Nice job IA woodsman--very sensible, and makes a lot of sense. Thanks for presenting. I'm not that far from you and have been on your webisite and am hoping to take a class from you.

The energy expended carrying in the larger tools is quickly made up when you begin your wood processing, especially if you're hiking in to one location and staying put for a while. For serious winter camping, I agree that you should have both an axe and a saw--depending on either one, especially the saw, 100% is risky--saws are great at what they do, but more delicate and prone to becoming stuck more so than an axe--bend the blade and they don't work so well anymore.

I've got the same bucksaw in 18". From L.L. Bean. You really can't beat it for how compact and lightweight it is. I live in Maine and can attest, time and effort saved in extreme conditions is MORE than worth it. And a long handled hatchet for splitting wood and driving stakes and such.

looking forward too the rest of the series

Great Video (as always) and a great subject, thanks for covering winter camping or survival. I live in Michigan lots of wet cold then dry cold conditions both can be very challenging thanks again

I agree with you about having an axe AND a saw whenever possible. I also agree with you about using an axe not a hatchet. I think most of what you put forth in the vid is right on the mark. I look forward to more.

TrailMaster has the 18" and 24" version of the saw. Why did you get the 24" version?

@mrsdjsdj Bigger saw cuts bigger wood. Bigger wood burns hotter and longer.
