Bringing Smiles to Show and Tell
Ryker is a good shot! It was fun making a video with him about his toy Mossburg 590M Airsoft BB Shotgun. He got the Metal Target for Christmas. Spoiled boy.When he isn’t fishing, he is aiming at something.We can’t wait for Summer.
Cameron McKirdy produced a new #EDC or Everyday Carry video update! Check out the latest gear Survival Bros uses to stay safe, and be prepared for emergency situations. Many products have multiple uses. For example, you could use the headphone wires as cordage to keep something together. HD video filmed with the new GoPro Hero7 Black camera. It’s just OK. The lens fogged up from the body heat coming off of my hand. I thought this video was ruined, but I’m happy with the post. Making YouTube videos is tough, but rewarding.

As you can see in this HD video, nobody beats up gear like me. I took the new Kershaw Secret Agent knife to the beach, and put it through a rigorous torture test. I sliced, and stabbed ocean debris washed ashore in Long Beach, Washington.
Flashing the tool with the protective sheath on!
Model Number 4007, the Secret Agent isn’t flashy. It’s functional. The spear point blade has a black-oxide coating for protection against corrosion. Additionally, the surface is non-reflective. So it won’t catch light, or be easy to see. Both sides come sharpened, making it easy to puncture nearly any material. The Secret Agent handled rope, plastic, aluminum, fiberglass, and even a dead jellyfish! After the beating, it was still sharp, and the tip showed little wear. Of course, knives don’t like sand, so I plan to sharpen it for the first time, or I can send it back to the KAI warehouse to get it cleaned up for free. I’ve stopped by Kershaw headquarters in Tualatin, Oregon (South of Portland) before for a hassle free repair, which took less than an hour.
This knife is a favorite in my collection because it’s lightweight at only 3 ounces. The ergonomic handle is glass-filled nylon. It’s well balanced. Fitting securely in my palm, without being too wide. Plus, with a rubberized, textured grip, it’s not going to slip out of my hand. You can wear it on a lanyard, or strapped to your leg. Blade length is perfect, and no joke at 4.4 inches long. The black sheath is quality, with a wide, tight clip. At under $40, the Kershaw Secret Agent knife may be the best value in the industry. Don’t forget Kershaw Knives’ products are backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects. Bottom line: The Secret Agent belongs in your Every Day Carry knife rotation. It’s Survival Bros tested and approved. For more HD videos, SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL. Thank you.
Survival Bros smashes the screen of a cellphone with a new COAST Products F611 Tactical Field blade. It was total destruction! The carbide tip can also muscle through regular glass, Plexiglas, and plastic. It’s a sturdy knife, and I usually have it handy at the bottom of my backpack, just in case. The F611 is a solid tool for camping, because it can help you process wood for a fire, or even when creating an emergency shelter. You’ll like working with it, and it’s guaranteed by COAST.

Take a look at my new commuter bike called the Giant Sedona. It’s been way more comfortable to cruise in than my hardtail mountain bike. I like being able to ride up high, and adjust the handlebars so I can sit up straight. In the HD video you can see all of the extras I threw on it. Building a bike, although it not from scratch, is still a blast, I purchased new Defender fenders to keep myself fresh, a tiny black bell so I don’t have to scream at all the tourists to move or die, water bottle holders for hydration 24/7, and a big manly basket to hold my wildflowers in (more like edible mushrooms). Andy at Prom Bike Shop in Seaside, Oregon told me this bicycle would be an excellent candidate for a 49cc motor, so I’m thing about that upgrade. It’s a work in progress. I’m just grateful to have a bike that doesn’t destroy me after riding it short distances. I’ve never owned a Giant before, but I’m sure I will be satisfied. Like the satin black color with gold trim? It’s different. You’ll see more videos and blogs featuring this whip soon. Thanks or supporting Survival Bros. The website has been doing great, and our YouTube audience is growing rapidly.

Jason shows off his big bad three wheeler at The Cove near the beach. This vehicle can carry massive amounts of cargo, and it handles extremely well. I’ve seen him drift it, and ride on two wheels down the prom in Seaside, OR. Like his survival cycle? It’s comfortable, and functional. You’ll see it coming with the contrasting red and flat black paint. Survival Bros loves that it’s high visibility, even though it sits low. The extra lights make it considerably safer on the road less traveled. Thanks for visiting our emergency preparedness blog. Enter your email on the top left of the screen to subscribe! Peace.
Thanks for watching! In addition, the blade steel is 154CM with a titanium nitride coating. Super durable. Don’t get the F.A.S.T. version of this knife. It felt slow to deploy, and cheap.

Another day, another hustle. I picked up this vintage Univega mountain bike at a garage sale I found on Craigslist. I wasn’t planning on going to any sales that day, because I was having my own. But the post said there were 100 bicycles for sale, so I had to peep it. This one caught my eye. It’s black, my fav, and had nice big tires on it. Plus, I was pleased that the rear rack came with. I’ve been wanting a hardtail bike, so I can put side bags full of survival gear on it, and possibly a motor. I think this whip is an excellent candidate for a motorized conversion. Now I’m hunting for the right kit on eBay to make it happen.
The lady at the garage sale had this gem priced at $80. Not happening. I pointed out the busted up seat, and said I’d have to replace it. She didn’t want to budge, but I explained it would help me out, because I don’t have a car. So she caved, and took my two crispy 20’s. I was pumped, and felt fortunate for the come up. I thanked her, checked out the rest of her crap, and bounced back to my sale. A hustlers work is never done.
It’s cool finding old stuff at Goodwill, pawn shops, and estate sales. It gives you the chance to learn about products you didn’t know about. Turns out, this brand was one of the first to develop mountain bikes. Very cool. If you know more about Univega, or have other ideas to improve this, please share. Thanks for visiting Survival Bros.
