    Don't get me wrong I love gear, I love pouches. But I stuff smaller pieces into socks. I bring an extra pair of socks and put gear in each and stuff them into my pack. After all you are going to bring a extra pair of socks anyway so it saves weight, space and money. I put the gear in one until it about half full or less and give the sock a twist to lock it and pull the top back over itself to seal it.

    It’s kinda crazy that I’m even saying this but I’ve been kinda falling out of love with gear in general. Haha 🤣 I’ve found the things I really love and have just been looking at all the rest of my stuff and it looks like a big dollar sign. I’m about to sell everything. I do still love my canvas tho! Also the canvas sleeve Jason makes for the bucksaw might fit that rod! Awesome video man! Bless you bro 🙏🏽🔥

    Frost River makes a nice canvas fishing pole sleeve for up to 24” pole pieces. I have used it will a 5 pc. Diawa Rod. Currently using a Eagle Claw “Pack It” 7’6” Fly/Spin setup...I also have several Grail filters (Their Awesome), I’ve started to use them similar to a water blatter when hiking with a Hardside Hydration Swig Rig...

    I am a bit of a gear fiend. Video is Awesome. You are doing an excellent job. Use what works for you, what you like, what you can afford!!! Among numerous other things I have a Large Alice Pack from Forestry Suppliers which is made by Rothco. It looks almost identical to my Alice Pack I was gifted by my Uncle, late Vietnam era. Happy to have both but I get endless crap about new Alice because it's made by Rothco. Works great and no issues. Best To You Always. Keep Them Coming!!!

    A folding bucksaw pouch might work for the fishing rod. Those flexible gear ties might be better than rubber bands.

    "NOT EVERYTHING IS A SURVIVAL SITUATION!" is the perfect comment. If you learn to survive with your regular kit you'll always be okay. There is a comfort in high stress situations in having tried and tested kit that is familiar to you. My personal take on the Grayl Titanium is that for £200 (about $270) I can buy another standard Grayl, a Pathfinder nesting cup and 2 replacement filters because I know if anything happens to my Grayl Outer my filter system is u/s. Excellent video buddy. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

    Most of my recent purchases have been replacements for worn out or lost gear, often the same as the previous items with one or two minor exceptions. I've stuck with my brand of water filter bottle because they are made locally and they have never let me down. The only change I'd make to your kit is I'd put some brightly coloured lanyards on the camo and OD green pouches because those things can just disappear in the dark. Yes, I learned this the hard way!!!

    Out of all the bushcraft and survival gear bag videos I've seen over the years, this is one of my favorites. It's all so slim and organized, but not too light either. That bag is still so small and light, that you can comfortably attach a blanket and frying pan to the exterior of the bag, and have room for snacks.

    I bought my dad a knockoff water filter like yours, it works great for personal use for hiking. We use our filters at deer camp for 5 gallons at a time, it does not work for our application even though it works efficiently. You're 100% right on having things and gear that works for your application.

    I just ordered the Vertx 15 litre Long Walk pack. Usually when I head out to the woods on an afternoon woods romp I bring my canvas haversack. This pack seems like it would be a perfect back if I wanted to bring a little bit of extra gear while still being small and compact. Love your content. Keep up the good work.

    Campcraft outdoors makes a waxed canvas sleeve for folding saws. They make different sizes. Amazon has them about $18. Would work great for the travel rod depending on it’s length when broken down. I know they have a 16” one.

  • @TexasSlinger

    Prol any old discarded tent or poncho sleeve can house the fishing pole. I re used a tent pouch for a cumfy pillow. I just chuck my jacket in there and raise my head off the ground with my pack pillow If youre out of ideas then an old sock should do well. or get paint ground cloth and sew it into a more custom outfit

    The bushbaby hc is my favorite feather stick making knife. Ive tried quite a few other LT WRIGHT knives from my collection and i can make more and better feathersticks using the bushbaby. My all time favorite knife is the Lt Wright Genesis and it is what kicked off my collection to begin with. I fell in love with the genesis after watching the competition ALONE on the history channel and Larry Roberts was using it. Now i have around 23 different genesis in my collection. The bushbaby seems to work better for me though. Not sure why but it does. Anyway. Good video and i really enjoyed it.

    The Grayl filters and purifies much more than Sawyers. Sawyers are cheaper but do not do as much. Grayl has no competition. PFAS, heavy metals, viruses, etc.
    For the pouches: what’s the benefit over a Maxpedition pouch, or even just some Ziplocs for most things?

    Love my bush baby, and Genesis, and frontier lol, also my moras, my white river FC5, few no longer made hand forged blades, as well as well as a beloved swiss army knife etc... basically good edged tools are king in any outdoor craft. All have their purpose and comfort lvl for each individual IMHO. I also own many axes, hatchets and saws for various applications. Picking kit is a personal thing but overall the tool/tools u carry only need to cover needs for ur particular mission ie day, multi day (3+) through forever scenarios. Just my thoughts.

