Okay- I have a new favorite survival teacher...

No doubt she's cute, but I've got to ask.....

How caloused are her hands?

I ask this because if her knowledge comes from first hand experience, I would expect her to have caloused hands from the manual work involved in "living the life" :D

Good question Mick,

As for a good model, who truly 'lives the life' (and with incredibly calloused hands with short finger nails), my friend Tamara Wilder has been at it for decades... And with only a Mora! (She's a descendant of Laura Inghalls Wilder of 'Little House on the Prairie' fame)

Here she is making a parfleche...

Seriously, she's one of the toughest darn women I've met!:D
(But you won't find her on youtube...)


Here's a link to some free articles of hers:http://www.paleotechnics.com/articlesindex.html
 
How big is the market on Youtube for people showing the features on stuff they've bought and calling it a 'review'?


Pretty big, I guess. :rolleyes:

Like we could tell the difference GP? What are you doing waking up past noon on this beautiful day anyhow?

I stay up late. Somebody has to keep a watchful eye on the world while you pussies sleep!

Besides it's an overcast/rainy day here and I have to go to work. Why would you want to hurry that???

I'm with Southern Cross, Rescue Riley and Scott Free on this. Nice to look at, but short on content. In particular, it worries me no end when people talk about the edibility of Wild Carrot (Daucus carota) without also mentioning it's most poisonous look alike.

Agreed. I'd prefer to see a worn out item being reviewed with many months of use.

+1 :thumbup: for Tamara. I had occasion to touch base with her a couple of times, when I was on PaleoPlanet. Seems like a fine lady. And thanks for the picture - always nice to put a face to a name.

Sorry about her 'only a Mora' luck though. :D (This was not meant to slag Moras, as they were my most used knife for many, many years - just a little BladeForumsVirus humour :D)

RR,

You are onto something. I should have my girlfriend do the selling points from now on. A little bit prettier than me but that is easy.

In all seriousness, at least the original girl in this thread is trying to help others. I won't fault someone for intentions like that.
 
That picture of the left-handed bow really messed with my head. I didn't immediately recognize what was wrong. I just knew something looked weird. Then I realized it was backward. "Maybe the pic was taken in a mirror" "No that's not it." Then I held my arms out and pulled an imaginary bow and then looked at the pic and then back at my arms and then back at the pic and then back at my arms. I AM looking at it right and that IS a left handed bow. :eek:

I spent a good two or three minutes before I felt confident enough to post about what I was seeing.
 
G'day Tim

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I've got to say that in my humble opinion that the picture you have included is of one hell of a woman :thumbup:



Kind regards
Mick
 
the she wee is hilarious. i don't care who you are. i am gonna buy one of those damn things and make my wife use it lol. can you imagine walking along a trail and looking over seeing a girl squatting and pissing out of a as she puts its blue male organ.

on topic though. she atleast seems to know a good amount vs most people on youtube how just say anything that comes to their mind. most her products seemed new and unused but still she is trying and getting outside in the snow and playing. props for that

Allright Kev:thumbup: which one of two ladies is she? The one on the left is beautiful, but it appears the one on the right has a slight five o'clock shadow. (maybe Italian)

:p
