I forgot to add that sometimes I'll take the Skrama 240 over the axe, and also my sawyer squeeze!

Good list! I'm a contact lens wearer as well. Close to blind without them. I also carry an old pair of glasses in my pack, just in case. Along with spare lenses. I almost always have some germ gel to use after I wash my hands as well as possible. As you know, be sure and let that stuff totally dry before sticking your finger in your eye to take out your lens! I wear the Air Optics, so I don't have to remove my lenes at night, although I usually do. I wouldn't if I was spending an unexpected night in the woods. I bought some one inch wide bright orange nylon straping from the fabric store. Then I took a soldering iron and melted a hole near one tip. Then I threaded about 6 inches of the nylon strap onto my key ring. The idea is that if I ever drop my keys in the woods, they'll be easier to find. I know of guys who had to hitch a ride to town to get their spare set of keys. I want to be able to find mine if I do drop them. The bonus is that they are very easy to find around the house as well. Harbor Freight sells a pick like yours with about a 16 inch removable handle. In case anyone is looking. In my area, I'd probably opt for a shovel, but a pick is sure handy at times. I guess that it would depend on my plans. I doubt that I'd carry either in a day pack, although I do have a shovel in my SUV. Day in, day out, a machete is often very helpful where I'm at. I often carry a 14 or 16 inch machete instead of an ax in my pack. Although, an 18-20 machete is much better if you are going into the woods to work on trails or large projects. Maybe I over looked it in your video, but I usually carry a flashlight and often a headlamp. No need for bear spray, but most folks I know carry a handgun for a lot of reasons. I imagine the basement dwellers at YT frown on you showing that. Your area looks very nice. Mine, the TX Gulf Coast, is full of briars, undergrowth and hardwoods, with lots of stickers and thorns. We need bug spray 12 months a year, plus sun screen, although it does get pretty cold sometimes. There is a lot of public land in the east part of the state, but little elsewhere. So most folks lease the hunting and camping rights to private ranches. It's an expense, but you get exclusive use of the land, and you can hunt deer in season, plus small game and wild hogs year round. But that limits you to a few dozen to a few hundred acres usually. Maybe a few thousand acres if you are lucky. Granted this is a day pack. But do you have the means to purify more drinking water, other than boiling it? If I were you, I'd throw in a spare pair of wool socks and some TP in a waterproof bag.

Dave, It's funny but Husqvarna has Hultafors making their own branded versions of this axe(Camping axe) as well as the Abt (Multi Purpose Axe) for a ton less money. A little finishing work on the blade and handle saves one a buttload of money. Great video bud!

Yes, it depends on what I'm doing that day and how far I'll be hiking. My equivalent sized rucksack is either a Highlander Forces 35 or a German army surplus mountain rucksack I've modernised over time. I like the Jakarri Puukos, Hultafors GKs/OK4s, Mora 2000/Kansbol. Lots of different traditional folders. My hatchet was made in Italy a long time ago, have no idea who made it. It's a nice chunk of steel though. have a titanium water bottle. My possibles pouch is an old pencil case. I stuck with the Bahco Laplander but I might get one of the ones with the bigger teeth on the blade.

Hi Dave, Thanks for a well-thought out video! It is refreshing to view someone's selections that mirror one's own. Your logic is so like mine. Within the logic, there is room for individual choices and so I thought it might be ok if I shared mine with you, just for the hell of it! ;-) Firstly, I tend to consider a "heavy carry" option, and a "light mcarry" option' Heavy carry: No axe! Other than splitting logs, I see no tasks needing an axe - even with splitting this can be done with wedges. Large knife: here my Cold Steel Trail Master (San Mai III version) reigns supreme. This will do most of the heavy work that might be needed. I'd carry this attached to the pack. Belt knife: Victorinox Venture Pro (full kit). This versatile knife covers all the mid-range work not requiring so much bulk, and needed some detail work. Pocket knife: bit of a dilemma here - choosing between two V'nox knives would depend on circumstances: Ranger Grip 79 and Hercules. I would have both available prior to setting out before choosing. Saw: I'd have either the Silky Gomboy, or, if lots of sawing is anticipated, I'd consider a Bigboy. However, there would ALWAYS be a Silky in the pack. Light carry: Belt knife: here I'd go with the Cold Steel SRK (CPM 3V, in sabre grind option). This is versatile and big enough for many of the expected lighter tasks. Carried on the belt. Pocket knife: here my trusty V'nox Swiss Champ in a belt pouch. I've used it for decades and it's amazing. Note: I will always include a small V'nox paring knife, or two, or three, or ....... ! They are so small and dainty and weigh 21 grams so no burden at all, but oh so handy. Kept in the cooking kit somewhere with another in the pack in case. :-) I'd love to hear what you think of my choices! Cheers mate.

Very cool! thanks for sharing what you bring. I would love to have a go with you trail master that is a cool knife I have yet to handle. My large knife of choice is the Terava skrama 240. I think it is an either or between the axe and large knife with both having pros and cons. Otherwise the foundations are very similar to me with just different models of knives than what I carry. All the choices you have are good ones, I definitely wish I had an SRK in 3V! cheers thanks for watching

Really cool🙂 it’s cool to see what people bring on the other side of the continent lol. They are surprisingly similar in most ways. I guess you have cold humidity and I have hot humidity. There are loads of fatwood here though so fire is not really a problem. Plus it’s really hot so I don’t start one unless the bugs are bad or I have to cook something. I don’t do any shelter builds. I bring a hammock. The ground moves at night and day with things you do not want to bite you lol. I wish I could do some winter camping. We don’t get any snow. Are the bugs better when there is snow? I could make a video of my load out and send it to you if you want🙂 Thanks for sharing!😀😀😀😀

5:05 there is never a reason to not bring a rescue blanket tbh.. depending on your location i think it should be at least. I volunteer in searches in the mountains here and more often then not those small blankets that weight almost nothing make the diffrence between finding a body of someone that got aways with it.. Put the blanket in your pocket and you wont even notice them but as soon as sh.. hits the fan you will be happy (and warm) to have one

Gerber prodigy. Okc sp7. Okc rat 1. 9mm pistol. 2 mags. Snax. 3 bottles water. Gun tool and cleaning kit in a mag pouch. Bic lighter. Phone. Watch. Paracord survival bracelet. I consider one day from sunupish to sundownish otherwise its an overnight and my load would change drastically. And i would dress heavy with consideration to environment and time of year. I also carry a man purse i made from old cargo pants to carry snax water and other smallish items that i dont put in pockets or wear on my belt.
