How many days per year do you spend in the field? What activities do you engage in? Make sure to check out Jason Smith's knives and swords at Hobo Forge Survival
We spent atleast 30 days per year in the outback (not on our property) mostly observing the changes in surroundings, wildlife & native floras. We also practice & fine tune our bushcrafting & survival including first aid procedures.
I'm seventy-five, and I believe you're correct. A slow, scary decline is eliminating many people. Younger people may listen and learn. I've seen this era coming for over thirty years. Nobody agreed or thought it was even possible. Thanks for learning and trying to inform others.😊
My hunch as well. If there's any pattern over the decades (and if Bayesian analysis is applicable), it is one of steady decline; like a balloon deflating. However, the balloon analogy works the other way; if things get stretched/stressed, say, in ONE area (fuel costs for example) the balloon adapts - or can be patched, so no worries. But if there are _several_ simultaneous stresses (like the current trajectory, in my opinion) it could reach a breaking point wherein these interdependent systems fall apart; a cascading domino effect, perhaps started by something that would otherwise have been manageable. This is similar, I believe, to the human body's viral or bacterial "load"; a certain amount is tolerable, too much and it loses the battle. I'll be your age in a blink of an eye. Gotta prepare the kids - possibly grandkids. Things could get bad over the next decade or three.
Turned 30 recently, the past 15 years has been a real steady decline, but the past 5 years has declined even faster and I'm sure that soon thing would be disastrous. It's slowly but surely starting to become less linear and more exponential. Question isn't if and how, but when... May we all be best prepared for the time we'll need it 🙌
Younger people may listen and learn? Tell me more because my kids are all grown, even one just retired from the USMC as an officer and I keep telling them things that they still have not learned.
You are seventy five you may remember talking to someone about the great depression where millions of Americans were starving death and the only thing the government did was "stay inside there is a bad flu going around" 😂. There was no Spanish flu.
Enjoyed it. You can go 32-36 hours before starting to really want food. Caloric Fatigue comes in usually between 36-48 hours. Eat a meal at 48 hours and rest and you will bounce back. Don’t skimp on hydration. Not enough fluid intake and sodium will cause you fatigue way to soon..
I always use a pruner while out in the forest because it's very quiet to remove branches out of the way while stalking 🦌 deer and for getting a limb or brush out of the way for a shooting lane. So I think it's a good tool for being stealthy .
I use a hammock, a bivy and a couple of 'cut leaf" Amazon camo nets. when I"m not yet able to hide in my tunnel. Hang the hammock just 3" off of the ground, (with me in it) and the camo nets hide everything very well indeed. You don't want a camp. You want a tunnel to hide in and a bunch of pre-buried drums and buckets to hide gear and food in. Enemies should be able to step right on the lid of one of your tunnel entrances/spider holes and never notice it. You should have several Dakota fire pits for cooking, which you cover-over when you're done, having a fire only at night. The small fire needs to be 2 ft down in the pit, with an angled air-intake hole down to the coals. Around the vent-hole, you set up your bivy and it's camo-painted black plastic "envelope,". so that the firelight goes no place but straight up. The 18"x18" tunnel, 20m long, has a 3x3x 8 ft sleeping chamber halfway down its length, so you squat or kneel, to eliminate wastes into a dirt filled basket. You need to be able to sit up, doff or don clothing, and turn around, toss and turn as you sleep. stretch, etc, In the tunnel itself, there's only 1 ft of dirt over your head, but in the sleeping chamber, you need 2 ft of dirt, so that rifle bullets cant reach you, so that any noise you make is muffled and so that you stay warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Stuff the tunnel with dry debris at either end of the chamber, so as to keep-out cold/hot air and if it's cold, have a browse bed, made of 4 white sheets, $2 each from the thrift stores, which you sew into being two bags, which are sewn together. Stuff the sheet/bags with debris and use this browse bed as insulation/sleeping bag.. The white sheets will show you if there's snakes, ticks spiders, mold, fungi or other threats to your health and help prevent loss of small items of gear.
One of my other major factors to take into site selection. When near water allow for that water level rising quickly from rainfall or runoff from heavy rain even many miles away. If that water rises four even six feet that stream could change from a few yards to half a mile wide on flatter terrain. With an additional factor the ground you pick could be ok but check that it is not an isolated feature. Is there low ground behind and to each side of you. No point being ok for now only to find yourself cut off surrounded by rising water. In that case you can easily become ten mins pregnant. Always plan A with multiple fall back options. A problem can be handled. Multiple choices in all things especially in terms of approach and egress. They are your problem. You being prepared and aware gives them dilemmas. If you are predictable you are predeadable.
