Thank you!

Boy this video really hurt the feelings of two elderly gentlemen with 300lb spouses…

Nice selection. The machete looks like an Ontario (no longer in business, sold out last year to Blue Ridge knives). The Garberg is awesome & hard to beat for the cost. I have a few axe myself but rarely use them. As far as a big knife goes I like the LT Wright Shemanese. Also check out the Becker BK9 & Condor Tool & Knife has several big blades ! Thanks for sharing!

Algorithm

Make yourself a rod carrier from 4" pvc light wall pipe and 2 end caps. Mine fits my rod AND my micro tackle box for sunfish, perch, catfish. Reel goes in the ruck. So much better to carry it in a tube than any other way, never break an eye or a tip again.

I take a smaller machete and a hatchet.

I wouldn’t have shown that 🩸spoon “ Jesus. “ 😂😂😂

Now that's a philosophy I can get behind - bushcraft is more about skill and knowledge - rather than buyng tons of expensive gear just to have a grilled sausage =)

Most of the military machetes I've used were 1055 steel, easy to resharpen, but edge won't hold it long, had to touch up daily.

Bought it sold it 'bought it back' but don't know how much you paid for it..? 🤔

I'm in total agreement of use what you like, never mind what everyone else thinks, glad to see your video and looking forward to your next one 🤙🤙🤙

Thanks for Sharing. I prefer an Axe/Hatchet because of their durability. So, I carry an Axe/Hatchet, Large Knife, Carving Knife, and Saw. Stay Safe

Not trying to be a hater, really, but the thumbnail says overnight with a pocket survival kit, but then you bring out a small backpack...I get the camera equipment, but water, food and a bandanna? Kind of deceptive.

Hey im from Norway and in i usually carry the same type off system, in the summer i carry a machete (condor bushcraft parang)/ Belt knife (Mora Woodcarving Basic)/ multitool (swiss army farmer x) and in the winter i might change the machete with an axe and ill throw a Bahco laplander in my pack if i plan to use it. that jeff white forest tool looks like a great tool. Have a great day :)

I would love to see a man survive a winter in the North Woods with his machete or big blade. And to talk down about ESEE knives just shows that you don’t have any true experience out in the woods. If you care to prove me wrong, we live pretty close. I’d be happy to spend a couple weeks in the woods together. Hit me up.

Eder had a machete that's great & it's not junglas

This is one of your coolest videos, man. A road trip to Wazoo HQ and some dirt time with Donnie Dust; now THAT is an awesome experience. Thanks for bringing us along.

So many negative comments about nearly everything in this kit. I think this is a very poor review.

i agree with a lot of what you say. i like silky but have broken one so i prefer my bahco saws overall. i too prefer a machete over an axe year round but especially in the summer because im in thick eastern woodlands. my favorite is the cold steel all terrain chopper. i do very much like large knives and often shoulder carry em like you do with your forest tool. i havent tried the forest tool but would like to sometime. my favorite is the esee junglas. it has served me really well and can do about any task in the woods

I find i really like condor terrachete. Its not very expensive but its worth every penny. Im not a ax person my unless i have a woodstove. If im going camping/ hiking i take a 4in fixed blade a short machete and a folding saw. My camping is a mix of light weight backpack gear and bushcraft type gear. Im not sleeping in a wool blanket when i can have a sleeping bag for half the weight and twice the warmth. I really like BPS adventurer, or BPS Aura. I don't like mora companion because the sheath is righthand carry. I made kydex for my Garberg. Also the Garberg needed to be sharped before it was worthwhile

seeing a new video from jake makes me happy! 🎉

Great vid, Garberg is my choice as well but been using more flat grind style knives lately. White River Ursus 45 in 3V and the White River Ursus Cub in Magnacut. I also use a Silky saw and a Kukri Ktac by Condor for my large knife. For pocket knife I carry a Leatherman Skeletool daily.

A what is the name of the emblem of the tattoo on your arm. On Dual Survival theres a guy wearing a cool shirt that has that emblem on it. I been looking for that shirt with that emblem.

