Anyone into bushcraft ??

[FOX FIRE]

Just curious if anyone was much into bushcraft, always had a intrest since I was a kid, not hardcore into it but do practice some things, kind of get'n the bug to get deeper tho.

I dabble in it a little bit. I never start a fire with a lighter! Lol. Bushcraftusa is a cool site if you haven't been there.

yes. i used to be real into reenactments, rendezvous and the like. i still practice primitive firebuilding, tan my own hides, been trying to study up more on the plant side of things.

Thers quite a bit of it that any outdoorsman should learn, never can tell when a hunt'n/fish'n/ride'n trip mite not go as planned & bushcraft skills could make a difference, its nice knowing you can take care of yourself VS being helpless without a clue.

I try to stay pretty up to date on primitive fire making, shelter building, and water collection. Its all pretty basic stuff I can practice whenever I'm out hiking or hunting.

I bought a tiny stone head from a guy at a craft show a few years back, how he could knap something that small without break'n it I'll never know, its about the size of a dime & no thicker than a nickel, planned on make'n a hat pin with it..

Its not hard. You just use smaller tools. Easier than making a big one honestly.

Ive been wanting to make a bushcraft knife from an old file. I just need to get some time to get around to doing it. I think making something yourself would be really cool and would give me a sense of accomplishment.
