Description

String, cordage, rope, line — whatever you call it, it’s nature’s original duct tape.
And Matthew Tate, Owner and Lead Survival Instructor of American Survival Company is going to teach us how to use it with some basic knot skills.

As a combat veteran and certified survival instructor, Matt is passionate about teaching others life-saving skills to survive emergency situations and thrive in the wilderness. Matt has trained in diverse environments from the Ozarks to swamps, jungles, mountains and the desert. Drawing on his own experiences surviving in some of the world’s most unforgiving environments, Matt is passionate about sharing the skills and lessons he has learned.

Today, Matt uses his wilderness and tactical experience to provide civilian, military, and organizational training domestically and internationally. He appeared in season one of Discovery Channel’s Bushcraft Build-off, designed multiple blades with world-famous Dozier knives specific to survival training, and contributes to publications like Backpacker Magazine.
