I poorly review a cheap Walmart camping tool kit and actually tested it a little bit. If this video does well I will drive up and grab the 12 piece one.
The carabiners are actually very useful in survival gear. Most people, i find, are lost to the usage, building snares and traps 🪤. Or for camping 🏕️ you can use it to hang your food from a tree branch to prevent critters from getting it
I just bought this kit. Watched your video. Cause I was wondering how the fire started worked. Your video was very informative to me. I've never used a fire starter before.
To be honest out of the box I used the axe to cut chunks of wood I got outside a campground site here in the USA (West Coast). Got it to bite the wood enough to lift it off the ground and slam down repeat and got it going though after the first two bundles of gas station fire wood it took a possible second swing. Larger chunks I got the hatchet to bite then flipped it and slammed the hammer end down using the woods weight against the back end. Lasted a whole week so far minus a sharpening hatchet wise and that was using it for 3 separate weekends while at a Renaissance Faire here on the west coast of the U.S.
I got this kit for christmas one year! I never trust wire saws other then that with abit of honing the blades do fine for most tasks but id prefer a Scandinavian grind on the knife instead of the cheap chicom pocket knife grind it came with
@@SpaztasticTV because it ruins blades. Of any kind of quality. Dulls them and can chip. Use a knife with a 90 degree top of blade. Never use the cutting edge.
You can use the edge to strike the fire rod if you have to. Not all blades have 90 degrees sharp spine on top. big "tthimbs fown" ?? Learn how to write then you can graduate to logical thinking maybe.
Is this comedy?wire saw for wood useless, striking ferrocium rod with blade foolish,carabineers locking twists swell under Hatchet head. feathering sticks and fine pruning.compass useful only if desperate.research research.before demonstration.
Interesting stuff in that one. I use the carrabiners things for my keys. It's the reason why I haven't lost them yet.

I'm the best camping tool I know. That chain saw thing is more likely to hurt you than cut wood. I snapped it on the first pull.
I was considering this set which is currently $19.88 @Walmart online. Still am. Thanks for the review and the humor!
It's on sale at least for today for $15 (Dec 17, 2022)
Best review ever! Thank you.

Oooo man... U use the spine of your knife to strike a ferro rod... Not the sharp edge.
Yep.
Those walmart axe are great for hunting breaking the rib cage
Anyone else hate when people use the blade side of a knife for a Ferro rod?
I had a gift card from Christmas and bought this kit on sale for 23.90 its not a bad kit
It's a good gift for like a 12-year-old
Most of that stuff looks like it fell out of a piñata.
Never use the blade edge on a fire starter. Smh.. big thimbs fown
Why?

What Walmart did you get that one so I can get me one that's cool
Wal-Mart in Centerville, UT
much fun watching it. great job!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@SpaztasticTV I bought it do use water for the sharpener?
The saw is actually a bread knife.
Sorry man….. no saw
Are you sure the "knife sharpener" isn't mage of magnesium for shaving before lighting with the ferro rod?
It definitely isnt
The sharpener actually works great it even put on edge on the axe that was so dull out of the package it would strugle cutting butter
these where 29.99 today 1/28 15.00 got one for the hell of it
That is a really good deal
