    Felix. I had a Huntsman that had burned slabs. Watching you do other thing in your workshop gave me the idea to make my own slabs. I used cherry that I had left over from making a flintlock rifle. The hardest part was inletting the spots for the toothpick and the tweezers. I also have the hole for a straight pin. It's only 2.4mm thicker than a regular Huntsman. Thanks for inspiring me to do this job.

    Great idea regarding the nail file Felix, I have now fitted one to my Huntsman. All I did was wrap the file alongside the saw blade with a couple of folds of light kitchen aluminium foil. It keeps the file in place and takes no extra room. I used a piece of foil around 4cm wide and wrapped it tightly around both the saw and file a couple of times. It sits flat and if you finish with the the loose end tucked under the blade when its closed it wont move. The trick is to wind it tight. Love your videos 😊

    Hallo Felix - mal wieder eine geniale Idee. Danke
    Ich habe die natürlich sofort umsetzten müssen...nur habe ich die Feile irgendwie nicht in Ranger Wood gebracht so das Sie hielt. Ich habe aber an meinem Messer auch ganz kleine extrem flache Neodym Magnete - die mir auch schon das eine oder andere mal den hintern gerettet haben. 😛
    Diese fix auf die Feile geschoben und an die Säge gehalten - was soll ich sagen - hebt mega und die Magnete sind dort auch besser untergebracht wie am Korkenzieher. 😆
    So bin ich nun wieder ein Stück glücklicher mit meinem Ranger Wood ☺ Danke dafür!

    Hello there thank you for such a helpful channel. After years of buying not necessarily the wrong knifes I switched to a huntsman. Great knife. The knives I was using for edc were always just too big and of course the legality of carrying one comes into question. I love watching your channel because I get the maximum use out of my victorinox huntsman. The tip I'm passing on isn't my idea I saw a bushcraft channel about a year ago and it was there I got the information. When out and you need to start a fire one of the best things to have to help in this endeavour is a guitar pick. Very inexpensive and takes up zero room in your bug out bag. Just feather it with your blade and strike sparks with a ferro rod and you have a fire lickety split because the guitar pick is very flammable. Hope this was useful. Keep up the good work.
