the

the what's up you to prepare to wander out in the woods today it has been
0:54
along time since i've been out and it's been a while since i released a video and i want to apologize to people
1:01
who follow this channel and who expect a video every week uh... like i promised in the past but uh..
1:09
life throws you curve balls and you have to adapt and uh... i have a a new job a new work schedule and uh... i'm sleeping a lot
1:19
during the day working at night and uh... just my life is kind of turned upside down right now and i'm really trying to
1:26
find time to get out in the woods and do videos so i come out to the woods today and i'm going to enjoy my time off today
1:36
uh... i'm gonna have a pipe i'm gonna cook up some lunch over a fire
1:42
and i'm gonna show you some new gear that i just got uh..
1:55
i think you'll be interested in seeing like i said it's been a while i almost don't know what to do
2:03
in front of the camera or what to do with my gear it's just like i haven't touched it in a while
2:09
haven't even thought about it and uh... that's sad because i really enjoy being out in the woods it's really a decompression
2:15
time for me i think it's a mental health break it's something that everybody needs to do is get outside
2:22
and it's been a long hard winter tons of snow here in central ohio uh..
2:29
just made it difficult to get out and then with working night shift
2:34
and adjusting to that and getting my sleep schedule all adjusted my days have just been spent sleeping and uh..
2:41
this is really one of the nicer days we've had recently and i thought i need to get out i need to make this happen i need to get off my butt
2:50
and get out there so that's what i'm going to do
3:02
what are we going to look at today well i got recently
3:09
a very interesting canteen kit from boundless voyage they are on amazon
3:19
and they make a lot of interesting titanium cook kits and canteen kits
3:23
and this one looked really cool to me because it had a few features that
3:29
i always look for in a canteen kit and i've always wanted and this one has it
3:34
so we're going to take a look at that today cook up some lunch
3:38
and just enjoy the weather so stick around so what makes this canteen kit
3:49
uh... unique compared to all the other canteen kits out there is that uh..
3:55
it has a few features that combine other types of cook systems
4:00
and uh... i was just really floored when i found this thing
4:05
i couldn't believe it and the price is really reasonable it comes
4:10
uh... not with a canteen this is a nalgene oasis which fits perfectly in
4:15
this cup you can see that it nests in there nicely nice tight fit
4:20
so it's not going anywhere but what's cool about this canteen cup is
4:25
is that it has a bale as well as folding handles so you can cook on this thing uh... over a stove but also you can hang it over a fire
4:38
and it also comes with its own stove stand uh... which is awesome uh..
4:46
you know military uh... canteen cook sets uh... have these uh... you know stoves with them
4:53
so finding one in titanium i think is awesome and if you're looking for
4:59
something that's a little bit cheaper than the heavy cover uh... titanium set that's out there that's you know
5:06
that comes with a titanium canteen that's over a hundred dollars for that set and that's just way too much for some people
5:11
this canteen this cup and stove and it has a lid uh... are right around forty five dollars forty nine dollars on amazon
5:20
so it's really affordable so all you have to do is add a canteen to it and you're ready to go
5:24
and it all nests together comes with the stuff sack and uh..
5:30
it's just a it's a nifty little set up uh... for the price
5:34
so what we're going to do is we're going to get a fire going underneath this thing get some water boiling and cook some ramen for lunch
5:40
and uh... see how it goes so here we go so we got the ground cleared off here
5:51
i'm going to process some wood down i've got some twigs and stuff but i also want to get some bigger pieces so
5:59
i cut this piece with my saw and uh... i'm using a new knife today
6:10
this is the tops pukko really cool little blade i'm really looking forward to messing around with it a little bit
6:17
there will be a more in depth review later on but for today
6:22
we're going to pound on this thing a little bit it's a pretty small blade
6:37
it's under four inches right through a knot, that's pretty good
7:20
woods are really wet right now too so dry wood is at a premium
7:33
it's got to look a little bit harder for it it's a little bit hard to get it to stick
8:18
this wood is kind of knotty
8:48
so i don't know what the best way to do this is, i don't know if i should build a fire and put this on
8:51
top of it or if i should build a fire inside of it, i guess i'll try inside of it and see how that works
8:57
it may be a little more difficult working with limited space
9:08
fill it up with some small stuff get that going
9:22
probably no wrong or right way to do this it's nice that the top is open like this so you can
9:47
work with your fire, build your fire easier fill this thing as much as i can and then we're going to use a fire starter
10:02
to get it all going i've got some of these feathers that i made curls
10:12
put those on top it's like i haven't made a fire in such a long time
10:35
next up is fire starters and
10:46
one of my go-to fire starters is from a company called black and white
10:50
they make all kinds of cool fire starting gear
11:07
i got one of these kind of cotton impregnated tabs so we're going to try that
11:36
and i'm going to open it up a little bit
11:55
get the fibers exposed it's really packed in there
12:10
there we go open that thing up let's create some surface area
12:17
now we're going now we're going
12:32
to put some twigs on it so just
12:51
feeding it little twigs, there's not really a lot of big wood yet
13:03
get that underneath the rim should be able to
13:13
get the stove on here, or the cup there's the lid
13:38
it's got a nice tab on it and it stays up
13:50
imagine you can use a trangia or other alcohol type stove underneath that
13:56
inside that stove you may have to raise it up a little bit on something
14:02
but uh... it definitely would work, there's enough room in there to get a stove inside of it
14:08
and uh... i like this type of stove because it contains the fire
14:13
so it's real safe, the fire is not going to get big and out of hand
14:19
but i'm still burning wood and i'm still using natural resources so i'm not hauling in fuel
14:24
for a stove so for these spring trips, summer trips it's going to be pretty handy
14:33
winter time will be a little more difficult of course you want a bigger fire and that's where the bale comes into play
14:39
and you can actually build a larger fire and uh... you know get it
14:46
hanging over a fire with that bale, and that bale i think is such an awesome idea
14:50
i've always wanted a canteen cup with a bale and now i've got one so i'm pretty happy about it
14:54
and i do own the heavy cover style canteen set uh... the canteen does not fit inside this cup
15:02
so that's one thing to note and i don't think i don't think the uh..
15:07
you know the self-reliance outfitter's canteen would fit either but the Nalgene Oasis fits perfectly and i really don't need a stainless or
15:16
titanium canteen if i've got a metal cup i can boil water in a metal cup
15:20
just as well so uh... it's you know you save a little bit of weight that way it's a trade off
16:22
uh... uh..
17:52
uh... definitely hot stove did a good job concentrating the heat
18:02
cooking up the ramen so
18:18
finished lunch cooked everything with this with the boundless voyage canteen kit
18:25
and uh... i really like it it's pretty cool it's a nice piece of kit
18:29
uh... definitely love the bale on it that makes it so much easier getting it on and off the fire
18:34
and just working with it and uh... the stove the integrated stove that nests
18:38
with everything is awesome like i said before comes with a lid
18:45
comes with a stuff sack so it's a nice little kit for forty five bucks you can't go wrong
18:50
i'll have this in my amazon store if you're interested in reading more about
18:53
it and seeing reviews and stuff on it i would definitely check it out if you're looking for a canteen cup
19:00
uh... to add to your uh... to your haversack kit or your bushcraft gear uh..
19:05
this is a great option in adding the the Nalgene Oasis canteen which is
19:12
a fantastic canteen by the way uh... very heavy duty lightweight uh... doesn't leak and it nests perfectly with this cup
19:20
uh... it makes a really great setup and this is perfect for my haversack kit that
19:24
i take out so hope you enjoyed the video uh... as always please like subscribe and share
