovewell7333]

Allen, not everyone in this world has grown up camping, or being raised in the country, or even been in boy scouts. I've been hunting, camping, and practicing survival skills since I was about ten. I'm currently military and well trained, but still this kid points things out that sometimes I just never thought of. You wont see this kid on the news shooting up his class mates. Kenny, keep it up man.

[@1deleau]

What kind of bottle was that please?

[@strappernick9891]

Food just tastes better outside!

[@BraveTheWilds]

Thanks man I appreciate it. Have a good day.

[@survivalfreek]

what size MSR seagull pot is that?

[@BraveTheWilds]

PLSK 1

[@tiagogobbi3610]

Nice king of camp fire but I don't know what did you mean with that word used in that moment that you use nest, for started the fire. Sorry, I'm not U.S. citizen or Britain, so my english isn't good enough. I'm just want to know what do you mean, or what word is that you use when you is about to start the fire, it's like a synonymous to "fire's nest"?? And besides all that, your vid it's seems very good and quality sound perfect to trying sleep with clickynd fire sounds and this fire aren't eficielty but very strong!! Eficiency have to do with quality of burn!! Your's campfire seems powerfull, perfectly to cook like you do, but nothing compared like a not much bigger campfire do with 2 days lenght of duration, in some youtube's video that you can find there!! Anyways, Thanks to this good up load!! P.S. Good trick that of just use a knife tu pull boiled water or pots!! :D :D

[@cbyrd2productions]

Great Video! Where are you from?

[@TheWilderness333]

Great video. Looks like a good fire lay and it burns food fast. :) Thanks for posting it.

[@lauralei400]

I'm so Happy for You to be so Young, yet, an avid outdoorsman.... my son (12) and I (his mom lol) can learn A Lot from this channel-- we Love our campfires !! Thank You for Sharing ☺

[@georgettewood8894]

You are not afraid to admit to your mistakes, that,s good you will go far with this good attitude. Enjoyed your video and learned much. Thank you. Have subscribed.

[@LOVOMISANTROPO]

Nice! Greetings from Mexico.

[@BraveTheWilds]

Thank you man I appreciate that.

[@danedevildog3510]

What type of boots brother?

[@nsaikrishna]

he did cast iron chef

[@1224chrisng]

"or some more WOOD , LAY it on top of that" -BraveTheWild- #InnuendoIntended

[@TheOutbred]

Do you have a paying job?

[@KennethKramm]

Nice log cabin fire.

[@sheeplord4976]

I built one of these without knowing they existed. My idea was to have large vents on the bottom to shovel smaller, drier fuel into, and a large vent that could be used to direct hot air into drying the larger sticks.

[@TMM6900]

Wat,food is he eating ?

[@LesothoFamily]

you been to red cliff ??

[@usarmyfl1]

Cool video. But I would probably put 2 pieces of green wood on top after the fire is established to lay a grate on.

[@westvirginiasurvival]

Good demo Kenny. Thanks.

[@MegaMan4762]

What knife is that???

[@damkayaker]

Tried grits once at a nasty Waffle House. Never again. What are grits anyway?

[@c-rod1403]

Sooo talkative

[@antoniopinheirofna]

Why don't you clean around before light?

[@MrAwesomevids44]

nice vid my freind.

[@marienonnie]

How did you learn all of these things? Were you a boy scout?

[@PowellShiau]

very helpful thanks!!!

[@dblock2626]

Coolest part of the video was when he used the knife with a built in flint sparked on it

[@nazarionieto7088]

Cool

[@1deleau]

Grits!

[@raftyraft1768]

"Our lunch" well i dont remember eating that

[@oksurvivalguide]

Thanks for the fast reply!!!!!!! :) have a nice day!!!

[@ScoutcraftAcademy]

Good show, Kenny. I'm sharing it with the scout troop :)

[@Axemanvan]

Cool vid

[@floortjeklei3522]

Thats so helpful! Thanks. Its funny realizing i could have done that at camp too, sadly i took half an hour struggeling to get it on beceause of weather issues *and a lack of braincells* haha

[@floortjeklei3522]

Oh oops, wasn’t meant to do that in big letters

[@DialainRu]

Возле реки место очень классное

[@timtaco1997]

[@bengerling7722]

thank you

[@leaojose45]

muito bom.

[@mrblowhard2u]

I like your videos. You make me wish I was a lot like you back when I was a kid. Anyway...I wonder if you could show some tips on how to throw your ax. Remember "A watched pot never boils but, turn your back for a second and you burn your grits."
