Casper understands you, that’s nice. Always good to have a friend to be there in a time of need. But then came Dunlop. Dunlop don’t deflate Casper anymore than he already is.
Good little vid Jason! Reminded me of the day I wound up homeless years ago. Had everything I needed to make a camp by the time I hit the riverbank. All from scrounging along the way.
The real key to using a knife for survival in my mind, is the ability to use it to build other tools you might be able to use with the resources found around you. Imagination, and practical thinking need to go with it.
Good morning Mr. Salyer. (4.30am). Having Casper & Dunlop as a mate does helps mentally but it is also known as displacement syndrone. Absoutely nothing wrong with that, we do what's necessary to survive. To be pysically fit one must be mentally fit too. We give you 10 points for producing a fire on your second try, took us five goes before we got lunch cooked. Also may we add that there's a lot you can do with bamboo, such as shelter, water carrier & storage, tools & weapons and our favourite weave a basket with handles so you can forage for food, tinder etc. You can also cook food in it. Also perhaps you should get some natural medicine for that cut on your hand. Mr. Kay could help you with that. Mr. Alan Kay is full of wonders, we are very proficient with the kukri coz of him. BTW we've comleted our potato patch, now lets see if they grow. See you next ON3.
It's all about the basic's to me. Learn the basic then you can Improvise and adapt to your surroundings. Never give up. Stay occupied setting up resources for the next day. Always think ahead once you have your current situation somewhat in hand.
This was one of the more entertaining videos I’ve seen in awhile 😂 Love the use of resources and the “grit” you displayed getting a fire.. Good job brother 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
Groovy stuff. I know what you mean about friction fire. It's a ball buster, but what a joy when it works. Looking forward to more in this series. Cheers from Montreal QC.
An old adage I heard/read, not really sure… The most important items you could ever carry are items either impossible to replicate in nature or very difficult…. ie… high carbon steel knife, tarps, plastic sheeting, ferro rods, fish hooks, rot proof cordage like bank line, etc… makes life saving abilities 100x easier…
When you first pulled out the bamboo I was hoping that you were going to try that. I saw the first time you did it or at least the first time you filmed it and I was so very thrilled to learn a different way to start a friction fire. I'm sure I thanked you on that video but I'm also going to thank you again on this one. Keep up the good work Ole buddy.
I enjoy the mindset and approach I live in a rural suburban area and one of the classes we teach is about suburban survival and all the resources available if you just think a little outside the norm. Love the appt love the concepts cheers K
Great video Jason! Combining learning and entertainment, is always good. I have asked about Alan a few times. Is he ok? Only answer is you want to. I'm just unaware of what is going on with him.
You're entering ASMR-territory with the bamboo-splitting sound😂. I had anticipated prior to watching the episode, that the work on the shelter would be the easiest part for you, because you could use a variety of tools in addition to the knife (e.g. a baton or rock and natural or scavenged materials). Nice crib.👍
I love that knife design… went to their site and it’s not listed… Prototype? It’s like a grown up version of a Battle horse knives Comanche or Foxhound…. And that’s great company to be in!
G'Day Jason, I like this video being about on the outer edge of suburbia & you using those sheets of tin etc that is definitely something worth doing & I have used down here in Australia many years back with a group of mates. We successfully built a decent shelter using many sheets of corrugated iron as well as building a decent fire place with it too. I like your full tang knife I see it has some Damascus feathering in it did you make this yourself? and did you use high carbon steel or some type of stainless steel? I make my own knives too that's why I ask lol. Well look forward to your next video and should check out your previous ones too. Stay safe & stay sharp 😁😉
That pool of muddy water if we can dig a sort of channeling it to flow to one side the dia a hole about a few inches away from the muddy water so that the ground itself act as a filter then either use the charcoal or fire to boil it maybe using hot rocks ...hmmmm..
I have attempted the fire plow a few times using cottonwood with very little success. It seems to be very material dependent. What have you had success with?
I’ve been enjoying the series. And thinking about what knife I would want if I was to try this myself. I have so many knives. But it would probably have to be one of my edc knives. So maybe I need to start carrying something besides the Prather War Bowie or Brakimo (my most used edc’s).
Arctodus Simus You cant go wrong with a full tang knife if you notice with most of these survival people they carry and use a full tang knife as they are stronger than a flip or pocket knife.
I guess Dunlop failed to mention if you were to split him open his head he is one continuous rubber band wrapped like a ball of yarn lots of uses there I would believe
You said ask questions?? Ok here are some stealth camping what are some punishments? And have personally got loss in the backcountry where had to do overnight survival techniques to make it til you were rescued or had to self rescue? I am planning on hiking a section of the AT and I am quite nervous. First I have to take a survival training course…. Hope you find time to answer a few of my questions thanks
While I have never been lost, I have definitely been turned around a bit. I was able to use my navigation skills to course correct and find my way back. Training is key. The more skills you have the more confident you will be. Good luck!
I went truck camping last night and forgot a lighter. I tried using this little farro rod on my leatherman to ignite a tumble weed ( the ones for bbq starting) but I ended up starting the fire with my jumper cables and a tent stake. Had to light a napkin then the tumbleweed.
"I can sleep almost anywhere." That was my dad. He learned it in the army. "If they give you a 20 minute break, you take a 15 minute nap then hit the latrine." Unfortunately, I didn't inherit it from him...
Great video with great information!!!! And yes bamboo is such a highly underrated material that can be used in SO many diff ways!!!! And with how fast it grows back....I wish it grew everywhere!
Definitely Jason practice practice it all will come down to what you know and do simple things but practical thank you very much stay safe out there God bless your family
I'm also carrying a small 300 grit diamond sharpener these days. After a hard day of hacking, digging and maybe prying just restoring an edge can make a big difference.
Great vid brother Two of my favorite knife quotes: 1. "You must always have a knife, in the darkness..." 2. "A good knife is gonna be your most important tool in the survival situation, it allows you to manipulate the environment around you, and create some order in the chaos."
Would love to have that knife! Just no wood handles please I do not like wooden knife handles. I see it’s a prototype if you start making it I would definitely get one!

