There are a lot of bushcraft videos showing you how to do stuff. This guy shows you how to do stuff and look good doing it. My wife always said “style matters”! 😂
Much appreciated mate, growing up I always admired the adventurers of old and now that I’m older I can fulfil that lust for adventure and precure the kit to go along with it. Thanks for joining me.
Well, good thing Black Bears are skittish on the east coast since they are smaller due to less range. I just yell at them and they run away. I care more for their protection from humans that might harm them and hope they remain afraid of humans so they will be okay. There is always an excitement when I do see them. Makes one feel more at one with nature. I’m honoured for the title mate. Cheers
Hi Jose, nothing like good food in the woods. A good Walking stick gets me there. Good quality kit ensures that I'm prepared and that it will last. Thanks for joining me mate. Cheers
Just found your channel today.. big Joe Robinet fan.. your video from a year ago.. the beyond meat balls one was recommended.. blasted through it. I am subbed now ❤
So good to see you’re back I really enjoy your videos. You know when you post a video it’s always going to be good. It’s just a sense of peace and Tranquility you get from watching your videos. Thanks ever so much I think I can speak for all the people here, and say we really appreciate the effort you put into making your videos. Thanks again
Thanks mate, these trips do bring me peace and tranquillity, so I suppose that trickles out to you all and it's the reason I share. Nature has a great way of doing that. Thanks so much for your kind words of encouragement! Cheers mate!
That is so awesome! I certainly will keep them coming, and I’m very glad that you appreciate them. I suppose my love of nature and the great outdoors is showing. Thanks so much for your support!
Thank you so much for all the work in creating this video. It came at the perfect time for me. I’m stuck at home with a minor injury right now and cannot get out into the woods for the next month or two. This is exactly the kind of camping that I love to do and the area that you’re filming and is very similar to the remote areas that I often access. Please keep up the great work, and know that you are much appreciated! Stay safe!
Hi Michael, Sorry to hear about your injury. I trust you will get some good reading, watching, relaxation, and some small projects done whilst you mend. I'm glad that I could take the adventure to you, and you could enjoy the wilderness from the comfort of your home. Stay and heal well. I’ll try to have another adventure out soon. Happy New Year Michael!
Great video! I appreciate the hard work and dedication. I'm getting back to filming this month. You have such an awesome kit! Keep up the great work. 👍
Hello mate, yeah Bushcraft is a lot of work on it's own but then filming and editing is a whole other project. We do this because we love it and people appreciate it. Well thank you for your support and make certain to send me a link to your film. Happy New Year! Cheers
What a wonderful video, true wildernesslivingskills, stunning scenery, love the sleep system, and that awesome water bottle, good health and safe travels my friend, cheers craig
Oi mate, nice to hear from you, it’s been a while. I’ve been following your Pagan posts on Instagram, as usual, very witty. I’m glad you enjoyed the adventure mate. A Happy New Year to you Craig! Cheers
Hello Alexander, glad you could come along. Yeah, it’s great to have such a beautiful place to escape to, it helps to provide balance. Glad you enjoyed the adventure and I appreciate the support. Welcome!
Yes, Coffee from scratch Jacob, you certainly appreciate it more. All the extra labour you do out here has a satisfying reward at the end. The blanket is great and I think it tops my Hudsons Bay 6 Point blanket. Happy New Year mate!
Es un gusto ver un vídeo más!! Cómo siempre la calidad es increíble,por otra parte espero puedas hacer más videos y que duren más. Te mando un abrazo desde México 🇲🇽
Luvvly jubbly, always a treat when one of your videos pops up on my feed! Really enjoy your classic style of camping and am really jealous of your Helko bedroll. I wish you could get them here in the UK. Thanks for bringing us along 👍
Little tip for you keep your blanket in your bivi bag when you stow it at the bottom of your bag keeps it dry clean ect.great video jealous of your kit must have cost a fortune
Hello mate, thanks for the tip, the only problem is if I put both the Bivi and the blanket on the bottom like that the weight would be unbalanced and it would be like a child pulling on the bottom of my bag, the weight needs to be dispersed in order to carry properly. Wool is water resistant and retains its warming properties up to 80% even when wet. I don’t own or need a car, and bicycle to work, this offshoots lot of the cost of the gear. I also contact companies and get discounts as well as freebies. I’m glad you enjoyed the outing and I will look forward to hearing from you again on the next adventure. Thank you so much for your support.
