- A quick overview of my bushcraft cook kit. This is indulgent and somewhat bulky with stainless steel--it is definitely not like my ultralight backpacking kits! But it has quite a few things in it, and I love the sturdiness and old school vibe of leather, waxed canvas, and steel. Complete contents are listed below. Please comment to ask questions or to offer suggestions! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! I’ve enjoyed both.
I thought my kit was gr8 .. Yours is awesome! All of what is needed in a smaller package. Very well thought out. 🙌👏
Thank you. I’m tweaking the storage. I may custom make my own kit bag for it.
Howdy from Oklahoma. Nice kit. Enjoyed your informative presentation. Thanks for taking the time to make the video.
My pleasure! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
That's a good looking kit. Looks like you're ready for any meal. I like the old school feel. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you. Yes, I like the heft and the weight of it. Simple but effective.

Thank you. I’m glad you did and I appreciate your comment. Always fun to put kits together!
Good video and thanks for sharing. I do have one question. Approximately how much does this weigh?
Thanks!
Man i see all these almost maxed out fire kits and all of them are missing the best most fun way of starting a fire. No one has a small magnifying glass.
I used one growing up to incinerate leaves. Sadly, most of my trips in the eastern US tend to be in pretty thick woodlands where such an ignition source would be iffy.
@@BentbrooksRambles i live in northern Minnesota. The woods are thick here. But ok. What i ment was its always the one item missing in those kits. I have my own kit as well. Char cloth and so on. There is a time and place for each item. Wet wood may need something more. But char cloth works with all igniter. A spark. A beam of light. Even friction.
@@aaronzierke9920 yep, you may have noted I carry char cloth in my flint and steel kit. I prefer using fat wood scrapings and ferro rod for 99% of my fires, but then I absolutely love the scent of fatwood. It’s also the best local tinder option in my region (easily found and harvested with little effort), and that little blaze is a heartwarming sight on grey mornings in the Smoky Mountains.
@@BentbrooksRambles fat wood works fine but i like to soak it in sap as well. Once them shavings are lite its nice to put a small soaked piece of it on for extra blaze. All you do is get sap and melt it. Then soak match size peices of fat wood in it . Take them out to dry and cool. They work great on a wet day. Minnesota is not a real dry place. And we have more fat wood than most places. Its a good smell in small amounts . I prefer oak or maple or even basswood to burn. Pine sends to many embers in to the air. And makes to much suit . I alway grab some birch bark for my tinder . Lites way easy and gets a good flame going. I have a tin full of it.
@@aaronzierke9920 I just use fatwood to get things going, hardwood for fuel. I haven’t had to use more than fatwood to start any fire where I live, rain or shine, but soaking it may be a good tip for folks in some climates.
Very nice kit! Do you use a spork to eat or something else?
I realized as it was rendering that I'd left my spoons (a long-handled titanium one and a small, Kupilka spoon) in the drying rack! I do sometimes make utensils, though, given the time.
Nice kit, subbed 😊
Thank you!
I don’t know how to ask you without begging. Can you make me one of those pot and pan covers?? I love the toaks one and I’ve tried to make my own and improvise but those are amazing how much? Where can I send the money and I’ll cover shipping …… PLEASE
You’re in luck, friend: www.toaksoutdoor.com/products/bag
@@BentbrooksRambles which would you recommend for the alpine MSR?
@@pebbleinyoshoe532 It depends on the size of your pot-the stowaway pots come in a range of sizes. I’d just compare the volume and measurements of your MSR to some of the TOAKS pots listed on the TOAKS page I linked. The circumference is the key start to match, I’d think. Good luck!
👍👍
