The title above is our motto for a reason. Most people carry more than enough gear with them when they leave civilization. The problem is they only know how to get 10% of the potential out of what they carry. Cordage is a perfect example. Everyone carries paracord, but very few can tie the proper knots for the job at hand. You don't need to know 50 knots to be proficient. Check out my video here to get you started.
I like to build things without cordage whenever possible by just relying on tight fitting wood joints. It's good fun and a great way to practice your carving skills. In this case, I needed a sawhorse to buck some logs into firewood and decided to make one utilizing techniques out of my book "21st Century Bushcraft". .
I thought those of you who read my previous article on the rise of fake environmentalism would be interested in knowing that it was removed from a popular forum called Bushcraft USA where I have (now had) a vendor account. All of my notifications and likes were also wiped clean. A big thank you needs to go out to Dave Rubin and the Locals community for maintaining a free place to speak and share ideas.
