Dave I've watch alot of your videos now and I've noticed you dont make videos anymore. Will you ever start making new videos? I really enjoy your videos.
Great video. You’re easy to listen to. It seems like you’ve found some high value items to enjoy the outdoors without going broke!
Dave, I've been watching your videos for at least three years now and I've always appreciated your quality and attention to detail. Your positive attitude and calm demeanor are infectious. Keep up the great work brother! Have a blessed holiday season.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very nice comment, my friend! I really appreciate all of your kind words, support and encouragement over the years! I hope you are having an excellent Holiday Season and I look forward to talking with you again soon! -Dave
Finally a troll free, helpful no nonsense get to the point bushcraft video. Thank you sir. It shows you can get out there and have quality gear without going in debt. Good common sense survival equipment.👏👏...subbed
Thank you for taking the time to watch, sub and leave your awesome comment, Mike! It's great to have you here, my friend, and please don't be a stranger! -Dave
Glad to see I'm not the only one who really likes the Ozark Trail headlamps. I have friends with really nice ones who like mine more, which is pretty hilarious when they find out it's from Wal-Mart.
I love the Ozark Trail headlamp! I've owned others that were much more expensive but I've like this one the best and its build like a tank! I feel like its lasted forever through all types of weather. Not to mention, the beauty is in it's simplicity and you cannot beat running it on 3 AAA batteries! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! -Dave
Nathan 4071 ferro rods are great! I have bought 4 in total in the past year! 100% no issues! Thanks, Great video!👍🏻
I couldn't agree more, Tim! Nathan sells them for a great price, too! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! -Dave
Very nice bushcraft loadout! I usually use the Wal-Mart Ozark Trail tarp as a ground cloth. It's a decent tarp to have for simple tasks. Yet, I've been thinking about getting a wool blanket to get me off the ground or keep me warmer with my bushcraft sleep system set-up.
Thank you for taking the time to watch, Jason! The wool blankets from HF are very affordable and very effective! -Dave
I am the same Dav...I got the Vulture 2 maxpedition for my edc. It is a little bit tacticool, which I wanted for the pouch attachments options..Love it for my daily early morning hikes , and work. I get alot of men whom comment on it and I enjoy the time , to explain to them, about what I carry and why. (fak pouch, possibles pouch and water bottle.) Alot of them ask where I get it, for their future purchases. The 1000 denure matierial is so tough and the 45liter is very comfortable for adding weight for my cardio workouts.
8:00 I love that LAP Chest attachment ..that is really nice. 😎👍💖
cheers
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Kanzee! Sounds like you have an excellent time on your hike and provide others with great gear recommendations! The LAPG chest attachment is outstanding! Can attach to the pack or be worn by itself. Very useful piece of gear. -dave
Good to see you again Dave. Enjoy the best season of the year :-)
Good to hear from you, John! Thank you for taking the time to stop by and you enjoy the best season, as well! All too short here in the Northeast, where we already have lots of snow! -Dave
Thanks for sharing. The 24 hour pack looks nice. iv been using the 12 and 24 hour packs since their release and have been super happy with them. Very nice selection of gear.
Thank you for taking the time to stop by, my friend! It's great to hear that you are also enjoying the LAPG Atlas packs! Do you prefer one pack over the other? I have always been curious about the 12 hour. My favorite is still the awesome LAPG Operator Backpack, however the Atlas packs are great, too! -Dave
opps. I just noticed I say i have the 12 and 24 hour. I actually own the 12 and 72 hour packs. I wouldn't say I prefer one over the other. I fill the 72 hour completely up and use it when traveling to a base camp. For the 12 hours I really only use it for when hiking away from basecamp. I can fit my camera, survival kit, first aid kit, hammock, water filter, and a meal into the 12 hour so its good for when away from the base camp.
Very practical rig, brother, and not just because I use a lot of the exact same components including the lesser expensive accoutrements like Ozark Trail products, and especially the Bahco Laplander and the Council Tool Hudson Bay LOL. Tried-and-true equipment, regardless of price, is imperative upon its dependability, personal likes, and functionality.
