Great content, as always! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

Do you load that 22 through that slot in the stock? What kind? I have one similiar from the 60's. Was my grandpa's, is a "westernfield"... drives tacs!

Great tips brother

Algorithm comment 😎

I'm really lovin processing fatwood with my dads bandsaw, got about a cheap 2qt stuffsack full of 6" x 1/2" (or close to it, I just eye'd the size) pieces with a couple pieces in each pack I have, enough to last a lifetime.

I got a couple new cob pipes for Christmas... I don't have any Kinnikinnick though...haven't had any for probably 20-25 years. In fact I haven't smoked a pipe in many years. I used to keep clay pipes in my possibles bag for nostalgia/reenactment, but as I mentioned before I'm getting out of muzzleloading almost entirely due to getting older and not having opportunities anymore. My favorite Alabama Squirrel loads have always been 12 ga. 2.75" #6 anywhere from 7/8 oz to 1-1/4 oz depending on time of year or foliage. I like 16,20,28,410 as well though and rimfires, but like you said as far as shotshells 12's are more economical although it doesn't really matter to me because I handload/reload everything. You mentioned economy brands...back in the 70's we considered Federal shotshells to be cheap garbage. We used Winchester and UMC/Remington mainly and cheap shells acceptable were things like mohawk for example. Shells had different sized primers back then too so we had to have different primers on hand to reload them. I love 7.5 and 8 shot for birds, but have killed many a squirrel with the smaller stuff as well.

Come up and squirrel hunt with me dude.

Update on tarps?

Sorry I'm late but good evening

I think its a lot easier to stake down the two back tie outs, then raise the trekking pole and stake and tie it out, then stake out the front two tie-outs. Once thats done you can then adjust the rear two if needed.

Now try it on a fresh piece with a flick lighter

Looks like a Green River Dadley. Been around for 150 years or so

Great discussion

I have an ESEE PR4 and love it. I think it has a thicker spine than the original kephart style, but also a taller blade that allows a fairly thin edge. I also prefer a rounded spine for comfort, which the pr4 doesn't have, but I've rounded the back of the blade at the heel where my thumb naturally falls so I have the best of both worlds now. Classic simple designs stick around for good reason and work. Tried and true. The Green River Dexter-Russell 4215 is one of these, still made the same after a couple of centuries. The Canadian Belt Knife style elliptical blade like Grohmann makes is an interesting one. I chose a Knives Of Alaska yukon model, and am impressed with how comfortable and capable it is for skinning/processing game. My favorite in camp knife is the Morakniv Mora2000. It doesn't have the old timey aesthetic, but is a superb all-around lightweight tool that I think is a modern classic.

"Bushcraft" is a cool outdoor hobby. And many "bushcraft" skills can be useful in a survival situation. But....most "bushcrafters", if caught in a bad situation with or without all their cute little gadgets. Will have a hard time. A good knife, a bic lighter, a decent tarp and something to boil water in. All good. Everything else is glamping gadgets for role playing survival

I do alot of teaching & seem to give away alot of Fatwood. The look of amazement on people's faces is more than worth it. This looks like good stuff. I'm so sure it is so I ordered 4 bundles of it. Just Love this stuff. Thank You Guys. 10:29

Sorry bout the misspells. Dang phone.

A Kephart is a simple looking knife but extremely difficult to make because because from the belly the to the back or the blade decreases a 1/16 if an inch and increase cutting /slicing power. It is not the greatest knife. No one said that. But people have been using a green river knife and an old hickory forever. Knives are not used for batoning. That’s what a hatchet is used for . Thanks for posting.

I have owned dozens and dozens of Kephart knives. It has been my favorite style for as long as I can remember. Pick you up a Matt Lesniewski Kephart from ML Knives and you have found the holy grail of knives!

Looks good!

It's also a knockoff of a Green River knife.

Would like to see the how to clean it in the field have you made that video yet

I agree with you 💯 % hands down . I purchased the Bark River Kephart CPM3V 5inch with black scales and red liners. Took me 3 years of research and trial experience to make the best decision for me . I've now EDC'd this knife for 4 years with absolutely no doubt or regret. I've never once had to resharpen it only run it over a few times with a ceramic rod and yhen stropped it on a leather belt with green polishing compound. Best knife I've used. And I use it in the kitchen, outdoors, camping and even at work . I am able to carry it concealed under the belt on a slant cross draw sheath and it causes no concern ( out of site ,out of mind ) . I very much appreciate and agree with your reasons on the blade and fire. I use old fashioned large diamond matches .and always carry a matchsafe full of storm matches. Never have any problems with fire . I also have fatwood available all around Georgia lol 😂 makes it rady for a one match fire .

You shared an honest opinion of someone who is in the field all the time and not a weekend or keyboard warrior. Thank you. Stay safe!

Have you ever had any issues with the geopress? Ive heard stories about them clogging very easy. What do you like about more then a gravity feed filter? I use a membrane solutions an i also have a sawyer. I use the membrane because its rebuildable and has a carbon filter. But im always looking for something different.

Good stuff 🇺🇸 🇳🇿

Good video, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !

Gotta love Fatwood. I've got Fatwood from all over. Hard to source it here

Yessir Gotta love a good trapper or moose pattern pocketknife. Very useable and most are affordable so you don't have to baby it

No bull just old fashioned common sense.

