My grandfather made his living as a trapper/bushcrafter, he lived off the land , and would come back for summer season to sell his pelts and other wares he would collect, he did he for 63 years... He started in the same year as he met my grand mother, when she died (God bless her heart), he became overtaken by depression, he stopped the lifestyle and at age 81, he came to live with me on my homestead, he developed Alzheimer's and he died exactly ten years later, he loved my grandma more than anything in the world and she did he, I loved that man, he and my father, my uncles and other relatives and friends imparted their knowledge on me, it made me who I am today, and for that I thank him, by the way if you are did the math on his age when he started and you we're wondering why he was 16 when he went into the woods to be a logger (at first), it's because his father faked his birth certificate to make him look 2 years older (I forget how), but his father did it so he could join the navy early, plus he worked my grandpa like a slave since age 4, so my grandpa ran away to be a logger for a little more than 5 years (because his birth certificate was fraudulent he was able to join at 16). after those five years he went exclusively into bushcraft and survival/homesteading, he is my biggest mentor and role model and I will always respect him more than anyone, I just wish he could have been around to impart more of his endless knowledge on me, he always remembered the old days until the end though, he could clearly remember in detail his techniques and his tips from his early days, im grateful his Alzheimer's never took that from him. While I wrote this, i teared up a bit, I won't lie. Liam h

I love Mors' videos and have the upmost respect for him as a true bushcrafter, educator, and person. He is so knowledgeable about bushcraft ways in the Boreal Forest, However, I wish someone from Karamat or what ever would answer some of the questions people ask regarding his many videos. There always seem to be so many unanswered questions attached to each video. Just a thought and in no way meant to degrade Mors, his videos, or his knowledge. He is truly a treasure.

Joe b I think a lot of people would find answers if they read Mors' book. Or if they read some Kephart, DC Beards, Ray Mears, or other well known outdoor authors.

Interesting video, but I would have liked to see a close-up on the tools when Mors talks about them. It's hard to see what they exactly look like on this distance.

A lot of comments on multitools. Multitools are not long term use. These tools have specific tasks that dictates they will have a longer life than something with multiple uses being spent multiple ways. And at a job site you are not using a leatherman for cutting electrical wires, nor using it as a box knife to remove the metal tabs in a stock light to insert wires. Multitools have their place, but when you are crafting constantly, you want the specific 1 piece fixed handle tool to do it.

Im curious on mors views on the multitool. Certainly the meat n potatoes are the pliers but theyre not nearly as robust a set as an old fashioned big pair.
@Roarmeister210 жыл бұрын
I've no problem with Mors. In fact, he's one of my heroes and I was at Karamat's school with Mors. You misinterpreted my comment to you as a negative on Mors. The tools that he was illustrating may very well be perfect at a base camp but together would be too heavy for travelling. The problem I have is with that quotation especially when misapplied to this context.

Mmmm, sounds like a decent multi-tool would cover off most of those individual tools?

Google translate helps us to understand your polish. I believe Mors still understands polish. We are glad you like the channel.

Trevor Page I wonder if a machinist's scrapper might work if reground. As for the gimlet, good ones aren't made any more. It took many years looking to find one in good enough condition. Don't be affraid to make some of the tools.

It's like comparing a pocket knife to a fixed blade. I carry a multi-tool on me (and a pocket knife lol) but I have pliers in my tool bag for the heavy work. I have snapped and bent handles on pliers from over torquing them... I'd hate to see what I'd do to a multi-tool if I were to really bear down on it. lol That being said, I carry a multi-tool because it does most of what I need to do, so it is a convenience. If I need something bigger I know where the tools are in my house, my work, and in my truck. If I were to be away from those areas intentionally for an extended period of time, you better believe I'd want real pliers, even if it was just a simple slip-joint or channel lock.

If you mean multi-tools as in leathermans. I have never needed or wanted one as they aren't very durable. A genuine swiss army knife for very light tasks perhaps.

I find that people who quote that dumb phrase tend to lose more tools than those who don't.
