  • This week's video, we had the pleasure of filming with Cody Lundin. Many of you many recognize Cody from his survival TV series on Discovery Channel. The guy is truly a master of his craft.
    Imri asked Cody how he would make a knife in the field... Cody replied back with "It's not a knife you need in an emergency... It's a CUTTING EDGE." Imri & I were expecting Cody to show us how to make a knife out of bone or scrap steel. Instead, Cody slapped two rocks together and shit out a sharp edge that could easily cut cloth, cordage, or wood. Note, it wasn't what he did, but the EXACT way he hit them together. Angle is everything. A picture is worth a thousand words... but a video with Cody is priceless!!!
    Cody and Imri hit it off as friends a while back, and Cody agreed to film a couple videos for Tactical Rifleman. Understand he doesn't do this video stuff anymore. So, we are honored to have him select Tactical Rifleman to showcase some of his favorite skills.
    Cody is a natural instructor and true master of primitive survival skills. If you want to take classes with Cody, you can sign up for his Aboriginal Living Skills School, at www.codylundin...
    We hope you enjoy the video. Please let us know if you want us to invite Cody back. We are already jumping for the chance. TR

    Why We Love Cody 💓
    The Unaired Scenario
    The Arrival of the Downfall of Dual Survival
    (Disclaimer: Not exactly verbatim)
    Joe: "Hold up Cody!"
    Cody: "What is it Joe!"
    Joe: "Well first off Cody, you aren't wearing any shoes! But anyways. Do you see those two trees up ahead?"
    Cody: "Which two? There's a bunch Joe."
    Joe: "You don't see that!?"
    Cody: "What?"
    Joe: "Look about 40 meters in between those two trees on the ground!"
    Cody: "Oh that."
    Joe: "You see it Now.. Right!?"
    Cody: "Well.. if it's the same thing I'm seeing.. it looks like a pile of dirt Joe."
    Joe: "Cody! That's an Ant Pile."
    Cody: "Okay?.. What about it?"
    (Joe now explains to the cameraman)
    Joe: "When I was in Special Forces you are taught to always keep your head on a swivel. If you come across an Ant Pile of that magnitude in size, you Do NOT turn your back on it. And in Special Forces training, when you come across something that Lethal, you do Not approach it.. at all. PERIOD! In Special Forces, you are taught that an Ant Pile just doesn't have Not One or Two Ants ready to Ambush you, there are literally a lot. And in Special Forces, when just One Ant picks up on your scent, it lets all the other Ants know that you are around. And in Special Forces, you are taught that when those Ants realize that you are around, even if it's 40 meters away, you are Now compromised. There is No Way that I am going to allow my partner nor myself to face the danger of a massive horde of Ants to Ambush me or my shoeless partner. PERIOD!"
    Joe: "What about it!? Cody, you are out here with No shoes on and an Ant Pile that big is literally 40 meters away. I am Not turning my back on that Ant Pile!"
    Cody: "Joe, let's just keep going and just walk around the Ant Pile and find a place to build a shelter and make a fire and try to find some water and food."
    Joe: "Are you kidding me Cody!? No! I'm going to low crawl off to the left and flank them and Utterly Destroy that threat!"
    Cody: "Do what?"
    (Again, Joe talks to the cameraman)
    Joe: "You see, that's what I'm talking about. Cody doesn't understand that I am Special Forces with skills that HE doesn't have. And Cody is out here with No shoes on with a freaking Ant Pile right in the path of our mission target. If I allow my partner to get near that Ant Pile, it's game over. PERIOD!"
    Cody: "Joe, I've dealt with many Ant Piles over the years. Beginning when I was a child. If you don't bother them, they won't bother you."
    (Again Joe talks to the cameraman)
    Joe: "In Special Forces training, you are shown a Documentary on how dangerous Ants can be. It's called.. Attack Of The Killer Ants. Ants are nothing to take lightly. I've seen the destruction of what Ants can do."
    Joe: "Cody! If you aren't going to help me get rid of this threat, just move back about 80 meters or so. I'll handle this."
    Cody: "Okay Joe. Well, when you feel that your life isn't in any more danger, I'll be in the shelter I'll build sitting next to the fire I rubbed two sticks together and you can rehydrate and fill up on some calories from the food and water that I gathered for you.. I mean us."
    (Joe finally arrives at the shelter)
    Joe: "I had to call in an airstrike."
    Cody: "Why?"
    Joe: "There were just too many Ants to flank."
    Cody: 🤔
    Joe: "If only I had a magnifying 🔍 glass..."
    Cody: "It was just an Ant Pile Joe."
    Joe: "Exactly Cody! ... Was.. an Ant Pile 🐜🐜🦗🦗🐜🦗...."
    When Joe arrived, the producers should of changed the show's name to Duel Survivor

    To me, Cody is also holding a axehead. So, not only would I have a cutting edge blade from the stone, I would also be able to fit what is left of that stone into the fork of a 3 to 4ft stick about 4 to 5 inches round. Tie that sucker down tight! or wedge it if possible... and now I have a functioning axe. I love Cody.