I recently joined your channel. I love your videos, man. The video production, scenery, music, gear, and the entire content is really awesome to watch. Thank you for doing your work. I am a fan. Keep up the great work.
Wow mate, you made my day and put a big smile on my face. I love the outdoors and I’m so glad I can share it with people who appreciate it. I don’t think I’ve heard a nicer comment. Thank you so much Andre!
Dang brother saw a new video pop up and changed my whole view on the day. Very happy you found the time for a jaunt in the woods and thanks for taking us along it's been awhile.
Hi Sam, I’m in the Very often and just don’t document the trip as often so that I’m in enjoy it without interruption. Well Sam, you made my day with your words. Good to hear from you.
If I were in that environment, I'd don't think I'd even remember to turn the camera on. Beautiful country my friend Thanks for letting us enjoy it with you.@@TheLoreofBushcraft
Great to see you back, and at such a lovely time of the year. It's summer here and in the high 20s, too hot for hauling a pack around, but I'm looking forward to autumn and winter so I can get back out there. The new kuksa looks great! Thanks ever so much for all the work filming, editing etc, that you do to bring your trips to us. Love from NZ
Hello John, so nice to hear from you mate. We are literally polar opposites. I'm about to head into a snowstorm winter advisory and I'm looking forward to it. I love winter camping. I will be filming this one so you will be able to join vicariously. Don't let the heat stop you. Happy New Year to you and your family brother. Great to hear from you as always. Cheers
I just discovered your channel and have enjoyed your content. It's been a couple mornings since I've ventured out into the woods but this has encouraged me. Headed out tomorrow... subbed
That's lovely to hear Darrell, you will never regret going out but you will always regret not going out. I'm glad I could share with those who appreciate the great outdoors and inspire them to get out there and enjoy the wilderness. Welcome to my adventures. Cheers
I stumbled onto your instagram channel today and had to find your RUclips channel, Hello I have just read your bio on this channel..and yes Inspired…those people you mentioned in your bio have also inspired me. Like minded I think the term is.. Growing up Les Hiddins. Bush Tucker Man inspired me in the 80s maybe earlier. I’m here in Australia. An awesome video thoroughly enjoyed watching, I’m keen to catch up on your previous videos now.
Hello Eric, we live across a world from each other, yet we share a bond in pursuit of the great outdoors. There are great treasures in nature, and returning to the woods is like returning home as John Muir would say. I’m glad I can share my experiences with you, Eric. Cheers mate!
@@TheLoreofBushcraft hello , thanks for your reply, could I ask your name please?, yes three degrees of separation, we are all connected, distance is of no consequence. Totally enjoying your videos, very much appreciated. Could you suggest an outlet in the UK For equipment. I have been admiring your leather pouches . The leather is a useful source of helpful items. Enjoy the tranquility, looking forward to more content. Respect and kind regards. 🇦🇺🇬🇧👍
Hello my friend its been a long time coming couldn't wait for this one to come out always a joy watching your outings oh and by the way I love the helko werk canvis going to look into getting one hey I noticed that you always build your fire pits the same way great for retaining heat and great for cooking on things like this only highlight your bushcraft skills I've been doing bushcraft survival for many years and watched alot of youtubers and let me tell you your one of the best your skills are off the wall anyway you stay safe out there my friend and cant wait for the next one.
Hello Steven, I am honoured by your kind words. Yes, the Helko Werk is great for an easy set up full-on shelter. Just roll it out and it's ready. I'm on my way to an outing now with it in a winter storm advisory and I will stay in a shallow cave. I will film it so you can check out the results later. Thanks again for your kind words. Cheers
Hello, PNW Bushcraft is the name of the outdoor Bushcraft equipment supplier that I use frequently. They are a small business with great products and that’s why I try to amplify them in my videos. It’s where I get my food pantry bags, my waxed pillowcase and my Bushpot Cedar bag. I’m not in the Pacific Northwest.
Good bushcraft video and no In-yer-face-blah-blah-blah or pounding music Pleasant and relaxing. Was that Maple sugar you put in your Kuksa for the coffee?
