Wazaaaa!:) So the Primitive Knife I'm using is a really special one! Self-forged from a piece of scrap steel found at the riverside, with just stone tools. Check out the Primitive Forging video together with craftsman Felix Immler here >>> ruclips.net/video/-I96PM-8uaA/видео.html
You should make a bow and arrow's in the woods and can you carve some sort of animal in the bow. Love you gies
Hey mate, what pants are you wearing?
@Paul Fjallraven Barents Pro;)
Felix.. amazing bush crafter
Oh Man are worms,grubs and maggots considered proper vegan? just kidding all is fair in survival . Thank you Julius for your love for our earth and spreading the word about the environment! I love everything about you!!
Rumour has his first child’s words will be ohhhhh man

What a fantastic survival overnight challenge my friend! The weather didn't make it easy for you. I am proud of our knife! Greetings from Switzerland
Felix
Felix Immler Fu wo us dr Schwitz?
Looking forward to a new adventure with you some time
You mean PewDiePie
@@U84Skin dude his name is Felix it literally says next to his profile picture
Take a sip every time he says 'oh man'
i drowned
I got alcohol poisoning 😁
I'm officially turnt
3 minutes in. I can't find my face.
I please im drowning 😔
So in conclusion...
OH MAN!
That was a textbook bow drill and the most informative and honest process I've seen on RUclips
Cheers for the birch bark tip- I would have felt lousy if i killed a tree one day!
Spends an hour looking for birch bark .. sleeps on it :D
In the rain as long as you already have fire, it's smart. Keeps the wet from the ground from soaking you that would be sapping your body heat, as well as providing a basic insulation layer. You get as much cold off the ground as the air around you
@@nathangodfrey5362 He's talking about the unused birch logs that were just sitting there covered in bark.
I think that camp was designed for people to come in with a tarp
it definitely lookslike a perimeter wall of a tarp setup
And yet it is not. For many of us Fins tarp is just waste of space/something extra to carry. It's useful ofc, but you can build "Laavu" = 'lean-to shelter'. You can just use branches or moss, grass or hay etc. to make it good enough. Tarp would be ideal to make it waterproof fast but far from needed
Tarp was designed for that lean-to shelter to make it waterproof faster, tarp is not needed for that shelter and imho useless. I'm from Finland and summer nights can go below zero celsius and winters around -40C and F. Have been out there in both conditions, also in warm summer nights, best is lean-to 'laavu in fin' shelter.
Pretty good assumption
The tarp was probably folded and hidden somewhere nearby.
Fair enough, I tried to go on a camp with a crappy knife I made myself, only because I lost my actual knife, had a great time, had to lug around a 2kg sharpening stone.
Ohhh man
Ive been watching Smooth Gefixt for quite some time now.
And at first I was hesitant of watching after Dylan stopped being in every video but you've completely turned me around.
Im loving the solo videos a lot more than I expected. Plus you keep cracking me up with your clumsiness please keep showing it in the videos :D.
Keep up the great videos and 'taking care about nature' as you put it, good to inform the people watching about the big ''no noes'' of survival.
Groetjes van een mede Hollander.
That's a nice comment:)
Ohhhh man
'Awwww maayyyin! It's wet!' Awesome vid! haha!
You can actually take birch bark from a living tree as long as you do not damage the layer under it by cutting through all the way down to the wood.
I genuinely love watching your videos! Between your clumsiness and accent and the mishaps, you're just so hilarious and you don't even realize it! 😂
Stay humble my friend and don't ever change. 👍😎✌️
Thanks Luis:)
i really honestly enjoy your survival videos one of the best intresting channel ...im so glad i found this..thank you..and please dont quit.love from india ✌💛
I think you are a very skilled guy. You have real bushcraft talent. And it's great to see such a passion in what you do! Please, continue making such great videos if you enjoy it!
Out of just about anyone I’ve seen, I’d pick you to survive in the wilderness while stranded with. While many survivalist have similar knowledge and skill sets, I know of very few that have your level of optimism and attitude. That can be the difference between life and death in an emergency situation. Love watching you
Those are some sweet words:) Thanks!
