Good tips Dave. I've camped for 45+ years & rarely carried an ax or saw. Wrist size piece of dead wood & a rock on the ground as an anvil. Break it or burn it smaller. Cheers 👍
I subscribe to all the Pathfinder instructors and have made several purchases from SRO and never knew they had a channel until now. Step up your game youtube-algorithms!
You can also take advantage of the natural crack by cutting with the saw on one side then rolling over and making another cut at the length you want then smashing the end on the stump or whatever. Continue by making cuts with the saw and leaving enough of the flat to split/ break off another chunk. Much less work
The most important tool that he used in every technique is the tree stump he's working on. I'm certain he knows that, just pointing out that the base is needed. *Lesson learned:* When you know you will process great amounts of wood, find a camping site that gives you access to wood (obviously) and a tree stump or fallen tree you can use as a base. Having a solid base makes wood processing much safer!
I used to use a tomahawk with a beard type axe head with a long handle from cold steel because its really light an if if the handles I can just a new one from the woods
That’s why your the man Dave!!! I really respect all you do would love to take your class but funds are not looking good these days and I’m laid off right now, and can’t get my damn unemployment check because they to slow🤬 but maybe one day I will get to meet the legend! And I think I love close well kinda I’m from Kentucky and I think your in Ohio? Or West Virginia?
Han pasado más 50 años desde mis aveturas acampando y explorando en una forma muy sencilla y con herramientas básicas los bosques de mi lejana tierra. Nunca en aquella época ibamos a tratar un cuchillo para hacer tareas que deberían ser echas con las herramientas propicias. El cuchillo era una herramienta para las tareas delicadas donde nunca se arriesgaría sus qualidades. Para cortar leña y maleza se utilizaban machetes y si peso era un probema hachitas livianas y muy filosas. Que ha pasado ahora? es el internet que ha fomentado utilizar un cuchillo para hacer el trabajo del machete? Es el internet que ha creado un mercado donde ha obligado a los fabricantes de cuchillos de tener modelos de 10 cm de hoja o menos con un gruesor de 5 mm o más? El uso de los pequeños cuchillos ahora es como si uno fuera a forjar hierro con un cuchillo de matricero. Saludos desde Tasmania.

Just wanted to let you know, I used your Bannock recipe, it was GREAT, only 2 changes I made was I added 1/2 cup more flour, ( to feed the dog some), and I added 3 cut up pear slices to mine, I also have subbed to your channel. If you get a min., please check out mine. Thanks in advance. Duane
Dave how's it going I've got an idea rolling around in my head and was wondering if I called the number for self reliance if they could put my on the phone with you and maybe we could design a sure winner piece of gear.
Same here, there isn't much around my area that can't be cut down with a good machete. I'll take a saw and an axe out if I'm building something with logs that are bigger than 15cm in diameter, but there's no real reason to carry the axe for everyday use.
Great instruction, Dave. Thanks.
Cool trick to remember when I'm out in the woods!! Thx!!
Dave let's you know so if ya listen and practice you're good to go. Thanks Dave👍😁⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Been watching Dave's content for 11 years now. I'm still learning new things from him every time.
Good tips Dave.

Sent over here from the Corporal. Looking forward to watching this channel now as well.

As always sometimes a short reminder of the basics are worth doing!! Thanks Dave
Great content as always !

Excellent point, trying to chop on the ground when it's soft just soaks up your blow.
@@asmith7876 yeah and that blow gets expensive!!! lol jk
Dave is the king
Thanks Dave. Excellent info as always.
Cool Video 👍
Thank U for the Info and the Links 👍
Thanks for all yall do
Thanks for the video. Thumbed up.
Great information as usual. Thanks, Dave.
Good tips thanks for sharing
Nice one Dave !
I had no idea this channel existed!! awesome guys ty so much!! love from Canada:)
Find 2 close trees or fork in tree insert stave of wood apply foward or rearward pressure & snap, no tools required! IMO! Great video DC.......ATB
Really poor idea.
Thanks Dave, another great and to the point video!
As always another great video. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!
Excellent instruction. Being “lazy” isn’t always the bad way to go about things.
This has nothing to do with being lazy.
Really, that poplar is like the balsawood for model airplanes
Thnxs 4 uploading and sharing
Simple and sweet!
Great stuff as always Dave!
You are indeed a master¡ Thanks for sharing your amazing knowledge¡¡
Really appreciate the knowledge Dave!
great info Dave. Thanks from Ireland
Dave, great video and info !!!!!!!!!!
Reminds me of the videos I learned so much from👍👍
Thank-you!
Thanks uncle Dave ^^ !!!!
I have used hatchets and axes and big knives for a couple of decades. I prefer a saw and a big knife like a Kukri or a big Bowie.
Have a great weekend SRO
Hello from Oklahoma! Good Stuff! Thanks for all you all do! Say Hi to the crew! God Bless!
Thanks Dave, those are very useful tips. Alan Rice
Another great informative video. Only one question what is the background noise?
Sounds like cicadas to me. They are insects and when it's their season they come out in force, the sound can be almost deafening.
I used to use a tomahawk with a beard type axe head with a long handle from cold steel because its really light an if if the handles I can just a new one from the woods
That’s why your the man Dave!!! I really respect all you do would love to take your class but funds are not looking good these days and I’m laid off right now, and can’t get my damn unemployment check because they to slow🤬 but maybe one day I will get to meet the legend! And I think I love close well kinda I’m from Kentucky and I think your in Ohio? Or West Virginia?
I drag the wood to where I want to burn it and the long stuff I stick the end in or burn the middle..
Just keep feeding it in..

That the willow? How’s it holding up on wood work
What do we have to do to get these on DVD
Dave, don’t you get a bunch of splinters when you don’t use gloves?
Dave how's it going I've got an idea rolling around in my head and was wondering if I called the number for self reliance if they could put my on the phone with you and maybe we could design a sure winner piece of gear.
@Rakeem Foster why do you make dreams happen it's my idea it's not free
🇺🇸😎👍
In my area, we carry machetes instead of axes.
Same here, there isn't much around my area that can't be cut down with a good machete. I'll take a saw and an axe out if I'm building something with logs that are bigger than 15cm in diameter, but there's no real reason to carry the axe for everyday use.
Can’t hear
Poor sound
The sound is terrible - all I can here are the insects
