I head into the woods to learn basic beginner bushcraft tips from Bushcraft & Survival instructor Paul Kirtley. This long, informative video goes through a number of different techniques on how to use an axe, a knife, setup camp and light a fire. This video covers some very useful skills that can help to enhance your knowledge of Bushcraft and potentially help you in a survival situation. Myself and Paul also setup a camping spot to do an overnight. I opt for a hammock and tarp setup, as the bugs are still around. Paul goes for a ground sleeping setup with tarp overhead.

Notice how when he's carring the bare-blade axe away from where he cut down that dead standing bole, he's carrying the cutting edge angled *away* from his body. If he trips and stumbles, at most he'll get a bruise or minor cut from the axe, but the blade itself won't lodge into his body unless he fumbles it completely around. It's a subtle but important safety tip.

Wow wow wow, I am really blown away about how much I just learned for life. Your teaching is sooo calm, respectful and polite, so relaxing to watch. Now its about me keeping myself in practice. Thank you so much Paul! This is how KZfaq should be. Best 1:30h in my life for learning really important stuff and technique for real life. Great tipps and tricks too. I really appreciate your attention to safety and the amount of safety advise you gave, its just the most important thing outdoors. Keep it up, wish you all the best!

Would love to have a Video from my father back in the 90's. He managed to chop locks twohanded (with two axes) while standing on Top of the pile. He was just doing it for the Show, but he had it. He was a awesome craftsman with outstanding Skills. It's a shame he passed with only 53 years back in 2009. Love your Videos with You and your Dad. Stay save and healthy Greetings from Germany

Paul is awesome~ Very informative. I just bought a 20" Helco Werk axe, but haven't used it until I learn how to use it safely. Paul was the very person to demonstrate the proper use of it. Thanks so much for sharing!

Your knowledge is incredible, do you have a video on sharpening knives? I’ve always had a problem getting a sharp blade on my knives.

Me too. What do you use? I fluctuate between a spinny dremel thing and an abrasive knife sharpening rod thing. As you can obviously see I know nothing 😅

I bought one of Paul’s book and took it on holiday to exmoor glad I did - Best book I ever bought by far . As for this vlog’s length it was not long enough for me ... it’s like watching a zen master at work

In Australia we spin the billy. You hold the billy with a locked, fully extended arm as Paul was doing at the end of each "drop" but you spin your arm a full 360 degrees using centrifugal force to keep the water in the billy. Does a similar job to this Norwegian drop technique. Also, I know this is a 3 years old video but this was fantastically detailed and helpful Thanks Mike and Paul.

Dropping the coffee? Here in the USA when we make "cowboy" coffee it works well to just sprinkle some cold water on the top and no problem with the grounds settling.

Noticed that one advantage of the technique of the horizontal limb splitting technique you didn't mention is when the axe/hatchet is embedded in the splitting block, using that to support the blade while you twist the wood releaves almost all the sideways stress on the handle because the blade is being supported by the chopping block instead of your hand and the handle when twisting the limb to open it.

Brilliant video, many many thanks to you and Paul for the time and effort involved in bringing us the video. Proving that you're never too old to learn, after thirty plus years of practicing woodlore, or bushcraft, I've picked up a couple of extra tips that will save me time and effort in the future. I've never tried firestarting with just a pole and board, but massive respect for getting it going so quickly. The first time I tried bow drilling it took me considerably longer, which speaks a lot to Paul's tips and tricks, as in so many things, both bushcraft and otherwise, technique is everything! The effortless splitting from some very awkward angles speaks loudly that Paul has technique and practice to make it a sure thing when most of us would struggle. I'm not given to envy, but Paul has one of the best jobs going, from my perspective! You earned a new subscriber with this video, and I in turn gain from your content. This is the core of what KZfaq should be, if only there were quality sources of information like your channel.

Thank you for this. I’ve neveer been able to split wood before, but this video showed me how to do it confidently and safely. I’ve actually split a small batch yesterday, and I felt and looked like I knew what I was doing.

I did work full time with Ray for a number of years. I guess some of his style rubs off. Plus there is a certain way of efficiently getting this material across. Glad you liked the vid.

This is one of the best ask safety managers I’ve seen in a long time. Very helpful I’ve already visualize using it with my grandson. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. At first it seemed too long but then it takes as I watched it it didn’t seem to be long enough. I enjoyed it very much.

I mean no offence at all here mate but these videos suit you better than the fishing side and your passion shows. I am a mad carp angler and have always loved the outdoors so bushcraft and out doors is a second love I have so now with you here and your dad I have all the info and entertainment I need. Top video mate 👍👍