Looks tremendously like my own rig. Once you've done this long enough, you really do find out what works and you stick with it.
Good to see you put out another video my friend.
Take care!
Great minds think alike, my friend! Very well said, especially the part about doing this long enough and knowing what works and what you stick with! This is all stuff that I have been able to depend on, especially with the weather and season changes. I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and leave your awesome comment! -Dave
@@HighCarbonSteelLove
Absolutely, brother. Keep up the great work!
Great minds, indeed ;)
Great setup my friend. Choices are well thought out...you spend money when it is important and when you don’t need to you don’t. God bless you and your family. John
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! Great to hear from you and I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! -Dave
My dogs still scared of fire so he can't go on the longer trips but he does like when I use the Bahco to get him sticks, truly a multiuse tool!
I can definitely understand that, my friend! I do not bring my dogs on longer trips, either. They sure do love their sticks, don't they? Thank you for taking the time to stop by and leave your awesome comment! -Dave
You're right about the harbor freight wool blanket. Very inexpensive and keeps you warm.
Thank you for watching, Nathan! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by, my friend! I love the HF wool blanket, especially for the price! Great to hear from you, brother! -Dave
Great to see your videos again
Very practical gear for the average person
Great to hear from you again, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment! I believe that not all gear needs to be expensive to be effective! -Dave
Your great and so very authentic with your sincerity!! Great job
Excellent system! I like the chest attachment for the backpack.
Thank you for watching, my friend! -Dave
Excellent load out Dave! LA Police Gear makes some good products. I'm looking forward to the Bark River review
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Justin! You are exactly right about LA Police Gear and review of the ACK Forest coming soon, my friend! I hope everything is going well for you and your family, brother! -Dave
Everything is going well brother. I'm looking forward to the review. Have a good one
PERFECT SET UP , DOUBLE LIKE IT . All gears are good quality , tested & trustworthy.
I have small request ,Next time set up all gears like tent /hammock ,make a coffy & then point out them .
Nice to hear from you, my friend! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very nice comment! I will definitely try to make a video pointing out all the gear that I am using! -Dave
It's good to hear from you again.
It's good to hear from you, too, Eric! Thank you for taking the time to stop by and leave your very nice comment, my friend! -Dave
Yes!, your famous canteen kit, nice ensemble!
Haha! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Issac! It's great to hear from you, my friend, and I appreciate the kind words! -Dave
Great video. Like the fact you listed the things inside the pack below the video. Some will tell you, what they have. You have to catch what they say. Did you hear it right.Then replay it 4 or 8 times. I all so pick up my second Pathfinder knife. PKS GRIZZLY Dirty By Design. No dirt time yet! Came razor sharp. It heave, feels like a tool in your hand. It is a tad thicker then the PKS Scorpion. But I'm putting that on the steel run. As all ways, Thanks for taking US along!!!!
Thank you for the kind words, Lee! I like to list the items to save people the trouble that you described. Your new knife sounds excellent! Keep me posted on how you are liking it, my friend! -Dav
Always good to see what you're using. Thank you.
Great to hear from you, John! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! -Dave
Well made video. The gear is awesome. That knife is beautiful. Well throught out system. Looking forward to that knife review.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! I really appreciate the kind words! I will definitely get that AKC Forest review up soon! -Dave
Anytime bud. looking forward to it. Have a great evening/day!
Hey Dave it's worth my time, I was distracted by worldly things and watched this video about 3 times ;-) nice to see, you are still rocking a ferrorod from Nathan.
Hey my friend! Great to hear from you! I appreciate that you were able to watch the video, despite all the worldly things! Yes, Nathan's ferro rods are all I ever use, as they are great and affordable! Thank you for stopping by! -Dave
i think you need like 200k subs but i am personally happy that you are small enough to respond and commune with your subs
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your kind, encouraging comment, my friend! I really appreciate that! I enjoy the interaction! -Dave
Enjoyed the video and thanks for telling us about the Gulpy Dog Bottle. I bought one based on a earlier video of yours. It's great and still going strong. I hope you will do some more axe videos this fall and winter, I always enjoy them. Thank you Dave.
