Video Transcription

you know my friends we are here in the late afternoon in the snow as you can see and we spend just a few moments together we have just a few minutes of daylight left the howl thing we will spend a few minutes together talking about my knife because I have some toasts that I like to share with you about the steel and about the knife making and some few other few things that I like to share with you so stay tuned

[Music]

never been here to camp about the beautiful place

I always like to find a when it's not raining or snowing I always like to find the open area [Music]

this is the knife this is the answer trapper 115 centimeters the blade is 115 minute millimeters made in hell max a steel I always preferred the carbon steel to dial max for many reasons first of all because I always told that keeps the edge a better than the stainless steel but I have to say that I have this since 2 years I guess and it it keeps the edge a really really well even if a standstill still is perfect and also in this environment full of dough and moist urine where I live we have many rains during the day or so my knife is always in the middle of the most this is a good option because it will rust a bit and this I have made myself the ender in a stabilized wood is a particular type of wood soaked in the glue and takes many different colors and also the this pins are in a stainless steel I don't want to have them in aluminum we have white liners but first of all I'd like to made myself for many reasons first of all because the the type that is the the Enzo proper make also a version [Music]

with the endl but I don't like it very much because the Ender is a two teen for me and you can grab it very well while I as I made it is really really really comfortable

you see much thicker here and the thinner here and here soken when you grab it in this position is a perfect also I have carved a place for my tongue here so is the middle just for me when I you receive the blade it's perfectly scandi or at least my was in scandi they all only also sell a flat grinding blade but I prefers candy but I have put a bit of convex edge a bit dropping it on the ladder and also to keep the edge a bit better I've found that this is a best option for me at least for me works better [Music]

I prefer the diversion with a longer bleed because most people like ninety five ninety ninety five centimeters millimeters of bleed but I prefer a bit a longer one because you can use it with bigger logs and you never know when you need to split a log a bit better than usual I know that they say that the bigger log you need is the biggest log need is this size for bushcraft but it's not always like that for me at least in cases when you want to split a bigger log or you have at your disposal a bigger log and you don't waste it just because your blade is too short for me also I always use the tip of my knife like this and never encounter the problem with the steel or with the tip for me it's not so important to make the perfect fantastic while you're really really important during winter to have a good pile of feathers nope let's start the fire I always make a good cross here put my feathers in the middle

and then I use a I use your stuff no need much of it just pieces now we use their that this vine with instead of using at the chocolate we will try to use exact directly the first look you can see a good pile of feathers always work really work really well in this in the fire making process it'll also make some other piece of chocolate given that I used Emma so much [Applause]

okay now we just wait and let's boil some water and make a good coffee

good tea sorry they said all the other times when I you are in the middle of the snow so it's better to keep all your stuff well inside your pockets or not leaving anything around let's say my now you use the snow to the source of water you have to press it very very well if you want to have a good amount of water there it's going to lose much volume in the process

beautiful colors of the sunset the usual plane that makes my company when I shoot the video never find the occasion to shoot the video without my friend plane which is more clear coming out from anyway this this knife is a really good option especially if you like to do it the end of yourself I will put the link to the the store in the description of the video and as I said is a good option because you can find a good blade like this in Lmax at a fair price to have a max steel blade from other other brand of knives you have to spend much money like mark river made it and it's a good blade oh but it's really expensive also as I said if you make the end of yourself you can have a very comfortable one because I made it for my end so it's perfect perfect fit for me he's very dependable this knife ever had the problem of chipping or of blending of the blade and I have to sharpen it just once in a in a month not not more fish very sharp razor sharp I don't like to waste too much wood I like to use all the wood that I collect I don't like to to live some wood to waste some would eventually at my fire camps I like I'd like to live some piece of wood big logs stuck stuck there because I used them during the winter but when I stopped by along the path I don't like to use too much wood I like a small fire that to warm myself or dry my my shoes

and that's all that's all I need and I don't mind a bit of smoke because if you make a good a big fire sorry if you make a big fire you have a good heat inside the core of the fire so you can put and you can put anything you want inside it and it will dry up very very fast with less smoke because of the heat the heat will dry up very fast the wood and it will burn easier easier but as I said I don't like to make big fires just to stop by for a few minutes [Applause]

here's my friends what the pleasure in the afternoon the late afternoon I like very much to have a tea next to the small fire especially in in winter when you have all the snow around is really a beautiful habit for me is a moment to of peace with myself the moment to regain the energy for the next day at work Oh