    I've been ignoring your channel for a couple of months now ever since my UA-cam algorithm first presented it to me. This is the first of your videos that I have watched and I've already gotten several good suggestions for things that I am considering trying out. I'm now a new subscriber.
    My Varusteleka Terava Jääkäripuukko 110 knife with a Boltaron thermoplastic sheath along with a package of Blade-Tech Tek-Lok knife sheath hardware is on its way from Finland to the United States as I type out this message. It will be paired up with a Varusteleka Terava Skrama 240 modern-day interpretation of a seax, which I purchased with the right-handed brown leather sheath. In the immediate future I plan to augment the 2 knives with a Silky Outback Gomboy saw for those instances where the Skrama 240 is going to require too great of an energy expenditure for the ultimate return in processed wood. Chopping is great but there are definitely times when a saw is the preferred choice in a wood processing tool.
    I'll definitely be watching more of your videos in the future.

      *I REALLY stopped watching the newer bushcraft UA-cam channels when multiple female so-called bushcrafters started appearing as choices to watch and ALL of the thumbnail images included them wearing skimpy upper body clothing where their breasts were exposed by a minimum of 50% to as much as 75%, and that NO true outdoorswoman would EVER consider wearing while performing the skillsets that the video was supposed to be highlighting.

    I like the Grayl filter kit you have and would like to aquire one and the pouches. Ive used the lightweight silnylon pouches and while lightweight they just dont hold up well to abrasion and wear out and get frayed holes easily. The rest im all good and have a small sleep pad as i dont believe in browse beds and there are no leaves in the forests i frequent.

    Back then, the price was less than a half days pay. The price of the "modern" filter seems to be about 1days pay or 1.5-2 days pay for titanium.

    I personally carry a saw with me for clearing a spot to chill ,shooting lanes, fishing spot and/or processing firewood [i use my saw constantly/its 1 of the most used tools I carry] !
    Check out the Sven saw ...if your not already familiar its a collapsible bow saw an its ROCKS ...Ive used a dozen or more different folding saws [at work and in the woods] and NONE are as good/ useful as the Sven !
    Its an actual REAL bow saw so it processes wood FAR better, faster an with less user fatigue than any folding saw EVER could ,it also come in a sizes from 15' to 21' !
    The 15' is in my EDC bag and the 21' goes into my camping pack but I also have 1 that rides in my truck tool box and another 1 that lays around in my shop because they are THAT good !
    Its a sort of crossover piece of gear yes its great for camping/hunting/hiking etc but its also good enough to use anywhere anytime !
    I'm a welder ,I do alot of pipe fence repair for farmers/ranchers an the Sven saw is what I use to clear any brush or BS that's in my way while working [again like I said they are THAT good] !
    Check em out [if you haven't already] an lemme know what you think !

    I love gear as much or more than the next person. I am planning on buying a 450$ knife real soon in fact. But. Make more of your own things. You’d be surprised what you can learn to make, make it, and appreciate gear that much more AND it will probably help you, dear reader, figure out what you are more willing to spend them dollars on.

    Why do you guys keep ignoring the fact that Grayl’s can clog faster than most filters. Our waters of America contains natural tannins that specifically state to avoid when using Grayl water system. Not all streams and creeks, rivers are clear not to mention lakes. So as a survival choice why would choose it when you cannot back flush and that you would have to carry multiple cartridges to sustain a viable source of water. Now don’t get me wrong it does its job. But the box illustration is down south in the part of the Americas where water is more clearer. Second it’s not a light carrying filter when a hand held pump system is light than that one. My Survival filter is equivalent to that large Geo Press and is down to a 0.1 micron where the Geo press is 1.4 microns. The strain filter does the rest. Mainly the carbon element does most of the work. Grayl does not list its micron level period!!!!! But because Oooooool DAVE CANTERBURY saids so you all comply. If the filter company said that TANINS will clog the filter you’re not going to get a lot of presses depending on the water source. Then there’s turbidity that which bandannas and smougs or (Palestinian scarfs) can’t filter out. Yes the lower micron filters can clog easily but they have a way to back flush or unclog their system where Grayl does not. In my opinion the Grayl system is designed for hikers not survival. You guys need to stop listening to other idiots claiming survival for a recreational filter. You are absolutely correct in choosing your own gear but the water system is the most critical out of any of that gear. Not all creeks, rivers, streams, lakes can be siphoned from or scooped up for drinking!!!!!!!!

      I personally have been using Grayls for years, I’ve never ran into any problems with them. It’s what I like and will continue to use because it works for me and my location. In my area you don’t even really need a filter, there are so many springs around that you can drink straight from.

      @@buckeyebushcraft I like your channel. But you guys need to illustrate that your water source can sustain a Grayl filter. There are so many people thinking that it will filter out anything. You mentioned that what you do is not for everyone, in which I applaud you for that…, not fussing either! But Dave Canterbury has everyone thinking that filter will out do all others and he seems to forget the instructions of that product. We as your subscribers needs to know what water source your using it in, because I had one and it clogged after four uses on lake water which to me was pretty clear. So I tried on a fresh creek same results. So I contacted the company and said that the water source (pretty much) has to kinda clear. Also people think it will filter harsh pollutants. None of these personal filters will do that. There are little kids who think they can do these things trying their version of bushcraft. You guys have to think about that stuff. But keep’em coming on the content. Will await for another.
