Yes, a good coffee pot is needed. Also pack good coffee in a sealed container. I have a fire starter sort of like that in my car. It also has a little "saw blade" that slips into the part that hold the steel. The blade is used to shred up wood by dragging it sideways on the wood. It is good for making a rough surface on a bit of wood before you slice some off. This makes it start easier. The US military trenching tool is easier to to get hold of here. Inspect it carefully before you buy because there are a lot of fakes out there. It is also very good to buy some of those great big zip-lock bags and put the following in them: 1) A coat that is warm and good against the rain. 2) A wool blanket that is just big enough. Wool is good for not burning from sparks from a fire. 3) Shoes and spare socks. Pick stuff that packs down small. This is just for while your real shoes dry out.
I've had my jetboil for 15 years. It goes with me in every adventure. Love it.
Great group of items! I’d like to add Cub packs from Front Runner are also a great option (for inside vehicle/home/garage, I think I have 8 now) only a tiny bit smaller and lid can come straight up and off if they are all stacked next to each other and lid wraps over box edge. Love my jet boil also, I then do a pour over, easy and clean. ☕️ ☕️
Another good video Ronny - very informative as always!
Love my Moka, one of my favourite rituals
Always a fantastic video, Rony. I believe I was fortunate to find an army shovel for a good price maybe ten or two years ago, but I had no idea it was anything unique.
I have one of those shovels. Strong bit of kit. My father in law gave it to me. I love it because it folds to such a compact size.
Just got myself a Moka pot for Coffee after watching this video. AWESOME 👌 thanks for the tip Ronny
Can confirm about that folding shovel. Managed to jag one a disposals store about 20 years ago. Can't kill it, and I've tried.
The Front Runner Wolf Pack Pros are fantastic to use as kids suitcases. Weatherproof we keep them outside in rain hail or shine.
always nice to see the opinel in use, that was my first knive as a kid, am 44 now and they did not change. swiss made has much going for it as well. knives are like torches, one could buy one every day, no matter if needing it or not.
Aren't Opinal made in France?
Opinel is french as cheese mate
Umm.french
Excellent! Up here in Alaska, here are 10 items I've used for at least a decade and highly recommend: 1) Grundens rain pants, 2) SIMMS rain jacket, 3) MSR whisperlite stove, 4) Lekki treking poles 5) Crispi Colorado Boots 6) Darn Tough merino wool socks 7) Thermorest sleeping pads 8) ArcticOven tents for cold winter camping 9) Mountain Hardware tents for summer camping 10) UDAPP bear spray
The MSR stoves are my favorite. The International might be more practical though since it uses all gas types. White gas is pretty difficult to find
Best socks ever
All very worthy Good choices there, love them all
Some good ideas there, I'm partial to a good knife too although many of mine these days are becoming display items, simply because I have all I need for my camping etc. I have one that looks very similar to your red one however mine has a glass breaker & seat belt cutter on it and opens with a quick flick one handed. That one lives in the drivers door pocket in case of emergency. My most carried one is a Bowie Knife with a custom leather sheath and is used for a lot of different things around camp including striking my ferro rod.
Good list definitely picked up something here myself.
Use the jetboiler to boil water before adding it to the Moka. Coffee is brewed in a minute or 2 and reduces the chance of the coffee "cooking" before the water gets to. Impact on it. I do it at home and the bush
💯 mate have done it before using a Billy can. Gentle touch makes a big difference
That’s a lot of coffee passion😆
Yeah that would work but when I make coffee in the Moka pot I just put the water in the bottom and let it get hot and as it starts to boil then I drop in the coffee basket and screw the top on no chance of cooking the coffee at all
@dx80cruiser Nah mate, the grounds need to be gradually warmed to heat-off the volatiles in the ground beans.
See what you’ve started Ronny? Great campfire conversation by latte sippers😆.. @@Ronny_Dahl
After 25 years four wheel driving you’re the only channel I actually learn something new. Great work
Vic High Country is mine and misso play ground , we cannot get enough. Love that 2k tourch we just ordered 2 , found on special , 50 bucks off... Jet build had forever so so good. Love my knives , my fave I carry for EDC is a Benchmade Bugout & Leatherman P4. We def need a good coffee maker for sure.
