Rathwulven Bushcraft is a channel for woods(wo)men, bushcrafters and those wishing to learn about self-reliance while at the same time being in harmony with mother nature.
My goal is to offer free content and to exchange some ideas on bushcraft according to my credo: Nature first - Bushcraft second.

I grow my plantain organically. I have two kinds. Narrow leaf) the one in this video) and the broadleaf plantain, Bigger leaves. I harvest them and dry them for tea.
The important thing about sharpening convex on a stone is that the apex is all you're actually sharpening. Unless you're sharpening a Scandi and you're being very diligent about keeping your blade flat on a stone, all freehand edges are convex to some degree because nobody is perfect at holding a steady angle. You just need to know the apex angle of the convex and then sharpen on a stone the same as you would any other edge.
The hooks you mention at 2:07 were used for hooking on, among others things, the swiss army flashlight, which is a rectangular box , with three colored lenses. You could make a whole video just on the flashlight.
This jacket is not good at all against the rain. It’s absolutely not waterproof (it doesn’t claim either that it’s waterproof) it’s water repellent and not so good at it either. Even after one hour in moderate rain it gets really wet from inside. Basically you get what you pay for. Should show jacket from inside how “dry” it is. Video is misleading. People should check other videos where jackets from RR are tested in rain and how wet they get from inside.
Hello. I was looking at a video of someone bragging about the comfrey plant. So I looked it up as I didn't know about it and found you talking about it. I was impressed by how much you know about plants. I'm so sorry about your accident but I pray that you are making a lot more progress. Keep safe.
This plant is everywhere and covers the ground uniformly as a monoculture. Everyone who's been outdoors knows what it is. It tastes like carrot. It think it is in the carrot family. There is another weed that grows even better. I don't know what its name is but we call it Director's Flower. It is a tropical looking plant with a liquid filled stem and normal round leaves with mixed green and red colors. It grows into dense fields about 1.5 meters tall and retains water during hot summer. You can take one stem to your enemy's garden and it will grow roots and spread.
It is best to consult a chemist in this regard if you really want a clear answer regarding the impact. But a single application on the skin certainly won’t cause immediate organ failure. 🙂
As a skier who already owns many jackets , I just ordered this jacket because of the color. The wind and water proofness matters of course, however as a hard shell I will always have a mid layer and a base layer. If this is not very waterproof as reveiws seem to say I will leave this home that day and wear one of my others. We will see.
I use a huntsman and put a helix tender in the corkscrew and change out the toothpick with a Tortoise Gear fero rod as an emergency fire kit. Love the saw on it.
I've recently discovered Opinel and have become a believer! I have in carbon a no 10 and then stainless a no 10 (with corkscrew and bottle opener) a no 8 with spoon and fork attachments, a regular no 8 and then a no 5 that I carry all the time just to cut packages open, cut loose strings on clothes and things like that. I'm looking forward to getting the carbon 10, stainless 8 and the 8 with spoon and fork out into the field as soon as the weather turns nicer and I can go camping. Can't wait to try to light a fire with them! Thank you for the video. Cheers!
Because the tomahawk handle is easily removable, the handle (if BROKEN) can be removed much easier than a regular hatchet or axe handle, which is permanently mounted. As you demonstrtaed, the head of the tomahawk can be used to shape wood and/or fashion a makeshift handle3 in the woods. Good video. Thanks.