This cat is amazing. I’m looking forward to see how he masters his skills over the next ten years. Just don’t sell out!!!
16:06 they dont kill birch. That brown is a inner bark of birch, Phloem is just a innermost layer of bark. White part of birchbark is just for protection from sunrays in early spring. Birch cant warm so fast, fluids dont move from roots, and during cold night they dont freez. And under that white birch bark is another layer of standart bark.
The kids will come back and think the fairies have spruced up their lean-to. Great video.
Julius!
I do recall you mentioning in a previous video you would like to visit the rain forest one day. Perhaps the struggle of making fire in wet conditions can help you in a future scenario in a rainforest. We must be able to adapt to our environment. Good luck to you!
-Dylan
The knife did the job for which it was forged. But beyond all your video it was very good. He had all blood and sweat, humor but also valuable information. I liked the optimism with which you approached the situation that you are supposed to be, I think this is the right attitude in a real survival situation. Thank you.
Soft steel also means it's easy to sharpen in the field. Should find a suitable stone to keep it sharp.
Your content is top notch and you are not getting as much publicity as you would be getting. You are my favorite youtubers and I love all your video, with or without Dylan this channel is the best.
P.S. I am watching this for like the 5th time
Whouwh man! I would say 5 time is more then enough, haha;)
Julius I have been going back and re watching the older vids. I like the sign on the shelter
It said "Bushcraft Clubhouse", a sign on the out side of the frame. This was one good VID!!
I wanna be like you when I grow up
28:21😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂i died laughing
If you took a shot every time he said “ohh man” you would be dead by the end of the video
hey man you found my childhood club house brings back so many memorys
For real? I though it was another guy's?;)
You have mastered the primitive fire..... great job!
Love your improvisational reactions on your videos it shows that knowledge will overcome confusion and hopelessness. Awesome job.
Learn, learn and learn. New things. Personally, i mean you never stop with learn new Survival techniques.
Whatever, you know of Survival things.
Hello from Australia :-) i like you and your channel you are also quite funny you showed some real grit there in that lean to! I hope you have recovered from cutting your finger not a good thing to do , lucky it did not require stitches. Take it easy mate and i look forward to more of your videos :-) Julius if you ever come to Australia i would like to meet you .
Ohhhhh Maaaaaynnnngggg, I'm afraid the bow drill works! Ohhhhh Maaaaynnnggg, I'm afraid we got some food! Ohhhh Maaaaynnnnggg, i'm afraid i found some water to drink! Ohhhh Maaaaynnnnnggg, I'm afraid i will sleep good tonight! WOWWWW GREAT, a bear just attacked me! reverse Psygrammar! LOL! Ohhhh Maaaayyynnnngggg, i'm gonna have to subscribe!!! AWWEEEE MAAAYNNNGG!!!
Nice Jules, practice, practice and practice you made it look easy mate. You are one of the most humble down to earth people I have came across, I wish you all the best brother
Those are nice words, thanks mate:)
love smooth music on this chanel
also thought, that would be awesome to make some bushcraft trip but with some of guys just not to loose myself in the woods
i found an old hatchet in the garden, put it into the oven and the steel got soft (i love it cause on a stone it get´s sharp as hell)
you where righ on birch-bark - suckers cutted into the cambium and the tree will die :(
i like the fact the bowdrill worked out - since you did not manage the batterie-light-up :D
go on and proceed
You are getting so good at this, you are more and more comfortable n the woods. All the mistakes and trials really paying off :)
Another fantastic video.
wait fire on the first try? thats new xD
HAhaa
Thanks for the comment, I'm looking forward to seeing this.
You have an excellent grasp of the English language and many American idioms. You crack me up! You're brilliant! Thank you for posting this and putting a smile on my face.😊 And your survival skills are great! I don't think you need to worry about the guy who built that shelter. There was moss growing on the bench seats, so he hasn't been around for awhile.👍😊
Sweet comment, thank you:)
love these challenges! i hope to make videos like this once i finish my shelter!
Film your shelter build too. I'll watch. I'm sure others would also .
50 Nana i have been filming it and uploading it!
Man your like a harry styles of the woods. Ace love the videos
That intro is beautiful! I'm sure the rest of the vid will be too!
