A few questions:

1. Who made the tent?
Tschum 2P SOSWA (made in Germany by a small family company) https://tschum.de/en/Tschum-2P-SOSWA.html

2. Who made the stove?
Poshehonka S (made in Russia) https://tschum.de/en/Poshehonka-Wood-Stove-Removeable-Shields.html

3. What type of axe are you using? Weight? Dimensions?
Homemade Karelian axe – C45 steel and ash handle. 900 grams (including the handle), 8cm cutting edge, 55cm handle, 16.5cm from pole to cutting edge.

4. What type of knife are you using?
Homemade. A classic nordic knife, offen referred to by the finnish name „Puukko“. Spring steel and birch burl handle. Here is how I made it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKF7oDsugYc

5. What is you’re kuksa/drinking cop made from?
Birch burl. Homemade.

6. Can I buy an axe, knife etc. from you?
No.

7. Do you hunt?
No – all food is from a local store. I only fish.

8. Why do you sometimes hit with the side of the axe instead of the poll?
Keeps the cutting edge away from you’re face and the larger surface area makes you less likely to miss. I usually only use the side of the axe in the beginning (when things can be unstable and or I don’t need to hit hard).

9. What drill did you use?
Unknown old auger.

10 What saw did you use?
Silky Bigboy blade and a homemade ash handle.