Simply thank you... I do have the similar mindset even though I have never been military..but growing up in the woods hiking camping and hunting 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲👍👍👍 and I do appreciate and thank you for your time sacrifice and service... Blessed Be to you and your family 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲❤️❤️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲👍
The way I have understood this also having some SERE training is this: Any area that you go into, no matter where it is in the woods, your eyes will naturally go to specific areas that you are walking into. You want to get low in an area that your eyes will not naturally go. Preferably, behind a small natural berm-
One must consider thermal and inferred when hiding these days, so it is a whole new ball game staying concealed as well as tracking dogs if there is a real army after your person. Being stealthy isn't as easy as it once was.
know it's extra weight, but a robust secateur with a gear ratio would work on branches up to 1 inch if you don't want to be heard when you cut branches, etc.
I like these new screened room products that are available in all sizes. They come with ties sewed on. Not just for mosquitos but bull ants too for people in more tropical regions. You can disappear in the holly bush/trees down here & be so unseen. Great info and appreciate your insights.
I see a lot of people claiming "noise noise noise..!!" The reality is this, yes we do need to be quiet, however sound doesnt travel as you think it does, here is a good exercise to get my point across, put up your tarp in the rain and then sit under it.. some tarps are louder than others, but all tarps have noise.. now, walk away from that tarp as its raining, it doesnt take too many steps before the noise of the tarp blends in with the noise of the rain hitting everything else.. as long as the noise you produce is the same as all the other noise around you, you can get away with being louder without being heard.. btw, this is noise pollution..
When I first started stalking I was surprised how close I was getting to deer when I was sure none were around, I’d be pretty damn loud usually on my way out of the woods or just not being quiet and suddenly a deer burst out from 15 yards away. I started paying attention and sound just seems to die after a few feet in the woods. Most sound anyway. If I saw a deer first coming towards me I wouldn’t hear it for quite a while
@@theabhorrentchef7226 agreed, it's not popular to tell the truth though.. most people get more views, clicks, likes, comments and such when they talk like a "super stalker".. I do feel like it's important to be quiet as I said before, but people take it to an extreme in story telling.. and when I hear them talk I immediately know it's a load of crap..
I would like to see a video on what to do after a nuclear blast has occurred and you have survived and still need to get home from wherever 30 to 60 + kms. What gear to carry, when to move, different shelters to provide and protect, how to make potential fallout water safe to drink, how to eat during or after a blast ect. Nuclear war scenario is now at the top of the list.
Not so much with your elevated hooch since you have plenty of light shining in underneath, but with a lower shelter like a plowpoint or a lean-to, you have to watch for the cavernous shadow also giving you away in a well-lit scenario. Maybe consider camo netting over the front or natural material to give the light something to hit and light it up to blend the dark hidey-hole with its lighted surroundings.
I really like what he pointed out. Get out and test out and try out gear. I've seen other channels and other people say this. And I was like "duh". But, ever since I first start hearing this, it amazes me how many people I see, some I even know personally, get the "thing" and think they will be good. Now I have stuff I haven't gotten to use/try yet because I haven't had the time yet, but I do know how to use the stuff if it comes down to it. I know people that say they don't have time and in their spare time they are playing video games, they are playing on their phones, etc. I get that every now and then you just need a mental break. I heard recently you are always being educated or entertained. Even when you are teaching or putting into practice you are being educated. And if you apply the same principle Jocko says for working out for everything in life, one will be amazed at the progress in a month, 6 months, a year. Put off rest for another day (unless you absolutely need to rest). The "off day" will come naturally. If someone is really spending their time learning all the things the need to know, they will realize that the limiting factor is always time.
They're OK but not great. I went to use the pliers and one side snapped right off. Rather have part of a bow saw blade in my bag with one of the small screw driver sets with the parts in the handle. You can even take a small needle nose pliers and all 3 weigh less than the leatherman if you EDC pouch. I do walk around the yard or store with a cheap version sometimes though that never snapped yet. Carry a folding pruning saw as well in the bag.
