      Read that Highland Scots in America, traveled into areas, intermarriage in a tribe or so, had no trouble surviving. The Chisolm trail was named after a family that moved cattle , the family Sots and Indian , don't remember which tribe. Book is Trails West by Ralph Moody, printed by a University press, in the 1950's. I know that sounds vague, but the variety of information fascinating.

    There’s something neat about how a lot of old cultures would have a specialized knife which they put huge traditional significance on. The Scottish have that dirk, the Samurai had the Tanto, the Gurkhas have the Kukri, and so on. I’m of Apache ancestry and they put cultural significance on the axes they carried. My grandfather has dozens of Tomahawks hanging on his wall.
    I’m not sure what it is, but I’m deeply fascinated by the specialized tools and weapons of old cultures. Seeing that dirk gave me that same fascination. Great video!

      And the Sikhs used a larger sword called a Kirpan, which is similar to a katana (Japanese word for 'sword') in the curvature rather than a straight thrust style sword like the Scottish versions, though a Sikh were always permitted to wear Kirpan at all times, even when sleeping with it and bathing with it, it must by with them at all times. They wore this with the rest of the five K articles of faith, they also use the name of 'Singh' (Sanskrit for 'Lion'), the idea was that a Sikh is like a lion, they fight as one as well as take the name of one and exude the same spirit as one (they look after the pride), the logic they used to use was that a man with cut hair (kesh) is like a lion without his mane, the lion is also known as the king in the animal kingdom, so Sikhs use a dashtur on their head which serves multiple uses, one of them is to keep kesh (hair tied back and kept neat), holding the Khanga in place and also it symbolises their sovereignty as a crown, it's essentially the crown of Sikhs and they always must be armed at all times.

      It is because a cutting edge is a likely candidate for the most useful tool there is. A blade, whether stone or metal, is a tool which can be used to make all other tools. It can be used to prepare food, to prepare tinder, kindling, to help construct shelter, to help you cut your hair or shave your beard, etc. It is literally the most versatile invention in early man's toolset, and in my opinion, it is a more important invention than fire

    I am a keen hill walker and grew up in the Pennines of East Lancashire. So I have owned many different Jackets made from modern materials. A friend gave me a shooting jacket made from 100% tweed. It is more breathable and waterproof than modern goretex . New they cost just over £500. It is difficult to wash but I have never had to. You just wait for it to dry out and brush the dirt off with your hand. I thoroughly recommend 100% Scottish tweed .

    I love this idea. After my grandad died I got a lot of his personal items including his shoebox full of wallets, several pocket knives, his pocket combs and an assortment of other daily use items. I went down my own little rabbit hole of piecing together the rest of what he would have worn and carried daily growing up in the 1930s. I can now costume myself in period correct clothing and personal items of a 1930s farmer’s son. I even have 2 sets of his one strap overalls his grandmother had sewn together for him. It’s fascinating to go back 85 years, never mind centuries. Well done.

      @@francisdoran8992 Try walking into a store with a hatchet, rural Canada, Toronto or 17th century Scotland. Even if it's not illegal, people generally won't take kindly to it (there are actually laws in Canada about walking around with tools that can be used to commit crimes, axes, crowbars and lockpicks all fall into the same kind of group, not illegal, but suspicious). Also, that an axe can do "everything a knife can do" does not discount that a knife is a very useful tool that can do most of what you need. It's also not a true statement, axes are useful tools, but not great at some of the fine finesse stuff, more so with older axe designs, which might not even be sharp per se (often more like chisel point, like a splitting axe, depends what it was meant for, but many weapons would have similar edges). Look up the square head axe, a design that was in Scotland since before the Scots (ie. from the Picts) and into the 18th century at least. Also worth mentioning the kukri, which is not Scottish and probably would not have shown up much in Scotland, but is a type of knife that can do pretty much everything an axe can do, and more. My favourite survival knife has a waterproof matches container in the handle, a compass, serrations to saw stuff on the back and a blade like a Bowie knife/Ka-Bar. Also never heard of anyone killing a bear with a hatchet, but I know someone in my home town (in Northern Ontario) that killed a bear with a survival knife (saved his dog), and the Ka-Bar is kinda famous for doing that. Think I heard of another one out in BC but not so sure about that. Hacking through a bear doesn't work as well as stabbing vital areas. Cutting a steak with a hatchet is pretty awkward too, not saying I haven't done it, but I have also used a knife and chopsticks on a steak.

I enjoy your seamless use of Gaelic, it adds a unique regional/heritage depth to your lectures. Also, having spent a great deal of time out in the woods (off the grid they say now), taking the time, care and devotion needed to create the gear you demonstrate is much better than throwing away money on some plastic crap from a big brand name camping company for stuff made in a sweat shop and that will only wind up in a trash heap the minute it breaks or within a year, which ever comes first. Your serious yet light-hearted professional devotion to the art of ‘being outside’ is very refreshing.

    If you want your penannular brooch to not wear your kit, mark where your best fitment is, get a needle or awl, and spread the linen open, then stitch it open with a backstitch. It'll leave you an opening small enough that it'll close over yet large enough the pin can pass through readily. If you want to protect it further stitch a small square of leather with a hole awled into it over the spot to support it. You will damage it over time but that's the fact of cloth. Cloth breaks down. But you don't see bikers wearing pristine dubbin coated leather jackets. Embrace the decay of life. Pristine clothing is a modern luxury. Hell, even when I was a kid half my clothes were patchwork and that was the 80's.

    This is dangerous! I am a Norwegian goatfarmer, and I spend a lot of time outdoors in the Norwegian mountains. You are more then welcome to come and visit Norway and my goats. But the flat stone you use as a frying pan is actually very dangerous. I dont know the proper english name, but these stones are often used as roofing material in norway. (I am also a roofer). The best stones have the most internal oil, witch make them water resistent. However… all of these slates might contain oil. If they do, they might explode if you use them as a frying pan. The stone will splinter and might take out your eyes…

Especially with the Celts, lot of things we pioneered and invents, but also a lot of things that the Irish and Scottish were a little slow to change, somewhat insular cultures and all. The Irish moreso, a lot of the eventual changes came from Irish soldiers fighting in British armies all over the world, and then taking these new skills, tactics, ideas and equipment to use to fight the English. Stirrups for instance, Irish cavalry were probably the last people in Europe to adopt stirrups for cavalry, which allows for a better lanced charge (previously they used a overhand thrust which did not impart all of the horse's power), mounted archery, etc. Actually not a lot of difference between a 15th century kern and a Celtic skirmisher from 1500 years before that. Kinda cool what happens because of the isolation.

The scian dubh is a symbol of the Fenians, especially Irish Americans, and there's a novel with that name. The description of the quaich was a revelation, and explains the use of the Irish word "cuach" for "bowl" or " cup," and originates as you explained in the shell. That was great information.

    I'd add a thimble with that needle. I've been working on a kit to take my lap harp on a long distance pilgrimage which has turned out quite similar. An old basket that has lost its handle, two sheep skins and two blankets (I haven't got on to cooking yet - was thinking of a kelly kettle). The harp strap turns into a strap to hold the basket over your forehead (as in the photo) like Nepali porters use. I'm struck by the similarity as well between the great kilt and the Gurung of Nepal's cross strung sack bag. Thriving in the highlands involves travelling light! Would love to know how to waterproof leather with beeswax and make a leather water bottle.

      Their whisky came right out of the alembic at close to 175 proof. At that proof you could carry less because it was more than twice as strong as what's bottled today. You could water it in the field but then you'd miss out on that nice burning warming sensation when the sideways rain started up.
