Ok
Thanks for You tips. Just noticed that your axe has some lens on it. As I presume, it's Hultafors. I've got almost the same, and mine has one too, which is weird to me, as I've been taught that it could cause an axe to bump off the wood, while side swinging, which is not great. Now it makes me curious if it's a big issue anyway. Would appreciate any thoughts on the matter. Thanks in advance.
No need to sorry Mike
Good morning ☀️🌞
Very useful tips mate. You are doing a great job and don't worry about how often you upload content...it's about quality not quantity with you bud. 👍😁
amen
I just love that you are including Eve, my father did this with me as soon as I could form a sentence and without any doubt I learned, I retained and I appreciated greatly and loved all my time with my dad building things/doing DIY/maggot races😂/ fishing/ camping/being woodsy and out in nature. I never regretted a single moment and I believe your children - especially your daughter - will remember, learn and not regret a single moment doing these things with you. Dad 🏆.👏👏
I would love a knot tutorial video! Nice job overall!!!😊

Hi ta outdoors, I have been watching your videos for a year now and I find your work really cool. Keep it up!❤
Cheers!
Lovely to see your daughter out and enjoying herself in nature. Too few kids get this kind of opportunity these days.
Thanks for all the advice you've given us!
Glad you enjoy the vids!
Would love an update to your work on maintaining the woodland! I want to do something similar once i have enough money saved up, and so far your contents been great for high quality well produced information on the topic!
Yep update coming this winter! I tend to leave the management of the woods in the summer to let it flourish and then do the work in the winter months.
Eve steals the show !!!!! oneseriously adorable little sprout !!!!!! LOVE these skill demo vids !!!!!!
Great tips! Here's a point for those who want to get into bushcraft: Get yourself some quality knives and hatchets. Your tools have to be always sharp when you get into an adventure, thus the steel must be strong enough to keep the blade sharp for a long time. If is too soft, then will lose the sharpness very fast. If the tool is not sharp enough you won't get the shaves as tin as you see here in this video. You will struggle, lose energy and at the end the shaves will be just bad. If you are really into bushcraft, maybe you will consider trying to forge your own knife from recycled steel, this is a very exciting project.
Your excellent, common sense ideas and long experience are a gold mine. Thank you❤️🤗🐝
Hi Mike, It's always good to see you back in the woods and at the bushcraft camp. I've really enjoyed you sharing these skills, they are practical, and good to know. Please can you make another video on the most common and useful bushcraft knots as I really need the practice and learn better by being shown. Cheers Mike for another great video and so nice to see your daughter out in the woods with you learning some really good skills.
Another vote for bushcraft knots tutorial video here 🙋
I really love the pace of your examples. Slow enough to realistically grasp the information and placement. While many others go so wuickly its like they assume you already know what your doing. I also really like that you show tips using things anyonencan find around them vs tools that others assume we already own
I LOVE your videos. I've used your tips several times while camping here in the high Sierras and continue to learn from each your your videos as I go camping with increasing frequency before the start of the winter. 👏👏👏👏
Great video! I enjoy how you present and educate in a way everyone can follow. Totally Awesome 👏
Just watching the one of you and your Dad playing Conkers. ( 5 yrs ago it says) I'm dying laughing! Y'all are adorable! I have five boys, grown now and I'm going to show them that game,lol. They will love it. Boys never truly grow up and I'm grateful for that❤ living your show from across the pond in Texas.
Thank you for making these great educational videos.
Thank you for showing the pot hanger in such great detail. I've seen it before but could never figure out the notch. The X really shows it. Thanks 💖🌞🌵😷
Thanks for all the tips! I'm new to bushcrafting, and your videos really help!
Can't wait to try some of that when I go camping 👍 I'm also trying out the tent tarp and see how it goes.
Just when I believe I have seen your tips and tricks, you come up with new ones or with better presentations, including new information. I will look forward to regular weekly uploads!
As always , great advice !!
Fantastic as always my friend. I always watch all the way through, even if I've seen you do something like that before, it seems that I always see or learn something new from the process. Thanks and keep em coming. ✌️
Thanks for the video Mike. Great useful tips!
Hi some of things u did I got to learn those in the army so thank u for recapturing my memory

The Jason Statham of camping.

It is incredible how good and experienced you are, you are an amazing person and you help me a lot to improve my skills, I hope you continue for a long time and that your channel continues to grow much more as well.
I really enjoy your videos. Don’t mind waiting when they are worth waiting for. 👍
I particularly liked the demo of burning twigs vs spit kindling , good to know, thanks.
Try it out! Works really well
Nice one Mike. Great job as always
I really like this channel a lot. I always learn something from your videos.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with heart.