@johnpoole8321 Yep, I know what you mean. Especially with smaller leathermans. I have the big leatherman surge. The only thing I've broken on it is the small flathead screwdriver. Note to self: it's a screwdriver, not a pry-bar😬. As for EDC pouches. Not my thing. My Glock 26 hanging on my belt is enough. Much more on my belt, I'll look like the Michelin Man.
I hoboed around for a while in my youth, hitchhiking etc a safe place to sleep was essential, but sometimes problematic, especially in semi urban environments , but doable 😎
Tick season is actually in full force already in Virginia. Not sure about where you are filming. What are using to keep the little buggers at bay? Great video!!
And this is how I've been learning to practice using a compass is on our family property I know it like the back of my hand but it's big and if I can set locations and can't get there with my compass and I know what I did wrong and I can start from the beginning again until I figure it out properly then wants the locations using strictly only a compass and map setup if I can navigate using only those tools paste beads so on then I could comfortably go out in the woods and start doing that as well until it's second nature
You should also show how to counter your heat tracks from FLIR searches, the way you hide your heat tracks is by using unnatural and natural heat guards, the unnatural heat guards would be a doubled wall aluminum barrier you can purchase from home improvement stores, that comes on rolls, the natural way to hide body heat, is by getting into a hole of any sort, and covering the hole using large rocks, the rocks store cool and heat, and takes a while for that cool or heat to change, so cool rocks over a hot hole, will cool down the heat coming from the hole, and will cause a cool image to appear on a FLIR screen.
Being able to hide your heat signiture is essential in protecting yourself from the later two stages of the gravloid the shrieker and the assblaster. :)
This dude is a legit force multiplier. Absolutely solid advice. However the FLIR thermal conversion is legit. Most likely this minimal shelter situation would be for an evasion scenario where an OPFOR woupd absolutely have this ability to search for thermal signature. These thermal scopes and such are way more prevalent and are owned by more and more civilians. The prices have come way down.
The lighter your gear needs, the higher your survival and hunting skills, the more you have SA, the more you know your environment within 100 miles the more likely you can move strategically and stealthily. Leave no trace. 5 minute grab and go SHTF gear and pack. Watch old shows like surviver man, dual survival, etc.
To be honest the only time I had to be invisable is in a sniper team thevrest of the time as he stateed you want to create a big foot print so the bad guys think I'm not playing with that
QUESTION, Lets say you are being hunted by people like you who have had training on how to find you but these men are bad guys from another country or perhaps just some trained guys gone bad how do we avoid being tracked and not found by them ? Will you do a video on this subject ?
If there's any pattern over the decades, it is one of steady decline; like a balloon deflating. If Bayesian analysis is applicable, this will continue. However, the balloon analogy works the other way; if things get stretched/stressed, say, in ONE area (fuel costs for example) the balloon adapts - or can be patched, so no worries. But if there are _several_ simultaneous stresses (like the current trajectory, in my opinion) it could reach a breaking point wherein these interdependent systems fall apart; a cascading domino effect, perhaps started by something that would otherwise have been manageable. This is similar, I believe, to the human body's viral or bacterial "load"; a certain amount is tolerable, too much and it loses the battle.
Yes, there has been a continuous decline for many decades. My thoughts are that this continues but that this decline will work the same as compound interest does on savings. Changes will come more quickly and violently. The evidence of this type of societal decline can be observed in humanity's expanding depravity.
What a strange form of paranoia. I lived through 6 years of utter, destructive, horrific war. Actually a war. There's no such thing in history as a dystopian decline. We aren't wired for that. Humans are literally driven (biologically) towards orgunizing structures. This is a fun fantasy that most preppers would be the first to not actually survive. I bushcraft and do primitive survival because it keeps me outdoors and is a great way to be active an safe in the wilderness. But you can't hide from today's technology man. That's a very childish notion. You should see the tech that my country uses to detect illegal migrants deep in the woods of the Alps, from vast, vast distances. Politics change, social orders change, national structures change... but humans always converge onto a point that brings order of some kind. Your greatest resource are humans. Your tribe. Your group. When trained together, we do great things.
