RIP Mors. This video is as good as the day it was made, a true bushcraft and survival legend
RIP Mors. So much knowledge passed on during your years on this planet.
R.i.p. guru mors its easy to listen to you because everything you say is true!
Pleased you did these videos sir awsome
Hi Mors: from one 77 year old to another ; I enjoy hearing & learning from you. Yes we slow down & avoid portages but sitting to the side is not yet an option. Thanks Brian 77
Mors, you are one of the most brilliant minds in the world when it comes to outdoor/survival skills! I had the opportunity to meet you in 2001in PEI and witness first hand the magic of fire with a bow drill. I remembered thinking when you said "it is a bit chilly and windy here today so it will probably take the better part 20 seconds to get a fire started" this guy is full of .... but when you made fire it was one of the most incredible things I had ever witnessed first hand in my life. I went home and practiced and practiced then finally made my own magic. You Mr. Kochanski have inspired and touched so many people when it comes to outdoor skills. Thank-you for sharing your Knowledge!

Mors is still the most informative genuine bush living instructors. Thanks for sharing. All the very best from Scotland. Garry
Ha ha ha! On the subject of what makes a survival knife..."I'll take a stab at it." Nice pun.
This man is a prime example of knowlede is the true value of survival and there's no replacing that with any amount of money or new technology.
I am sorry you couldn't make it this year 😞 but am grateful for you going out of your way and sharing your legendary knowledge with us Mors, thank you!!! 😊
Greetings from nova Scotia, I cannot stress enough what a national treasure Mors Kochanski is I so much wish I could travel to this year's symposium in Alberta, I know I will never get there..Thank you for making your videos, I always learn something new. God bless Mors Kochanski, and his fellow instructors!!! Thank you for your time and attention to this comment, best regards.
Mors has forgotten more than most of us has learned. Understanding the relationship of permeability, vapor, and temperature is key.
Classic Mors, classic info, classic greatness. He is our guru of woods wisdom.
Always good to see an upload from the man himself 👍and I don't want to hear this nonsense about "getting on in the years", you're looking as good as ever
I could listen to Mors for hours and hours. I don't think I've ever watched one of his videos without learning something new. This stuff is pure gold - but more useful.
Regardless of how much I think I know about a particular subject. I can watch one of your videos on said subject and still come away with something new. Your videos are truly appreciated! I will never get tired of listening to you teach. Happy birthday Mors.
The grand syllabus is really an indispensable source of knowledge. Thanks Mors for writing it, and continuing to share your knowledge and experience.
Dear Mors, i deeply appreciate what you share , show and teach.- meanwhile i am "only" 46 years old, and bushcraft (i am even not sure if it was named like that back than) was and is a vital part in my life since approx 35 years. the most true thing i have read is " the more you know the less you (have to ) carry. "
Its really good to know that some one is there who knows important knowledge.
thank you very much.
Gems of Common Sense .. Simple .. Basic .. Nothing Fancy.
From the Master .. Respect.
Thank you Mors for your life's work you've blessed so many . I read your book Bush craft 21 years ago you shortened the learning curve by years. thank you.
We are very blessed to have this woodsmen still making videos. God bless Mors ! He is one of a kind!
This man is a veritable treasure trove of knowledge and information. I came across his videos only a few months ago. I can only imagine what learning from him first hand could do to enhance one's confidence in oneself and diminish one's fears of being alone in a wilderness environment. RIP sir.
i feel honored to be able to see a living legend on of all places youtube.thanks Mors
I would hope that you continue TH-cam videos with much desire, as you still can teach many! I have much knowledge, myself. But, at 55, I have more to learn. And, a desire to learn more. "Bo" in North Carolina USA. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND STILL DO!
imagine showing up for class and you "forgot your knife" and as a result you got a chance to buy a cheap Mors knife for almost nothing
God Bless you sir! Your educational experience an your willingness to share has saved my life on two seperate occasions! Thanks to you I will always be prepared!
happy birthday mors. the video is greatly appreciated
I spent hours chatting to mors around the camp fire, I hope he stays well. Age comes to us all
Thank you Mors!. Legend !. All the best from Sandvik
Appreciate your expertise Mr. Mors. Keeep making these videos as long as you can. This is information that needs to be captured and kept. Thank you.
