I'm just as impressed by this guy's life plan. Went to college, joined the Army as an Officer, retired a Col. at around 45, probably gets a crazy pension, and now he makes rad walking sticks.
@@adamsmith3413 From what I can tell it's currently like $50k a year for life for a colonel, plus free medical, 10% discounts on just about everything, cheap VA loans, etc. Not too shabby for passive income, especially if in a state with low cost of living and/or no/low state income tax . Work part time making another $25-30k doing something you like and life is good.
Jim is about one of the nicest human being I've ever met. A true badass but he'll never gloat about is accomplishments. His survival stick is the really deal!
Col. Callahan, thank you for your service to our nation! Your walking sticks are beautiful, and a BARGAIN at $50. It's wonderful that you are sharing some of your survival and tracking knowledge with us. I'm trying to learn these things in my senior years... you've inspired me!
Finally something affordable. Looks like this guy put his heart into making these products. I would buy one in a heart beat. True American for his workmanship alone..,
Always intrigues me how retired US officers and NCO's ramp up so much appreciation for their service,yet in the UK they come and go with hardly any thanks or gratitude for all they have done,after a lifetime of putting their Country first,before everything,putting their life at risk,and in many cases coming home injured. You guys in the US have your priorities right when it comes to showing your appreciation. Something sadly lacking in my country. God Bless America!
Col Jim Callahan Thank you for service. My son who is in the Army in Sear Vista. Bought me the survival stick for Christmas from you. I love the stick it's a great Idea
Thank-you Col. for your Service! Now, prices are remarkable for something that an Army Ranger not only created but experiences of his had to inspire! Best to ya',,,,!
Those are all nice items to have with you when camping out and the walking sticks are the best for defense and I have one plain walking stick which I use to carry with me in the forest.
Definitely affordable. If some big camping accessories company was making this, they'd sell it for double the price. $50 is a steal for what you can get out of it.
mixflip How is the structure of the stick? Just a scenario off the top of my head... I'm hiking some idiot decides to assualt me could it function as a battlestaff or spear?
Bass Addiction its a solid stick except for the top where the gear is hidden. You could use it to create distance in a confrontation for sure. And if you have time yyoy can lash a blade to the end and make a spear.
I love this walking stick. I have never seen anything like it. the price has changed but it's still very reasonable. Great job Mr. Callahan. Thank you.
Served in the third of the 504 at Fort Bragg parachute Infantry. Really enjoyed your bit on the walking sticks. Always nice to listen to another patriotic American. God bless and keep you.
I've been working on basic walking sticks of my own for about two months. Amazed at how hard it is to find a straight hardwood branch and how difficult it is to get one to straighten out. For $50 I would by a Moses pole in a heartbeat!
Matztertaler, All of his sticks are made of wood and the version with the witness marks to aid in tracking, to which he drills out only one end to a specific depth to contain the survival tools. So, the short answer is, "No" he isn't using bamboo for his sticks. As tough as bamboo is, I doubt it would have the life expectancy of a hardwood or whatever is being used and seen in this video. A good friend of mine (who passed away 2 Christmases ago) bought me one of these as a gift. He also gave me a broadhead and the attachment to make a spear or gigging tool but it seems to be fairly fragile and easily bent. That said, I'd be VERY leery and cautious about using it for casual hunting out of concern of breaking it. If there was a MUCH (!!) stronger method of attaching a broadhead or other impaling tool (outside of the slip-on knife shown) it would be that much more effective and helpful. However, lashing a quality knife to the end WOULD make an effective stand-off tool or weapon. Used with caution and keeping the fragile nature of the broadhead attachment method in mind, this does have some utility and purpose, though. All in all not a bad tool to have on hand in the field as an adjunct to a bigger survival kit.
Thanks for video. I was a medic at the 6th RTB in FL and made my own true Ranger Walking Stick. I still remember going into yellow river swamp and cutting 4 saplings to to let soak & cure. I lost it when my house was robbed some years back and always wanted another one.
I was hiking Mt Charleston few weeks back when I remembered Mixflips video about this stick. Searched for video again and placed order. Received my stick the other day. Great quality and craftsmanship. Will be hiking this weekend and put it to use. Even ordered a thumper defense stick from Col. Jim Callahan.
i was just getting ready to say that when i saw your comment. I think he should include a bag ( compressed nylon or something to hold the stuff in once you opened it. I think i am pretty organized but keeping all of that stuff together would be a nightmare.
All these are very authentic and useful gadgets!! I hope someday, I will make one for a good friend, who usually goes trekking into jungles and mountains...
I recently bought one for my 21 year old son who is a hiking freak on his spare time, enjoys Zion and goes a few times a year. I’d like to say that Jim Callahan is beyond legit and makes a quality product that will last a lifetime. I gifted my son the medium black with red markings and grey para cord. He digs it through and through. I highly recommend Jim’s products.
I see so many stupid and useless "survival tools" and multi tools that look cool but are essentially pointless or useless but this is actually a good idea.
avalon449 lol he said he is waiting until he retires from his current job before he makes a website. He said he does this for fun and its already a lot to manage even with just using word of mouth and emails.
