A LITTLE ABOUT OUR FOUNDER:
James Bender has been trained under Dave Canterbury at the Pathfinder School and his former lead instructor, Jaime Burleigh. James grew up in the Eastern Woodlands in Middle Tennessee where he began his outdoor education in survival and bushcraft. He has traveled to all 50 states and 11 foreign countries and has done desert hiking and camping in several deserts, including Death Valley and the Arizona High Desert. He has hiked and camped in mountainous areas from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Coastal Regions of the Olympic Peninsula. He has built a fully functional 18th century log cabin along with being an 18th century reenactor. He travels and speaks about the outdoors and has been a main stage contributor at such events as the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous in Quartzite, Az. He also designs and makes knives and has an intimate understanding of knife profiles, steel characteristics and handle ergonomics for hard use in survival situations. He taught survival and bushcraft for several years at a private school to children between the ages of 8 and 17 as well as to adults in a professional setting since 2017.