Bad things are coming one day. People will be seized. The kinds that do not think you continue on when your body dies, and that He's not there, will ultimately have a harder time. We come from and return back to this massive white light (a star perhaps) far through space a very long way. This crowd of so many souls all look at him, he stands there with his eyes closed hands by his side and looking down. His hair appeared curly with a rounded-bushy look to it. That's Jesus, and he sends us here and we agree to it. He'll show you who your parents look like as well. You're taken to the edge of this light, when he holds his hand out towards space, you turn towards it and are pulled a long way through it towards Earth. You go straight into Earth directly towards your mom's stomach, and the moment you do, you see this darkness and is the same kind you see the moment your body dies, before you leave it to be pulled back to this white light. Dying is nothing to be feared, we're a soul that uses these bodies in order to experience and do as needed and wanted in this physical world. Our actions, or lack there of contributes to these cycles and when we continue to be so involved with things of the Earth that we do things that leads us to suffer or cause others to suffer in some way. We're given things to do, we learn many lessons which we sometimes may have to rectify. We get to experience and do things here, but we allow ourselves to become to clouded and misguided that we always end up in these sorts of scenarios. Not everyone will handle all that's learned or seen over the years. We give the fuel the wicked need to thrive, as man is corrupt or corruptible and we give them our everything at times and uphold them high on a pedestal while we suffer and are further confused and lead to hate one another. The Lord is our way. Walk that path less traveled(to be less worldly) is to consider and understand why we're here, and that our stay is temporary. We can make things good for ourselves, but we rather succumb to the "shineys" of the world and our time here is turbulent(varying degrees.)It's to realize what's more important and to not be so ingrained in hive-minded ways that keeps us locked into a low paradigm where we act and feel little more than animals to the point where most even forget themselves and where they come from and where they're going back to. Our future will become wonderful one day, but you must want it. We will go through dark, confusing, brutal times before then. Then, one day it'll all be worth it. God Bless.
The best thing you could use in a scenario is what God gave us and is scarce these days is common sense.with that and a little knowledge u can travel far.
Would you ever use a pre-built shelter in a SHTF/grid down scenario? And would you please do a video on that? And an urban stealth camp video would be cool.
Normals is a fart in a sleeping bag not nice.i carry a hawk and a Gerber machete with a saw on the back so I'm abnormal. And a pepperball launcher for 2 legged and 4 legged problems with 8 gram riot balls. Great for squirrel and rabbit.
I don't understand why they don't bring the blanket off and Hatchet Tomahawk Hatchet whatever you want to call it small axe I'm trying to bring one tool to do everything when a hatchet can already do most of those things that a big knife can only do some what okay if you get a proper Tomahawk or Hatchet you can scan with them chop with them many many big tasks and you have one or two small blades with you that you use for little tasks there's always more than one tool for the job what's my name to start bringing a tomahawk or a hatchet more often will along with their knife for (knives)
You might want to consider a kukri. And they aren't expensive either. After I showed some officers what I could do with it they let me bring it on field exercises. We were engineers, assigned to a leg infantry outfit. So we were often far from our big tool boxes.
I've applied to join the international legion of defence for Ukraine. Hope to go in August, really appreciate you sharing information, always been a fan. Respect from UK 🇬🇧🌱🌲👍😎💪🔥
If that's what u want to do best of luck to you but I hope you truly understand the situation over there.cause I don't think you do.anyway..be smart whatever you do

Rub a little dirt on the fresh cut to conceal if you're worried about tracking. Not 100% foolproof but it buys time.

Kool you was about 3 and a half hours away from me awesome video
Very Good Guys !! Jason Smith makes Awesome Grail to Me Quality Knives i hope to get one when i can
I'll have to look this guy up, Cameron NC is only 5-10 miles away. Shoot, we probably in same area code!
I like these new screened room products that are available in all sizes. They come with ties sewed on. Not just for mosquitos but bull ants too for people in more tropical regions. You can disappear in the holly bush/trees down here & be so unseen. Great info and appreciate your insights.

I past along to a lot of people
Glad it was helpful!
Another great video see ya on the next one
Thanks 👍
13:15 Personally, this is why I EDC a Leatherman with a saw. If I'm deliberately going into the woods, my Silky Gomboy is in my bag or pack.
They're OK but not great. I went to use the pliers and one side snapped right off. Rather have part of a bow saw blade in my bag with one of the small screw driver sets with the parts in the handle. You can even take a small needle nose pliers and all 3 weigh less than the leatherman if you EDC pouch.

You are welcome!
Thanks for the instructions.

Keep a couple emergency blankets they will block thermal
Glad you found a use for that privet. I hate them.
Yeah, it makes a pretty thick barrier.
More great content, stuff I'll practice on my next outing
Good video, thanks!