If u can every get the barkriver version give it a try

I could not agree more with you about a rounded spine. Makes doing push cuts and etcetera some much more comfortable. I am a traditional primitive camper that relies on flint and steel. Another good choice going even farther back in time is a 6 inch butcher like a green river. That is what I carry for my do all woods knife.

I have had the Becker Kephart knife since shortly after it came out I have also had the Condor Kephart... I do like it but there are better options IMO, the Becker Kephart is a great butchering and skinning knife and woodcraft knife... I have even cleaned fish with it, I filed the spine flat so it will strike a ferro rod it's not that hard to do a kid can do it... Number 1 reason, I use to hog hunt with dogs had to give it up for the most part and I have to have a knife that's more capable for taking game dogs have caught... For that reason the Kephart it stinks , it also stinks as a self defense knife if you can't stick a hog I wouldn't want it in a self defense situation but it be better than nothing... I know I have tried to stick multiple hogs and even one deer to finish it off even after trying file the point to modify it, you still can't stick a hog with it... I have taken thousands of hogs mostly with a knife, I like to carry a 5-6 inch, drop point, or bowie stile blade... I am starting to prefer the scandi grind for a all around knife but flat grind is probably my second favorite... That way you have one knife thats capable of sticking skinning and deboning game in the field and a great self defense weapon... A lot of the hogs were so far in we couldn't bring them out whole and we hunted off of mules put the meat in game bags tie it to the saddle... I have rode a mule myself packing out a deboned hog or 3 depending on how many we caught and how big they were and led 3 dogs off each side of my mule tied to my breast strap... I actually prefer the old Cold Steel Carbon V series knives or their San Mai series , in the SRK or a Master Hunter... I had a Condor Jungle Bowie 2 I really liked but I lost it while hog hunting... I like the Case Trapper or Canoe or Sodbuster knives for pocket knives... Or a Buck 110 or 112 or Case Mako or Shark Tooth lockblades.... I have a USA made Old Timer Bowie style knife with a 5 and a half inch stainless blade that I absolutely wore out got into the soft steel won't hold a edge anymore... I have a Condor Tavian same deal wore it out I carried it a lot hog hunting and everyday carry I skinned and processed lots of deer and hogs and squirrels and raccoons with it also... I have a Stainless Mora Companion that has kinda took over as my everyday carry now I really like it...

KA-BAR has created an excellent blade reproduction of the Kephart knife with the BK-62. The blade is certainly capable and KA-BAR has offered an improved knife handle that brings this historic knife design into the modern woodsman consumer market. The only issue that some have with the KA-BAR BK-62 is the price point of around $260.00 retail with walnut handle scales. While the BK-62 works, it is relatively expensive for a lot of woodscraft consumers. As an alternative, that is almost as effective at woodsman tasks, yet more affordable, I would suggest the Old Hickory (Kephart style) Fish and Small Game Knife 4" Carbon Steel Blade, Leather Sheath - #7024. While the Old Hickory version is slightly smaller, with a thinner blade than the BK-62 it is still a very capable knife. The biggest advantage the #7020 has over the BK-62 is the price point coming in at under $40.00 retail. Of course the biggest drawback with the #7024 is availability. OKC has been closed for over a year now and production does not seem to be restarting anytime soon. So finding one of the Old Hickory (Kephart style) Fish and Small Game Knife is not an easy task. As far as I know the KA-BAR BK62 is readily available on the retail market. So, I greatly appreciate your review and endorsement of the BK-62 here and I do look forward to more content on the use of this Kephart style of knife.

A good rule for a working knife, KISS. Kephart style fall square in that group.

I love my trappers my brother so much its his main blade weve done 4 or 5 deer with just two case trappers .i love kephart design ontario black bird series were great tactical kepharts my go to belt is a french trade by jeff white or dean olivers english trade

Thats a trapper pocket knife bud

I like the food roll, the no compromise fire kit, and water kit. What are using for cooking for pan or pot?

Have you done any testing with your Pietta pistol yet? that model won't take any conicals that I know of except the Kerr bullet. I have a custom Kerr mold for mine and have this gun with 4 7/8", 7.5", and 12" barrels, but my short barreled model (like yours except steel frame) I modified my gun to take other conicals as well. I also polished my chambers etc. on that one and call it my yard gun. I came really close to doing a gated conversion for 45 Colt and using it with Schofield or even ACP length shortened cases, but I elected to keeping it as is due to the arbor design mainly. I have Remington models I converted to 45 Colt and one in ACP. Anyway I have another old Ideal mold that does a rebated hollow base bullet ( hollow base Keith looking bullet) originally designed for the 1858 Remington pistols they Imported in the 70's and it works well for even modern cartridges in revolvers and semi automatics, but my favorite conical bullet for these revolvers is the LEE precision bullet. I sold my original Colt mold collection, but kept a few bullets from them and there are replica bullets on the market, but they don't work as well as modern designs like the LEE and there are hunting bullet molds available too, but not much benefit in the 51 style revolvers because you can't stuff enough powder in the Colt cylinders to benefit. I looked through your vids hoping to find some testing and your thoughts on them. I got addicted to these things 40 years ago and have taken game with them...they are a ton of fun.

So you say the knife doesn't need to strike a ferro rod...ok, why do you need to process wood with it...aka baton.. you say they're other ways to start a fire....true....they're other was to split wood as well!
