I made one today from a piece of still green maple that fell from one of my trees during a storm a few days ago. It turned out so well that I made 2 more. Thanks for the lesson!

Dan, this video reminded me of a trip into the BWCAW. My brother forgot the Spatula and I ended making one for the rest a week in the bush.

Thanks Dan. This comes in handy when in the woods and you forget your spatula. Did some old style trekking in Oktober at Witts End and I forgot my spatula. With my hawk and knife I made a spatula in camp. I do make spoons and spatulas at home, but well I forgot my spatula. Take care.

I have been subbed for some time now. I just came across these 5 year old videos. I think you should link to these videos more in your present videos. A ton of great info and tips. Looking forward to your next videos. Keep up the great work.

Dan, Good video. That certainly works for quick use in camp/field. Yep green wood works better. For more durable spatula you want to avoid the pith and reaction wood surrounding it. The growth rings are small diameter so are very reactive when the wood dries. Choose a larger diameter "log" and baton a radial split blank. Enjoy.

Heading out for a 6 day solo camp today. Can’t wait to try this and many of the other things you’ve taught me Dan. Btw, I totally get what you mean by enjoying bushcraft. Sure, I can take a lightweight plastic spatula with me. But making one while in camp and using it while I’m out there... I’ll be smiling the whole time.

Dan, I just have to say that the quality of your videos is so good that it almost looks fake - until you start interacting with it and prove it's real. Great camera work. BTW at about the 2:26 mark when you show the wood you picked to use, IMO the baton looks like an even nicer piece :-)

I’ve heard some bushcrafters say not to baton an axe/hatchet, saying it will slowly broaden the eye, causing the head to slip. I have zero experience with axes (only ever needed a knife and machete), but I’m moving to the Rockies soon, and plan on getting one. What is your take on that? Seems like you probably have a lot of hands on experience, and I trust someone who actually uses the tools, versus someone who just read something.

Use green wood (living) and try to stick with hardwoods. Softwood like basswood and tulip poplar absorb the liquids and end up rotting. At least in my experience
