Josh - Thank you for being so honest and realistic with what you bring to these videos. There are too many posers out there that are just trying to cash in on the "prepper" mentality. You offer real advice and real knowledge for real scenarios one might encounter in a survival situation. Please don't ever stop passing on the knowledge!

You can use the stalks of weeds for an iron skillet scrubber. 🍳 Bind them together about wrist width, cut them off evenly on each end and scrub away.

Definitely a good idea to experiment with whatever grows in your particular area. I don't know the names of any of it but I'd picked a few varieties of grasses, seed heads, etc. to play with. One I thought would burst into flame barely burned at all, another I thought too coarse, only suitable for the middle or outer part of the bundle is actually what caught and burned great! Awesome piece of ground you have there to live and play on!

Joshua... thank you for your service and for providing a really great channel. I appreciate all of the items you present to us for our tool kit. A reliable fire kit is one of the most important tools to have along with practice to reliably make a fire with each. Really appreciate all you are doing here...

Another plant you can use for dental stuff is echinacia (black samson, purple cone flower etc). Chew on the roots or seeds and your mouth will go numb. The root has a somewhat salty flavor. Echinacia also helps the immune system so I guess its a pretty helpful plant all around.

Nettle as tinder Collect nettle. Remove leaves, leaving only the stem. Remove the outer sheath from the stem. Let the inside of the stem dry for a good two hours. That dried inner part of the nettle stalk is fantastic tinder. (I used a translate app from Dutch to English) ====== Orriginal Dutch text Brandnetel als tondel Verzamel brandnetel. Verwijder bladeren en houd alleen de steel over. Verwijder het buitenomhulzel van de steel. Laat het binnenste van de steel een goeie twee uur drogen. Dat gedroogde deel van de steel is een fantastische tondel.

That is a great video on the material you should look for when in the woods and I live in Arkansas where we have plenty of pine and cedar and we can use the material from dead trees to make fires and to keep them going and we have the weed which you gathered to make a bird's nest from also. Thanks for sharing this tip with all of us.

Excellent information. I have been using dried Lantana as mostly fine material to start the woodstove. The technique you showed of putting things on at angles works like a champ. In just a few seconds the fire sounds like a rocket stove. As of recent it haa been far too dry in my area to start outdoor fires. So I take the practice where I can.

Josh, Love your videos and will be purchasing your book next month. I love my fat wood, I have about 50lbs of it stored at home. Closet smells awesome by the way. However, you have inspired me to use the flint and steel. Another You Tube fella, Tom, from Cimberer Bushcraft uses flint and steel predominately. However, your videos are precise, easy to follow, and are filled with reason. I am looking forward to reading your book. My question is besides grasses, and the good ole birch bark and fat wood, and what other things you have shown are there other alternatives in materials, natural, to use in making a birds nest. I am from upstate New York and live in the foothills of them. However, I come across pine needles and leaves much easier than dried grasses. What about, pine needles, pine cones, dried leaf litter or waxed jute or hemp rope in my fire kit in constructing a birds nest. Also, I was looking to see if you could show us how to find flint or chert in making our own flints? And can flint be found in New York or will I be spending a lot of time searching, kinda like for chaga. Haven't found that one yet. But I will be looking in those hornbeams for sure. The Lamborghini of firewood. Thanks Josh and thank you for serving our country.

Question for clarification. Any wood can be cooked into charcoal inside a closed container. Punk wood has most of the organic compounds removed through decomposition, and cooks the fastest. Dry dead wood will still become charcoal, it just takes a bit longer in the fire. Based on my informal testing, the resulting chard material seems to behave the same when hit with a spark. Is there any reason to avoid charing dry wood if punk wood is not readily at hand?

Hey Josh, I just had a question pop into my noggin'. In playing with the primitive side of things, have you ever tried making char wood buck naked? I mean just you and ma nature without any kind of tin or can or modern contrivance? I have a few ideas that I'm going to have to try but if you have a tried and true method already, I for one would love to see it.

Listen, I have to thank you and to apologize also. Your information is some of the best I have seen on the internet. My wife and I are certified trainers with our State Fish and Wild Life Department. we hold emergency survival classes for young hunters. We’ve used everybody from Dave Canterbury to other famous survival trainers. But, I have passed by your videos several times until today (probably, if I’m honest, I may have passed you by earlier because your beard is so much better than mine - Ha!) But, I’m serious. Some of your stuff is going to be incorporate into what we teach because it is very practical, very teachable, and it contains enough information so students will understand the principles from start to finish with everything they need. We will recommend them to visit your channel and website because, after seeing several of your videos, I have to say, You are one of the best survival teachers out there. Keep up the GREA job you’re doing!

Honest question here. I really want to purchase your book, however, upon reading reviews on Amazon there are a lot of reviews that mention that the book was not edited very well and that there are entire pages missing. Are these real issues with every book and/or are the issues going to be resolved at any time? I love your content, but want to make sure I am spending my money wisely.

@GrayBeardedGreenBeret 2 жыл бұрын

Those reviews were unfounded. The book was professionally edited by an entire team of editors, proofread by me afterwards. There were about 12-15 books sold from Amazon that had misprinted or misplaced pages. Those were all gone probably 6 months ago and were all replaced as people notified us. Unfortunately, a few people just ran to Amazon to do a negative review rather than letting us know and getting the book replaced. Some complained about black and white pictures, but that was done at the behest of international publishing preferences. I’d say maybe 10 out of 400 plus images ended up being too dark, but many of those don’t take away from the information. They are taken outdoors with varying light conditions, not a studio.
