Mike, you're a legend. I've been going through your back catalogue and learning so much. I've loved watching them, and those projects with your dad are a real treat. Do you think your dad will adopt me? 😂 He is an extraordinary chap. Thanks for all of your efforts.
the corkscrew is one of the most used tools on my EDC SAK. It's great for picking apart tricky knots, getting O-Rings off and on things that require them and it can carry a small bundle of waxed tinder. and ofc opening wine
LOVE THIS! My little guy and I like to watch your videos during the day and to go to sleep (I also love that I don't have to worry about the content being appropriate for him and he loves it!) We've been hoping for a large survival tip video for so long! THANKYOU!
Been watching your videos for a while now... Honestly, if you were to be selected to take part in the Alone show as a contestant, you'd have a high chance of success! Keep it up!
Really enjoy your videos... I've went back and watched your videos from the first one learned a lot of useful things.. really enjoy you get to spend time with your dad and jacks doing what you enjoy...thank you for your time and knowledge it's worth more then money to me
I remember watching the video when you showed the pine root as cordage ages ago. This video is literally everything I have learned in my youtube journey thank you for all the time you put into them
Some great points in this video, thanks Mike. I use the air bladders from bladder wrack as seaweed whistles by cutting a small amount off one end and then blowing across, rather than into, the hole. This makes a surprisingly loud whistles, and it's great to teach people on foreshore forages. I love fried gutweed, but just as with jelly fungi, you have to be careful of the water exploding from the body, causing the hot oil to spit. I bury the tin after making charcloth/cones while they cool down, as the sudden intake of oxygen once off the heat, but with the tin and contents still being very hot, can cause the contents to ignite and ruin them. When carving a wooden spoon, be mindful of the direction of the grain in the wood. While carving the handle, you might find it easy to carve going on one direction on one side, but you'll find it digs in on the other. Just turn the wood and carry on. The narrower the blade, which you can see at the back of the blade opposite the sharp front, the easier it will go through wood. An Opinel No.8 locking knife is great for finer work with wood, such as carving, making tent pegs, the wood/bark whistle etc. It's a tool I use for the rough work in my own wood carvings, before moving down to more specialised knives. The Swiss Army Knife is great and I have several, ranging from a beast to a dinky keyring one, but the blades are quite wide and are therefore harder to get through wood. Many coniferous trees have an irritant that causes the skin to itch them handled. It affects me, although luckily the itching stops pretty quickly. I have very small 'paper' sheets of soap in a small plastic dispenser for if really needed, but also use the 99% water wet wipes, which are fragrance free.
Love the video. I used to eat limpets often on camping trips. Shell down on grill, fill the shell with soy sauce, dab of hot sauce, and cook till bubbling. Seems the smaller ones are much less chewy.
Outstanding information. It used to take an entire summer to teach all these outdoor basics to would-be hikers/campers. Now, I will just direct them to watch your video before coming to the mountains. Thank you! @TA Outdoors What would be the equivalent substitute for Hazel in the United States?
It's back. I have the same knife and loved the first episode, too. Thanks. Walnut scales are the best SAKs and the Evolution range handles really well. Have you tried an S557 Walnut? It is lockable and a bit bulky in a trouser pocket, but the tools are great - inline Phiilips!
15:41 you're using a saw, reminds me they're usually made with high carbon steel and can make a good spark with a hard rock, on another video i learnt nettles, dried for a day in warm sunlight will produce an ember with a high carbon steel spark. I've not tested that bit yet.
went to my local outdoor mart and found a Victorinox bushcraft knife it was pretty sick and i never knew it existed. just incase other people didnt know either. theyre also like $250+ USD 😭
Why haven't you used a file or a grinder at home to put more flat edges on to the tools of the knife that way you will always have a clean straight edge
TO HAVE A PERFECT TOOL FOR CARVING USE A OLD SPANNER AT HOME FILE THE INSIDE FLAT THEN SHARPEN THE OUTER RING WITH SHARP EDGE THEN BEND CUT TO LENGTH IF YOU WANT PUT SOME WOOD FOR A HANDLE AND SHAPE YOU WILL HAVE ONE BRILLIANT TOOL LAST FOR YEAR'S YOU CAN EVEN USE THE OPEN END OF THE SPANNER TO MAKE OTHER GOOD TOOLD THEN HEAT THEM UP NOT TO HOT BUT ENOUGH TO HARDEN THE TOOL YOU COULD MAKE A VIDEO FOR IT EVERY ONE HAS A OLD SPANNERS BEST OF LUCK
My opinion, a knife, in a bushcraft or survival situation is a tool, in certain cases multi purpose, but, it can make other tools that the knife itself is not well suited for. Keeps you from accidentally damaging the knife.
WELCOME TO THE TA OUTDOORS CINEMATIC UNIVERSE

Great Video, thanks
Keep up the great content!
Really love these videos, man
Yayyy mike saved Monday 👌👌😁👍👍 thank you for awesome long video
I’m definitely going to try a 28 hour survival challenge this year!💯🤙
you can use the corkscrew on a Swiss army knife to tap a maple tree👍
You reminded me to do some preventative maintenance on my gear thanks 😎👍
Have saved this one only have to research similar plants that grow here in Queensland Australia to use in the same way.
Another awesome video from an amazing outdoors channel!
Only 100, Totally Awesome Mike 😆👊🌟
Great video, thanks!

