Hi guys Great job Perfect fishing cabin Some time ago, I saw ya fishing together, but this is a step up boys Total Respect from Australia: ) there should be no homeless people when you can do that with free palates and a few bits and pieces salvaged from here and there. INSPIRATIONAL, I want one two Hard work, but rewarding I bet: ) will serve you both for years, if nobody moves in, that is: ) Don't get me wrong, we were all baught up with foil and alloy pots for cooking, but they are bad news for our brains, and cause Alzimers etc. throw the kettle back into storage, it's only good for candle wax And we must all stop using foil to cook our fish boys, seriously. Old ceramic or stoneware cooking pots are heaps better, stainless whatever but not aluminium. do the research I'm only trying to help you. :) Anyway thanks for sharing and I look forward to your future videos, guys Thanks again

Your knife is called Fred UK knife law wise, as long as it isn't ready to use in an instant (e. g. bottom of you rucksack or in you car boot, etc) and you have a legitimate reason to be carrying it (e. g. work, recreational bug out cabin, etc, you are legally aloud to carry any knife. (You can carry a knife on your belt in the county side but if you cone to a road. bottom of the rucksackThis also includes anything up to and including swords (with a sword, going to you mates house doesn't count. unless he has a club or dojo on his property. I descovered this when looking into buying a Samurai sword. It can also only have a sharpened edge on one side. I double sided sword should have a slightly rounded edge on one side (blunt does not count, so even if it hits someone it shouldn't cut them. That's it in a basic nut shell.

You asked about the knife and I scrolled through a little ways to see if anyone else was able to answer you on that. Seeing none I will attempt to give you an idea on it. The blade shape is based on the Soviet AK-47 fixed blade bayonet but was either designed or converted into a folding knife. The hole you pointed out, in its original bayonet design, would link to a pin on the bottom end of the sheath and become a pair of wire cutters. From what I can tell this knife, as a folder, wasn't designed to be used in this way. I believe you were right in saying that the numbers were degrees, though I haven't seen that on a knife before, and is likely to be used in conjunction with a compass. As for what to call it I would describe it as a field or bush utility knife or tool. Hope this helped. Good work on the build.

Great project BUT. The way the door was put on someone could lock you in and you could not get outsince the hinges are on the OUTSIDE IF the hinges were inside and tge dor swag inwards at least if someone TRIED to lock you in a pocket knife with screwdrivers on them WOULD GIVE YOU A WAY TO ESCAPE DUH MOMENT? It looks like the small travellers emergency cabin that existed back in the 1800s and early 1900s in the Northern part of the Untied States of America for the great move west. They were small and had no heat source except for candles and the body heat of those staying in them. Some even had blankets, candles and emergency dried or canned foods. A shed never had windows until modern times. Sheds were a one door windowless storage unit.

This is really good cabin for temporary camping during the warmer days and the most important is to not spend any money and where you have the ability to come back for summer days in the nature to swim, camp, get peace and fresh air. If necessary even for winter might be good, but that is more for the military days, otherwise just to build it somewhere to have it forever, foundation as you made, protective form the rain and the roof as old fashioned garages people made, so somewhere near free not much populated washrooms and showers and you can enjoy the summer outdoors, because tents aren't really the best option for the weather condition. Realy good pretty fast build up.

WOW I love your work guys. It's really nice to see a good father and son bond. You don't see that much nowadays. My wife and I own 10. 5 acres of land and have a trail the leads to some stairs that lead to a fishing creek. On the land, we have a few nice camping spots and plan on building some type of small cabin out there. I have been clearing the land and other stuff every spring and summer for the last few years. I will be watching more of your work to get ideas from you two. Keep up the awesome work you do.

Really enjoying your videos, I found you via TAFishing. So inspiring and would love to do some bushcraft with my daughter, trouble is it's finding a woods where you can practice. Such a shame there are so many rules and regs. I think your cabin build is excellent, I love the rustic look of it. Have you considered putting a hinge on those windows so they can open (apologies if it's already planned or done in a later video, it may get mighty warm in there during the summer.

Wow, my brother had that same knife about thirty years ago The hole is similar to the hole on a current British Army bayonet which can be used with the sheath to make a rudimentary wire cutter for barbed wire, etc. A saw back and protractor for general marking out and direction finding with other general survival techniques and the sharp edge itself all combined into a folding knife design which limits the robustness somewhat A blast from the past

I know this is a Necro post but couldn't see the answer to your question about the hole in the knife. You can get (normally on a knife scabbard) a metal block on a pivot, this is attached to a metal plate. When inserted on to the knife it forms wire cutters. Not a great idea as it dulls the knife. However you often find then on survival knives, well used to back in the days of Rambo and Predator lol

Guys, great work You made great progress. I am enjoying your show so much. Not only because of the woodman and woodworker skills you show, but because of the peaceful and calming nature. Great editing by the way. I am watching it, all silent, and it calms me down. And then a little explaination in between, some tea and bread and very heart warming father and son interaction. Love it.