Thank you for stopping by, Scott! Great to hear from you, my friend! One of the many things I love about the Gulpy bottle is how strong it is and how long it's lasted! I didn't initially have high hopes on its durability but it's lasted well over 4 years and still going strong! I will definitely get out for more axe videos soon, Scott! -Dave
L.A. Police gear rocks. Hello my friend hope you are well. Great video & gorgeous country you have up there. Sometime in the near future I will make a video on my very old school L.A. Police gear 3 day pack. Take care Dave & keep enjoying the great out of doors. Oh yes Nathan & his ferro rods rock. - Marco
You are exactly right, Marco! I love LA Police Gear and very nice people over there! I look forward to your LAPG 3 day pack video and I hope everything is going well for you and your family, too! -Dave
Excellent assortment. Always enjoy your vids.
Thank you for the kind words, Urlock! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and always enjoy hearing from you, my friend! -Dave
Great to see you again. I always enjoy seeing how you set up your pack. Thank again for sharing.
Great to hear from you, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment! -Dave
Nicely packed. Enjoy Autumn and all its beauty. Best regards -Yves
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Yves! Very nice to hear from you, my friend and you enjoy the fall, too! Such a great time of year! -Dave
Is there a *real* reason for having so many cook kits/stoves in one pack for a single outing?
The guy has 3 ferro rods and some wood that is literally just for rubbing together to make fire. I don't think he's going for most practical here.
He specifically said the stuff in his pack is what he keeps in rotation. Such a weird thing to spend the time to comment on a video without even watching/listening...
@@Cavely what works really well is the lint from your dryer and it weigh's nothing
Dave, Your Fall Pack Is INCREDIBLE!. So many great items, in a comfortably sized pack.. Your videos are always on my repeat list. Keep up the great work ! Sir: you are correct : Time is the one thing a person can Never get back. So that being said, let's try to enjoy the outdoors as much as possible !! Take Care , Clark
Great to hear from you, Clark! I thank you for all of you kind words and support over the past year and I look forward to talking with you again soon, my friend! -Dave
Ok, I gave you a thumbs up, when you said you use ozark trail. Then I had to subscribe when you pulled out the harbor freight blanket. I use some ozark trail stuff and I have 3 of the same wool blankets from h/f. Pack and loadout is a little different from mine but not much. Dog"s", that cool! I also have 2 dogs with me most of the time.
Thank you for taking the time to watch, sub and leave your awesome comment, my friend! I have some excellent Ozark Trail gear and the HF wool blanket is one of my favorite pieces of kit that I don't like leaving home without! Nothing like spending most of our time with our dogs! -Dave
Great video Dave!
I have two of those Harbor Freight wool blankets, excellent bang for your buck.
Council Tool axes are the best.l! I have a Hudson Bay and one of the little red painted hatchets.
Keep those videos coming and GO BILLS!
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your nice comment, Rick! I appreciate the kind words, my friend! I couldn't agree more, brother! GO BILLS, indeed! -Dave
Very good ideas. Thank you very much
Great video Dave! I am looking forward to the Bark River review and I was hoping you could do a video on tarp/shelter setups.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very nice comment, Tony! I will definitely try to make videos on each topic as soon as I can, my friend! -Dave
Good to see you Dave. Thank you for taking the time to make a nice gear dump video. I like the AKC blade, very useful design. You should do a video of you and your dogs sometime. Have a great fall season.
Nice to hear from you, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! The AKC Forest knives are great and I enjoy the design very much! I will definitely try to make a video with the dogs and you have a great fall season, too! -Dave
Another great video my friend! Love my condor gear. Really like that dog bottle. Thanks for the video
Thank you for the kind words, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! Condor Outdoor gear has always been great for me and the Gulpy dog bottle has been life changing for our hikes! -Dave
Love your canteen setup
Thank you, my friend! After years of numerous canteen kit setups, I finally put together this one that works really well. Thank you for taking the time to stop by! -Dave
Like the Bob Ross of bushcrafting.
Hahaha! Thank you for watching, my friend! -Dave
@@HighCarbonSteelLove no worries, buddy! Keep up the great work and happy New Year!