5:03 after having used many plastic boxes over the years, I will never use opaque boxes again. Even if they have written what they contain, the ability to see what they have inside it's so much more convenient. Good suggestions, Ronny. Thanks
Awesome vid Ron!! Keeping this saved!!
Yes, the mocha pot is ideal. I have one in my kit too.
Got into camping thanks to ronny. Hoping to get an overlander hilux one day!
Thanks, some cool looking products. One thing i saw recently, that is awesome, is a 2W Uniden UHF handheld which is now USB C powered which means no extra chargers required. It's the UH825 for about $130. Don't have one yet as i'm hoping they bring out a 5W USB C version of the X TRAK 50.
Your friend did a wonderful job on that knife, its gorgeous and looks sturdy
Thanks Ronny. Another great video :)
if you want flashlight with same function but smaller I recommend IF 23. It has the same function but it has RGB light that you can adjust what colour you want.
always great vid ronny, but didnt know it was special having an army shovel, i guess i was lucky picking one up on the cheap a decade or 2 ago..
great vid. I've got one of those military grade folding shovels with the pick. It was my dad's from when he was drafted during Viet Nam. It is a beast. And...I actually think they designed it to hold the TP roll like you showed. That's why it doesn't have a T-handle. As I've moved from backcountry backpacking to camping out of my truck, it can now go with me and I remember my dad whenever I use it. He was a good guy...so not just when I go to the toilet.
No T handle because it slides into its sheath to pack mount.
@@hamishsmith6077 Yep...but which came first? The sheath or the need for the guys to keep the TP off the ground when taking care of business.
Try a high CRI light like the Wizard C2 with a Nichia bulb. It's amazing how much good color reproduction helps for cooking at night.
Thanks for the armrest Ronny, absolutely love it in the wagon mate. Appreciate it.
Glad you like it mate
I have one of those shovels. Yeah they're great. Used it in my days as a soldier and many's the fighting pit was dug, BUT, the bride snavelled it to do the gardening so I had to buy another one😠. I went with Hardkorr because of the longer handle and other bits on it, a bit like a swiss army knife. I haven't used it anger yet but it seems pretty strong, we shall see. Cheers, BobbyB.
I love my cheap camping coffee maker. It's not backpack friendly however. But I keep it in my trailer (rv/caravan) it works on campfire and gas stoves and I love the super strong brew first thing in the morning. Cost me $20 at either Canadian Tire or Walmart... Definitely buy again.
Mine is from some random hardware store. It makes good coffee and in a pinch, hot water for tea etc.
Aussie Disposals sell the genuine Army shovels (or did ~2years ago in Vic). Mine doesn't have the back piece yours did but it is great.
Hi ronny great video .will the arm rest fit a gq patrol wagon Cheers
Hey maybe that storage box might want to consider some sort of pressure release valve. That situation could be a big problem if you don't have any on hand.
Long time sub, great content, thanks. I dig the armrest for my 1997 80 series, any ETA on restock? Cash in hand I'm ready to roll.
I prefer the Stanley adventure all in one coffee French press. It's 20 bucks and amazing. Also prefer the light my fire striker. It's also 20 dollars and works better than any other ferro I've used
Prefer a posthole shovel anyday . What was the make and model of the 2 way radio ? Thanks
Ronny u are amazing! Thanks man.
I love using a moka at home, out camping i have a percolator. Simialar concept. Maybe ill bring the moka to make espresso out in the woods
I like that lantern!
Video well done, Ronny.
lil tip for the ferro rod. he aint doin it wrong but he IS doing it the hard way. place your knife right at the base of your tinder ball. elboe locked into your thigh, wrist against the knee, blade up and thumb on the back of the blade all for stability. pull the ferro rod against the knife, not knife against ferro. all the sparks are conserved and thrown right onto the tinder bundle instead of only getting a fraction of the sparks. you'll spend far less time setting the fire.
100% the mokka! I run a 2 cup version. Great as a heart starter in the morning.