One man's trash is another man's treasure!
I wish this video was longer. I am enjoying this series. I hope that there's more to come.
Casper is a pretty cool Bush buddy / mascot 😊😊🌲🌳🌲🌳🇬🇧👍😎💪
Casper has a real attitude problem.
@@ONThree he does seem a bit "deflated" 😂
Good little vid Jason!
Reminded me of the day I wound up homeless years ago.
Had everything I needed to make a camp by the time I hit the riverbank. All from scrounging along the way.
That's why I watch your channel, because you showed that it often takes more than a couple of tries. Good on you.
Excellent Survival Video!! And Fire making skills!!
Those tactical flip flops ain’t gonna help you stay warm. Kiddin. Thanx for the vid.
Ask Dunlop iff he still has contact with his distant couson Wilson 😂
He said they are not on speaking terms. Apparently all of the fame went straight to Wilson’s head.
@@ONThree 😂😂😂
😂

Knowledge > Gear
Spider on you and you don't even care lol... Love this series... Do more
Love the bamboo bed, and Dunlap. Nice blade per Mr. B. Yeah use that bamboo and get rid of it. As always, we enjoy watching.
This was one of the more entertaining videos I’ve seen in awhile 😂 Love the use of resources and the “grit” you displayed getting a fire.. Good job brother 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
Thanks for watching!

I love Alan I 'd like to see him again...
Alan is good. He is enjoying his solitude.

So much for Casper the "Friendly" Ghost....
Awesome!
Good to go
Ppl might laugh but in sere school we were taught that a Dunlop or Casper can reduce stress boredom .and anxiety
Jus caught your vids but gotta say
really enjoying them thnks
What’s the best do it all fixed blade knife? Which one are you using in the video?
Bear Forest Knives. Check it out!
Just don't throw Casper into the sea
Yeah, he can’t swim.
I love that knife design… went to their site and it’s not listed… Prototype? It’s like a grown up version of a Battle horse knives Comanche or Foxhound…. And that’s great company to be in!
Yes. The knife in this video is a prototype. Contact BFK and he may be able to help you out.
I see you had a hitchhiker Daddy Long Legs on your shoulder. Haha
Can tell this is a bear forest knife, I own several and are absolutely amazing blades but what model is this one? Love the blade profile on it
It is a prototype we are calling The Yukon.
@@SurvivalDispatch nice, might have to check it out once it comes out. Be a nice addition to the bear forests knives
great video. Dunlop are the bears engraved as cool semi Damascus effect ;-)
Thanks!!
Bamboo friction fire....yep
Best intro 😂
Are you sure that jawbone wasn't human??
Hi Casper! 😂

Howdy Rodney,
The knife was made by Bear Forest Knives. It is a high carbon steel and I love it! Really appreciate you watching!
@@SurvivalDispatch No worries mate it is a nice looking knife and thanks for responding. yes I like all types of survival content.
That pool of muddy water if we can dig a sort of channeling it to flow to one side the dia a hole about a few inches away from the muddy water so that the ground itself act as a filter then either use the charcoal or fire to boil it maybe using hot rocks ...hmmmm..
A knife and a marker is
Two tools,sir Jason.
It was a charred stick out of the fire I made using just the knife! No cheaters here!!! Thanks for watching!
At least for me a fire plow is way easier then bow drill , at least for me
I have attempted the fire plow a few times using cottonwood with very little success. It seems to be very material dependent. What have you had success with?
Where has Allen been
I’ve been enjoying the series.
And thinking about what knife I would want if I was to try this myself.
I have so many knives. But it would probably have to be one of my edc knives.
So maybe I need to start carrying something besides the Prather War Bowie or Brakimo (my most used edc’s).