Big loppers would help a lot, they get things done fast.
I take chain saws. What?
Tick season is actually in full force already in Virginia. Not sure about where you are filming. What are using to keep the little buggers at bay? Great video!!
space blanket will cover some of the body heat.
Thanks fellows
chopping is inefficient and dangerous. It's also noisy. A saw is none of those things.
💯! And you lower the risk of injury.
And this is how I've been learning to practice using a compass is on our family property I know it like the back of my hand but it's big and if I can set locations and can't get there with my compass and I know what I did wrong and I can start from the beginning again until I figure it out properly then wants the locations using strictly only a compass and map setup if I can navigate using only those tools paste beads so on then I could comfortably go out in the woods and start doing that as well until it's second nature
Gave him a follow , working a double today so I’ll have time to catch up later lol
Nice content. Good knowledge explained well.
What would you do in the case of a snake bite? And what about falling trees? And what if there was a bush fire?
You should also show how to counter your heat tracks from FLIR searches, the way you hide your heat tracks is by using unnatural and natural heat guards, the unnatural heat guards would be a doubled wall aluminum barrier you can purchase from home improvement stores, that comes on rolls, the natural way to hide body heat, is by getting into a hole of any sort, and covering the hole using large rocks, the rocks store cool and heat, and takes a while for that cool or heat to change, so cool rocks over a hot hole, will cool down the heat coming from the hole, and will cause a cool image to appear on a FLIR screen.
AWESOME
Great video guys
Thanks so much!
Being able to hide your heat signiture is essential in protecting yourself from the later two stages of the gravloid the shrieker and the assblaster. :)
This dude is a legit force multiplier. Absolutely solid advice. However the FLIR thermal conversion is legit. Most likely this minimal shelter situation would be for an evasion scenario where an OPFOR woupd absolutely have this ability to search for thermal signature. These thermal scopes and such are way more prevalent and are owned by more and more civilians. The prices have come way down.
The lighter your gear needs, the higher your survival and hunting skills, the more you have SA, the more you know your environment within 100 miles the more likely you can move strategically and stealthily. Leave no trace. 5 minute grab and go SHTF gear and pack. Watch old shows like surviver man, dual survival, etc.
Good stuff
Hi Jason what did he have hidden in his pack for shelter/sleeping thx?
In NC its winter but what about insects while camping w/o enclosed tent?
Army surplus headnet, permethrin spray for clothing against ticks.
@@q-man762 ok
Good discussion and information. Would lining a shelter with a section of mylar emergency blanket make a difference against thermal detection?
I thought it might block thermal but read the following "your body heat will accumulate inside, or leak out, which will then be visible to IR images."
Excellent video, thank you! Where can i get a grail. Water bottle/purifier?
You can find them online easy enough. Stores like REI will carry them as well. It is spelled Grayl.
To be honest the only time I had to be invisable is in a sniper team thevrest of the time as he stateed you want to create a big foot print so the bad guys think I'm not playing with that
Don't keep ur gear behind if u think ur safe and be bear safe with ur food & don't move in
Let's talk about tics spiders such I smudged my shelter short time wrkd 4 me
One thing to think about is does my tarp make an unnatural sound in the wind or rain.
Good point
Not discounting the SERE/military aspect of this, every good stealth camper knows all these things and practices them.
QUESTION, Lets say you are being hunted by people like you who have had training on how to find you but these men are bad guys from another country or perhaps just some trained guys gone bad how do we avoid being tracked and not found by them ? Will you do a video on this subject ?
Great Chanel Thx
NPE? huh? Related to carrying?
Hopefully , people can remember to put their campfires out!!!
If there's any pattern over the decades, it is one of steady decline; like a balloon deflating. If Bayesian analysis is applicable, this will continue.
However, the balloon analogy works the other way; if things get stretched/stressed, say, in ONE area (fuel costs for example) the balloon adapts - or can be patched, so no worries. But if there are _several_ simultaneous stresses (like the current trajectory, in my opinion) it could reach a breaking point wherein these interdependent systems fall apart; a cascading domino effect, perhaps started by something that would otherwise have been manageable. This is similar, I believe, to the human body's viral or bacterial "load"; a certain amount is tolerable, too much and it loses the battle.
Safety glasses and gloves
Yes, there has been a continuous decline for many decades. My thoughts are that this continues but that this decline will work the same as compound interest does on savings. Changes will come more quickly and violently. The evidence of this type of societal decline can be observed in humanity's expanding depravity.