Holy crap man the drill coffee grinder at 0:54 is epic.
It’s always good to see someone support quality made products. I personally don’t care if it’s a knock off. It has to perform at the original’s level or better.
This man know how to make fun in a bush. With all that things.. 😁
German made MERCATOR carbon steel knives are worth considering, I've had mine for 40 odd years, easy to sharpen to a very sharp edge
Great video! At 7:48 it’s paired. Peared isn’t a word. If it is, it’s something to do with fruit lol.
Some great stuff there! However, seems like the discount code for the Wolf Pack pro doesn’t work?
I reckon that jetboil will fit an msr lowdown, which will make it more stable, it won't be sat on a big canister on a wobbly canister stand,
In addition to a military grades shovel what's your recommendation for a Dunnie?
Great video
Good video. Always love to see what other campers value. For me, as i get older, its all about comfort. Any thing that make me more comfortable, gets a tick. Totally agree about cheap e-tools. Waste of money.
I have about 7 of those army shovels laying around in the shed, no gift ideas from this but I know how I’m going to pay for Christmas now
Hey Ronny the arm rest fit 100 series LC thank mate
3:19 I need this for my Pajero Mini 🤩
The Australian Army issue shovel is the go, a tough implement.
The Kmart version of the Jetboil is great. $59 and almost identical in speed
A thought: but can you get parts for whatever you buy? Example: I decided on an ARB compressor because I can get parts or a replacement online from anywhere in the world.
Funny I keep a US issue E tool in my Jeep I’ve got a old one from the 60s I plan to keep in my pickup because it takes up more space than my tri fold one
highly recommend a mini blowtorch. Easiest fire starting ever. for $20. runs off your camping fuel. 1 second to get the fire started, works when it's raining, high wind, etc
Fantastic list just in time for xmas
All right, the knife your friend ("who is a blacksmith") crafted is really awesome. Yes, lots of interesting things, but that knife! (Even so, I recently ordered a Nebo light).
My army shovel is DoD 1944. It constantly lives in any vehicle I've owned for at least 30 years. Unbreakable, it was $3.00 at the disposal store, they had a huge crate of them, all new and greased up wrapped in wax paper. I think it was another $1.50 if you wanted the army sheath for it. My machete is DoD 1966 or '64 far better than an axe except it won't do double duty as a hammer like an axe will. They don't make em like they used to.
Is the armrest thing magnetic, will it fit on an 80s series door, I'm a serial arm on the door driver, my air con is window down, factory sun roof open, always thought these things were a great idea!, great list too, the 2 torch lights are on my list already too! I had one of those shovels from my army days, wished Id kept a hold of it, you are so right the imitation ones are all shit, they rent light the Army ones, but they will hack anything, I even used to grind one side for a sharp edge, don't ask what that got used on, it was effective though!🤘
Hey Ronny, with the Mokapot segment, what was the kit you used to grind the beans? Cheers,
Glock make an entrenching tool which is good and durable. Saw in the handle too. I have an old German army one that looks like yours with the little pick axe on the back but that is at least twice the weight!
Okay, that knife your friend made ("who is a blacksmith") is pretty cool ... Ya, lots of cool stuff, but that knife! (Though I did just order a Nebo light).
I have a Dutch army version of that shovel.
Awesome vid, liked 60 seconds in and I don’t drink coffee lol didn’t disappoint! Legend 🤙
Glad you enjoyed it even though you drink coffee 😂. I had my first coffee which was a triple espresso at 33yrs of age. Been hooked since 😅
Hey I saw you touched on how you love your axes. Do you have a video or an opinion on a great wood chopping axe?
hultafors are at the top of the game
Leatherman is my go to knife for work and play, but like you I have several other knives also. As much as I’d enjoy a Moka pot coffee that looked like way too much effort and parts. If you pay good money for items also make sure they’re well know brands, been caught a couple times with expensive heaps of sh*t. Top list Ronny, MaxTrax my next buy so I can explore more when solo.
G'day Ronny, very keen on your arm rest, but do you know if it'll work well on a prado? Thanks mate.
