Survival Kit with Mors Kochanski

God bless this man.

goofy ahh guide

That is the first time I have seen that type of saw blade. I can definitely see how much better that is compared to a wire saw.

Very good video! Thanks for sharing!!!!

I’ve crammed my fair share of gear into bags I never thought I’d be able to in my years in the infantry but cramming that jacket into that pot is just plain badass lol

Oh Mors. You are so very dearly missed. Thank you for all you have given me.

While I respect his basic skills training, and have learned from it, I part company with his cavalier attitude towards proper first aid and kit for same. Granted, nature can provide some of what's needed in that respect... IF you have the time to do it. If he only had TWO medical or first aid cases in his teaching career, he's been lucky. I'll not contest his Ten Cs of survival. But I'll keep my 2lb trauma kit - which I've been certified to use, and hopefully will never need to again.

Thank you !👍

Please, please don’t ever take these recordings away…

It’s cool but I don’t see it as 100% practical

This must have been back before you could get 550 para at any walmart. Never watched a Mors video, like him already!

The reductionist approach towards what is essential. Great video

Got the 5 Cs covered

Thank You, Mors. It was a good video.
Rest in peace...😔

the wisest and truest sentence he said:
"The More You Know, The Less You Carry"

👍🤠

I absolutely LOVE that he’s just naming these items by what they are instead on what brand they are from. I hate when people on here are always naming brands like there aren’t 1000 other brands that perform the same actions. Just my rant for the day. What a legend.

Loggers are hurt all the time. By themselves happens.

Bad ass!

So I guess I won't be needing the eleventy-eight thousand dollars worth of the finest junk that China has ever produced? I'm taking my combination pop-up tent/canoe/jacuzzi, I don't care what Mors says.

We did a group meet last weekend in the uk in honour of this man and his skills, everyone that came are passionate about his teachings. This is going to be a yearly event for us. ❤️

Mr kochanski forgot more than any survival instructors know. RIP sir your teachings and legacy lives on sir

Thank You, Sir, for bringing Your's wisdom out to younger people. Great video!😀👍

Man I sure am going to miss you. You are one of a kind my friend

RIP Mors

We lost a legend yesterday morning. Rest in peace, Mors, you will be missed!

RIP a true humble legend

RIP Mors! A true Bushcraft master

"I will build me a camp by a cool mountain spring, Where the trout play at eve and the wood thrushes sing; I will roof it with bark; and my snug sylvan house, Shall be sweet with the fragrance of evergreen boughs. When the shadows of night settle down on the marsh, And the cry of the bittern booms sullen and harsh, The glow of my hearth-fire shall glisten and shine; Where the beech and the hemlock their branches entwine." ~ G.W. Sears aka Nessmuk 1887 ......................RIP Mors Kochanski  10 November 1940 ~ 5 December 2019

R.I.P. Mr Kochanski.

Well ah mus kornfess ah needa koffee pot bout as big asa 5 gallon bucket. .👍. .

Mors is a sage! It's hard to overstate the value of a warming layer! Once I was forced to spend an unplanned night out in the mountains of Idaho in just jeans and a T-shirt. It had been 85F that day so I didn't have a jacket but by evening temps had dropped to 40F. I had a pretty large "survival kit" with all the stuff the gurus say you should have but no warm clothing. Suffice to say I'd have traded half my kit for a light jacket! Ultimately I was pretty comfortable under a tarp made with a space blanket with a fire out front, atop a bough bed to keep me off the ground. Yet if it had been raining or too wet to get a fire I might have been in trouble. Now I keep a Helikon-Tex Swagman Roll in my kit. Kind of had to learn the hard way that Mors was right!

Nothing like shoving 10 lbs of crap in a five lb. Sack

Amazing a real surviver!

Sorry, hug-sized tree. Does tha mean a tree you can barely get your arms around? Anyone?

Mr. Kochanski, what is a "huck" -sized tree?

Mors, do you like the "biolite" campsite?

In 2075 maybe your survival can will contain a teaching hologram of Mr Kochanski himself!

love this video!

Anyone can you show a kit that is heavy, complicated and expensive. Then Mors comes along and makes it simpler, lighter and more affordable. As someone who has spent a long time in the outdoors, I can tell you the amount of thought, experience, and creativity to come to this cannot be over appreciated.

It's an honor to learn from you sir. Having recently come across your videos and such I have watched many things that are proven to be very useful! Thank you Mr. Kochansky your teaching and legacy are a gift to us all!

Appreciate Video clip! Excuse me for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Saankramer Land Protection System (just google it)? It is an awesome exclusive product for Learning how to survive following a crisis minus the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my good mate called Gray at last got excellent results with it.

So true Mors. While most "outfitters" survival instructors are really selling classroom spaces or a myriad of non-essential outdoor products, Mors is showing you the true essentials.

For my person comfort I'd add the following items:

A backpack to carry my kit
Keep the bush pot and add second metal container, so I can cook/make wilderness medicine which boiling water wit the other
A plate compass with moving bezel ring, inclination adjustment and signal mirror, rather than a cheap ass button compass
Substitute a more robust full-tang belt knife like the PLSK1 with a 5 inch+ blade for processing wood instead of that neck knife
Quality multi-tool on my belt
Fre kit in a metal tin with BIC lighter, ferro rod, various tinders such as char cloth, lamp wick, razor blade, 6X magnifying glass
Two 3' by 3'cotton bandanas
Two large size 3 mil polyethylene drum liners, aka garbage bags for emergency cover elements
A vial of 2% tincture of iodine-to disinfect wounds or water
Quality headlamp with flash mode and spare batteries
A decent single shot 12 gauge or a take-down long bow or a spear point or Pathfinder sling shot and some ball bearing ammo
A small rite-in-the-rain notebook and a couple of carpenter pencils
And a roll of gorilla tape.

Is it heavier. Yep, but not so much heavier that I can't carry it on my back.

I like gadgets but knowledge weighs a lot less. Mors can probably get by in comfort on a lot less gear than I can!

does he have a mansion in that pot?
