It's Bushcraft Wednesday!



The thing about bushcraft is it's all about living and surviving in the wild, in the "bush," and doing it yourself instead of relying on nanny state or the nearest supermarket to sort it out for you. That applies to Christmas, and Hickok45 has given us a helpful video to show how it's done.

Notice how everyone's favorite outdoorsman uses the right tool for the job.

I've used det-cord to cut down Christmas trees. Too high tech? Too violent? You can take down a number of trees with a few wraps each -- all at once.

That sounds like a solution. Pics?

LL said...

You mean evidence? No, none of that.

LSP said...

Heh. More explosions, please.

That was utterly brilliant! Now I just need to convince the wife we need to go "cut" our own tree this year.

Hickok is KING.

Okay, HILARIOUS VIDEO. I am still laughing. Worth a few replays...

I like the very beginning (under breath) "Christmas is my favorite time..."

jenny said...

Yes! :)
And the maneuver at the end where he took turns shooting the trees-- as though he was picking off approaching enemies-- impressively TACTICAL!

Very impressive.