150 it fits not sure about the 120 but 95% sure it will
I'd personally recommend the Aeropress over a mokka pot. Can pick them up for around $50 now.
not really camp friendly, will break in no time
@@lambbosbread123 hardly. The material they're made of is extremely durable. I've had one for years and it's been beat to hell with no issues.
When do you think you’ll restock on the travellers armrest.
Old US and (West) German army entrenching tools are very similar, and also incredibly durable. Sadly they’re not terribly easy to find nowadays either. I have a couple of the German ones and they’re totally overbuilt. The only thing that will ever break is the wood handle, and that’s easy to fix.
I hate cheap shovels after destroying about 3 over the years I picked up a cold Steel spetsnaz shovel. It doesn't fold but fits most places the trenching shovel would and it's made from super thick steel and I'm yet to really even dent it.
My husband is always talking about how he wants a hat like yours! Can you tell me where I can get one? I'll win Christmas, for sure!
Yes!!!!!!!!! I’d also like to know???!!!!
Bonus item: can confirm! I’ve had my father’s hand-me-down “sh*t shovel” from the USAF since he was issued a ‘new’ one in 1987. Never broken, never not used! Never leaves my camping pack…
I know those entrenching tools well Ronny ! Myself and one other bloke once were ordered to “ move that hole…1 metre to the right ! ‘. We were already four feet down and due to a bit of digger humour which did not meet the funny test of the resident Cadre Staff Warrant Officer…he made us ‘move the hole’….with those bloody entrenching tools !!…yes….they do work.
If you don’t drink coffee is there a easy alternative for making road side cup of tea
Aeropress>mokka pot. Aeropress has way more nuance to get the best out of a variety of beans. Mokka is only good for the same beans brewed the same way over and over, which you can do withe the aeropress too
Obtain a "micropore" tea/coffee strainer, fill with coffee, pour hot/boiling water through. Rinse, drink coffee, repeat. Three minute coffee! Super lightweight!
Where can we buy authentic Australian army foldable shovel like yours Sir?
Excellent ideas. I had a genuine army shovel…someone’s armies stole it!!!
Pull the rod instead of pushing the striker. You can control where the spark goes much better.
My 5 yr-old Maxtrax have never failed to get me unstuck. But they have one drawback: they look quite sturdy, but the instructions say they should not be used as a leveling block. Don't know why.
love your show, what was the name of the latern?
in the description mate
How melted is your moca pot handle? If it’s bad as mine, it’s very melted
Do you Aussies not have military surplus stores?
Would the arm rest work on the new Jimny?
Ask not if the Arm Rest would work on the Jimny, but would the Jimny work on the arm rest? Jimny's are a great idea and brilliant vehicle. Just wish I could fit me and a toothbrush in one.
Anyone know what he used to grind the coffee? (Obviously not the drill it self but everything else)
Personally I usually just get the ground beans as I live in a camper but prior I would grind the beans prior to a trip and freeze them as it packs easier and a grinder is one less item to pack or break when needed.
Did Victorinox send you a promo pack ? Ya lucky bugga !
Katadyn Pocket Water Filter - I can't leave home without it.
It aint a ronny dahl video if he aint showing off that maxtrax abuse ;) I love it ronny! More and more outdoor intel for me! Thank you! Im starting fires a new way from now on.
I want the arm rest Soo baaadddd where where where!?
O dang. Okay well there the plug aha. On my way!
Where’s the arm rest made?
My List of ten essential camping items: 1. Carton of Beer, 2. Carton of Beer, 3. Carton of Beer, 4. Carton of Beer, 5. Carton of Beer, 6. Carton of Beer, 7. Carton of Beer, 8. Carton of Beer, 9. Carton of Beer, 10. Carton of Beer.
I liked the look of that torch and looked it up but it uses a micro-USB cable and I hate those so it is automatically off the list, USB-C only for me.
Yea! Ronny But the taste actually comes from the beans … not the peculator. So… you never mentioned the beans you use 😊. Go Figure 😊
If anyone finds a new production folding shovel that's as good as the old army ones, please let me know. The old ones are getting super hard to find, and all the new production ones I've found are cheap flimsy steel that don't hold up.