WHERE WAS THE JAZZ MUSIC COMING FROM WHEN YOU WERE SITTING NEAR THE FIRE? COULD HEAR IT SLIGHTLY IN THE BACKGROUND. ANYWAY AS ALWAYS YOUR AMAZING AT WHAT YOU DO ; LOVE, LOVE.... YOUR CHANNEL YOU WILL SEE ME VERY SOON ON YOUR PATREON... HOPE YOU OFFER EXTRA FOOTAGE IM HEADING TO IT AFTER THIS VIDEO.... KEEP IT UP BUD.
In Europe you can't really be alone in the wilderness, cause it doesn't exist;) Soon I hope to make some time to invest in the patreon. Stay tuned!
@@SmoothGefixt Here in Sweden there are no problem finding camping sites where you will be alone for sure.
It can even be scary lonley if you know you are the only human being in 10-50 miles radius.
In some areas the bear density is up to 1 bear per 10 sqkm (that makes around 80 bears in an area with a 10 mile radius).
I have never had any encounters with bears though (I would like to see a bear in nature sometime....but in distance...).
It's a funny feeling though to know there are more bears nearby than humans.
Two months in ...still watching i felt kinda sad i found ur channel abit late but m glad i did found it..plez upload more of this survival videos..i just love every single survival videos of yours...keep doing what u r doing, always supporting
That was super cool how you pushed that tree down and ate those maggots haha, I definitely learned a lot. Cool music too. Thanks
:)
Wood sorrel and beetle grubs. The dinner of champions.
It’s really bad , to burn the cra💩p , ,Out of these peoples place , OOOOHHH. Man he’s funny 😄 I like this guy
Blood Sweat And No Tears Brother
Great Work Earthling
If u simply make the basic shelter shape like this ' / ' or simply 40° roof you can at least have the emergency rain shelter..haha.but there's always 1st time, and keep improving survival skill
You did really good young man. I'm impressed.
Wow this is such a good video! So funny and I am soo impressed with the bow-drill skills! Also really appreciate the honest survival challenge👍🏼
I love watching you build fires
Love your videos!
Very smooth job with the bow drill!🤙
It’s so funny every time he says “ aw man”
Ooh man
I just found this channel and I just wanna say ur funny as hell and I really enjoy ur stuff :)
Suvival situation. Finds kettle to boil water, finds pre-made shelter. I was waiting for you to find the still warm cheese burger next :)
Just a lucky day for a change;)
Whenever I settle for a lean to type shelter I like to bring along something for a counter slope if the rain is coming in the opposite direction. A narrow strip that can be affixed to the top as an awning when sitting, or halfway down the back slope and draped over the body when laying down. I realize most of your videos are based upon the premise of not planning for anything more than a hike in the woods (this no food, fire starting materials except maybe a ferorod, and no shelter material ) but even a rain poncho can be used as a counter slope
Entertaining! Just subscribed. And thanks!
Great video as always! I'm going to learn how to make a friction fire with the fire bow this year. What type/types of wood do you recommend? Thanks and looking forward to the next video!
Another great vid Julius!
18:15 yeeeeah lubrication and mushi is a gooood combination :D
greetings from germany mekekeke
Fire is awesome!
we miss smooth gefixt guys where are you guys we realy miss the new stuff off you guys keep it up we love to see more
Made me laugh 😁🔥👏
I thought this was an another movie of wrong turn,lol.Well,still, we should be thankful that the cannibals didn't came haha.
I saw that thing in the woods like that camp I was scared I was like are these for the natives
Haha, it's just western Europe here. A wild bushcrafter is as native as it is going to get
I went there 5 months ago or less idk
It scared me
Smooth Grefixt watch my video it’s going to be complete on Tuesday
Oh $@#% your the person who made this that sort of scared me
Quality video guys loved the knife did a great job 👍 looking forward to your other videos
creeper!!! (literaly any second of the video) AW MANNNNNN!!!!!!
So cool
During the second world war P.O.W.s would harden steel by sprinkling sugar on the cherry red hot blades, the carbon from the sugar would infuse with the hot steel making it harder, in a survival situation I guess the sugar from honey would serve a similar purpose.
