    Highest quality self made kit I've seen.
    My first line addresses the toenail issue with actual clippers. People say it's dumb, but I've asked the weight for it.
    Another important knowledge piece is HOW to cut nails. Most never learned. Straight across and passed the outer skin to prevent ingrown toenails

    Nice video man. Just found ya today, glad I did! This was quality unlike most other “woodsman” type videos out there. Some people have it and some don’t…you seem to have the idea down

    I picked up the T6zero with a discount. It’s expensive, but super light and compact. I keep it in my chest rig. The pov camera on your head was good for me. Keep it up!

    Hi
    I liked your video and gear assortment. All of the gear is usable without any junk. It seems the difference is this is gear that you actually use and not the gear that you have seen on RUclips and repeating what you have seen and heard others say. When I watch other videos, I can tell the difference between posers and people who walk the walk. I usually cutout after a minute when the people showing gear and why they are choosing it, are not authentic. I Just subd, looking forward to see more. Thanks for the video. The 893

      Awesome, thanks. Yeah, there are a lot of people who don't really practice the skills. But yeah I have thoroughly tested every item in my kit. I hope to give a different light on bushcraft and survival that has largely been lost.

    I have my set in 3 small bags that are easy to switch from bag to bag. The 3 along are all i need to survive a few nights minus the shelter and sleep gear.
    Hill people gear looks nice by to expensive for me. Im a disabled vet still fighting VA but living off regular disability.
    I use a condor pack i really love it. It beats many of the other name brands.
    People get hungup on gear. In reality youtube fogged my vision for a while. I wanted the latest and greatest. Hard on a small fixed income so. I did without.
    Ive ended up like when i was a boyscout. Good gear if something breaks i get something different. If something doesn't ever get used i don't need it.
    The best way is the only way go camping/hiking.
    Collecting gear is never as good as using stuff.
    The more you train the less you need. Fear makes for a heavy pack.
    Nice video i was on a roll thanks for reading.
    I really like your opinion on a saw.
    I recommend practicing making a bow saw. We used to do that years ago. We only carried saw blades. Back in the 80-90 folding saws were very rare. Still a great skill.

    • @wildwest_woodscraft
      @wildwest_woodscraft  2 месяца назад +2

      Yeah, organizing your gear is super important it will keep you from forgetting something. I am a big fan of American made gear and hill people gear is from my home state. It's also the absolute best suspension system I've ever used. However, there are cheaper options depending on how much you use it. The skills are far more important. I am 22. I have few expenses, and rather than wasting my money, I have chosen to invest in good gear. I am working towards being a full-time instructor, so this is more than a hobby for me. I don't just collect gear. Everything I have is hard use. I also don't have a lot of gear. If I want to switch something up, I will sell or giveaway the old stuff. Yes, I have made bow and buck saws, but I personally want something ready to use because if someone is going Hypothermic, I don't have time to mess with building something they need fire now. Thanks for watching and all the great feedback. Hang tough with your struggles. I'm glad you can still get out in the outdoors.

    I have the T6zero too. It goes in my emergency kit for dayhiking mainly because of it's small size and weight. Obviously haven't used it (touch wood) apart from some trial setups in the backyard being an emergency item. Nice to hear feedback from someone using it more regularly.

    • @richardhenry1969
      @richardhenry1969 2 месяца назад +1

      I carry the $19 5×7 from Walmart. Great trap for emergencies. I treaded mine just to be safe. It folds up so small I always have it. With my poncho as well.

    • @wildwest_woodscraft
      @wildwest_woodscraft  2 месяца назад

      I love it. So far, it's been durable enough for plusing up my bivy. Obviously, I don't use it near a fire.

    • @wildwest_woodscraft
      @wildwest_woodscraft  2 месяца назад +1

      There are cheaper options depending on how much you use it and your environment. I used cheaper tarps for years, but nothing I found Packs down as small, as light weight, but still durable as the t60.

    • @richardhenry1969
      @richardhenry1969 2 месяца назад +1

      @wildwest_woodscraft I guess the hard part for me is not seeing one to actually compare. But I also live by if it ain't broke do fix it. We both have different ways of doing the same thing. The best part about outdoors is nobody wrong as long as it works for you.

    Nice vid, left you a like and sub. I only disagree on one point, i always prefer a fixed blade over a multitool. Greetings from Germany, Phil

    • @wildwest_woodscraft
      @wildwest_woodscraft  2 месяца назад +1

      I agree 100%, but most people don't use a fixed blade, and I personally can do everything my fixed blade does with the Leatherman. However, there is a reason I carry both. I don't agree with the one tool option as far as I know this has never been done through history. Thanks for the sub and comment. Cool, you are from Germany, which is an environment I have no experience in.

    • @wildwest_woodscraft
      @wildwest_woodscraft  2 месяца назад +1

      Also, I don't want anyone to just copy what I carry because, depending on the environment and skills, it will be different for everyone. As long as you can prevent/treat injuries to include stayinghydrated, navigate, maintain your body core temperature, and signal that's all you need in a survival kit. As long as you have practiced with it there is no one way.

    Nice job. Throw some rubber gloves in, for first aid and gutting squirrels. Also I may have missed but do you have extra contacts or stuff to service/clean them if issues arise.
