Sugar and honey has been used to treat battlefield wounds for hundreds of years. It has something to do with osmotic pressure. It was popular during the Napoleon Wars. The sugar draws lymph into the wound, nourishing regenerating tissues, preventing bacteria growth, drying them out and leaving them weak and fragile. After that it promotes new tissue growth that causes infection, swelling is reduced, white cells that help clean and debride the wound are attracted and nourished, and a protective layer of protein is formed over the wound. Sugar also deodorizes necrotic wounds.
So many people talk about being minimalist and having more skills but I think it's important for people to be aware of all the potential pieces of equipment and supplies that can be useful for survival
I found carrying a few of those plastic drinking straws that are filled with honey are very useful and pack easily. Can be used as an energy booster a sweetener. Antiseptic. Works well on cuts and burns. I also do the same with the pine pitch that comes out of the little blisters on spruce trees. I collet a bunch in a little jar and then put it into straws of different lengths for use as many things like wound care fire starting and much more I have also used straws for single serve salt and pepper or other spices I have some straws that have vasealine soaked cotton or jute twine in one end and a couple strike anywhere matches on the other then I just fold over the ends and heat seal them with an old clothes iron keeps things good and dry until needed
I have most of those items... I would add Dental floss to sew with pre- string the needle and wrap it around cardboard.... and a thin guitar string as a snare.. small one use tube of super glue... Single use Neosporin.. Burn gel..and a few medium bandaids and a razor blade taped up most of the way with just a quarter inch tip exposed...
I carry a a small lockpick that has about the size and appearance as a small pocketknife. Back in the 1970's I would carry a couple small Allen wrenches for lockpicking. Bobbie pins bend too easily for the work. In the past few years, I have switched from carrying 550 paracord to 550 braided fish line. It has the same test strength with far less volume. Because of this I can easily carry 100' or more in my pocket with plenty of room left for other items. I also carry a small tube of travel sized Vaseline and a small Ziplock bag of cotton balls. I think they are more versatile if I keep them separate until needed. I use a space blanket with orange on one side for signaling.
I trade out the Vaseline for tube of anti-boitic Ointment( not creme), think Neosporin etc. It's 99% petroleum jelly and does the same as Vaseline, but worth its weight in first aid value. A simple cut, while you're up the wrong creek can be bad news. You can also get it in the single use foil packs to keep in a kit.
Andrew, I usually pack 3 mylar space blankets with me! Use one to reflect heat on me in a lean-to deibri shelter, one for a debri bedbcover & one for cover..
Just a small tweak on the cotton ball item: I switched to carrying cotton makeup remover pads. They are compressed fairly flat, but can easily be fluffed up to the same loft as a cotton ball. They can be cut to fit a specific spot in your kit, or for a specific use. I just find them to be a tidier, more versatile option to a cotton ball, without giving up any of the used and advantages of a cotton ball.
If you're going to fish, I would recommend a fishing lure called a rooster tail, which has a silver spinner spoon and yellow hairs. I'm not really into fishing but that lure always works for me. A plain fishing hook won't do you good without bait, and bread spoils fast, so having a spinner with you will make fishing worth the effort. (I know bait can be dug up from the ground if needed, but I mean if you don't want to go bug hunting.)
Those do work pretty well. Another thing I do is I seal up in a straw 6 to 10 of those Berkley Crappie Nibble Power Baits. Those will last dang near forever in a sealed-up straw, and they work VERY well alone or added to the hook of a lure to add scent in the water.
Pocket carry is the most important to me because those items are the most likely things that you will have handy when they are needed. Nothing in this list is very expensive, but they're good items to always have. The cutlery looks to be the most expensive out of everything shown, but most people I know usually have at least one pocket carry knife at all times Thanks for the video. Looking forward to many more
A good item for your ifak is liquid skin. It's a tiny little tube that, when applied, acts like a plaster (band aid) and stays on for 4-5 days even with showers and baths. It automatically protects a cut.
Hi Andrew, greeting from Australia 🇦🇺, thank you for your time to make these videos available. You forgot the most important thing 1, knowledge 2, skills 3, The will to survive These extra 3 pieces weigh a lot, however without them you won't survive.
This is a great collection of tools. With one exception, I'd never carry a Buck knife when I could carry a SAK with multiple functions in the same size !
Using a bobin to properly store fishing line (and/or snare wire) is an excellent idea. If I can make a suggestion, consider to wrap around it a small section of a bicycle inner tube, to help keeping the line nice and tight. You can even use this trick to seal/waterproof the lids of small vials of pills or matches. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻😃
Sir, T Y again, Skipper! Great collection. I have four tiers of survival kits now. 1) Flat metal container twice the size of an Altoids can, with a real compass, mini tool, lighter, penlight, etc. 2) small shoulder bag with headlamp, ammo, snacks, Buck Woodsman 102, sharpener, tourniquets, protein base bug repellant, etc. 3) crossover pack with ammo, cooking pot, snacks, 3 ml drum liners, paracord, compass, maps, flashlight, etc. 4) medium ALCE pack with water filter, canteens, ammo, food, tools, light tent, sleeping bag, pad, tarp, etc. on a standard frame. Total weight ideally under 40 lbs., with flex to add several gallons of water, especially in hot desert. Plus bear killer handgun & folding single-shot 12 gauge with caliber inserts & a light.
I live in the desert South West and keeping food in a vehicle for emergencies can be difficult because of the heat. My go to for my kits is the "Jawbreaker" candies. It's not food, but it is energy. I get the smaller size, around 3/4 inch and with each individually wrapped. I put roughly 8 in snack bag and add this to my car kits. I have had these for years and they are still good to go. They don't melt or go bad from heat. It's another of those "set it and forget it" types of emergency preparedness.
I got a tip from a friend. Unroll the liter bag and put 2 or 3 of those foil 2 Packs of water purification tablets at the bottom, then roll it back up. That way you always have them where you need them. Same guy always told me to carry a 2 pack and an unlubricated condom in my wallet for the same reason. I like to have one of those fobs with a compass, magnifier & thermometer on the zipper pull of my fleece too.
Holy smokes almost 180k subs! Awesome to see. I originally subbed when you had less than 10,000. Great to see more people learning from you. You are an excellent instructor. Take care.
I started using "Twistons" lead weight (fly fishing supplies) instead of split shot. They are flat strips of Lead that you can cut to the size you need, Light or heavy, and they fit in the sachet much better than split shot sinkers.
That is a lot of good knowledge to have. My pea brain is going to have to watch this video over and over. LOL 😂. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom.
Out of the 35 to 40 You Tube Chanels that I watch on Bush Crafting and Survival Camping topic I like yours the best. Your a Very high cut above the rest. Thank You for what you do and keep it up we all NEED this. Again Thank You
Thank you sir for the very comprehensive look at items for our kits. A lot of work for you, but well worth it. Good education AND reminders on gear needed to survive.
My wife kept asking me about why I have a Camo compact in my B.O.B. so I made her watch one of your older videos lol... She then said "So it is a army thing." lol
You have undoubtedly heard this one. The BiC lighter with the long end with the piezoelectric lighting method. Love this, keeps fire starting from burning fingers. Less burn cream. As always, thanks Major!
Excellent as always! Could you do some videos on /for not wanting to be found ? With the way things are going in the world ,Tips on S.E.R.E might be handy
I carry my cordage inside my walking staff. Its a 2.5cm hollow steel tube and its 1.5m long... Room for lots of stuff in there. Very strong, very useful.
This is hands down my absolute favourite bushcraft channel on UA-cam. I really appreciate all the time and ambition you put into these videos and you have really given me a big interest in bushcraft and survival. Your videos are very proffesional and well thought out and i surely have become much more confident and calmer in the wilderness tnaks to you, Keep it up.
You might also add braided fishing line to the kit. It is super strong, and very difficult to cut. It has many uses and a 100 feet takes up very little space. Great video.
What did you pry the Suunto compass out of? I like the Suunto GITD Clipper model in my kits but I'd also like that Suunto in that style to replace the crap Chinese button compass. HardCase Survival sells those ceramic blades with a nice clear plastic sheath so you don't need to gum it up with tape. The Shomertec model comes in a bulky tube with no sheath.
Our young troops gave this video a thumbs up. The reason, they were happy to learn that their DIY kits have most of these items and they know how to use each piece.
Outstanding video,content/channel. Just throw out to you & get your thoughts on adding surgical tubing … many uses and relatively easy to carry… you decide what amount to carry. Keep up the great work. 👊🏼🇺🇸✌🏻
Great video, Andrew. In regards to the survival bivy SOL makes an Escape Bivy that is breathable. It runs a bit on the small side sizewise. But it is a pretty lightweight option compared to a gortex bivy. Stay safe.
Great video Andrew! Please keep sharing your knowledge no matter what the boss man says! It wouldn't matter if we could all afford all of your classes. And some of us never will. So should we be left to die? That's my answer... to why should we all share our knowledge before it is lost! 💯
Great video, lots of ideas! One recommendation I have, is to get lip balm in a "tooth paste" type of plastic tube. I have seen lip balm in a regular screw out tube melt and leak out if it gets too hot. This wastes the petroleum jelly and anything it soaks onto. The "tooth paste" type will contain melted petroleum and help protect the rest of the items in the kit from melted petroleum jelly. Just a suggestion.
Great Video ! Have an Automatic watch that is EMP proof and do not have to worry about over winding the watch ! The NATO style watchband (a British/NASA idea) holds the Suunto Button Clip-On Compass (my watch EDC) ! For the young girls that use the Mil. Face Paint and Chap Stick a Signal Mirror may be handy ! Some cotton can be mixed with the Chap Stick and put in the cap for a Fire Starter ! ! ! One of my Fire Kits is in a large shoe polish tin (and can protect a digital/Quartz watch from an EMP). Remember "The Ten Essentials" by the Seattle Mountaineers that will keep you safe overnight and bring you home safe the next day ! tjl