Dave, this was an absolutely excellent video! When you took the American Knife Company knife out I just was in awe what a beautiful tool. I very much like how you use reasonably priced gear also so many people spend so much when at times they don't have to. Your advice is very valuable when it comes to this. Again just absolutely great video.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very kind, encouraging comment, my fiend! The AKC Forest knife has been excellent and it's very aesthetically pleasing! I am a huge believer in gear not having to be expensive to be dependable. Great to hear from you, brother! -Dave
I’m glad to see a new vid! Thanks for sharing!
I am glad that you took the time to stop by and leave your nice comment, my friend! It's great to hear from you and I hope to talk with you again soon! -Dave
Very well thought out my young friend!! But then I expect nothing less than excellent advice from you. God bless!
All my best from the Arizona desert!
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! It's great to hear from you, Charles, and I hope everything is going well in the desert! -Dave
Love the Autumn Dave ! an excellent portrayal of a great selection of equipment. The featured knife reminds me of the Skookum bush knife. Thanks for sharing my friend. All the best from Scotland. Garry
Great to hear from you, Garry! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and leave your awesome comment, my friend! Yes, the AKC Forest is designed directly in line with the Skookum with some slight differences. All the best to you, too! -Dave
Hell I just want to say I really appreciate the full reviews of the items thank you.
I really appreciate you taking the time to stop by, my friend! I really appreciate the kind words! -Dave
Grt video. Always enjoy & learn from ur videos
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Robert! I am glad I could be of some assistance, my friend! -Dave
Much love, and very good video. Keep up your good work
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very nice encouraging comment, Jason! I really appreciate that, my friend! -Dave
Great load out Dave! I love that little axe nice packable size and great for crafting. That knife was nice too. I just bought and tested the trangia 27-3. I cant believe I stayed away from these stoves for so long. Man they are awesome. Thanks for sharing your fall kit with us my friend. Have a great week
Mark
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! Great to hear from you! Your canoeing/trangia lunch video was great and I love the trangia burner, as well! You have a great week, too! -Dave
Hello my outdoors friend, this was an awesome video, thank you for sharing. This was a great gear loadout. I am intrigued by the LA Police tactical pack, plenty of room for all the essentials. Be safe out there and have fun. 🤗
Nice to hear from you, Ronald! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and leave your very nice comment! You would love this LAPG Atlas pack! You are exactly right...plenty of room for all essentials. You be safe too, my friend, and I hope to talk with you again soon! -Dave
Very interesting for sure I find my pak always changing whats in it LOL
My friend! It's great to hear from you! Yes, I have a few different packs and the contents do change quite a bit. I hope everything is going well for you and your family in beautiful Vermont! -Dave
wow nice setup, I would forget what I had, didn't see any tp, lol like your videos.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your nice comment, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! -Dave
Thanks a lot. Interesting and informative. I also wanted to see the foods you bring with you for the bushcraft hiking. BTW the season has finally come to me that I can start to use the full set of GI sleeping bag I bought earlier this year. I watched your another video and bought it. From an outdoor fan in Japan.
I bought mine for a winter trip last year and I love it. I'm in the states (Tennessee) so it's not too cold. Slept on a tarp on the ground and was fine. You can just use the outer shell for warmer months. It's very versatile.
Thank you for watching and leaving your awesome comment, my friend! I don't bring a huge variety of food into the woods, as I don't eat a lot when I'm out there. Usually a rotation of Raman noodles, Knorr rice sides and eggs to scramble in one for or another. Was it the MMSS system that you purchased? I think you are going to love it! Keep me posted and I hope every is well in Japan for you! -Dave
That sounds great, James! Thank you for taking the time to stop by and share your experience, my friend! Is it the MMSS that you purchased? I couldn't agree more about its versatility! -Dave
Yes, MMSS that's the one I bought. Had a fine day today so I dried it in the sun for preparation. : )
I notice that you did, not have food included was it just for this video also I would add at least 2 3 ply 55-60 gal drum liners for a debris mattress to help against body heat loss thrue the ground it would help a lot without a lot of weight and room taken up ( lays flat ) and are easily filled with leaves and pine needles but it is a very good setup also what about compass I seen that you did not show one or was it in the possibles pouch?
