I agree completely! Bushcraft has become more about gear , a Multimillion Dollar industry. Seems people are more into product reviews and money vs actual Bushcraft. Ive seen videos of Dick Prenneki and Mors Kohanski using similar saws .
Bow saws and buck saws are better on your wrists, too. Definitely more ergonomic. I love my silky for like an edc or something light, but for bushcrafting where I'm going to be building or working with lumbar, I'd definitely want to go either something more ergonomic and requires less energy to use.
Good points. If you put a woodsman from a hundred years ago, or a frontiersman from 200 years ago in a Walmart or cabela's, they would be floored. Any of that equipment is better/more consistent, more effective, and more useful than most everything they had access to. Sure, you can buy a $100 bushcraft knife with fancy steel that holds it's edge but is hard to sharpen, or you can spend $40 on a knife and $30 on a sharpener and be better off!
THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
