Dave, I've followed you since d's tv. We have shared before. I knew you were hacked. Because I know you would never have such content. Keep up the good work. You have loyal followers that love your advice. Keep it up. Stay outside! Nuttin but luv!
A very good video and just as good as the previous one. The only thing I missed was the type of Backpack or Rucksack. Again, a very good video and informative. Thanks and stay well and happy
I have watched many videos over several years for bags. So many have to have a crap ton of gadgets. Your videos are basics. You cover all the basics needed. Without all the gadgets that you won't use and add unnecessary weight. Love the videos. Always come back to get grounded in basics.
I get the knee jerk reactions. Its hard to keep your cool when a bunch of idiots keep regurgitating the same nonsense. I'm guilty of posting the same comments. All we can do is try to be better, always.
Outstanding Dave I saw the first one and you could tell there was a lot of emotion in it. You are a far better man and instructor than the ones that are taking cheap shots at you.
RESPECT for humility, wisdom, and expertise. Its pleasant to be talked to and not lectured. Your skills and experience are appreciated and legendary. Thank you for listening to what some may call haters when in fact we respect your time vested in learning, implementing, perfecting and teaching your skills
Dave. Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put in to teaching us these skills. I’m sure that there has been someone that your information saved their life. I cannot think of anyone that I have ever met that is so dedicated to helping others. You deserve all of the accolades that you get! I went to your basics class several years ago and it was a highlight of my year. I hope that you always remember that at the core of any of the negative comments is what I call The “J” factor. (jealousy) God bless you, your family, and your business. John.
Periodically, I pull a sample from our deep pantry. Today, I opened a can of reduced sodium Spam… Use By date of June, 2010. (13 years ago). As good as the day it was canned. Kept at 60 degrees year round. Yes… I like Spam.
Man, would love to take one(or several) of your classes. Shame Ohio is a long way from Norway. Would also love to see an Amazon shopping list with items you recommend students bring.
This was fantastic Dave! I am coming out for the basic class in 2024 for sure. I didnt notice a tarp in the video. Is that not on the list? I thought for sure we would deploy a ridgeline and tarp.
Dave, I'm known far and wide for my knee jerk reactions so to me they are NORMAL! Please just keep on doing what you have always done and educate us with your expertise.
Question about meds: what about OTC that your doctor recommends such as vitamin D and antacids? Many times insurance companies deny a prescription if you can get it OTC in lower doses. For example, I have to take vitamin D every day to keep my levels up to the minimum. Dr only prescribes a high dose if those levels are severely low.
Hey, Dave! The 5 / 10 Cs and your gear lists have been the foundation of my kits every time I've taken a step on a trail ever since I first heard about them. I might tweak things based on the situation and as my budget allows me to upgrade, but the foundation is rock solid. With each outing, I understand and appreciate your experience & teaching a bit more. Thank you for blazing a trail for the rest of us to follow. Great video.
I thought that the previous video was just fine, direct and to the point. Bluntly honest and only slightly sugar coated. Was someone offended? Really? If so, I doubt that they would have emotionally survived an old school up bringing. Just My Honest Opinion! However, I do like the additional gear added to the updated list. Haversack and poncho...very cool, great choices. You're a great teacher Dave and very knowledgeable. The survival, bushcraft, self-reliance community is fortunate to have your dedication. Many thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and experience with us.
I think you should STAY mad Dave...the people that give you S_ _ T about things are not worth one drop of your sweat man...pay them no mind, as everybody that has watched you for more than 1 video knows that you are one of the good guys and actually care about what you're trying to do....take care man, and thanks for all you do Dave .... Semper Fi .........OnWard........
T-rex 🦖 duct tape is actually the best based on my tests which i used a lifting weight to test which it held but but besides repairs and such I'll warn you that stuff is tuff and very sticky i fell on my butt trying to tug it off my wall 😂 but gorilla is also a great brand and the step down from T-Rex with duck following behind
I’m surprised you mentioned that titanium has some issues with durability. Why is that? I bought two of your pathfinder water bottles. I also have a few pathfinder stainless steel water bottles but I’m surprised about the durability issue
Why do you use different water bottle caps then the regular ones your bottles come with? Are those klean canteen? Btw. I love your business and what you have to offer.
I have several backpacks and i can only pack this list in my largest backpack (35 letter) due to the wool blankets. Any help packing the 2024 list in a backpack would be much appreciated. Im 10 weeks out from training the basic class.
Wifey and I are setting up a Radio Station for Winter Field day on emergency power at a National Forest. We've been gathering gear ect. I purchased a book called Bush Craft 101. It reads so easily! I'm enjoying it! This course looks like something my wife and I would be very interested in. Thanks, and great vid!
Something I’ve often thought about, and don’t recall ever hearing until now was the bit about initially getting firewood from further away from your camp.
Dave Canterbury is the godfather of Bushcraft! I hope to read all his books and take all his classes over time. Being a Bushcraft instructor for a living sparks my interest.
thanks for video Dave ill take a look if you already have them but if you don't think you can make a video on a good way to prep for your classes to help your chances of success
Hey don't forget women and children can do the keep the blade fixed and pull the rod back across the spine trick so they don't have to use as much strength
I wouldn’t go anywhere without a sure way to make fire and at least protection from the Elements but at a Basic level you need more as you become more adapt you need less thanks for giving us an expert opinion do you have videos showing staying 2-3 days in one location with these three items I would enjoy watching them for sure?

