"If you do not know how to light fire with a fire steel ... do not go outdoors" I lost it. Great video Lonewolf.

Somehow he manages to get people excited about starting a bushcraft adventure. Simple and down to earth. It shows he knows what he is talking about.

This was my first time watching one of your videos and I just want to say that I do prefer your teaching style over many of your competitors/peers. Really low key and "approachable".

I am binge watching and enjoying your videos very much. I have “never” been camping a day in my life, but l do enjoy the process of it. I am living out my camping fantasies through your videos 🙂 thank you for taking us on your journeys.

I’m only 3 minutes in but this Nearly 47 minute video seems so full of information. Love it. Even just explaining the tarp, he explained everything you’d need to know and think about and why he did what he did. Love this

Wow! Thank you! Your video is refreshingly different than a typical "what's in my backpack" video. Very informative and very helpful.

I like how you stress the importance of having kit that is versatile and can do multiple jobs. That wok would be a useful helmet in a hailstorm :)

I always bring stormproof matches and a bic lighter when I go out. I have my flint abd my ferro rod of course but you always want backups.

I would recommend several cotton handkerchiefs. Cheep and many many uses like wrapping sewing kit, water filtration, use as a washcloth, use a dark colored one as an emergency butt wipe. and so many more uses. Of course also blowing of the nose.

Appreciate this video. You should start a bushcraft school your a great teacher in the art of bushcrafting. I always learn a lot from your video's. Thanks brother for taking the time to share your expertise with us.

At last! This is an informative video that does what it says on the tin, and NOT a shameless advertisement for 'sponsors'. Thank you and well done! Yes, I've subscribed.

Canvas and wool blanket = pay off between fire safe and weight.. Love the way you make your own stuff, use whats at hand and not just another sales person pretending to be a bush/wilderness trainer..

I've always been impressed with how perfectly proportionate your gear load is. As I've made the transition from, primarily "survivalist" to "bushcrafter", it's been harder than expected, but well worth not sleeping with the bugs. I always enjoy videos, where you break things down, I know it really helps me make informed decisions much easier. Thanks for the video, stay safe out there and God bless!

For a beginner I’d recommend only a few things to get Started as you don’t know wether you’ll like it or not. A knife, clipper or bic lighter, some cord and a cheap water proof tarp. (all can be found on Amazon but make sure you read the reviews obviously) Dw about mess tins and the like as you don’t want to spend to much on gear for the first night as watching a video of someone experienced and actually doing it urself are completely different so just bring ready to eat food with you. hope this helps. Watch the whole video tho obviously dude knows his stuff Edit. make sure you do ur first night in summer as-well you’ll enjoy it way more but pack a coat for the early morning as it can get quite nippy

Absolutely loved this video!! I’m a homeschool mom and each month we have a different theme for life skills. This month the theme is bushcraft and I LOVE the jute twine ideas!! My son is getting into more fire responsibility and he’s going to love this!! Also carrying a candle, definitely adding that to our packs.

The little pruning saws work well also. I love my Bahco Laplander. I also recommend a large silky saw. Safe firelighting pracice in the back yard is great fun.

I appreciate that you emphasize the functionality but also mention the aesthetics of the items you use.

No words. Awesome! 🙌🏼

Thank you thank you for your help, advice and consideration. Sometimes we need the simple advice to get started. I appreciate all your help.
