@christophermacdog thank you

[MrHonea14]

how much did the pack cost?

[teotwawki12]

@MrHonea14 ...I bought that backpack without the side sustainment pouches a while ago for like $25 bucks used. Good luck finding that price though

[NinjaReptiles]

is that a walmart folding saw your using?

[teotwawki12]

@NinjaReptiles ....i think i got it at gander mountain....but they are probably sold at walmart too...

for a long bug out situation a good hatchet would do well too for some of that wood processing. . . more weight though for a short trip. . you remind me of beast12101. .

Light some tinder first with your firesteel and then use a piece of kindling to light the esbit tab/trioxane..Far easier and saves the matches for real emergencies. Becker BK-9 is a great knife!

[aritheory]

You can save yourself a lot of unnecessary spent energy by making your own axe. Find a two good pieces of flint rock, place one on top of the other perpendicular and use the back edge (not the sharp edge) of your knife to split the rock. Get a suitably sized branch, split the top with the knife and put the flint in the split. Cross-tie the flint in place with string or stripped bark if you don't have any. Done well, this will take down a tree that size in a matter of a few well placed strikes.

After your first log baton split, you should have put the one half down flat side up and used that as a chopping block, would have been easier on you from then on, more so since your cuts were at an angle. Safer too. ;)

Just an observation, overall I would have used the ground and a wooden wedge..........

Enjoying your videos though.

Next time just try crushing up the trioxane a little bit so the spark can catch on some of the powder

good vids man. i like the three part series. keep em coming

[Pat5725]

That gerber saw is great. I have the Bahco saw myself. But with that type of weather condition with snow, I would definitely brought a 19" small axe.