New Sub. So glad i lucked upon your channel.
You da man Dave!

You do you Dave. We're here for all of it.
Good on you. You can recognize your mis-steps and fix them. Also thanks for being the bigger person. We see it. You are the modern day Bushcraft guru
Ive been using my old hickory for decades. You just cant beat it

Why a 6" long ferrod? I have been using Light my Fire ferrod for years and never let me down!

I liked the first video better where you all animated and swearing. I respect your professionalism though. Good video
Hello. Are you guys still going to be making the Self Reliance Outfitters Scout Pack???? Thank you.
Dave Canterbury the 👑 of Bushcrafting.😎👍☘️
Informative and beneficial video with affordable gear for the common man.
Would you recommend someone with above average survival skills start with the basic course? With the intent of going to the advanced course?
Yes
FYI. Everyone breaks their first Silky saw. There is a technique to use so they don't snap.
I have been watching you since December of 2011. Honest to God, you saved my life with your videos.
T-rex 🦖 duct tape is actually the best based on my tests which i used a lifting weight to test which it held but but besides repairs and such I'll warn you that stuff is tuff and very sticky i fell on my butt trying to tug it off my wall 😂 but gorilla is also a great brand and the step down from T-Rex with duck following behind
Is there any swagman type rolls for tall guys?
Do you have a gear list video for the Bushcraft 101 class? Or is it the same as the Basics list?
I’m surprised you mentioned that titanium has some issues with durability. Why is that? I bought two of your pathfinder water bottles. I also have a few pathfinder stainless steel water bottles but I’m surprised about the durability issue
Why do you use different water bottle caps then the regular ones your bottles come with? Are those klean canteen? Btw. I love your business and what you have to offer.
I like the D rings on these old model KK lids so I bought some aftermarket when they were available
I have several backpacks and i can only pack this list in my largest backpack (35 letter) due to the wool blankets. Any help packing the 2024 list in a backpack would be much appreciated. Im 10 weeks out from training the basic class.
35 Ltr is not a large pack at all just bring that brother if it all fits
Do you allow a GRAYL water filter in your classes, as an additional item?
Hey Dave! What watch are you wearing in this video?
So fun
Youre my medicine
Get out there
Your gear should be updated with a new table ;)
Wifey and I are setting up a Radio Station for Winter Field day on emergency power at a National Forest. We've been gathering gear ect. I purchased a book called Bush Craft 101. It reads so easily! I'm enjoying it! This course looks like something my wife and I would be very interested in. Thanks, and great vid!
Between the Silky Gomboy and the Gomboy Outback, which would you recommend? I can't find any information if the Outback also has a 90 degree spine.
I keep most of this in my truck all the time. I swap out food, and dont keep clothing in them (except socks), but the gear stays in it, just in case.
Haha! Much happier, more positive video! Thanks Dave! Although, the aggressive one was fun to watch too.
What is your thoughts on the new light weight tents ?
Hope to see you in November! 🥾🏔️
Something I’ve often thought about, and don’t recall ever hearing until now was the bit about initially getting firewood from further away from your camp.
It's my dream to go to your class...
Can you use the bank line for a fire starter?
Dave Canterbury is the godfather of Bushcraft! I hope to read all his books and take all his classes over time. Being a Bushcraft instructor for a living sparks my interest.
I think I have all that gear plus some
Yes this video was much more chill. But you did have a valid point about brands. Keep up the good work.
no superglue for first aid?
thanks for video Dave ill take a look if you already have them but if you don't think you can make a video on a good way to prep for your classes to help your chances of success
Hey don't forget women and children can do the keep the blade fixed and pull the rod back across the spine trick so they don't have to use as much strength
"When you're walking around trying to stay found"...
Do you have a minimum length for the folding saw?
I think the first video was fine and eff the haters. Been a fan from before the tv show
Well done... Quality gear is extremely important..
T Y 2 U, Dave. Plz keep on truckin!
Hi Dave do you know if the jungle bag/blanket is as warm as or warmer than the swagman?
Not sure honestly
Thanks for all of the great information!
Can you recommend a watch ?
Yes: an improved version.
Excellent information.
Good video my friend
Thanks Dave
Thanks Dave
would you carry a plastic(lighter) water bottle as a secondary?
edit: lol nevermind found the answer :)
Great info!!!
👍🙏
It’s all about Jesus
Love to take your class but I want to bring my dogs and was told no go.
If you have legitimate Service dogs we can work something out
I'm shocked at the amount of stuff you need. I take a gun, knife and water. Honestly that should do it.
I wouldn’t go anywhere without a sure way to make fire and at least protection from the Elements but at a Basic level you need more as you become more adapt you need less thanks for giving us an expert opinion do you have videos showing staying 2-3 days in one location with these three items I would enjoy watching them for sure?
