Nessmuk's canoes compete with modern kevlar/carbon fibre ones weight wise. It does seem to be designed for animal processing. Slipjoint was the cooking and carving knife. The double-bladed axe was for wood and bone.

There does seem to be an odd thing in the canoe world, in that he is a big deal, however his canoes seem to be ignored. Anyone at the Wilderness Gathering, check out Fudge the boat builder as he is the closest I have seen for how they are described.

One of my overriding thoughts was that the show was very much survival with moments of Bushcraft. Does not Bushcraft always have an idea of moving into the wilderness and building a cabin in the woods? Combined with an idea of moving through the environment like Ötzi or similar. You are allowed...

I was kind of surprised by how many people did give up their knife. I also wonder what would Nessmuk change? I may have to do some research on what he used that double headed axe and those knives. I have always wondered why Leatherman does not offer a build your own or mod your multi-tool...

That is a reimagining of Mors' scarf. Greencraft makes a version of that. It's basically a big bag of parachute nylon which can be a scarf, debris mattress bag, sleeping bag etc.

Hope everything ok? Is EDC just a possibles pouch or bag? Scouts did it to me with 'Be Prepared' and I blame MacGyver for making it worse! :) Something that has always annoyed me is being asked for tablets by people who get headaches... I am feeling a little kinder as I did manage to go to the...

I have been looking at some of the Alone TV show stats and it raises some interesting questions: 1. Mental strength is very important and a skill that needs training and developing. 2. Decision making - (Maybe OODA) is another skill that needs training and developing. Resources are limited being...

Due to having met some of the people in this season of Alone, I have actually watched it. This caused some research, which led me to a thought: Is the new Nessmuk Trio - an axe, saw, and multi-tool?

I love my tech however my Motorola Razer will always have a special place in my heart. Basically, the flip phone used in tv and movies still. A 5g dumb phone which could be used as a hot spot would be a brilliant outdoor phone as you could then carry a tablet for all of the smart stuff.

JJ Outdoors and Rough Timber are worth checking out. I think a lot of them end up modded. The Baker tent style looks cool.

If I remember correctly, there is one place (in Scotland) that is not connected by road. I have heard 10 miles mentioned in that you never get further than that from civilization in the UK.

I am going to rip off Paul Messner's idea of having one lot of good pegs and using them for everything. I have had a few tent bags with a one way zip which is just insane. Getting a tent into its bag in the wild is down to lots of use and good weather. I tend to have a few heavyweight bin bags...
