Love your videos! But I don't think your hitch with a carabiner is universal: it doesn't work for my carabiner and 4mm utility cord. After I wrap my working end through a carabiner twice and pull on it, it slips from underneath the standing line. May be my carabiner is too slippery or so is my cord, but it doesn't work :(
Ive been fishing 30 years and tried every knott and this is the gods honest truth.... the strongest knot is the one you take your time on, tie neat and cleanly, and the one you lubricate and the one you feel comfortable with. The top 5 knots are all very strong it's about quality
I wish they would just teach, not indoctrinate, teach how to think things through, not learn through emotion. teach that raw emotion is a poor guide in decision making. Just because you feel x, y, or z about something doesn't make the other perspective wrong, and/or doesn't instantly make you right. Pausing and taking a beat, to process what to do or say next will save a world of head or heartaches. Cool tie through
This knot may seem helpful at first, but it cannot hold big weights, and any jerks in the knot can release it early. it looks nice! maybe can use for decoration
A really useful life skill is not over complicating a simple task like this knot does, the real backwoods world has already been decoded by us hillbillies with elementery level book learnin, colledge level complication of simple tasks will ruin the fun of the outdoors or cause more exposure deaths because the guy on yubtub overcomplexifacated a friggin leanto (thats a real word... dont look it up)
This is an interesting video, I used to own a GB Small forest Axe, the quality was good, but I changed it up to a SA Wetterlings Hunters axe which I still have to this day. I also own the SA Wetterlings Forest Axe which is similar to the GB Swedish Forest Axe but a better chopper. I am not surprised that the GB Splitting Axe chops quite well as many of the wedge profiled Finnish axes I have owned are pretty good chopping axes, though not concave ground but straight with a convexed edge. Also bear in mind axe efficiency varies according to the wood species that is being chopped. Thanks again, WS
This is REALLY AWESOME, but my brain would fry 🤯 trying to remember how to tie it (but then again I'm not a knot junkie). Thank you for posting it. Hey? Did you invent this sweet knot? 😎 👍
If it's night time spin around then stop! double take 3 times ,stomp on your right foot , don't forget it! then move your hips around , around town and unzip your zipper and it will point north
I always keep some birthday candles with me they're fairly cheap coming like a 20 to a pack and they're great to put around pieces of wood to start a fire if you don't have a lot of kindling or if it's been wet, also has a hike I will pick up a bird's nest I find on the way and I use that for the tinder to start a fire
