found a couple of real nice pure wool sweaters at the local goodwill for 4.00 each as well as a wool blanket. don't dismiss your local thrift stores for preps, never know what they are going to show up with, found a nice nice down coat for 8.00 and got it half off for 4.00. just have to pick and choose. found camping supplies as well as stainless steel water bottles (none large mouthed unfortunately) for next to nothing

I myself watching all these KZitem folks trying to get their point across I've learned more from you then any of the others sir I have great respect and appreciation for the way you take the time to try to help those better themselves when they're out and about and whatever their situation maybe. I make sure I take good notes so I can remember the items like that beeswax Murray's beeswax that $2 from Dollar General Store from 8 years ago would never know that something like that could be so helpful. so again much respect to you and what you do. and I hope you get these comments.

Great video as always, Dave - thanks! Dead on about the 'wool' blankets - far too many are advertised as wool, but don't say they are blended with something else even though just about all of them are. Agree with you - cost of a 100% thick wool blanket is worth more than it's weight in gold.

Hey Dave, I have several of Cj's Blankets, and a matchcoat. Tony Baker of Baker's Bundles is making blankets that are WONDERFUL. I am looking at getting one from him. The wool is thicker and heavier. I love Cj and Ed's stuff, but since she isn't making them I am putting mine up for home use and looking at other options. Also I know you are THE MAN (think Chuck Norris of survival) But i have made lots and lots and lots of char in an altoid tin with out poking a hole saves from making a hole.

To go with them I have cotton balls with petroleum jelly, paper (Which I use for wads for my rifle), char cloth, steel wool, a small bag of saw dust, and a pouch of dried moss I collected in October during my deer hunt.

For me, 3.87lbs is all I need with my ESEE-6 Knife, SA Wetterlings Fine Forester Ax, Leatherman Surge Multitool and my Bahco Laplander Saw + a Lansky Puck, Lansky Oil, Mini DMT Diamond Block and a small Mill Bastard File. If a man can't carry 3.87lbs of tools that will save hours of work and calories, they probably aren't carrying a set of cojones either. I'd damn near build a log cabin with that stuff and "smooth it".

As a boy out hunting with Dad we used WW2 surplus wool sweaters, sox,pants from l l bean with suspenders I still have, watch cap, gloves , mintton liners with trigger finger and Doe skin canvas minttons like yours but with trigger finger. We'd get soaked in Duck season and he explained how the wool work's even wet! He was an M.I.T. educated aerospace engineer and a journyman tool maker at 19 so he understood thermeldinamics and the rest of the physics but only carried a compass, notebook , hachet, 3 knifes he made titanium thurmous with cup half the outer diameter that mated and miners headlamp with reds lense cover that used karosene. Coffee, pound of butter to mix in it and foul weather gear that was I think greased canvas, he said it would heat and better repel wetness as the grease got thinner always with a good. He's make everything we needed soon arrival of our camp and then make a blind. If your chest waders were put on the rule was a tethered pocket knife was tied to your pants belt so if you fell overboard and the waders filled with water you cut the straps and liked them off or they would bring you down like a rock. His attitude was a tool was to make tool's and prioritized the ones he carried. Always 100% wool!!! And I think i an find a lady from my church that with the alpaca or Australian Virgin wool make blankets like yours and trade skill sets for the blankets? Can't find Anything old and the same quality as WW2 gear in army Navy store's. The same man owns all 23 in my state. Just sayin. Happy I found you your right with the flow and materials and I'm glad.

Daev thank you. I love your channel and have become a youtube junkie watching your videos. A word on "common man" axes, if I may? Council Tool Hudson's bay axe. At about 25 bucks it's about the best "real" axe I have found. The handle finish was a bit rough to me out of the box, so I refinished it with pumice linseed n turtlewax. The blade needed a bit of tuning, also. but, for $25 it's a very solid tool from a great old US company. would love to see it reviewed someday...

hey dave, thanks for the great vid. i do various types of wireless installations, and i can tell you that it is possible to set up a point to point wireless link over the distance you mention. depending on what kind of obstructions there are ( trees? ) ; stick with a b/g 2.4 ghz ( encrypted! ) link, you can use directional antennas to get a stable point-to-point link to your home. Yagi antennas, or panel antennas are good choices. high power devices like ubiquiti's bullet2hp work well.