Glad you enjoyed it mate, That was natural cone Cane sugar. Done in an 18th century style. it’s still used in British colonies throughout the world. that’s the last bit of it because it was a cone.
Very cool outing.. I was a litle surprised to see you eating a freeze dried meal since it seems like you mostly cooked all your own meals. Breakfast looked pretty great to me. Thanks for the video brother
Hi Mark, I bring freeze, dried with me for the first night because it gets dark early and one spends so much energy setting up and harvesting firewood you just want to eat and rest. You certainly don’t feel like cooking something elaborate, 😂 it’s simply more convenient. Nice to hear from you. I wish you a happy New Year.
Another enjoyable video. Youve definitely developed a distinct style both in video and attire. All good. I appreciate all your efforts to share these experiences. It serves as inspiration and comradery to the merry band of outdoor people out there, myself included. Looking at your bed roll, would it he classed as an Aussie swag bag or is it based on a frontiersman design?
Lee, long time happy new year! Yeah, it's great to be able to share with those who appreciate such activities. I don't know which style it is but if you find out please inform me. Nice to hear from you mate.
@@TheLoreofBushcraft and a Happy New Year to you! If you're ever back in the UK and fancy a wildcamp trip, let me know. I'd be up for that. Whereabouts in the states are you? It's unlikely I'd make it out there, but you appear to have a few favourite spots you like to revisit.
Hello mate, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yes, it was quite comfy and protective. It was a Bear. Take a look at the description and I explain the situation..
There he is! Looks like your spot was happy to see you again. I couldn’t quite make out all the runes on your kuksa but I was able to see most of them... Nice details! Any snow up your way yet?
Hello Chris, some patches of snow here and there, but the rain has washed it away, not to mention the warm weather. The Runes "dead, follow the course, so the stream." Old Norse saying. it’s no other way of saying to be a maverick.
really good stuff, would it be possible at some point to include what food you're making on the screen or maybe a short word doc download? I think it was maybe a beef stew towards the end but it was hard to tell exactly. Nonetheless I love the gear you use, layout of your videos, the scenery etc.
Hello mate, good point, however, it does say Beans on the lid of the container. I didn’t realise it wasn’t as noticeable as I thought, otherwise I would’ve left captions. I must’ve edited out the part where the lid clearly said Kidney beans. It’s Kidney bean stew. Well, at least it makes for conversation :). Thanks for coming along. Feel free to ask any question and I’ll be happy to answer. Thanks again.
Subscribed! Great videos, keep posting. Do you post all your gear anywhere? That little lamp you have on your stick is really cool, where did you get that?
Welcome, thank you, I will. I post a lot of my knives on Instagram and there’s a video we get back that I have a load out of the variety of gear. Is a UCO from Badger Claw Outfitters but he doesn’t have them anymore. You can search for UCO candlelight to get one. Let me know if you have any more questions. Cheers
I've been thinking of purchasing the Helko Werk Waxed Canvas Bedroll. Do you like it better than the Bushcraft Spain bedroll that you used in another of your videos? Was wondering how they compare. Thank you. Love your videos so much!
@@TheLoreofBushcraft Thank you so much for your quick response! I do have couple more questions: Does the Bushcraft Spain bedroll feel as sturdy and thick as the Helko Werk bedroll, and does the Bushcraft Spain Bedroll feel oily? Also any odor form the oil treatment? Apologize for so many questions. Hoping to purchase one or the other today. Thank you again! Very best to you!
@thegodream get the Bushcraft Spain, oily at first but that’s because it’s freshly done and that’s a good thing. Excellent build quality. Get it and you will love your decision, trust me. I don’t use the other one anymore.
Yeah I suppose I’m quite a romantic (old school). I'm honoured that you completely understand my quote. Being in the woods certainly brings me peace and the fact that I can share that peace with others is one good thing that’s valuable in our modern life, technology wise. Cheers mate!
Hello mate, glad you like it. Unfortunately, the fellow doesn’t make them anymore. He was making them during the pandemic, but I guess when the pandemic ended he went back to his full-time job. Anyway, here it is. NEW BUSHCRAFT KIT: Boreal Bushcraft Pack, SRO Bedroll Cooker, Filson Guide Sweater, Barbour Liner ruclips.net/video/hEWngFISjQI/видео.html
What are your thoughts on the Helko Werk Swiss Army wool blanket? Is it really worth $200? The canvas bedroll looks amazing. update: I ended up purchasing 2 Ektos 100% wool blankets from Amazon. I saw the Helko Werk Blanket was rated at 460gsm and the Ektos at 600gsm AND I bought TWO for HALF the price.