One of your great videos! It really went smooth this time. Well done!
“Why doesn’t this go smooth” lol
You’re the man!
Remembered how awesome this channel was and I am so happy you guys are still making videos! Keep up the sick work.
WElcome back;)
If it's pure iron, then you will need to melt it down with the carbon you were wanting to introduce, that way you can turn it into steel. Which can be hardened
you can harden rebar but it is mostly guesswork but i made some good knives even from mild steel he just haves to case harden or superquench it
Dat is zeer smoet gefixt
smoet! haha
Dude, the weather hates you! Great stuff!
This is great Julius. The link to the video where you forge this knife, is no longer available to watch and I really wanted to see how you made it. Do you have another link to it, or are you able to upload it please. Many thanks and best wishes from England.
FINALLY YOU'RE BACK!!!missed watching SG videos!!
it is quite a nice knife for the limited tools you had at your disposition to make it
Dude I've been watching your videos for a week or so. Honestly man, you're super cool and chill and fun to listen to! I'm learning too! Also Dylan is a pretty cool guy as well.
Love the introduction - great editing skills!
The video link in description to where you make the knife says its private when I click on it.
Come back Dylan! Hahaha awesome video!
Have you heard of the Rabbit Stick gathering in Idaho, USA? It is near my home. The people there are awesome. It is hosted by Dave Wescott. He is quite famous and has even been involved training people like Bear Grylls in making a plow fire and such. If you could come for the gathering it would be fantastic! It would be easy for me to help with getting you transport and housing as i am a university professor. Look up the gathering and the host and please think of coming for a visit to Idaho. You could also take advantage of your time here with other trips to Yellowstone Park or the Teton Mountains, or the great rivers of Idaho. And you could speak in University classes as a guest!
Owh men!!!
Thanks just subscribed thank Fandabi dozi
13:13 I've heard crushed Antacid tablets (Tums) work much better then charcoal for hardening the edge
Aww man!
Great video, you put the mistakes in that make it reality.
I think the birch with the bark cut all the way around it was a forced kill to provide a dead standing tree for creatures to make homes in and possibly even chaga
Haha, not to shebby
Now that's the way to start a survival video !
Haha, lad called the wiggidy grubs "maggots".😂
Are people that stupid to ring bark the trees just for some bark,its a shame that people cant take care about nature.
Great channel.
Icewallowcome Reet why do you get so angry over something so simple, and regardless its good for the tree.
@@icewallowcomereet9058 if you remove the bark all around the tree it will die, it uses the bark to transport sugars from the leaves down to the roots both to feed the roots and for storage.
that tree will now die.
you should do some research on ringbarking yourself
That process is called girdling and it is done on purpose sometimes in managed forests. Yes the tree will die standing. It's done just to create better habitats for birds and insects. It doesn't seem to be done on purpose for this reason in this case though.
@@DuckcuD Oh no... a single tree died WHAT A TRAGEDY
major cause of global warming.
This guy needs to go to jail for destruction of nature
@@user-tr2dh4xx6u the issue isnt that one tree will die, the issue is that bushcrafting is often done as a way to appreciate and learn about nature
It is a shame that a bushcrafting group shows so little knowledge or care that they ringbark or girdle trees rather than take surface bark or bark from standing dead or fallen trees, or even the trees that they used as benches which still had fully intact bark
love this video.
Excellent. No way to repair birch trees when that happens?
Not really ... imagine a tree trunk is like your arm, except 95% of the mass is your bone and all your bloods supply is right under the first few layers of your skin. Cut too deeply (and that’s measured in millimeters) and all the way around and everything from that point to your hand eventually will die.
My dad keep an apple tree alive and fruiting for 20years with only a hand-width of love bark still attached to the roots. In the end the entire trunk was rotted away and turned into a ants nest and only a single branch bore fruit every other year, but those were the most perfect and sweet apples I had every had
@@MrSheckstr Well I am very glad that I have learned this now, before doing something very foolish in the future.
Good point on the birch bark sir 👍
So amaze
oh maaaan dat survival maaaan
