    "Down and Dirty" is right. Excellent information, 5/5. Way too much hand gesticulation 1/5. Pretty poor camera coverage, couldn't see half of what you were doing 2/5. Awesome sound quality 5/5. The scripting could be improved, a lot of repetitive statements 2/5. I like your tone and delivery 5/5. I'm now a subscriber and look forward to new and improved videos!

    Thank you for choosing and encouraging these 3. Ranger Survival of Pathfinder recently put out a video choosing blade, container and cordage. His content is great but THAT list was horrible IMHO. He's among the greats but that one was a mistake. I can make cordage way easier than fire. My list in order: Fire Knife Container Cover Cordage Light Cloth

  • @theaveragewoodsman6002

    Agreed. It's much harder to make a usable container or knife off the landscape than it is cordage.