Very well thought out setup. I know you do mostly gear reviews but would love to see this gear in an overnighter?
Thank you for the kind words, my friend! I will definitely try to get out for another overnighter soon! -Dave
If you show me the gear you use I know it's some of the best available. The weather just cooled off for us so now I can think about camping again. Thanks again Dave, always a pleasure.
My friend, great to hear from you! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and leave your awesome comment! Happy camping in the cooler weather and I hope to talk with you again soon, brother! -Dave
Like always very good info and very helpful. Good see u, take care bud.
Great to hear from you, Victor! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very nice comment, my friend! You take care, too! -Dave
Very practical, love that

Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your nice comment, my friend! -Dave
Thank you for the video and I was just thinking about buying that same wool blanket
Thank you for watching, my friend! I think you would love this wool blanket and the price is excellent from Harbor Freight! -Dave
I think you have all the bases covered my friend. I did buy that Harbor freight blanket after you recommended it on another video but I haven't had a chance to try it out. It looks to
Sorry. It looks to be a great piece of kit. Have a great day my friend. I enjoyed watching, thanks.Tennessee
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Jeff! You are going to love that wool blanket! I find that it softens up over time, as mine essentially lives outside and in the garage. Great piece of gear. Let me know what you think of it, my friend! -Dave
You have a great day, too, my friend and it's always great to hear from you, brother! -Dave
I m glad to see that you do not have a pnömatic drill in it, oh thank God!
Always great seeing your new content Dave!!! Great choices on the gear! Cheers brother!
Thank you, Tim! It's great to hear from you, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and I hope the drumming is going well, brother! -Dave
Great bit of kit Dave
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your nice comment, my friend! It's always great to hear from you! -Dave
@@HighCarbonSteelLove i am on yoyr fb page also my friend
Not sure how I missed this video but as always I really like it!!!!! Great job Dave!
Nice load out Dave! I've gotta to get one of those water bottles for the hound. Very cool! I'm a huge fan of council tools axes too. That 14 inch velvicut is sweet! Take care brother Atb Sean
Thank you for the kind words, my friend! Yes, Goldens love the Gulpy water bottles...haha! You just cannot go wrong with Council Tool...my absolute favorite and your CT sounds excellent! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by, Sean! -Dave
Great video. Very informative. But..lol...the biggest thought in my brain was...
Dang. He sure is polite!!! Would like to see your channel grow.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very nice comment, my friend! I really appreciate the kind words and please don't be a stranger! -Dave
Nice kit,I like it.
Thank you for watching, Capt'n! I appreciate you taking the time to leave your awesome comment, my friend! -Dave
How many cooksets and fire stuff do you need. To much unnecessary weight. And where's your food at?
Very good, thank you very much
Nice loadout my friend and nice to see you back! Take care, Wade
Great to hear from you, Wade! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! It's great to be back! -Dave
Another excellent video my friend,i look forward to seing the Bark river knife review.Great set up I'm getting the Hultafors trekkers axe,it's very difficult to find real wool blankets but they last for years.Did you ever try the Kelly Kettle I highly recommend it.Stay safe.👍
Nice kit. I like that pack but ive been told i have too many and cant get any more haha them HF blankets are nice.
Great to hear from you! Thank you for the kind words my friend! I know the feeling of being told you have too many packs...haha! The HF wool blanket is one of my absolute pieces of gear, especially when the weather changes! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by!
Great video thank you
Great setup that allow you to modify it content according to needs. Very informative 👍👌👊✌️
You are exactly right, Laurent! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, my friend! It's always great to hear from you and I hope everything is going well! -Dave
Nice vid! Cant wait to see knife review. Is there anything in your load out that you say anyone would like enjoy appreciate ?
