You could probably tie a bunch of sticks together in a round, so they form the tube for the string to go through, if you are struggling to find a wood that isn’t pithy in the centre or easy to core out,
Very clever stuff and easy to carry and place where needed than fiddling around with triggers and stuff
1:28 another tip , that we use up in N.canada..is we heat up the wire , by a camp fire...and burn the hole through. If you get a few wires heating at the same time...you can get that hole , burnt out in no time. cheers
great idea mate , nice one
You can also fireharden the prongs, sharper and stronger, less prone to snapping off in your meal.
Very good. Today we'd use a wire snare to prevent chew out, but in primitive situations where only natural cordage is available, the pipe prevents chew out.
cheers mate
My guess would be the stick was to stop the animal from chewing the cordage of course that is my guess . thank you for sharing this .i enjoyed watching it .👍
Cheers tim
Just a quick observation... it seems like the rear vertical stick could be used to secure the open end of the string. It also seems like waxing the string would make it glide smoother, making it more "instant". Thanks for sharing this unique snare.
I think you're right it was used to prevent chew out and hold the animal still. I've seen the inuit use a similar bone pipe snare for ground squirrels.
i,ve not seen the bone version i,ll have to look for it, cheers
Elder, thank you. I have been racking my head trying to remember that wood, because of how easy it is to pull out the pith. We made whistles out of them in the scouts.
Cheers mate
Also known as Elderberry Bush. Fruits were used for vitamin c in days of old. Still found in woodland/hedges and gardens.
It grew crazy in Minnesota, now I'm in southern Colorado and the vegetation is not the same, to say it simply.
@@forcesightknight yeah,its a wetland shrub,to dry there abouts for it to grow,still,its at least warmer.you won't need as much vitamin c,not as many cold and snot bugs around there.silver linings and all that. 🏴👍😁🏴
Ash has pith too
Everyone in the comments wanting to over complicate a perfectly good simple trap. Nice video 👍
Interesting trap. I'm guessing that the more the points dug into the animal the more it would pull - catch 22 - and the faster the animal would pass out.
Thread some cordage through the elder (after the pith is removed) then add some fine sand to one end and work the cordage back and forth dragging the sand through the middle (works like sandpaper) to polish the inside of the elder.
Dinosaur Colorado USA saying hello and thank you for sharing
Growing up on a farm and working and living with animals also being a active seasoned trapper I believe the spikes actually were to possibly keep the animals for choaking themselves out because the spikes would induce pain making it relax tension. However it would keep tension trying to escape but not strangle itself to death or exhaust itself
Nice one mate, cheers
I think it would be the opposite. I was taught with wire snares to leave the end of the wire sticking into the loop because when it tightens and pokes them in the back of the neck they freak out and strangle themselves faster.
@@freakouuut true I guess in the end it works so that's good
Old weasel trap is drill a hole in a tree and drive 3 16 penny nails to a point and spray blood in the hole ...
They go in for the blood but when they try to back out fast it impales them
Taking notes from Greene county North Carolina , useful information.
Cheers mate
Hare pipe looks like variation of the 1600s British Wick (or vice versa). Small copper tube diameter, and then insert jute/cotton waxed wick. Pull out wick and light for a small lighted candle. Pull wick back in for snuffing out. I make these with dreadlock of a cotton swabbie mop, perfect size for 3/8" pipe.
Would suggest that you make a two-strand stake lines. Stake line with the loop and tag end knot (in one direction). Then have another stake and tag end knot through the tubing (in other direction). No matter where the hare pulls AWAY from original stake, loop tightens up. Hare tries to pull TOWARD original stake, other strand makes pipe tighten up.
Using small copper tubing, then use metal file and rasp out the tubing gigging points. The loop chokes out the hare, choking off the carotid blood (and air) supply and the rabbit goes to sleep and dies from anoxia to the brain. Otherwise, the metal (or wood) gig tips would dig into the hare's throat (and carotid artery) all the time that it struggles in the trap ... literally stabbing and bleeding them out.
nice one john ,cheers mate
Bit like a sailors ropelighter...
🌲🌲🦅thank you for sharing your video the wooden tube guard snare set you have is very close to the bird bone tube guard snare set used by ancient peoples in Alaska and BC and probably elsewhere (the bone tube was a snare guard ) your video was great 🌲🌲🌲
Cheers Brian
nice and simple... what kind of animals you can trap with that? i mean what kind of foot will trap on the rope and it will not just slide in and out.
i think this one was used to keep the rabits alive they would stop chewing the cordage or attempting to so they could take them with them to dispatch later while traveling and i also think this was used to keep them alive so they could keep live stock of rabits much easier then hunting al the time you know what rabits do if there is a couple 😉 nice to see some old trap keep up the good work 💪👍👍
Looks a good trap. I used he bender snare which works well. If you had a drop weight that fell it would yank the cord tighter.