Whether his marketing techniques are completely valid or not isn't the point here. The point of this video isn't about him; this is about YOUR OWN survival. Regardless of what quality it is, the survival gear you have with you is always superior to the gear you you left behind. I'll gladly take this tricked out walking stick with me and you guys who don't want one can come along too. When the chips are down in a genuine survival situation you will be begging to use the survival gear and the walking stick! This is actually a very cleverly designed walking stick with a lot of novel features such as the arrowhead insert, a taper for mounting a bayonet, etc. Also, I like the idea of adding a bullet holder strip down the side of the key chain fob. I'll be adding that to the next ones I make. Jim, here's an idea to consider. Feel free to use it. On my fobs I place a good carabiner on both ends. They are far more useful than a key ring in a survival situation. The whistle can still go on the lower carabiner. The top carabiner can snap on a belt, back pack, or any other convenient spot. Put the key ring part on a simple lanyard and sell it with the fob, giving the option to attach the lanyard to the fob for neck wear when desired. It would be a far better and more versatile arrangement. Best of luck in your business!
I prefer traditional look stained hard woods in a stick and less visual paracord but more vintage look leather in a flatsap club. But it's good to see a hobby turned in to a part time business with a can do attitude.
So many things to say, but I'll keep it short. My first thought was "how does he sell these so cheap?" The materials must add up to a fair cost, but then his labour would take a while too, and then he has to travel and spend time selling. This looks like a truly great product at a ridiculously low price. I may be wrong about the pricing as I'm in Australia, so your dollar value may be a lot different. This man is a decent person and trying to keep active and involved in society, and I believe a role model for any kids. Here's a suggestion for you mate, make an attachment like a noose or hook so the pole can reach things, like high hanging fruit or a fish just out of reach as examples. Power to you and best wishes.
Very nice stuff sir..I'm an army vet also and am very impressed by how well you've engineered your walking sticks and how much stuff you incorporate into them....( must have came from how much stuff you learn to put in a duffle bag in the army) now as a knife maker we both make about the same wages! Good job sir!
True, but I suspect he is doing this as a hobby and sideline for a few dollars and doesn't want to go big. Bet you someone or a business copies and mass markets his ideas. Thing is, he has the handmade and original models which I and others appreciate over made in China junk.
My dad is a former green beret and is always out on very long hikes with only his dog. I think this would be a really cool gift for him! Although he doesn't normally use a hiking stick, but this might be a good idea to take with him.
Colonel Callahan, I love the features you've built into your walking sticks and your other products. A couple questions: Do your walking sticks have any sort of built-in mount at the lower end of the stick, to bolt or lash a Y- or L-shaped metal tool to be used for pinning down snakes or critters which are caught in traps or snares, knock fruit, nuts or fire making materials out of a tree, as a rest for glassing or shooting etc? Also, are any of your sticks built six feet or longer? I ask this because I think anything intended to use as a spear or long-handled gouging weapon should be a least 8-10 inches longer that the height of its user, to make it as difficult as possible to land on the sharp end of the tool if a person loses their balance and falls to the ground.
Thank you for your service sir... I've been involved with search & rescue and survival training since the early eighties in Maine and can verify that all of the gear you have included with this stick is fantastic and life saving. Pay no mind to the negative comments from these millennial ass whistles who's idea of survival is no room service from 2 - 6 am and running out of mountain dew while playing on thier fucking xboxes. Keep up the great work and thanks again for your service.
jjoeycuda So you're saying that it doesn't count if you've witnessed the horrors of a beach landing in Normandy or at Iwo Jima, fighting in the jungles of Vietnam, and/or the desserts of Iraq, and taking parts in bloody conflicts in shitty countries with weird names no one can find on a map --- if it happened playing CoD, MoH, Battlefield, Conflict, SOCOM, Full Spectrum Warrior etc....? Well that's harsh! LMAO
I'm going to email him and order $100 worth of stuff. Not that I really need it, I'm in Alaska and have all the knowledge but love to help my brothers that have protected this country.
I've been thinking about my gear set and thought i had a brand new idea when i thought about putting kit inside a walking stick. someone beat me to it, but it's a great idea. I'll still make my own and personalize my own kit but still, fantastic someone sells them ready made
You always find those interesting booths at the shows you attend Good eye Ps still haven't won that dam powerball not giving up you never know.......A promise is a promise
COL. You should consider putting a few screw eyes in with your survival items, I have found these to be very useful, also some Bobby pins and a small amount of tinsel or flash, maybe a few small brass beads for the fish hooks. All are very light and you would never feel the difference. There are so many other very light small items that can come in very handy. I was a search and rescue scuba diver for many years and a K9 search and rescue member. Great video.
Dr. Pillowjumper yeah!! Like Robert Rogers and his raid against the abanaki Indians a in at Francis.....oh yes, Rogers killed a woman and young boy to eat when he was running away from the French and Indians. Go rangers!!
"If stride is longer I'm losing shorter I'm catching up to him"! Lol! I love guys who say silly stuff like this. Very obvious not much training in man tracking or prim tech.
yeah, you can use it to push off wild dogs or javelina lmfao...A wild animal isn't going to give a fuck about that stick. you better have a rifle! for the love of Christ, get a back pack with some real gear, and consider getting some bug juice and a roll of toilet paper.
8:00 Brings to mind the WW2 silver dollar/dollars option sewn in behind the paraglide patches on my unit's garrison cap. The weight of the coin/coins used as a blackjack, could help get you out of a 'Fayettville Combat Alley Scrap' with marines, or even buy your way back to Bragg when you've run out of folding cash.

