  • Ovens is tired of sleeping in his truck, so he stretches out on a Solo Winter Hammock Camping Overnight (with his puppy, Findlay). While there, he throws some new knives and shares winter edible plant survival tips.

    Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

    I like the "I'm Greg Ovens and I will see you on the next one" for the outro

      I’m sure if Mr Fowler is reading he’d appreciate, based on Mr Oven’s face when during his visit he insisted on grace, that I’m not at all religious either but our Greg is certainly closer to God minus any gimmicks or catchphrases. We like things pure in these here parts and they don’t come purer than this ;)

      Using a hatchet in deep soil without rocks is not the problem. Straightening a rolled edge is not difficult, and the metal sharpens easily. Problems arise when the edge is notched by a rock and too much metal is lost in remaking the edge.

    Honestly not a fan of the movie clips constantly being added in there. These videos convey such a pure, natural atmosphere and suddenly there's some cringey quote from a 90s movie popping up like a bad Family Guy cutaway joke.
    I mean, if it helps getting / keeping more viewers, I understand.
    Might be a good topic for a straw poll. Maybe I'm alone with this opinion, but I can't imagine this channel's audience being 100% psyched about the clips.
