A simple question in the Primitive Camping & Bushcraft Facebook group opened up a much bigger discussion: Do you baton wood?

Some people baton on nearly every trip. Others consider it knife abuse and believe an axe, hatchet, or saw is the better tool. Then there are those who say it all depends on the conditions.

In this episode, Chris breaks down the different camps surrounding batoning and asks the more important question: What problem are you actually trying to solve?

Topics discussed include:

Batoning is a useful skill when it solves a real problem. The woods do not care which camp you are in. What matters is whether you can use the tools and resources available to get the job done safely.
