Nice domostration. I wish they would still ues it more. I wouldn't have to tromp through so much of it every time I take out on a hike!! I introduced u to my two sons with ur video on the different pocket knives and there blades. Got them hooked immediately. Keep it up. Your Gerat!!!
@ bennyD shiny chrome look is for wall hangers...make sure handle are good..and blade don't show a lot of dings in the edge..trust you judgement....safe journeys
this a cool vid. i found this stuff last year when i moved to the ozarks and hav been using it for tender, torches, and well, brooms, for clearing fire spots. i've been pondering its use as a thatch like roofing material and filter lining for a gypsy well. the matts and loom are a cool thing to know and i'll be trying that pot scrubber on my soot stained canteen cup in the field to save a scolding from the wife for turning the kitchen sink black. thanks man.
Great information here once again Blackie. I am not sure what we call broomsage in NZ but have seen some similar. Thanks Blackie for sharing your wealth of experience mate.
If you're planning on using them for bushcraft you need to make sure they are not ornamental. Usually an ornamental khukuri will have been chrome plated or have been highly engraved. You might want to check Khukuri House handicraft industries web site for genuine blades as supplied to the Gurka regiments serving with the British army. They have many styles at very good prices. I have used them and can recommend them.
Fantastic video.

Thanks for this video. Just wondering what is the botanical Latin name of broom sage? 🙏
Before modern materials nature provided all our needs, makes me think that somehow we have not progressed that far!

i say this in a good way, you are awesome! thanks.
I have know those since childhood as beaver mats. We even made "forts" from them.
i found 2 old kukri's at an antique store for $56 a piece. i was thinking about buying them. are there certain things i should look for on them?
I wish you would explain how to get rid of it. It has completely taken over the pastures and the cows will not eat it.
you might want to invest in a microphone for your camera. you can get them at any store that sell electronics for like 30$
