Dan it wood be cool to see you do a fat wood video on pine knots from old rotten trees that have decomposed almost entirely on the forest floor. Also the branches close to the trunk on fallen pine. I also live in central Oregon and in certain areas the ponderosa doesn’t always have a fat root ball. I know you could do a great job expanding identification of fat wood.
My dad was a sawmiller in 1930s till WWII got him . He told me about fatwood ,but he called it "rich pine." I guess this was a local term in East Tennessee .
Yes! Gotta love the fatwood! It's not quite like that in my area but on conservation land they have alot of pine trees, so it is available just not as plentiful as it is there. Thanks for showing!
Thank you!!! I'm in Western Washington, and have (unsuccessfully) looked. This is the first video I've watched using the root system for it. Great info!
@@ochocobushcraft1742 I've been watching a lot of channels, getting some good knowledge, but have not yet went out to start practicing the skills. As soon as our weather stops being bipolar, I plan on finally getting out. I will definitely update you. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for this information. I’ve just started bushcrafting and this information helps so much. If you don’t mind me asking what kind of knife and hatchet do you use? Keep up the informative videos and wish you the best out there in the trees
Thank you! Architect Knives 5.5 is my favorite knife to carry. Check out there website, it allows you to build and customize your own knife. I recommend 1095 carbon steel as your blade steel option The hatchet is a Gransfors Bruk hand hatchet, available on Amazon. Spendy, but the best. Good luck in bushcrafting! Hope you find lots of enjoyment!
Dear Ochoco Bushcraft -- Thank you for such an amazing and informative video. I shall practice on my own this weekend. If I may ask, what type of hatchet is that? Take care. -Phil
I see my post was removed, I only wanted to let your viewers know where they could buy fatwood to practice with when it is not available in there area?? Local hardware store as not all places have the resource???

Thanks my friend! Still have the piece you sent
@ochocobushcraft1742 good deal I was wondering about that lol, I thought you might want to try some from my local pine lol. 👍

Glad it was helpful. Would enjoy hearing back when you find and use your first one.

It is amazing how many people I have talked to that don't know where to get the Atwood or even what it is!
Same here. People who've worked out in the Ochocos logging have had no idea it was in the root wads.
Another fine video, Dan. I enjoyed it as always… thank you
Fat wood is amazing, it is my go to hands down. Awesome vid! I hope alot of ppl take that advice to heart, it really can save a person's life.
Thank you!
Dan, I am really enjoying this series! No offense intended, but much better content than gear reviews. Thank you!
Hard to find FatWood here but lots of birch bark. Great video
Birch bark definitely is a great resource too.

I went out this morning and found a 7' Douglas fir stump. Grabbed enough fatwood for a while 😂
Awesome!

Must have been youtube? Sorry, I never saw the post.
@@ochocobushcraft1742 I kind of figured that I put a direct link to Lowes Hardware to the fat wood. Great posts keep up the great work!!