So much great info, thanks for putting this all together! Some chapters would be useful for quick reference.
Quality Mike, thanks.
This is great, now I just need to find someone who does similar videos for my neck of the woods
Love these videos
Thanks Mike. Plenty of info here 😀🙏
I am always waiting for your new video. Have fun
Christmas came early with full length feature film!
It's back. I have the same knife and loved the first episode, too. Thanks.
Walnut scales are the best SAKs and the Evolution range handles really well.

Thank you man
haha you said "fluff up" ... seriously though, *brilliant* vid!
great vlog
Very useful clip video 🎉🎉
Protip for compressed wipes - they make excellent charcloth when you are done with using them to wipe/clean.
Great video
You showed the paracord axe holster twice... Gotta get up pre-tty early to catch me out! :D
Took me a couple times to watch it all the way through. Kept falling asleep. I liked it, but your voice made me sleepy.
That's the reason I'm here. Helps me sleep
"The corkscrew is one of the most unused items on a swiss army knife" not if you're french
That boy good!
The s.o.s tip was cool. you can also do that with a flash light.
15:41 you're using a saw, reminds me they're usually made with high carbon steel and can make a good spark with a hard rock, on another video i learnt nettles, dried for a day in warm sunlight will produce an ember with a high carbon steel spark. I've not tested that bit yet.
Thanks.
awesome!
Can you use the cork screw as a tiny “log auger” ?
Question: Who makes the canteen cup stove. I have looked online everywhere. I cannot find one listed like it. Keep up the great job, long time viewer.
O where is this, Its so lovely lush and green
Use the corkscrew to help untie a tight knot.
Hi is this all of the shorter videos in a compilation?
If sap is blood, resin is snot, very flammable snot 👍🔥
EHLOW! One yay! Hope all well!
epic. or....brilliant!
Ist das victorinox evogrip s17 oder huntsman gut ? Welches ist deins ? Von taschenmesser.
3:24 what a nice backpack you have, where did you bought it?
He's got a video about it on his channel
the hook is for carrying parcels ties with twine. I like my vintage Wenger
27:20 Is that trap for catching elderly and disabled criters? What else could not get out of that?
cool
How do I know if the place I choose for camping wont get me in trouble for making a campfire?
check your country regulations
Foxglove is basically where digoxin comes from. But dosage is key
What watch are you wearing in the video at 58:25, if you know?
12.15 copper wire also works
When a knot is super tight, the cork screw will unwind it.
That screw can hold the fire ant flint and cotton all I use it for
I thought about buying a Swiss Army Rifle but I couldn’t lift it. The fuel tank for the flame thrower is too heavy.
went to my local outdoor mart and found a Victorinox bushcraft knife it was pretty sick and i never knew it existed. just incase other people didnt know either. theyre also like $250+ USD 😭
I have basically the same one just without the cork and file thingy
What is that field watch that he wearing?
Garmin
❤❤❤❤❤
where can I get the waxed sheet at 22:10?
does anyone think I should cook meals inside my tent with a solo stove lite
41:40 what axe is that please?
that's basically a slightly smaller version of the Huntsman model
Why haven't you used a file or a grinder at home to put more flat edges on to the tools of the knife that way
you will always have a clean straight edge
TO HAVE A PERFECT TOOL FOR CARVING USE A OLD SPANNER AT HOME FILE THE INSIDE FLAT THEN SHARPEN THE OUTER RING WITH SHARP EDGE THEN BEND CUT TO LENGTH IF YOU WANT PUT SOME WOOD FOR A HANDLE AND SHAPE YOU WILL HAVE ONE BRILLIANT TOOL LAST FOR YEAR'S YOU CAN EVEN USE THE OPEN END OF THE SPANNER TO MAKE OTHER GOOD TOOLD THEN HEAT THEM UP NOT TO HOT BUT ENOUGH TO HARDEN THE TOOL YOU COULD MAKE A VIDEO FOR IT EVERY ONE HAS A OLD SPANNERS BEST OF LUCK
1:29 why does everybody use some random tool or their knife to strike a pharaoh rod? There’s usually a striker attached to the pharaoh rod use that.
My opinion, a knife, in a bushcraft or survival situation is a tool, in certain cases multi purpose, but, it can make other tools that the knife itself is not well suited for. Keeps you from accidentally damaging the knife.
That three you cut might not be dead, exactly. The three can regrow below the cut.
👍
✔️❤️
corkscrew, used for patching tyres, boring a birch for tea,,.....
👍💪
11:04 created a bigger hole than you repaired
I ended up making one of those tinder pouches I still have it. I made it sheesh,,5 or so years ago.