Hello from Detroit Michigan brother thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise and for taking us on your adventure in Survival
Did you guys get much snow down there this weekend
From jackson, mi, always great content
@@rancidcrawfish It was pretty good snow I had to drive in it from Detroit to Gary Indiana.
Hail and well met from just on the D's northern border!
Down & dirty survival tools. Cheers mate.!

Great job Andrew, I'm an old Marine (mid 60's) not really able to bug out, but I really enjoy your videos brother. GOD bless and Semper Fi
Absolutely love this pod cast
It's 18 minutes long. Posted 11 minutes ago. It has 273 views and 64 comments. Nice
Well when you wait all damn week for his video...... yeah the numbers makes sense
I consume A LOT of content, and most creators talk painfully slow, so I watch at max. 2x playback.
Because it’s Andrew 🔥
@@worm_vaquerothe mind of a zoomer. no patience. all consumption. void of character
Imagine that 😮

Lots of great ideas here. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge.
I dont mind a 1 hour video of you explaining every single item xd
Learning great inventory and packing skills from this channel. Thanks!

Excellent video Andrew! Made use of the "pause" button quite a bit so I could write this stuff down.
Ive been bushwacking for 50yrs. Picked up a few new ideas from you sir. Thanks alot from 🇨🇦
I love wearing the wazoo cache belt... you can fit so much of this stuff in there and you don't even notice it.
I carry my cordage inside my walking staff. Its a 2.5cm hollow steel tube and its 1.5m long... Room for lots of stuff in there. Very strong, very useful.
Great video. I usually pick up some kind of tip off of all your videos and it makes a little bit easier while we were in the woods.
For urban survival, I'm planning on buying a wallet size bogata lockpick set with a padlock shiv.

Great stuff, Andrew! 👏🔥😎
Hey Andrew, another great video. Do you think you can do a video on knot tying with the most useful knots that you use in the field? Thanks guy
Andrew, sweet video 📹!! You're great instructor. Proud of this. Keep up the awesome work 👌

Thanks for the great information
Sawyer mini is way better option imho than the straw and good for 100,000 gallons.
Lumitop Edc01 flashlight with a diffuser is more versatile than a chemlight, can be used to buzzsaw to and in general a great little flashlight.
Good video Andrew , thanks for sharing YAH bless !

Nice information
Very cool! Thank you
Andrew, thank you for doing this video! There were so many things that I didn't even think about using! Absolutely awesome!!!