What a strange form of paranoia.
I lived through 6 years of utter, destructive, horrific war. Actually a war.
There's no such thing in history as a dystopian decline. We aren't wired for that. Humans are literally driven (biologically) towards orgunizing structures.
This is a fun fantasy that most preppers would be the first to not actually survive. I bushcraft and do primitive survival because it keeps me outdoors and is a great way to be active an safe in the wilderness.
But you can't hide from today's technology man. That's a very childish notion. You should see the tech that my country uses to detect illegal migrants deep in the woods of the Alps, from vast, vast distances.
Politics change, social orders change, national structures change... but humans always converge onto a point that brings order of some kind.
Your greatest resource are humans. Your tribe. Your group. When trained together, we do great things.
speak for yourself. Now you can pat yourself on the back. ...
Bad things are coming one day. People will be seized. The kinds that do not think you continue on when your body dies, and that He's not there, will ultimately have a harder time.
We come from and return back to this massive white light (a star perhaps) far through space a very long way. This crowd of so many souls all look at him, he stands there with his eyes closed hands by his side and looking down. His hair appeared curly with a rounded-bushy look to it. That's Jesus, and he sends us here and we agree to it. He'll show you who your parents look like as well. You're taken to the edge of this light, when he holds his hand out towards space, you turn towards it and are pulled a long way through it towards Earth. You go straight into Earth directly towards your mom's stomach, and the moment you do, you see this darkness and is the same kind you see the moment your body dies, before you leave it to be pulled back to this white light. Dying is nothing to be feared, we're a soul that uses these bodies in order to experience and do as needed and wanted in this physical world.
Our actions, or lack there of contributes to these cycles and when we continue to be so involved with things of the Earth that we do things that leads us to suffer or cause others to suffer in some way. We're given things to do, we learn many lessons which we sometimes may have to rectify.
We get to experience and do things here, but we allow ourselves to become to clouded and misguided that we always end up in these sorts of scenarios.
Not everyone will handle all that's learned or seen over the years. We give the fuel the wicked need to thrive, as man is corrupt or corruptible and we give them our everything at times and uphold them high on a pedestal while we suffer and are further confused and lead to hate one another. The Lord is our way. Walk that path less traveled(to be less worldly) is to consider and understand why we're here, and that our stay is temporary. We can make things good for ourselves, but we rather succumb to the "shineys" of the world and our time here is turbulent(varying degrees.)It's to realize what's more important and to not be so ingrained in hive-minded ways that keeps us locked into a low paradigm where we act and feel little more than animals to the point where most even forget themselves and where they come from and where they're going back to.
Our future will become wonderful one day, but you must want it. We will go through dark, confusing, brutal times before then. Then, one day it'll all be worth it.
God Bless.
The best thing you could use in a scenario is what God gave us and is scarce these days is common sense.with that and a little knowledge u can travel far.
Would you ever use a pre-built shelter in a SHTF/grid down scenario? And would you please do a video on that? And an urban stealth camp video would be cool.
Normals is a fart in a sleeping bag not nice.i carry a hawk and a Gerber machete with a saw on the back so I'm abnormal.
And a pepperball launcher for 2 legged and 4 legged problems with 8 gram riot balls. Great for squirrel and rabbit.

Good info snake eater
Two Words (Airborne F.L.I.R.).... lol🎉😂
I don't understand why they don't bring the blanket off and Hatchet Tomahawk Hatchet whatever you want to call it small axe I'm trying to bring one tool to do everything when a hatchet can already do most of those things that a big knife can only do some what okay if you get a proper Tomahawk or Hatchet you can scan with them chop with them many many big tasks and you have one or two small blades with you that you use for little tasks there's always more than one tool for the job what's my name to start bringing a tomahawk or a hatchet more often will along with their knife for (knives)
You might want to consider a kukri. And they aren't expensive either. After I showed some officers what I could do with it they let me bring it on field exercises. We were engineers, assigned to a leg infantry outfit. So we were often far from our big tool boxes.

Unless you were only using this as an example of what and how to build, this was a total waste of time.
I wish you guys had talked less and done more.
Are these guys ever going to quit the circle jerk & actually demonstrate something?
Watch the video genius. ...
I don't know if you realize you look just like Muhammad bin Salman Saudi Crown Prince?😅
