Athough I've started fires many times with the swedish firesteel, I've failed last time during a rain. Could anyone help me out what should I do in similar circumstances? So, it was raining already for three days when we went to the woods. We have put up a tarp - to protect from direct rainfall...

Does anyone know any news about these Ray Mears books? Why was the publishing postponed?

I've tried a few years ago, but after 4-5 water change, it was still awful bitter, and I gave up. Maybe I was just too impatient?

Great sheath! But I'd be also interested in your Yukon Territory bushcraft experiences. Do you have any account, blog, pictures etc?

Kepis, thanks for the video, but it's not what I'm talking about. Btw, I really like your blog :) The image from the pdf: So it is made by hollowing, and not by removing the whole bark in one piece, like on the video. I'd like to know how to hollow this regular cylinder form with one knife only.

There is no question that the two books are almost the same. Pictures are the same, but the text is not, however very similar. And I would like to know if the errors were also fixed as the author promised a few posts before. So if anybody had the chance to compare them please inform us. I really...

Does anyone know the differences between 'The Survival Handbook in Association with the Royal Marines Commandos' and the'Survival Skills' (both by Colin Towell)? Is that one only the pocket edition, or have any other major changes? Sample pages on the linked site shows that there are some...