If a spring pole were used with a snare set he would have to worry about chew out when the rabbit is suspended in air
I believe the reason for the stick was to keep the animal from crewing through the cord , allowing you to use smaller cord or string .
That's a very interesting trap it looks the snare that animal protection agency use to catch stray animals.
yes it does mate , cheers
Brilliant design, really...probably more effective, than just a string, at dispatching the Prey.
Cheers ed
Sounds lovely, interesting and very clever
Great job on this demo ,thanks mate
thanks a lot mate
Will be interesting to see if it makes the animal not struggle as much when first caught,twine has a habit of snapping if frayed etc,the points cause pain,stops struggling until you arrive and quickly dispatch. Unless its like a fox snare type of non-release snare and forces unconsciousness. Would like to get that book,thanks for showing it to us. 🏴👍😁🏴
New trap to me bro. Thanks. Keep up the great videos. Excellent old English country field stuff. Love it.
We used to make when we were bairns likr,, we used copper pipe, if u hit the sharpend copper with a hammer a couple of times it stiffens up enough to do the damage and we used pike traces for ligature. Never killed em but jammed em right up. Was rabbits we were after though.
Worked every single time. Dont think we missed one.
We dangled ours though as opposed to crossways
Several times a day I work on getting the pith out, Mate!
Hahahaha
Brilliant little trap mate, the skill is in identifying a Hare run.
Cheers
very good. I think I might make a couple in wood and a couple with pvc and see how they work out.
I reckon that would work good
Nice to be able to have a willow tree around. In the California desert , we aren't so lucky .
I haven't spent time in the California desert, but in the high desert of Arizona you can find willow growing around some of the washes
The stick dies prevent the animal from chewing the cord as easily but the the two spikes or"pikes" also give the animal the sensation that it is being attacked and triggers the flight instinct. As the animal "flees" it draws the cord tighter and speeds up death for a quicker and mire humane kill.
Just so you know , being killed is not humane , death is death in the end.
@@fishmut yes but quicker is less torcher so more humane though you are right it's nit perfectly humane. Neither is failure to control invasive species population so that they starve and do damage to native species a humane practice. Finally expecting humans to starve in order to save animal suffering, is just silly. Expecting modern sentiment is especially silly in the medieval context of these traps where people were often starving and these traps provided necessary food.
Woow. ..Thanks for video. ..
We use a small of bamboo here in the states
Nice one mate
How common is trapping where you live? On the east coast of the southern U.S it has become a lost art. Further north it may be more common.
trapping in England is more for pest control, so its quite common to do it here , more in the countryside i would say though
Trapping in the northeast United States is alive and well, we just keep a low profile considering how violent and easily triggered everyone has become.
Смотрю на его руки в наколках как он апредиляет грязные руки или чистые ?
Question what keeps it from losening off if the animal quits fighting it and paws or just chews the stick and loosens it?
That trap would be a lot easier made if you used bamboo
Use what you got in your area, survival snares etc you can’t go shopping for a piece of bamboo dude.
Tape 2 sharp nails to the end of the stick.to make sharp points.put your wire in a drill to drill out pith.
cheers mate
When you were carving the spikes I thought, that looks a bit like a bird whistle. I think whistles were made from reed, but I suppose elder would work too.
Great video keep them coming
Interesting. A type of snare, I suppose. Thanks for showing.
yes , cheers mate
Would this trap work on squirrels?
Pure skills the lad👍
cheers mate
how do you get your scent from it. Must smoke it.
Confirm the hare will trapped please tell
Interesting my man.
Gracias por compartir!!
Not seen this one before mate! Different and interesting! Thanks for sharing brother 👍🏽👍🏽Best wishes
cheers mad dog
If you heat the wire to red-hot in colour, not white-hot, it will burn it out the pith much easier with smooth tunnel sides. Cheers.
Great job Malc! I was looking for that book years ago, and forgot all about it. I'm interested.to see what else comes of it. Finally, someone with some fresh traps! 😁
cheers sam , hopefully i can do a quite few from that book , some have no real explanation though , so i,ll have to work from the pics but most make sense at least ,cheers mate
I Wonder what the knuckles on the left hand used to say
Fun video. Thanks for sharing.
I wouldn't whittle the spiked end down all far, you want the spiked to also be strong to a degree, he better to shave it like flat edging a pencil by only shaving 2 sides to form a wedge tapering to the middle then shave the sides down to get the desired finer point
Very cool, thanks for sharing.