Mors, thanks for another video. I've always enjoyed and learned from them. Happy Birthday, and many more!..... Ken
Mors is truly a tresure trove of knolege. He has likely forgot more than i will ever know.
Happy birthday Mors always good to see the godfather of bushcraft. Thanks for all you have done.
The orange Full Tang knife looked like it is the LT Wright Lagoom. I own the smaller model called the lt wright kamrat in o1. Thanks for everything youve taught me Mors. Hope this finds you well
Thank you for the video sir. It's an honor to get knowledge from the old guard. Much respect to you!
Thanks mors. The man who knows real Bushcraft ☺
Always a pleasure Mors keep them comming when you can please thank you for your wisdom. I appreciate you!
I'm a subber of yours, No BS here of course. Great words of real wisdom that everyone purporting to be "experts", should listen to. Yep Scandi grind any one can keep it sharp. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for sharing your skills that you have learned invented and still do to the test.
Thanks, Mors. Keep reminding us about the essentials.
Happy birthday Mors and thank you for sharing your vast knowlege.
That's some great information,,,thanks for sharing this with me, I appreciate your time and knowledge.
Thank you for sharing. Did a quick search for a black fabric with reflective coating, and found that Seattle Fabric makes one. Fairly expensive though.
Thank you so very much Mors! I've learned a great deal from you over the years, been watching, reading, and practicing what you've shared so generously for quite some time now. Sincerely thank you.
happy birthday Mors
... thanks for the video
Great video thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Great video! Mors alwahs so interesting ! Good work on the B roll with the close up shots of the knives :)
Great video sir, You are very respected by many, me included. Please keep up the useful information . Thank you for all your info.
Good video, beautiful collection!!!
So awesome to here from Mors! Always interesting and informative. Thank you!
Im really glad he named the knives
Happy birthday mors! Please keep making videos!!
12:00 Seven because that is the perfect number in wrapping strands around a single middle strand, so sic plus one is seven. It’s a geometric thing in the way you make the lines.
Solid video, so much wisdom and passion. Love to see that yawara stick application again. Having the rod inside that cover/container to protect the rod from water and having some magnesium on top of that... seems to have some though put into the design. Other ferro rods with an integrated cover container seems too short for a big hand or doesn't have that solid look. Don't recall seeing other having magnesium on the surface of the cover (and the magnesium should not react to water). Clever. I also like that the grip is not tiny considering I might need the fire making when I am very frozen. Yes, some ferro rods have big grips, but far from all. Also clever to be able to have some vaselin cotton in that tiny integrated storage: I tend to want everything needed for a specific task in one place so when frozen and tired in the dark, there is less risk of messing up by not finding gear in a timely manner.
The tool showed in this channel is not easy to find these days or so it seems. Was that Robert Withrow Jr. or Senior? I do wonder if the tool is still sold somewhere.
Good to see you Mors! I carry the Mora Black. You have given me some great ideas to arm it with an inner tube:) And being prone to slivers, adding tweezers is ideal. The Survival Blanket should be called a sheet. Had expected one to be a blanket that would cover me but it was only good as a wrap in the rain, bag got soaked... Ended up buying three larger ones and tossing them into my pack. Great video, thanks Mors!
Just wondering about getting a close up of your bandsaw knife from 30 years ago. Then if I ever come across one I'll know what I have:)
Love u Mors&all you’ve done
Love the vid''
I bow to the master.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Go Karamat !!!
The Man that wrote the book on BushCraft.
Is Mr. Kochański Polish? Just wondering because seems like a Polish name and I am looking for hunting tips in the area.
Great information! Thank you so much.
happy bday Mors!
Could you please tell us your thoughts on Grohmann knives particularly #1,#3 and #4 survival? Did you ever use any of their products?Thank You .
So much knowledge, many resources available from you, Thanks! I would want to know where to get the large magnesium ferro rod thing you have. I bet you laugh at all the hype surrounding large "chopper" or survival knives.
Mr. Kochansky, thank you sir!
Will there young fellow I'm new to this you tube thing at 74 years old I think I can still learn might night remember, but I can still learn, memory still great like a iron trap but short . all kidding aside sad to you couldn't make to your get together . As for the knives just pick up my first Scandi blade love it. But Let's face it here in the west in California I'm just a bowie guy since I was old enough to earn money and buy one ,I have never found anything I could not do with it I guess dad never told me I could not do that with that blade I just did it . So all this stuff I see on you tube all the new steels every body calling what I have shit steel is just nuts to me but that's how it is . . HAPPY TRAILS YOUNG MAN LATER .
