Awesome Dave what time is dinner 😂 that looks delicious

Nom nom!

Chef premo. Great job.thank you

I'm a vegetarian [ I eat chicken and fish but chicken and fish are vegetables right? 😅 ] but that looks awesome Dave!

Awesome smoke! Love your setup. This is a way of life here in Carolina. Love the smell of smoke and simmering sauce!

Besides salt and pepper, you might want to also carry some frying oil for the skillet, but I don't know if a film canister is the best way for storaging liquids. Perhaps some small glass bottle with screw on cap would be better for the oil.

I'm a fan of beech cutting boards. They are anti-microbial. I just offer them up to a planer when they get a bit beat up.

The old mil spec Parkerization is also still available from Brownells. I use EEZOX , and since 1987 I haven't had any major rusting problem on my Cold Steel Carbon V outdoor tools. I do not work for them or sell EEZOX

Walter Sorrells did a video called "Caring for carbon steel knives" , using a version of an old gunsmith process that converted the Fe302 to Fe304 , from red rust to magnetite. Far more stable and durable finish than most forced patinas

I worked in waste water treatment and know that purple stain very well. You got lucky with the navel jelly. Worked in the lab 47 years and had to use the emergency shower only once. To me even mustard is just more chemicals. Love your video, thank you for leaving that accident in the video. I know sh*t happens. My job depended on that.

Well, here i go again. For a short time i got into making knives, until i found that by the time id smoothed them into what i wanted id used so much material in polishing and spent so much time that it wasnt practical to sell them. I sold a few but felt embarrassed by the prices i had to charge, and at that, i still wasnt making anything on time spent. Point is I quit. But i did find out that 2 ton epoxy is good stuff, but not the best. If a knife is left out in direct sun the epoxy will turn to syrup and the handles will loosen. Not so JB Weld. It will stand both heat, cold and wet, and i believe it will still be holding the handle long after the steel is long used up.

That sheath really looks good. Not for metal but knife sheaths or any kind of leather a blow dryer and Vaseline petroleum jelly. Just glob the jelly on at one spot and use the hair dryer to heat and push it along. It will liquify like water and soak into the grain of old dry leather. You can take old stiff leather and watch it wilt into a flexible limp noodle. You can do hard bees wax the same way on the ratiest old wood you can find. It will make a thin coating that will go into the grain and put a paper thin even layer on top that can be polished. Warning on the Vaseline jelly. It will open up the cracks in the leather so they can be seen. But it will be durable and, for an old sows ear, it won't look too bad.

Dave thanks for your videos, I watch all of them here in Philippines. So for nice and robust patina on a blade it’s good to use also ferric chloride - this is what they do very common for commercial/manufacturing knifes. Ah, I also worry about Patriot (Dwaine) He just disappeared that is. I hope he is ok, and nothing bad happened with him. Anyway God bless you Dave. Always stay safe and put your head on a swivel (Patriot words)

I’ve been a full time butcher for 40 years and I will take a carbon blade over stainless every time for a whole list of reasons. Also prefer wood handles over any other material for comfort. I use mustard on my hunting knives (mostly 1095 also A2) and noticed if I just barely dab mustard on the blade it gets a darker finish. Less mustard (real thin dabs) seems to gets better colors. I kinda agree if it’s carbon you should put a patina on it.

Interesting

Very good job. Like all of them. Thanks for the video and instructions

If you're interested, Solingen is pronounced ZAW-lin-gen, with the g pronounced as a g rather than a j.

Thanks for sharing

Maybe those copper rivets come with a coating on them to protect them. I would maybe wire wheel them with a Dremel and see if that works to get them prepped for the patina.

Japanese Lunch boxes, called Bento boxes. I have one.

You can drill a small hole in the double wall bottle and it will work to heat water on a fire. Good video and a nice thrift store find

very cool! I learn a lot from your channel. Thanks

I liked the blueing the best! Ringo to ya!!!

