OUTDOORS

Luke Cuenco   08.03.21 If you’ve ever spent a lot of time out hunting you’ll know that odors at home don’t necessarily help you out in the field and vice versa. The last thing you want is your wife complaining about your smelly and wet hunting gear and that is why ScentLok has developed their new Ozone

This fungus, also known as the coal fungus, has been used as a survival resource by our ancestors for thousands of years. Daldinia Concentrica is commonly found on decaying ash trees here in Britain. During the early stages of its growth, it is light brown in colour and incredible hard. But after a season or

James bought a $400 Black Aces Tactical S MAX Pro semi-automatic shotgun a couple of weeks ago, rigged it with $100 of cheap parts he found online, and got it ready for today’s 500

We build a Viking House in this 10 day Bushcraft shelter build. We use simple hand tools and traditional techniques to build a Viking shelter in the forest. The timber frame is built out of cedar, as is the bark roof. The fire pit is about 5ft long and 1ft deep. We made raised beds

Luke Cuenco   08.05.21 For long-time fans of the brand and of AR-15 rifles, some good news was dropped at the beginning of August with Bushmaster Firearms’ announcement of their official return to the industry. As part of their return, Bushmaster says they will be bringing some of their most popular rifles back immediately and will continue

We build a dome hut using primitive technology and simple hand tools. The frame of the bushcraft shelter was built using hazel saplings woven and lashed together with inner bark of cedar tree. Using a bushcraft knife, we carved up a bark peeler and used these to peel the bark off of the tree. The

Jordan Estrada   08.03.21 The “Perfect Crime”  Recently, I had a trail camera stolen. It was a clean sweep – I lost a cellular-enabled Spypoint Mico Link LTE, so I hoped I would eventually get a picture of the thief, but no luck. I had my camera settings adjusted to upload pictures once a day, and the

I head to the woods to test out the hand auger that blacksmith youtuber Alec Steele forged for me in his UK workshop! Join me at the bushcraft camp as I use the auger to make some rails for the woodcarving workshop. I also build a carving block using the auger. Of course there’s time

Rusty S.   08.02.21 Keep an eye on the time, whatever the time New from Suunto is their Core Alpha Stealth watch.  Made in Finland, this watch is geared towards the serious hunter or outdoor enthusiast.  Featuring an NVG-compatible Red light mode, the watch is MIL-STD-810 Certified.  That means it is “ruggedized” and thoroughly tested against shock,

I decided to get out into the woods to scavenge around for some Chestnuts. Eventually (with the help of my dog!) I found a chestnut tree. Thought I would bring you along on the adventure and show you how I cook and prepare the chestnuts before I eat them. Hope you enjoy the video and

I head back to the Bushcraft Camp, this time to show you how I make a raised camp bed using dead wood from the forest. I also cooked some lunch on the fire pit and used the cooking crane again! I’m really liking the fire/cooking set up, it’s working very well and actually this end

Luke Cuenco   07.24.21 Conservation is an all-important part of every hunter’s or angler’s life. Without proper conservation efforts, many species of animals we love to hunt or fish for would disappear either through irresponsible action or inaction. That fact is not lost upon the folks over at Savage who have just announced that they will be

This is the cookset that I currently use whilst out doing buschraft. The Crusader MK2 cookset is great value for money. It’s lightweight, strong, durable and versatile. I use it with a trangia alcohol spirit burner and it works a treat! It even has a mould that perfectly fits the trangia burner. Below is more

Mann’s films always show a sophistication with guns and gun handling, and HEAT is no exception, featuring 30 types of guns, including the Heckler & Koch USP, the SIG SAUER P220, the Beretta 92 and the 84 “Cheetah”,

Jordan Estrada   07.26.21 When do you say goodbye to well-loved boots and admit it’s time to find a replacement? For me, it’s when I find myself in Home Depot, shopping for construction-grade adhesives to keep my boots from falling apart. I’d worn my last pair of boots for many years and many more miles, but they’d
