Mod Note: And another dodgy profile. Joined, tripped the scammer detection system, now banned.

Yes, have read that too. My neighbour's cat is a regular fixture around my place and I have to be careful when and where I spray my gear so that I don't leave any overspray on areas he walks through while wet. I tend to throw down shirts and trousers and use them as backing for spraying socks...

one cannot find the 11% permethrin concentrate to mix your own 0.5% clothing treatment any more, but the pre-mix is still available if you are willing to pay. https://www.lifesystems.co.uk/products/ex4-anti-mosquito-spray I remember reading of tests done by the US Forestry Service where plenty...

My mum, soon to be 80, has a UKPK which she has had fun producing to help an old gent cut string in the post office, and open some lunch stuff in a food tent at the Chelsea Flower Show. She loves seeing people’s faces! In her younger days, back in the 1960s and 70s, she carried a Stanley blade...

Funnily enough, I have just had to switch to cutting up all apples with my knife rather than biting chunks off with just my teeth. I have a tendency to bite the inside of my lips and cheeks, then get ulcers, figured out the most common culprit is big bites of apple. I might not have changed...

Bought a Scientific Anglers fly line, MPX smooth floater, 7wt. I had not used one of their floaters before, just recently tried some sink tip lines. In the past I have used Rio Gold In- Touch in 6wt and a Sunray in 6wt. Older 7wt lines. Never come close to casting a full 30 yard line...

Mod note. @TayloJA has been banned for posting an inappropriate spam link. We were suspicious of the account, but not enough to take action. A day after front page news is a man murdering a teen with a Japanese style sword, @TayloJA thought it the right time to post a link in the...

If @Falstaff can post a link to the particular video, perhaps we can see where the reason for a sub-3+non-lock knife as "just useful" was thrown out by a court of appeal. Without seeing where that comes from, and the wording, it isn't even worth speculating.

Hello and welcome to the forum. Found your thread on thebushcraftforum.com. Lots of good advice. I suspect though that you will find quite a few differences between bushcraft in the US and the UK, not least that you have a lot more broad leaf forest over there. I grew up in Westchester...

Blade-Tech Molle-Lok. Brilliant kit. Not flexible, but dead solid and dead easy to put on and off. ITW Nexus Annex Clips Also great kit, a little more tricky to attach than Molle-Lok, but much easier than the MALICE Clips

Chris Claycomb RWL34 and Natural Tufnol Hunter/Bushcraft Utility £200 posted UK (Tracked 48 age Verified) - PayPal Originally started as one of three or four variations on a theme that I was playing with looking for my ideal small travel knife. I picked one of the others and this has...

Blended natural and black deer hair dubbed bodies.

Well, actually, I was starting to wonder where you were. I had imagined that you were so deep in the Iron Age that you did not have internet. I am so sorry to hear that it was something else altogether! Hope you heal swiftly. Chris

I understand better. I think the shelter like Tony has at the Moot, made of pipes, a bit of a pain to put up, but pretty sturdy. I have friends who have been building their own house for several years and have several such shelters to hold tools and materials in (what is left of) the garden...

I would think you would not want a floor in the tent, and would want to be able to open doors or roll up walls for through ventilation. I would have tended to go with a large tarp rather than a tent, but only if the tools were only out for use, not multi-day storage. I have had tents in my...

:slap::rolleyes: If someone knows you and knows you are just joking, that is funny as hell. If they don't, its not funny at all. Lets not take a thread about wildlife spotting off topic with a further detour into blow pipes and related poisons. :rolleyes:

MOD Note. Thread edited. The original post has now been edited in line with forum rules. Clearly state the price you want to sell for. No soliciting for bids. Link to bidding site removed. Good luck Chris