Raw potatoes will pot that blue hue on carbon steel

Great thoughts on this subject! Not really a fan of forced patina. I have plenty of knives with beautiful natural aged patina. But only if I get one that is badly pitted I will knock the rust off smooth out the surface and coat with cold blue finish for a nice look and takes the eyes away from the pitting. My general rule is still if it ain’t broke don’t fix it!

Crushed black walnut hulls mixed with water will stain steel they use to stain gun barrels with it

I like what you’re doing I do very much the same things . I’m a fan 👍

Hey Dave, I've been loving your videos of all of your creativity and craftsmanship. I've been wondering if there is any way to get my hands on some of your inventions, do you have an Etsy shop or anything like? If so, I'd be a fast customer!

The small tin turn in to a first aid kit. The super small tin you put your medicines like asperin, antiacid, , alcohol and hydrogen peroxide, and water purification tablets or pool chlorine bleach tablets .

Great job

Great kit. I'd bet some of your sealant rubbed into a cotton ball would work for firestarter too.

ID be temped to keep some aluminum foil folded up in there to make it like a little oven within an oven. etc. very cool.

Nice kit, although it's quite heavy. The handle of the skillet can be made by drilling two holes near the top of the small side to insert a specially bent wire-handle (as shown by 'waypointsurvival'). Mineral oil is not food-safe, you should use camellia oil instead, pure or mixed with bees wax. A small bottle of dish-soap and a piece of rubbing pad would be a useful addition.

I use that large collapsible as a pot for a quick brew, make sure you pull it tight before filling though. 😂🤘

in my case I would load it with my food and carry all the spoons and other items in a bag

Small tin for flour, shortening in the tiny one inside.

This twenty three (23) minute video is one of, if not the best, DIY video I have watched on your channel to date! BRAVO! We particularly appreciate the details you put into your projects. You would have a total blast perusing the isles of the DIY, Japan import, and Korean import shops scattered around the Philippines. The empty suitcases you arrive with would return home full of potential project materials. Combined with what we find on Shopee, Lazda and now Temu online sites, there is enough raw materials to keep a DIYer very busy. The Philippines has trade agreements in place with many nearby countries so pricing is super low on most items we find. We have found a plethora of round, square, rectangular, and oval stainless steel containers to build custom cook kits. Many times, great containers are sold as "bento boxes." Some have removable folding handles and the clip locks just like the pot you demonstrated. Your formed aluminum pot hanger is pure genius. You may want to look up the Far North Bushcraft channel. The channel owner, Lonnie, made some fantastic sling type pot hangers from small diameter stainless steel cable and ferrules available at hardware stores and online. I made up several sets for pots (several, rather large in size) we intended to suspend from a tripod. The same materials might also be adapted to hang your pot, with out the need to form a sling. Thank you for another superior video!

Make a tinder fire kit with the small one

You should take a look at "tiffins", which are the Indian lunch boxes. They stack taller, but in a cylinder shape They seem like they'd have a fun review from you

I really like this kit. I did a quick check on line. There are kit that are to bad. But you know the quality of this kit. All you need is a haversack and some place to go.

The small one would make a small med kit.

Great old lever action. You should do a follow up video shooting it.

That mess hit is a100 times better than any other great job Dave

The adult lunch box is a very deep rabbit hole. I don't do outdoors much but occasionally spend a day or two at some hotel room here and there on work trips where I often have breakfast and an evening snack in my room to avoid the usual excessive salt, sugar, and fat of eating out. Food grade PP is a *very* safe plastic but I prefer glass and still on the look for small vials for my pepper, english mustard powder, smoked paprika, and cinnamon along with glass bottles with glass stoppers for my olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce. Recently had a back and forth on another lunch box video about the quest for a small portable grater for nutmeg, hard cheese, or chocolate.

Winchester rifle and knife are solid. American quality. Thanks for sharing.

well that was fun to watch.

Very creative, interesting additions. 😮

Very cool great modifications. The folding butter / steak knife is awesome. Thanks for sharing!

I would like to see you go out in wild and use that kit

Awesome job 🔥👍
