Felling a Tree With Only a Knife  

 

Part of survival is preparedness, another part is adapting.  If you are venturing off into the woods you should always bring with you an axe, hatchet, or a saw, but you might have forgotten them or lost them.  In that case, you will need to use a knife for jobs that generally require a much larger tool.  But, it can be done, including felling a standing dead tree.  The entire process is demonstrated in this video, along with possible dangers and probably difficulties explained.

  1. I use a 12 volt battery and a 12 volt solar panel hooked into a 30 amp solar panel charge controller. The 12 volt DC output runs through a multivibrator to produce a 12 volt square wave and then through two voltage doublers to produce a 48 volt square wave which drives the silver rods (AC produces even wear on the rods). Back to back, 100 volt max, 35 microamp current limiting diodes* maintain a constant current in both directions so that I don’t have to worry about manually monitoring/adjusting/reversing polarity on the silver rods. Of course the setup also charges IPADS, cell phones, laptop & flashlight batteries, runs some LED lights and powers my HAM radio rig so it a very versatile setup.
