  • Nature chill vibes at the Bushcraft camp! After making fire with Flint & Steel, a tasty bushcraft meal and good night's sleep in the hammock, it's time for some crafts in the forest. I make a woodworking table (bowlmate) and carve a Kuksa cup. The Kuksa mortal is used with a quickly crafted pestle to make a fresh wild garlic pesto with bread on a stick. It has been a great day in the Forest.

    I am a little tired of people trying to be critical of everybody trying to talk about how they do their Bushcraft... the fact that you are out there and actually doing it... Gives you street cred! I appreciate what you're doing, I enjoy your videos, please keep them coming! People who are critics need to realize that these videos aren't meant to be a one-and-done... if you pick up one or two hints on how you can improve your own options, good for you. He might not live in the same climate or area that you do... if you can leave his video with one thing that improves your Bushcraft... You should be happy and give him a thumbs up!! this is not about perfection for your situation... this is about teaching you what other people do in other situations that works for them... I appreciate that he reminded me to restock my bag with some items that I should have otherwise had in there... Thanks! My kids like this stuff too!

    Happy Easter from australia watching you cook simple food made me hungry just to add i suffer from anxiety and depression and watching your adventures with the sounds of the bush always has me feeling calm and relaxed has me thinking of the days when used to go down the river and just sit and absorb nature's gifts keep up the good work guys your public loves you

    Great video as always. I love the obvious effort you have put into cinematography recently, seems more like the quality of a David Attenborough film than a UA-cam short.

    Sycamore is the best choice for the Kuksa as its a wood that contains zero toxins and is safe for making eating and drinking utensils, nice job.

    I really enjoyed this one Julius and that pesto... I swear that I was drooling. Beautifully shot too. I used to bring a squash (butternut or acorn) when camping as they're not heavy and you can just put them on the side of the fire. Cut in half, scooped out and with some olive oil, delicious. Or filled with wild garlic pesto!

    • @SmoothGefixt
