📘 THE BOOK: "The Old Scout Way: Walt's Camping & Fishing Manual" (120 camp and fishing tricks) 📗 ALSO: "The Old Scout Way: Walt's Camp Cooking Manual" (60 tricks for cooking with no kitchen) Get one, or both in a bundle: https://waltscampingsecrets.com I spent thirty-five years as a scoutmaster, and a red Swiss Army knife rode in just about every boy's pocket. Victorinox lists 15 functions for its Huntsman. In this video I count down 60 jobs that knife and its cousins will actually do, from the toothpick that opens a zip tie to the edge that throws real sparks off a ferro rod. In this video: What the curved hook is really for, the can opener done right, and the corkscrew that works a jammed knot loose The notch on the bottle opener, the eyeglass screwdriver that fits in the corkscrew, and the sewing eye in the awl Blister, splinter, bee sting and tick care, the way the Mayo Clinic and the CDC describe it Fire prep with both blades, the magnifier, and the back of the saw Safety: never heat an unopened can, never baton with a blade that doesn't lock, and only gather dead wood where the rules allow it. Keep your fire in a ring and drown it cold. How old is your knife, and what's the strangest job it ever did? Let me know in the comments.