Hello mate, I don't own a Swiss Army blanket. The 2 Types of blankets I do own are Hudson’s Bay Company 6 Point (Queen size) historical iconic blanket (yes the one you read about in school) used by Frontiersmen, Trappers, Soldiers, Native Americans, Traders and Mountainmen since the 18 century. I also use Bushcraft Spain Merino wool blankets (King & Full). The cost is $400 for the Bushcraft Spain and $700 for Hudson Bay. They are in my opinion, the best Bushcraft blankets one can use without a doubt.
@sipapito it all depends, mostly a few kilometres and 45 minutes to one hour. I’m an athlete, I’m an Ultra marathon, I box, I cycle and I lift weights. I’m 50 years old today and I’m in better shape than I was at 20.
Hey, thanks for make new videos. Thrust me, you is one of the best bushmans on RUclips, so believe in yourself and keep doing. Stay safe!
Thanks mate!
The video is up now
You're making some of the best and most wholesome bush craft outing videos. Keep it up.
Thanks mate, I love the wilderness and this is my appreciation of it. I prefer I will keep it up. Cheers

Your pack & bedroll are sweet. You embody everything I would expect in a modern-day nomad. Awesome!!!
Much appreciated mate, growing up I always admired the adventurers of old and now that I’m older I can fulfil that lust for adventure and precure the kit to go along with it. Thanks for joining me.
What an eye for beauty you have, in selecting a spot, and each piece of cherished chosen gear. I enjoyed your video very much! Thank you!❤
Thanks so much, I’m glad you enjoyed it. The more time you spend in the wilderness the more you’ll appreciate it and the gear that gets you there.
Great stuff as always. Glad the bear left you alone, pack some bear spray, would hate to lose our favorite bushcrafter😀

Pan roasting your own coffee beans… really??? That’s amazing. And always the bay leaf in your cooking. Total class.

Oi Paul, it is the .7 kettle. Indeed, great piece of kit. Happy New Year mate!
@TheLoreofBushcraft Happy new year to you brother!!
Regards as always from S.Wales 🇬🇧
There he is! Looks like your spot was happy to see you again. I couldn’t quite make out all the runes on your kuksa but I was able to see most of them... Nice details! Any snow up your way yet?
Hello Chris, some patches of snow here and there, but the rain has washed it away, not to mention the warm weather. The Runes "dead, follow the course, so the stream." Old Norse saying. it’s no other way of saying to be a maverick.
Nice bear!
you caught that, awesome. There’s a long story behind it, read it in the description.
Love the Filson Anorak! What size are you wearing? 🌲🔥⛺️
Hello mate, I’m 5‘9“ and 86 kilos with an athletic build. I prefer my clothing to fit closer to my body and I wear a small.
@ Thanks brother! Much appreciated. 🙌🏽🔥
really good stuff, would it be possible at some point to include what food you're making on the screen or maybe a short word doc download? I think it was maybe a beef stew towards the end but it was hard to tell exactly. Nonetheless I love the gear you use, layout of your videos, the scenery etc.
Hello mate, good point, however, it does say Beans on the lid of the container. I didn’t realise it wasn’t as noticeable as I thought, otherwise I would’ve left captions. I must’ve edited out the part where the lid clearly said Kidney beans. It’s Kidney bean stew. Well, at least it makes for conversation :). Thanks for coming along. Feel free to ask any question and I’ll be happy to answer. Thanks again.
@@TheLoreofBushcraft yum that sounds even tastier and beef stew thanks!
Subscribed! Great videos, keep posting. Do you post all your gear anywhere? That little lamp you have on your stick is really cool, where did you get that?
Welcome, thank you, I will. I post a lot of my knives on Instagram and there’s a video we get back that I have a load out of the variety of gear. Is a UCO from Badger Claw Outfitters but he doesn’t have them anymore. You can search for UCO candlelight to get one. Let me know if you have any more questions. Cheers
I really like your style. Very old school. 😀. Your coffee, do you strain it or just let it settle?
