So every one keeps saying they are not needed for stalking animals or tracking. Well, guess the Ghillie suit part of it escapes most peoples notice - they were designed for Ghillies to stalk and shoot deer in, a worn / portable shooting blind if you will. It then was put into military...

Sorry mate - the wifes veto'd me on this one. She said she has got me a jacket but I have to wait for my birthday :) Sorry about that.

PM sent regarding jacket.

When you wake a bear in winter, you owe them 50,000 calories - in short, they'll do their damnest to eat you to get some replacement body fat. Caves in winter where bears live? holy all thats good - what on earth possessed a man to do that? As for the man alseep on the bench and dragged to...

I use mine all summer under an Aussie Basha (Tarp) - The best nights sleep I ever get to be honest. In winter however I'll resort to a neat little hopped bivvi I have, or if theres other people, tents. Reason being is that alot of times there are no trees where I trudge off to, so it makes sense. :)

My thoughts totaly. Three months of feeding it, fattening it, watching it grow - wondering how many rashers you'll get and what it'll taste like... My monies on he ate it.

Leukku from Sweden, Large bushcraft knife and a laplander saw with back up pocket chainsaw for those two foot logs :) Unless I intend being out for extended time then I take a small forest axe instead of the leukku.

Now British Red, I would kindly like to know where the heck you got that from, because I want one. I wore one in Canada a few years back whilst my kit was drying out and it was so damn warm and snug I cried when I had to hand it back. UK brought or overseas?

That is knife PRON! Red, where the heck did that beauty come from? that is just total absolute dream knife material. I am insanely jealous now!

Kenny, you know why dentists have many different shaped heads and necks to their dental pliers? because if you do not grip a tooth squarley, you will shear of the enamel and expose the raw pulp and nerve underneath and it will still be attached to your jaw bone... This will then...

awesome thread. Three years ago I was camping in canada after visiting my cousins place. I was hung out in a hammock and was fast asleep when I felt some thign brush my backside, swinging me gently. I heard some shuffling, low growling and some playful sqeels and thought 'I'll stay still'...

Always awesome to see people getting on well, and its good to know the great outdoors is making your fitness rise a few notches as thats always a bonus! Keep us all updated :) IJ55

Cigarettes, Whiskey and wild, wild women. That should be on his headstone - Sir, I salute you in your passing. May the Lord embrace you as the hero you are.

"I couldn't eat it because there wasn't enough meat so I took it with me and she stayed with me for three months," In short, it got to three months old and I bet the dude ate it. Total badass though - 300 days, all alone. I salute him.

Thats alot of work, and alot to be proud of mate. Teaching the younger generation about bushcraft is an art form as well as a skill. Congratulations mate - you earnt a round of applause!

Love the pins, and as usual, the file work is sublime.

http://www.rhodesianridgebacks.org/puppyadvice.html They are great dogs, strong stock, have beautiful 'pack' orientated natures and are super healthy. You just have to do like you do with all dogs and make sure you use a reputable breeder who is documented and lnows their onions.

Poor workmanship. My mate ordered no less than four before he got one that was not leaking and thats without any use at all! I won't buy one, no way.

you should see them with his kid. The back door opens and one or two will trot out and run to the middle of the lawn, the little one with tumble out the door into the play area and another couple will happily lay down and watch her all day. They are so amazingly intelligent I am bewildered at...

OK, but I have to say now, it is not bed time reading. I went to stay over at a mates house, as he had a new tent he wanted to test out, and decided best way was to bed it in whilst in the back garden. I agreed, and duely gathered up some kit for a weekend and trotted round his place. He...