I'm a big blade small belt and pocket guy my pocket carry is same Swiss as yours or a bigger HUNTER noodle them ill leave the belt knife home great vid jake good to see ya

I like the Garberg but it has one flaw that drives me nuts. The bevel is to small for the abrupt belly sweep it has. That's why most people have black coating still left on the belly portion. This leads to grinding just the apex which can cause an obtuse convexing or secondary edge. I have found a very lowcost alternative. The Flissa Scandi knife on Amazon in D2 Steel has an excellent scandi edge . Only $19-$25 I modded mine with new handles , they are excellent blade blanks for project knives. I think the G10 version is probably the best choice for those who just want the stock blade . That said if ya got the skills they are awesome blades. Some of the best plunge lines I've seen and the steel is a good heat treat. Anyways I got both on video if ya want to check them out. Nice channel ya got man👍 ill be watching .

I love my Forest Tool as well, especially the first gen one with its narrower grip without the swell/recurve. And I too hate the Summer.

Hey Jake good to see ya back. 👍 I guess for me the landscape dictates the machete or the ax for me. most the woodlands around me aren’t dense so the tree are on average bigger so I carry camp ax mostly

I live in Puerto Rico so a machete is a necessary tool. I use the WC parang, WC Blackbird, WC fire and bone, silky saw and Swiss Army knife Atlas… I’m a custom made knife and trust William Collins knives.

Surprised Canterbury didn’t cry the Jeff White was “butchered”..

I'm a Mora and Condor, Coldsteel fan when it comes to belt knives. As for choosing an ax or machete, I well always go with a machete. I prefer a 12 to 18-inch machete. I carry 2 machete in the truck of my car a Tramontina 18 inch bolo and a Ontario 12 inch with a hard guard. I'm very comfortable with both. As for a pocket knife I prefer traditional slipjoint, Sak, RR, or lock back Rat 1, Buck 110. My old time favorite is my GI tanto combined with a Mora HD.

I agree with you 100%. I love bigger blades. I very much dislike folding knives. Thanks for sharing 🫡👍

LOVE THE NEW BUCKSKIN SWAG BRUDDAH!!!! Bless you my friend 🙏🏽

Kershaw makes a great machedy.

i like a large chopping blade personally. i use a junglas, sp raider bowie, and sp5 from ontario. i prefer splitting wood with a baton and like the option to hang them off my belt with ease.i typically run kind of tool heavy, the chopper and saw will be in my backpack, a medium duty camp knife on my hip like my srk, a multitool or swiss army style knife, and usually a folder.

Glad to see you back jake.

Gerber gator pro, woodsman pal style machete, best thing I’ve found so far for where I live

Garberg, pocket boy, and wal mart fall apart machete here in AZ

I like the LT Wright machete. I got 4 of them. In fact. LT WRIGHT is my favorite knife builder for everything. The genesis is my favorite blade.

Where can I find that big blade you have

The ESEE Junglas is actually a pretty great big blade. I would have preferred a little beefier blade (although it is more metal than the Ontario RTAK II), but it works great. I've straight up abused mine for around 10+ years and it's still going strong. Again, more beefier behind the edge and convexed would have been perfect. Tramontina machetes for me all the way. Right now, rolling with a 13" Kailash Panawal Khukuri, micarta scales. Amazing chopper. Awkward for batoning, but it'll usually split via chopping anyway. Add in a small folding knife on sheath. Tomahawk head. Silky saw that's about the same exact length folded.... major firepower in an easily portable and concealable package in a smaller backpack.

I have both a hatchet and a machete

You can always add a smaller tomahawk head (like the Cold Steel Trailhawk) to the large blade kit. This way you have the best of both worlds. The tomahawk can take over for heavier chopping and splitting/batoning work without having the need for a heavier and larger hatchet or axe (though admittedly, not as efficient, of course). Frontier days in North America, common foot carry was your rifle, tomahawk, and large blade...

Good stuff. I like the thought process behind your choices. Also, you look like you've slimmed down! Keep up the good work.

Leatherman, Garberg, Bacho, and 16 inch Council Tool hatchet will be what I use until I leave this earth. The latter 3 will all fit in my Hidden Woodsman M23 side pocket until they go on my belt lol

Love my garberg and Laplander. I’ll start to carry my hardcore hammer survival hatchet in the winter months. Perfect for New England winters 😎