Thank you for the kind, encouraging words, my friend! I would say that anyone would like and enjoy the Harbor Freight wool blanket! Excellent, affordable and very versatile! -Dave
Excellent video Dave. I seeing all these gear for cold season. You always have the most thorough and detailed information about gear that people should follow. Thanks for sharing this video Dave and I look forward to the next. Cheers and greeting from Hong Kong. - joel
Great to hear from you, Joel! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your kind words, my friend! I look forward to talking with you again soon, brother! -Dave
@@HighCarbonSteelLove Looking forward to the next video brother
Really enjoy your videos. Thanks so much for the great information and insight! (also a native of Rochester)
I really enjoy you taking the time to stop by, David! It's great to have a fellow Western New Yorker here and I hope to talk with you again soon, my friend! -Dave
Great to see another video from you Dave! Awesome kit as always. Thanks for the reminder about the Bushcraft Outfitters 10x10. I have an aqua quest 7x10 for my rectangle tarp and have been looking into getting a larger square tarp to increase the options it provides for tarp shelter configurations and this reminder is gonna save me a great deal of $$$ with this option. Can you give me a rough estimate on its size when packed into the stuff sack?
Always appreciate and enjoy your vids Dave! Enjoy the fall while it’s here!!
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your very nice, encouraging comment, my friend! I've heard great things about the aqua quest tarps! 10x10 seems to offer me a lot of setup options. The tarp stuffs really well into a generous stuff sack and packs beautifully. I'd say when the tarp is in the sack it's about 11x8" and 3-4" thick. Hope this helps and you enjoy the fall, as well! -Dave
HighCarbonSteel Love thank you!! Enjoy the holiday season my friend!
I just watched your video and enjoyed it. But did I miss seeing a first aid kit?
Dave gets a 👍 for this video, great load out. Enjoyed video as always.
Thank you for the very kind words and thumbs up, my friend! Enjoy having you here, as always! -Dave
Hey Dave! Hope you're doing fine my friend. Thank you for an other excellent video. I can't wait to see your review on the knife. Take care, Irène.
Hi Irene! So nice to hear from you, my friend and I hope you and your family are doing well! I appreciate the very kind, encouraging comment and I will definitely be reviewing the AKC Forest soon! -Dave

Awesome pack✌️
Great video....how do you clean the wool blanket from harbor freight, im gonna be getting one soon. Thank you
You have to be careful at HF. They do have a petrchemical smell. I go through all the stock they have and pick the one with the least amount of smell. I wash them on gentle cycle and dry on low heat. Expect to clean your filter every 4 minutes...yes four minutes. Then I hang it outside in a nice sunny low humidity day. The smell will go away but it may take several of the above times to get it to your expectations. Trying anti odor additives to the washer won't hurt, either. Sometimes they can be itchy. Sometimes not. The more it is washed the less itchy and softer it will become. Seems like a lot of work but it is very warm and I love them for $12. If you have sensitivities to smells/itch I would not buy it. If not, it's a great blanket for the price. What can you buy for $12????
W ALKERONE thank you very much that was very helpful 👍🏼
Thank you for the kind words, Mike! Truthfully, after all these years, I have never really "washed" the HF wool blanket. I just hang it outside in a rain storm and then keep it outside to dry naturally, as I do with all my wool. As stated in the comment below, it did have a slight smell to it, however, this blanket lives outdoors and after about a week of being in the weather, it was no longer noticeable. Thank you for taking the time to stop by, my friend and let me know what you think of it! -Dave
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome info! For me, this blanket has lived either outdoors or in the garage so the smells and itch have never been a problem, however, it may bother someone who is sensitive to such things! And like you said, for $10-$12, definitely worth checking out! -Dave
Really enjoyed your vid
Thank you, my friend! I really enjoy the fact that you took the time to watch and leave your nice comment! -Dave
