Probably someone would and Screech was a drink to wake the dead, both the orange and the lemon.

Wow, thought it was April the 1st there. Worth investigating, trying

I use a larger wider style pack so I can pack sleeping bag inside my bivi bag loose. Just find it easier with a 80/90 plus pack. For the last 20 years the majority of my kit has got lighter except for my comfortable centre zip sleeping bag. Eg less clothing Airmats instead of rollmats. Lighter...

Just owned the ghillie kettle so can’t compare. Originally bought the ghillie because they had different types of stopper and I preferred this one.

Those are elegant lighters, with classic style. Nothing like our throw away cheap modern ones

No problem thanks for the reply

Was it my fault you bought another one today “orange”

Yes going to stick with the huntsman many many years ago I decided on the huntsman and the outrider but since the latter is a lock knife I always carry the huntsman. Like the idea of the difference colour option offered by Swiss tool.

Thank you, nearly tempted! but I think I will just change my huntsman scales to hopefully smarten it up. It is nice though.

Just to help me what do you find the difference with these two and which one do you use the most. Just asking because I see a lot of us choose to have either one or both. I bought the huntsman before knowing about the farmer X. Should I be tempted ?

I know your selling and you’ve said not for me. A Khukri is worth keeping, just needs a lot of practice like any good knife, this more so and it’s worth it. Many members will say the same.

Great will try both, thanks.

Just checked their website was after a very small container for puritabs for my pocket. They were a good shop.

I like that idea an account from selling kit to use to buy. I have been trying to not buy anything but did fall and bought a grayl. I am hoping to get fitter and do more hillwalks and bivi camps instead on woodland walks.
