A few questions:
1. Who made the tarp?
Tschum in Germany https://tschum.de/en/tarp156x300.html
2. What type of axe are you using?
Karelian axe. Homemade - 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?
A classic nordic knife, offen referred to by the finnish name "Puukko". Homemade - spring steel and birch burl handle. Here is how I made it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKF7oDsugYc&t=713s
4. How long does it take to bake potatoes like that in the campfire goals?
About 30 minutes.
5. 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).
6. What is you're kuksa/drinking cop made from?
Birch burl. Homemade.
7. Can I buy an axe, knife etc. from you?
No.
8. Do you hunt?
No - all food is from a local store. I only fish.
9. What did you use for making the fire?
Ferro rod and feather stiks.
10. What roots did you use as cord?
Spruce roots. Relatively strong and flexible when fresh/wet.
11. Why make the walls?
Shelter from wind and reflects heat and light.
12. What if I have a question that is not included in this video description?
Consider leaving a comment - I read all comments made within the first few days of a new uploade.
