Yesterday I was showing my 2 young children how to sled ride on our rual mountainous property. I put my big 6' 2" 200lbs body on my 3 year olds plastic toboggan lied down and went down a small hill.
Unfortunately I over shot my lower yard and ran full speed into the woods and through the nastiest briar patch you ever saw. I was pinned between a 12' briar bush over head and still laying down on the sled.:grumpy: I couldn't get up so I reached down into my front pocket and flicked out my Strider SMF DGG. I began using it as a machete and after 2 minutes I made a hole so I could stand up. I then used my Strider to hack my way out of the thorn bush. These were the kind of thorn bushes with 1/2" hooked thorns that grab and hold on to everything they touch. After 15 minutes, I was out. I guess you never know when you'll need your knife to save your azz.
I also made another multi water bottle cut video after the kids went inside.. ..I didnt sharpen the knife after hacking with it for 20 minutes. It did very well.

Notice in the background of the pic.. That is the woods I over shot and ended up at the bottom.