Great vid 'TA'. Thanks for uploading another EPIC bushcraft skills video.
Awesome content thanks for sharing!
YES YES YES YES, I love your videos
If you want to learn about bushcraft and this type of stuff there is no way around your channel. I went „camping“ with my girlfriend this summer for the first time and your videos helped me a TON. Keep up the good videos no matter how long they take to make👍👍
I like your videos very much. Keep up the work
Good information, working on clearing a friend's property with a camp permission in the deal. Thank you again for the info
I've followed this channel for years, can we please send this out to the people who are innocent and just need help hiding? Bush craft can save lives!!
Enjoyed this great tips for sure

Time flies by too quick, i didnt realize how long ago you had your daughter. Great tips as always.
I gained a lot from this. Thanks for your time
Excellent fella👍
Only the best can follow one'sinclinations. This is the best state of life.
Hello, your work is great. Let's continue!💖💖
One bushcraft skill I was taught as a Boy Scout in the 1950s (yep, I'm a geezer) is "pioneering" i.e. lashing. I never forgot those skills nether have helped me over the years. LEARN LASHING! Also I was taught how to use and sharpen axes of all sizes in that Scout Troop. Great skills!
Another great video. Hat tipping.
Another great video, thank you for sharing!!
Watch your pallet cabin videos. Loved them. Now subscribed. ❤
Very good tips....My bug out site deep in the wilderness just got burned out from wildfire started by lighting. I've had that site for 6 years, been in and out of there many times. Now I have to go way north of there to a wilderness I've never been in before to find another bug out site.
Excellent choice of subject matter. Very informative. Well thought out. I'm just getting started, you fixed so many things for me in this video. Perfect presentation. thank you. I just subscribed.
You are extraordinary, very motivating us
Feather sticks are different between wood species too and how green or how rotten they are. You used dry hazel which is good for making feather sticks but isn't as good for fire lighting compared to a resinous fir or pine. I coppice hazel too and it makes excellent charcoal if you fancy pit firing. I'm up for a colab if you are. Cheers J
It’s just like sharpening a pencil ✏️ with a knife but on a bigger scale really. Cool.
10/10
Amazing 🤩
Awesome!
Nice video!
Good stuff....
Hi , Florida USA here, Enjoy all your vids !! Question what are these pants you are using , also the former Royal Marine had them in another vid of yours. They have the reinforced knees , seat etc. Who makes them ?
Yo Mike, ( that’s a Philly hello or shout out ). Glad you’re making these videos and sharing you’re acquired knowledge. Don’t know if there is a way to categorize your videos by type, like specific builds, knife, knot, tarp, etc… It would be a great help either from your own personal website or a link in each platform. A branched format by type we could revisit. Maybe even with sections by type within them would be incredibly useful for a bloke like myself having a go at a bushcraft oriented camping trip. Thanks again, carry on…GDBRECKER
Just saw your World War II Foxhole videos And I was wondering if you’re going to make anymore World War II styled videos I really enjoyed them
I'll add a bushcraft tip. At about 9:10 you tie your pot hanger around a tree and explain how, with very little effort (carving the hanger, learning the arbor knot, keeping the hanger on your person/in your pack while hiking, carving the hanger, and applying the arbor knot in such a way that it will hold that hangar), you can hang your pack on a stick. There are already sticks conveniently attached to trees where you can hang your pack.
Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.
Very good !
It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.
Sticks? STICKS?!!! My 3 year old grandson loves sticks! I’ll show him this vid and we’ll go out to the park and he can show me what he remembers! Your daughters cute and she’ll Make a food daddy’s little helper! X

Hi from Newfoundland Canada great video buddy as always
Thank you!
Trimakasih sudah berbagi tips, sangat bermanfaat, salam hangat dari Indonesia
Blimey, Eve's your absolute double!
😍😍That is a beautiful axe, what axe is it? I don't see it in the Amazon links Also keep up the great work, love the videos filled with useful info!👌👌
Love your vids. What knife are you using in this vid?
never tried a axe like that for feather sticks. What Scandi knive are you using?
how do you identify different trees for different wood uses?
Great video nice ax what ax is it??
A very nice compilation, gg's 🔥(😂literally)! Like deployed 👍
What is your opinion on nettles as a fire starter?.. green or dry 🤔
Love the knife, where did you get it?
my childhood friend would always make himself a spear back in the day from a tree branch.
What a cutie! Does she favor her mom?
❤❤❤
As a survival expert if you was putting your life on it then, what book of survival would you recommend? Or Books? To cover what’s needed not just to survive an say get rescued which is great to know but to thrive? To cover foraging, bushcraft, survival, shelter and ect. there are too many different books on this by authors that write articles for a Living and will say something works because someone else did. An I don’t have the money to spend on possible garbage and still feel unsure and unsafe. So which would you recommend and also is there any of those “pocket books” or manuals you would say is worth keeping with/On your person? Especially a foraging/edible plants one? Remembering all the plants, type, name, looks is always the hardest to me. Thank you for your time
Would it be viable to do some kind of wrap around ridge line instead of two separate lines?