Thanks, I’m a true adventurer. I just let the Coffee settle, a couple of grounds if that doesn’t bother me.
Love the folding fry pan, where did you source it from?
Hello Blaine, it was gifted to me a few years ago but I’m sure you can find them online.
I've been thinking of purchasing the Helko Werk Waxed Canvas Bedroll. Do you like it better than the Bushcraft Spain bedroll that you used in another of your videos? Was wondering how they compare. Thank you. Love your videos so much!
Hello, I prefer the Bushcraft Spain version, it’s softer. Nice of you to come along, and let me know if you have any more questions. Cheers
@@TheLoreofBushcraft Thank you so much for your quick response! I do have couple more questions: Does the Bushcraft Spain bedroll feel as sturdy and thick as the Helko Werk bedroll, and does the Bushcraft Spain Bedroll feel oily? Also any odor form the oil treatment? Apologize for so many questions. Hoping to purchase one or the other today. Thank you again! Very best to you!
@thegodream get the Bushcraft Spain, oily at first but that’s because it’s freshly done and that’s a good thing. Excellent build quality. Get it and you will love your decision, trust me. I don’t use the other one anymore.
@@TheLoreofBushcraft Great! Thank you so much!
Where are you located? My fiance and I keep guessing. But it's hard to tell. Just curious. Love your videos.
Hi Lauren, I’m presently in the north east United States. Lovely country isn’t it?
I really love the old school methods you used. Thanks for giving us some peace amidst the chaos of life.
Yeah I suppose I’m quite a romantic (old school). I'm honoured that you completely understand my quote. Being in the woods certainly brings me peace and the fact that I can share that peace with others is one good thing that’s valuable in our modern life, technology wise. Cheers mate!
What kind of backpack? Where do I get one?
Hello mate, glad you like it. Unfortunately, the fellow doesn’t make them anymore. He was making them during the pandemic, but I guess when the pandemic ended he went back to his full-time job.
Anyway, here it is.
NEW BUSHCRAFT KIT: Boreal Bushcraft Pack, SRO Bedroll Cooker, Filson Guide Sweater, Barbour Liner

There you are! I’ve been worried about you and really hoping you’d do some new videos. Hope all is well is well and thank you.
Hi Russell, Happy New Year. Always in the woods but not always on RUclips. Thanks for kind words mate!
Love your content brother 🫡
Thanks for making my day! 💪
What brand jacket you wearing bro?
@whiskey23alpha64 Hi, that’s a Filson
Are you in the States?
I am presently, I’ll live here for a couple more years and then go back to the UK

@@TheLoreofBushcraft in the Pacific Northwest or east?

What are your thoughts on the Helko Werk Swiss Army wool blanket? Is it really worth $200? The canvas bedroll looks amazing.
update: I ended up purchasing 2 Ektos 100% wool blankets from Amazon. I saw the Helko Werk Blanket was rated at 460gsm and the Ektos at 600gsm AND I bought TWO for HALF the price.
Hello mate, I don't own a Swiss Army blanket. The 2 Types of blankets I do own are Hudson’s Bay Company 6 Point (Queen size) historical iconic blanket (yes the one you read about in school) used by Frontiersmen, Trappers, Soldiers, Native Americans, Traders and Mountainmen since the 18 century. I also use Bushcraft Spain Merino wool blankets (King & Full). The cost is $400 for the Bushcraft Spain and $700 for Hudson Bay. They are in my opinion, the best Bushcraft blankets one can use without a doubt.

🏕️🌿💪 Thanks!
@@TheLoreofBushcraft I AM SUBSCRIBED 💪🏼👍🏼
Holy molly how many kilos did have on your back?
approximately 13.6 I know backpackers, who carry more than that
@@TheLoreofBushcraft that back pack looked to me like 17 kilo?
yeah, I weighted it with food
@@TheLoreofBushcraft How long do you hike from you vehicle to that campsite?
@sipapito it all depends, mostly a few kilometres and 45 minutes to one hour. I’m an athlete, I’m an Ultra marathon, I box, I cycle and I lift weights. I’m 50 years old today and I’m in better shape than I was at 20.

Much appreciated, Richard!
