The Bushcraft Kelso Card
All things Kelso here!
The legendary Bushcraft Mad Scientist, Bushcraft Kelso, collaborated with us to design his signature Kelso Card, a testament to his innovative spirit and unparalleled survival expertise. Known for crafting nearly anything imaginable from found and improvised materials—he’s built everything from functional fishing rods and reels out of wood and a safety pin to crossbows fashioned from river cane. He hasn’t made a working car yet, but give him time! His boundless creativity and mastery of bushcraft skills made him a perfect addition to our Signature Card line.
Bushcraft Kelso's approach to survival takes "thinking outside the box" to a whole new level. He seamlessly blends modern discarded materials (often considered trash) with naturally sourced elements to create one-of-a-kind tools. The Kelso Card embodies these principles, designed for adaptability and inspired by his resourcefulness.
When Kelso ventures into the wilderness, he's rarely alone. His constant companion, Bushcraft Sassy, the one-and-only bushcraft goat, is always by his side, carrying their gear and keeping him company. For more about this incredible duo, visit the MEET THE CREW page.
True to his generous nature, Kelso rarely keeps his ingenious creations for himself. Instead, he passes them on to others, spreading the joy of bushcraft and sharing the adventure. For him, it’s all about having a good time—and ensuring others get to join in on the fun too.