Very ingenious way of keeping everything together, plus it helps you walk and maybe even defend yourself..
Just received my survival baton. Great product and Jim was great to work with!! Highly recommend.
Jim sounds like the sort of guy to sit down over a beer or cup of coffee with and just listen to what he has to say.
Thanks for the video!
Yup, I have 2. Have met Jim a couple of times as I live here in SV. Great Guy, and Great stick. Use it every time I hike.
I like this guys walking sticks. And only $50. Thanks for posting.
that's a really good price for time making too you can't argue at that
I like the extra functionality of this stick which does all these things and still functions as a walking stick!
Great job Col - all the best ideas come from Hoochy Koochy - retired from there - was teaching MI OAC - EBD

Top notch, thanks for the find.
Love the look of his gear. Will definitely save this video to contact him later.
Thank you for introducing Jim Callahan, a very good man.
Walking staff is a difference maker...so many uses
Very cool! That's a lot of capability packed in there and I'd love to support someone who has defended my freedom.
Sharing the hell out of this with all my guys and gals. The scouts would love it all. Great work sir!
I see so many stupid and useless "survival tools" and multi tools that look cool but are essentially pointless or useless but this is actually a good idea.
Amazing canes and gadgets for self-defense! Thanks for sharing.

I never knew I needed something so much, want one for myself , my dad and my daughters
Note to self remember to buy one of these 👍
Wow the knowledge this guy has and the capabilities of his survival stick are insane. I would buy one just to support him.

I didn't know what it meant either lol. I had to google it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soup_to_nuts
I suppose we all have a way to learn something new here.
LOL, it basically means the whole ball of wax!
These are all awesome. He definitely needs a site, with a PayPal checkout, or CC pay method. Really cool.
Tell you what. If i got hurt or lost in the sticks I'd pray to God for that stick.
My dad is a former green beret and is always out on very long hikes with only his dog. I think this would be a really cool gift for him! Although he doesn't normally use a hiking stick, but this might be a good idea to take with him.
Rdeez he makes a super short survival stick as well. It's more like a survival club lol. It's small.
Colonel Callahan, I love the features you've built into your walking sticks and your other products.
A couple questions: Do your walking sticks have any sort of built-in mount at the lower end of the stick, to bolt or lash a Y- or L-shaped metal tool to be used for pinning down snakes or critters which are caught in traps or snares, knock fruit, nuts or fire making materials out of a tree, as a rest for glassing or shooting etc?

50 bucks for the stick is reasonable. I like his items too.
thank you for doing this video it was very informative,and very well done
Please send me a link , I just got out of nursing home months ago . Ty mark
Reminds me of the old BoyScout walking sticks just survivalized. They just had markings, cord, tape, wire, 90deg sighting holes and a hook on the top.

All are very light and you would never feel the difference. There are so many other very light small items that can come in very handy. I was a search and rescue scuba diver for many years and a K9 search and rescue member. Great video.
Rangers lead the way!

Dr. Pillowjumper yeah!! Like Robert Rogers and his raid against the abanaki Indians a in at Francis.....oh yes, Rogers killed a woman and young boy to eat when he was running away from the French and Indians. Go rangers!!

The two holes for the flashlight could have a spike inserted and used as an uphill climbing handle. Light uphill climbing
"If stride is longer I'm losing shorter I'm catching up to him"! Lol! I love guys who say silly stuff like this. Very obvious not much training in man tracking or prim tech.

Yeah you can't tell if you are catching up or falling behind by their stride.
yeah, you can use it to push off wild dogs or javelina lmfao...A wild animal isn't going to give a fuck about that stick. you better have a rifle! for the love of Christ, get a back pack with some real gear, and consider getting some bug juice and a roll of toilet paper.
I thought walking stick right. But this guy has gone over the top with the idea, very impressive.
8:00 Brings to mind the WW2 silver dollar/dollars option sewn in behind the paraglide patches on my unit's garrison cap. The weight of the coin/coins used as a blackjack, could help get you out of a 'Fayettville Combat Alley Scrap' with marines, or even buy your way back to Bragg when you've run out of folding cash.