It's amazing that LAPG can make such awesome equipment and sell if for as cheap as they do and keep the quality high. I was going to get the tactical chest rig to hold extra ammo and meds on top of my plate carrier to go with the Atlas 72, but I decided it looked too much like a saggy man boobs bra, lol. I noticed that you do something I also do, make extensive use of compression sacks inside the ruck to save space and pack more gear in there ( they call it a 72 hour bag. By strapping 2 MOLLE pouches together and putting a set or more inside compression sacks in the ruck, making use of the tons of MOLLE on the outside of the bag [I also Ranger fold my extra clothing], my pistol belt, and my tac vest/plate carrier, you can live for a week or more with that backpack. You just have to know what to pack and how, knowledge of wood craft/bush craft/wilderness skills, how to hunt, track, fish, and shoot. I may pack heavy, but I pack useful stuff. What kind of headlamp is that, what batteries does it use, how many lumens, and what's the run time? When I heard you say under $20 I thought "huh? Mine was more than 3 times more". My camp saw is cheaper, tho. It's an Ultimate Survival Technologies Field Saw 7.0. Your saw looks nicer, mine is just like a 7 inch folding knife with an orange and gray rubber and plastic handle with a black oxide coated blade, like a big, lock-blade knife. It was $20 in the Cheaper Than Dirt catalog. I've had it for years and it's always been good, but yours seems to be a higher quality saw. I also carry a commando wire saw. Not a cheapo $2 one that lasts for a couple of saplings and snaps, but a $9 like the military uses ( it can also be used as a wire snare for rabbits and the like, as well as a garrotte if need be). You also carry way more in the way of stoves and the like, and there is no such thing as too much para cord IMO. To each his own, we have different ways of packing and stuff we bring, and we're both obviously capable of survival in the wilderness. Even tho we may go about it differently and with different gear, we both have the valuable skills to survive. That's an important skill set and it seems to be a dying art among young people today. Be safe in those woods and pack what works for you. All the best ~ Cthulhu 669
Hey my friend! Awesome video and load out!
Stay blessed
Hey my friend! Nice to hear from you! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment! -Dave
Nice video. Can you explain the purpose of the “red strobe” setting on your headlamp please?
P.S in your opinion what’s better, the Velvicut axes or the Gransfors Bruk axes?
Truthfully, I have no idea what the red strobe is for, as I have never used it for anything..haha! I have never used a GB axe but I can say that Council Tool axes are about all I ever use and I love them! Thank you for taking the time to stop by, my friend! -Dave
Thanks Dave
Thank you for taking the time to stop by, Robert! Nice to hear from you, my friend! -Dave
Buen video, gracias por mostrar..Tienes un equipo muy bueno, el hacha preciosa y el cuchillo espectacular pero preferiría un mango sin pulir para un mejor grip..creo que te falta una pequeña navaja (victorinox farmer, army7 o cualquiera con sierra) y otro cuchillo de bajo peso tipo Mora basic 511 carbono (si es que no llevas ya algo mejor)..Saludos Dave..
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Jaume! The handle is polished but the grip isn't too bad, due to how the handle is contoured. This was just the knife I brought on this day trip as I have many that I rotate. I don't mind the Mora 511 but prefer the old Mora 510. -Dave
What. Do. You. Do when you. Run. Out. Of. Water. Need. More. Then. What. You. Have. There
Im planing on getting a LTWK G.N.S for hiking and multi day woodcraft trips and I am stuck wondering if I should get it in CPM-3V of O1 because I have experience with neither of the two steels and was wondering how long O1 can hold an edge. And if anyone has experience with both steels, how big of a difference in edge retention is there in CPM-3V VS O1? Thanks!
They are both excellent steels, IMHO! I find the edge retention in both to be outstanding but off the top of my head, I have touched up my 01 knives a bit more than my CPM-3V. I don't have a problem in touching up either one of them. You won't have to look after the CPM-3V as much. The 01 steel will require a bit more care and maintenance. I don't think you could go wrong with either, but I would say that if you can afford the CPM-3V GNS, go for it. Keep me posted, my friend! -Dave
When comes a new video??? How long a can wait Dave?:)
I just uploaded about a week ago and a new video coming soon, my friend! -Dave
So when can we expect a new video. Looked every where to contact you. Does not seem to be a way to send you a comment. So I tried this way. Been about 9 months. Hope everything is OK!
Sorry about that, Lee. I uploaded last week and there is a new video coming soon! Everything is good and I appreciate you asking, my friend! -Dave
