Yes. Me neither, rather want to go bushcrafting... But I get it done though! :biggthump. Favourite subject is english..... mmm.... :biggthump
Now where here: what can I do better in english? I mean, a lot of you are english, so I guess you know it? :roll:

OK heres mine then - these few items are the essentials without which life might not be possible (hence the name possibles bag) - you might call it a 'crafters' survival kit then again you might not.

Everything else goes in a day sack but even then I still practice carry less by knowing more.

PS James I'll keep you to that!!

How do you carry your belt, do you have it in the belt loops or do have over?

 

[RovingArcher]

Gary, I really like your belt pouch/blade combination. I used to carry a setup very similar, many years ago that was made of Buffalo, but as things like that go with me, I gave it away to someone in need.

 

[Gary]

Belt goes through trouser loops which is easy enough as I wear green army lightweight trousers.

RA it is a good kit and as I say means the essentials are on the thing I am likely to take off last - my trousers!

 

[ScottC]

The question now is what possible pouch you have. I am in need of one, any reccomendations?

 

[Gary]

Scott easiest thing is a small military pouch - first aid or otherwise, only problem with these is a little bulk.

Leather pouches are expensive - around the £65 mark for a quality one. But you get what you pay.

Or you can make your own - visit a charity shop buy an old leather case or some such and make one.

I'm currently looking for one of the round flap womens shoulder bags that's around 6" across so that I can convert it to a belt bag. One of these days the church or SPCA thrift shops will have one come up for sale.

 

[Gary]

I may be able to get a couple like mine - the guy hand makes them, and the leather forming alone takes 24 hrs - but if there is enough interest it might be worth it as i could order in bulk.

Thoughts?

 

[RovingArcher]

A good leather possibles bag or pouch is very traditional, has good eye appeal and like Gary said, is a good kit.

Gary, if I were living in your area, I'd be an owner of a fine pouch such as you are carrying.

 

[Gary]

Thanks RA - may be I'll make you a honoree Essex boy one day and send you a pouch as a gift! :biggthump Be good to see it at a pow wow!

And your right a good leather pouch is a thing of great beauty and more importantly it is a very personal thing which adapts to suit the owner - often reflecting the owners character - leather has that magical quality of continuing to live and change long after its host being has passed into dust. It develops character with age and with age becomes a cherished friend.

I'd certainly be intersted if the price was reasonable.
I have the kit to make my own but not the time...

 

[steve a]

Me too, let us know if it's a possibility.

 

[RovingArcher]

Gary, you are most welcome and thank you, I'd be honored. I have relatives in your neck of the woods, just havn't met them, so here's a :wave: just in case they are watching. :roll:

Your right, leather gets better with age. I never see a real nice leather wallet in the shops, only ones that belonged to others! If anyone here or at BB could make me a wallet i'm sure i'd be very willing to buy! (not this month though, may have to wait until next payday!).

 

[Gary]

OK as we know quality doesnt come cheap - I have spoken to the guy and he is willing to produce them but the price will be £50 plus £2.00 for postage. This is much cheaper many other possibles pouches out there.

That is for the pouch pictured with the brass sam brown stud, all hand made and stitched.

I must point out this isn't a Bearclaw item guys and as such has nothing to do with Bearclaw - so anyone interested?

 

[jakunen]

Bit too rich for me at the moment, guess I'll have to make my own.

 

[Seagull]

This one,s easy!

The only thing it contains, is one of the wifes ramekin dishes.
T,job is still under construction and thats what I,m using for a mandrel.

Now, what happened to my creme caramel!

[TheViking]

Well, I just found a nice link! :biggthump

 

[Metala Cabinet]

I'm surprised he left out the wheelbarrow to carry it all in
