Basic bread (flower and yeast) _________________ A few questions: 1. Who made the tent? Tschum 2P SOSWA (made in Germany by a small family company) https://tschum.de/en/Tschum-2P-SOSWA.html 2. What type of axe are you using? Weight? Dimensions? Homemade Karelian axe - C45 steel and ash handle. 900 grams (including the handle), 8cm cutting edge, 55cm handle, 16.5cm from pole to cutting edge. 3. What type of knife are you using? Homemade. A classic nordic knife, offen referred to by the finnish name "Puukko". Spring steel and birch burl handle. Here is how I made it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKF7oDsugYc 4. What is you're kuksa/drinking cop made from? Birch burl. Homemade. 5. Can I buy an axe, knife etc. from you? No. 6. Do you hunt? No - all food is from a local store. I only fish. 7. Why do you sometimes hit with the side of the axe instead of the poll? Keeps the cutting edge away from you're face and the larger surface area makes you less likely to miss. I usually only use the side of the axe in the beginning (when things can be unstable and or I don't need to hit hard). 8. How long does it take to make a roast over a campfire like that? 2-3 hours. 9. What sound is that doing the afternoon/night? Night owl and red deer stags rut call (the red deer mating season lasts most of september and october). 10. What do you use to light the fires? Ferro rod and fatwood (pine wood with a lot of resin). _________________ Some of the gear used in the video: Tent = Tschum schum 2P SOSWA Axe and knife = homemade Boots = Jörnkängan Antifrys Pants = Klättermusen Gere 2.0 Wool base layer = Aclima Granddad shirt Sweater = Devold Svalbard Backpack = Eberlestock Mainframe f1 Reindeer skin = unknown from Sapmi Sleeping bag = Carinthia Defence 4 Kettle = Eagle 1.5L Pot = Pathfinder bushpot 1.8L (modified) Ferro rod = Cuma Gear 153mm _________________ Video gear: Nikon Z30 Nikon Z 40mm 2 Nikon Z 50-250mm 4.5-6.3 Røde videomic NTG Macbook 2011 iMovie