The mind is most important. It can make any blade work. So your Bowie is just fine 😁.
A library of knowledge closed when this gentleman died. Thanks for the skills, Mors. 🥾🏔️
The nylon bonded Mylar martial is nor rear. It is used to make grow tents used in hydroponics. Google is your friend, just look up nylon Mylar and your find it.
Always good to hear it straight from the man. What was that magnesium cigar that held a watertight chamber in one end and a ferro rod in the other? Maybe the Mag Stryker System?
Mag Striker by SOL? No. Doesn't look close. I believe the old "cigar" item shown here can't be found for buying any more. Pretty unique item shown by Mors.
Happy birthday sir great videos from mid coast Maine Waldoboro
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR, to many more yrs of robust health
Maybe five years later I’m still waiting on my skookum request … I got it and love it. Good things come to those who wait.
Thanks, beautiful vid
Lovely man!!Much knowledge -- I am grateful!
Is Rod Garcia still in business or still alive ?
That Sandvik steel Mora is the Mora no1. It's laminated steel. It was always the more expensive Mora together with the full tang (lapplander series) hunting knives. They also came with leather sheaths. Often they call the red painted handle Mora's no 1 but they are actually the budget ones called no 2.
That Jason Gustavson/Ben Piersma knife with the orange handle I really like. Too bad it's in O1 tool steel. Not the best for the climate I live in or visit.
I get excited everytime he says sloyed.
i see your point on the mylar bag if it was clear you would have an instant super shelter.
Great that Mors agrees thatits silly to waste space of cutting edge near the handle. I never understood the point of choils,including small sharpening choils. What difference would it make even if you were unable to sharpen it right to the handle if you put a stupid choil there its worse than dull because now it catches everything you try to cut.
Good prezentation! Thanks!
Thanks Mors...sure appreciate you amigo!...atb,,,woods
who is " Rob Withrow(?)" and where can I find that Magnesium ferro cigar combo?
Mylar blanket does work, had to use it last winter when I fell out of my boat last.
I bought a Condor bushlore on your advice. I discovered 3,000lb paracord that had been inaccurately described on Amazon, Walmart and even the manufacturers web site since it was first released a few years ago. Contacted them and I bought 100ft, plus 100ft 1,200lb paracord, just to see. Interesting rope. Take care young man, eh.
0:51 Mors's humour. Awesome!
Thank you , sir .
Thanks MORS
Thanks for the video
Thank you for sharing!
Well done. And Happy Birthday 77 🎂
Thank you for sharing
Mors kohanski one of the legends !!
Wonder if bushcrafters on u tube hve listened 2 this ?? #maga #keepbushcraftreal
GREAT STUFF, Love it !
Great Talk Mors
You mean it doesn't weigh 3 lbs, isn't made from 8 mm stock with saw back, multiple compound grinds, fire steel striking notch, 'bow drill divot', with attached ferro rod / flashlight / med kit / sharpening stone hanging off the 'sheath system' set up for 'scout carry'?
Thanks Mors! By the way, ny father is 78 years old and still going strong.😊
You are one of thé best!
Had to subscribe, I'm sure you have a few things to learn. May you RIP.
Search "201t nylon ripstop reflective fabric for photographic equipment" I think this is the stuff used in the photograph studio reflectors Mors is referring to. Or at least very close. It seems the lightest weight material I could find... Cheers
Happy birthday brother
What's the brand name of the robust knives.
your hero to many sir god bless
This is like Elvis doing a video.
good video! i also have a pet peeve when it comes to excessive ricasso or finger choil taking up valuable blade space, i have even seen a finger choil on a 3" knife! seriously i dont understand the point of it.
why the continuous curve though? other than skinning large animals, i dont see the use. id rather have a mostly straght blade with a medium belly near the end. easier to sharpen.
a mora companion or companion hd is really all the knife most people would need doing most wilderness tasks, and its so inexpensive! if going for a more expensive knife i will go with a full flat grind because i find it usefull in more applications than a scandi grind. although i admit a scandi is a verry useable knife and excells at wood carving.
True. A Mora Companion. Or the HD version is in reality all that most bushcrafters, work in the wild, needs. In the jungle a machete is a valuable asset. But not so much in the north .