@@rodneymiddleton1044
The only folder I carry is the Cold Steel Pocket Bushman. Far as I’m concerned, it’s the most hardy folding knife.
@@rodneymiddleton1044the 2 knives he mentioned are fixed blade full tang knives
I guess Dunlop failed to mention if you were to split him open his head he is one continuous rubber band wrapped like a ball of yarn lots of uses there I would believe
how do you deal with ticks?
I forgot about bamboo saw how appropriate what's that around your neck
I’m wearing a Wazoo fire starter around my neck. Ha! Would have made things a bit easier wouldn’t it?
Where is allen we haven't seen him in ages
So how are you liking that blade so far?
Love it!
What model of BFK knife is that?
It is a prototype that is not for sale yet. I’m calling it the Yukon!
@@SurvivalDispatch Thanks. I'll have to keep an eye out for it's release.
@@SurvivalDispatch approx. 4.5 inch blade by any chance?
I'm always curious about the size of fixed blades being used as one tool options.
Any comment will do! 😂 But there were several great points mentioned here!
Oh yeah, riiiight. Like you're wearing a FREAKING BELT KNIFE, but don't have a Bic or a Fero rod in yer pocketses....

G.I. issued flip flops?
What brand/model of knife is that?
Bear Forest Knives Prototype, Jason calls it the Yukon👍
shelter with "ONLY" a knife.... AAAAAND SOME ROOFING lol
Wilson 😅
Dunlop 🤦♂️ lol
If you are on the edge of society, just walk back to society and stay at the Ramada inn. Remember kids, society was built as a means for survival.
😀😀😀😀😀😀
What knife is this?
It is a prototype from Bear Forest Knives.
Hey Dunlop, tell him there is a ferro rod on his necklace. LOL
I went truck camping last night and forgot a lighter. I tried using this little farro rod on my leatherman to ignite a tumble weed ( the ones for bbq starting) but I ended up starting the fire with my jumper cables and a tent stake. Had to light a napkin then the tumbleweed.
Nice job!
Good job. We did that once and I happen to remember I stuck a mini lighter in a bag just in case. It was still there.
The more I look at that knife the more I want one. The only problem is I've already got so many. Including some big ones with high carbon steel blades
What is that knife? I also thought about getting one.
It is a prototype made by Bear Forest Knives. Contact them about it and it might become part of their normal lineup. I love the knife as well.
What’s owning so many already got to do with anything? 😂😂😂
Really enjoying the series. You're very resourceful, but I would have liked to see how you would have built your shelter if that tin wasn't available.
There will be plenty of shelter building in future videos that I think you will enjoy.

For Dunlop🙂
Thanks!
My question is, if you and Casper get divorced, who gets the Cat ? 😅😂🤣
I’m taking Casper for everything he’s got!
Great mini series Jason. TAKE CARE..
Great, realistic series. Love the bamboo saw method.
Keep up the good videos
I would like to see a more detailed video of that fire making technique. Good videos!
I’ll put it on the list!
Great video brother
Thanks!!
For the algorithm!
Thanks!
Great vid brother
Two of my favorite knife quotes:
1. "You must always have a knife, in the darkness..."
2. "A good knife is gonna be your most important tool in the survival situation, it allows you to manipulate the environment around you, and create some order in the chaos."
3:30 you have a daddy long legs spider crawling on your shoulder. Eeek!
What's good Dunlop!
Any comments will do? Cool.
Great fire start . I need to try that one .
This is a comment.
Nice!
Do you have any opinions on the Esse 3 knife? Where it would place in the survival knife realm..
The ESEE 3 is a solid choice. It will do 99% of the things you need a knife to do.
I'm sorry dude, but you've got some weird friends.
Hahahahaha!
Dunlop will never be as big as Wilson. Just saying.
He has potential!!
@@SurvivalDispatch I suppose with the right motivation, he would go farther.
Would love to have that knife! Just no wood handles please I do not like wooden knife handles. I see it’s a prototype if you start making it I would definitely get one!
The knife in this video is made by Bear Forest Knives and has mycarta scales.
@@SurvivalDispatch I reached out to them and they stated it will be probably later this year when it’s available. Thanks for the reply.
Have u ever tried cotton and ashes ? Great job with the bamboo!
