Black Hat Bushcraft - Great knife skills & instruction. You sir, are an A-1 Bush crafter! Thanks for the video and the teaching. You have my subscription and I’ll be looking for a lot more.

Me too - I'm a couple of videos in, and glad Corporal gave us the nudge to check out the channel! :)

Thank you so much for those kind words! I truly appreciate that! Take care.

Thank you so much Jim! I appreciate your kind words and support! I look forward to your comments on every video honestly. You never know, one of these days we just might get to share a campfire together! Take care my friend.

Thank you so much for your interest and for your time and kind words my friend! I appreciate you tuning in. Take care.

Thank you so much for tuning in!

It was great meeting you too brother! I appreciate your interest to tune in and I hope to see you back out for another class or event sometime soon! Tell Rueben I said hello as well! If you guys are on FB, make sure to join the Pathfinder Learning Center to stay connected and continue sharing knowledge daily. Take care buddy!

I will look into it, I am going to the bushcraft class in October at the pathfinder school.

Thank you Will! I appreciate you tuning in and hope you will get the opportunity to get out there and whittle up some tools you can use by the fire. Enjoy my friend and take care.

Thank you so much Michael! I appreciate you taking the time to tune in. I have been using chopsticks on occasion since childhood myself. I learned early on how to use them. I always enjoy using them. I have always wanted to go to Korea. I know their culture very well and even a small amount of Korean language. I love the food also! Take care.

@@blackhatbushcraft well praise God, hopefully you'll find a way to make it back over there

Definitely! It makes for good practice. If you can do fine carving with a less than ideal tool, you know you will be capable with a smaller and more nimble blade. Take care.

Thank you so much for your time and kind words!

I have also used this technique for wood projects as well Scott and it works very well. Certain woods seem to respond better than others but it is a good technique for sure. Thank you for taking the time to tune in and share!

A sharp spine will also do the trick :) Liked the video!

Glad you enjoyed this Terry! Thank you for tuning in. Take care.

Thank you so much for taking the time to tune in my friend!

Thank you so much Carlos! I appreciate you tuning and and sharing a kind word! I know you understand and appreciate a good WC Knife :) There is something special about them for sure. Take care brother!

Thank you so much Michael! I appreciate you tuning in and sharing a kind word! Take care my friend.

@@blackhatbushcraft Is always a pleasure watching your videos...I wish you many blessings to you and your loved ones as well. Looking forward for that FBM!

Thank you so much Brian! I appreciate you taking the time to tune in!

Thank you so much my friend!

Thank you so much Dave! I appreciate you taking the time to tune in!

Thank you so much for the kind words! I appreciate you tuning in. WC Knives are outstanding designs and a pleasure to use for these types of tasks. I have a review video on the Jr Woodsman I was using if you just wanted to learn more on it. Thanks again and take care.

Thank you so much for letting me know Danny! I just fixed the link and the shirt is indeed up there. It is honestly my favorite shirt! It is the Helikon Tex Defender long sleeve. It comes in several colors as well. Check that link and let me know if you have any questions.

Olive oil, coconut oil, anything like that but you'll have to keep doing it. I've used wax mixtures in the past, works ok but applying oil is easier. There's a food safe varnish that works great but some people shy away from stuff like that.

@@asmith7876 Thank you that helps a lot!

Thank you so much brother! I am really enjoying the knife. It is very unique and different from any other "bushcraft" type knife I have used. For a small knife, it is very versatile and paired with a small wildlife hatchet, I have not felt unprepared. It does a great job with the food prep as well! I like your nickname, LARK:) It seems to be serving you well on the river down there! Take care brother!

I agree completely. I do just for the enjoyment of crafting and then using something that I made for myself. I appreciate you tuning in and commenting!

The 2 time stamps you refer to were me doing 2 different functions and different areas in the project. Apples and oranges so to speak. I am quite aware of knife safety. Draw cutting is VERY safe and if you watch experts of carving, you will see it is a VERY used and effective technique. You are able see your work much better on the draw. I demonstrate multiple techniques in this video and none of them are incorrect. Do what works for you and I will continue to do the same. I spend a lot of time with a knife in my hand. i have an excellent track record for safety.
