      Im 67, and i see people on here acting like experts and either giving out bad or obsolete info. Theres things they act like they thought of that me and my buds used 30 to 50+ yeats ago. This man here is straight-up. I was exempted from service but raised in a military family. I was taught all the older training, by my father and uncle (ww2), and newer training and tips from my cousin (Green Beret.) Yep. I fully agree on this fella. Straight to the point and always good info. Some i already knew, but he gives great tips and tricks that may matter a lot on what happens to you
      . Stay safe. Good travels.

    Your channel is easily one of the best of its kind on UA-cam. Great info and SUPER concise. Other youtubers would have taken over an hour to accomplish what you did in 8 minutes. You should teach classes into making youtube videos. The collective value of UA-cam would go up by a factor of 100,000 if other youtubers could be as concise as you.

    Damn good shit!
    I prefer to keep one larger hank. On the tag end I tie to my saw and chuck it over the branch I want to cut. I put a loop along the hank to larkshead onto the other end of my saw, and long enough so I'm not sawing underneath the branch.
    Limb falls, I'm not hurt, have material for structure and still one long hank of cord.
    P.S. don't cut limbs with bee hives. They'll swarm and attack, even if you just began cutting and didn't notice the hive.
    I already use my spoon. As I was watching I thought, "It's gonna get hot!" But then I saw you using a cloth... Peuw!
    A splash of water helps too.

    • @RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft

      Multiple spoons can be used as insulators combined with wire and sticks to prevent the wires from touching, when making certain field expedient antennas, and confine the flow of the current to project the strongest possible signal.

    Splitting a match is an oldie but goodie. If splitting a wooden match, it is best to start at the head of the match. The finer and sharper the blade the better. Starting at the tail risks "blowing" the striker head off the wood as it splits.

    A “like” as always. Question: do you think that the military MRE manufacturers actually intended for the spoon to be multi functional or was it an accidental byproduct? It seems sturdier than the run of the mill fast food plastic spoon which I am sure was intentional. All of your tips and tricks are highly valuable. As an aside, I attended an air show last weekend and some of your 75th Ranger Regiment boys from Benning (Moore) reenacted the D-Day invasion by jumping out of 2 C-47s in period correct paint schemes. Very impressive. You Airborne fellas have all the fun.