At first I thought it was the hare pipe you make to call hares,,but going to watch anyways as all aspects of hunting trapping etc are my thing. 👍
Would you be better using elder .?
Be better to see some of these traps in action.👍
I wonder if elder would be a bit fragile for the job?
You did a great job. Thanks.
Cheers David
Great trap! Thanks man.
Make two. If the snare fails, you have a pea shooter.
I love you knife, where did you get it ? Or did you make it?
(RUS) какое дерево используете для трубки? я сначала подумал, что вы высверлили-прокололи отверстие в ней, но по переведённым комментариям понял, что просто выдавили сердцевину... Так можно сделать не со всякой древесиной. Есть русский вариант такой ловушки - там используют трубчатую птичью кость вместо дерева - мне кажется, что она дольше продержится против заячьих зубов ;-) но её ещё надо добыть :-)
Similar to a snake rope holding or bad animal holding trap! By the way, nice tattoo's!
Хрена себе, брат, ты синий, прям как я. Молодец!
do its legal to set snares in U.K. or is a season to set them I know itrs in winter but do you need a license ?
In England it's legal to set non locking snares without a license . But in Scotland you need a license to set snares
@@JJRSURVIVAL Thats crazy. In the US you can hunt with knives, spears, bow and arrows, firearms. You can trap with cages, legholds, body grips,(conibear).
Nearly every state, No Snares! A few allow it.
Genial muchas gracias por compartir tus conocimientos, fuerte abrazo!
The main idea behind this trap is to not only strangle the prey but also tines create a wound that will not close as the animal struggles.
I could see using it for rabbits maybe coyotes, hang it vertically, head high over a trail they run, I'd use some sort of cable or wire.i could see in a survival situation with heavy enough wire and a good anchor a guy could share a deer.
Cheers mate
On cayotes? Thats animal abuse. Because they not death they only stuck in this loop. Not good at all
استاد خیلی خوب بود،فقط اون آخر کلیب که گذاشتن تله بود، زود تمام میشه، بازهم تشکر داره.
Thanks
Nice one brother
cheers thomas
Badass brother. I like seeing people reference old literature and show stuff like this. I subbed and will be watching for your vids. Keep going man!
Thanks a lot mate , much appreciated .
what tool do you use to drill the wood??
First video I’ve seen from him not the face I expected with the voice
Для чего это?
I've trapped a few squirrels with just a simple snare and a piece of bait. This looks like a nice design though.
Definitely increases efficiency and keeps the animals from chewing out of the snare
Cheers mate
Dangerous as hell cutting toward your hand like that.
nice, and they cant chew the rope either, i like it
cheers mate
Heat the wire and it burns right through along the grain.
Nice one cheers
(RUS)Сразу видно опытного сидельца - все руки в наколках :-) "Восемь ходок - семь побегов: погоняло "мотороллер" ;-D Потому и в ловушках разбирается - кабана,видимо, не всегда удавалось с собой прихватить ;-D (шутка, но в каждой шутке всегда есть доля шутки).
Where did you find that book I cant find it anywhere??
if i can find the link i,ll send it you mate
Did you find the link?
So the secret to it is extracting the pith
Very clever trap but would be much better if it could be connected to some sort of sprung device so that death would be really quick; with the method described here, the poor animal would be struggling in pain for a long time - Cruel !!
One rason why I would never use a static snare.
Looks like it will work 😎
Thanks
Steady friend
What type of wood do you use? Alder or Elder?
Elder
Would that work on rats please tell me 👍🏻
if it was made to the right size i think yes mate
Nice Buddy
Great video malc keep them coming
cheers william
iv seen this one b4 but i think now we have easy access to wire this trap is a bit pointless
always thought it was a bit cruel aswell, they often strangle themselves without the spikes.
maybe if it kills them quicker the hare would be less likel;y to be found by a fox or another human so you dont get them knicked
cheers mate , its a very weird trap really , but i suppose they did a lot weird things back in the old days lol
@@JJRSURVIVAL I do believe that this method would kill quicker and not slower thus attracting less attention of the other predators .
What's your knife?
Good idea but not so reliable to trap every animal that passes through.
Never seen this before here in North Borneo..
I got a couple of other traps apparently from borneo on my channel. Cheers for watching mate
@@JJRSURVIVAL i would like to watch & learn. Thanks for sharing
I think if the points were barbed like straightened out fishing hooks then it'd be fool proof
Never seen that one before very interesting Malc 👍👏🇬🇧
Cheers Tony
looks great,its a interesting point
thank you mate
"Just by pushing the pith out of it."
Thanks!
Thanks mate
Kannur in Kerala😍😍😍💯👍
Cheers
Круто👍
Cheers
6:20 yep! 😁
Great
New sub right here cracking video
Thanks mate
