    Buffalo - which one is best?

    I have a generator smock and a special 6. The Buffalo is warmer than the Rab, but I find that the Buffalo breathes better than the Rab which can feel clammy when your working hard. I'd say both would be too much insulation if you run hot. My next Buffalo with be an Active Light smock with the...

    Stuart Mitchell "Survival Knife" Prototype (Pic Heavy)

    Really nice knife Stuart, I'm liking that a lot. It's great to see the development process, do you plan on another round of testing and design changes if needed? Does the full flat grind on the latest blade have a secondary bevel? Atb Mark

    Buffalo Shirt Help Please

    I've had a Special 6 shirt for over a year now and think its great. The only problem being that it's too warm for all but the coldest conditions. I did see a very similar Buffalo shirt a while ago but didn't think to look at the name. It was just like the S6 but with a lighter pertex outer and...

    Airguns?

    I've just started with airguns again after 15 years using centre fire rifles, and I'm really enjoying it. I went the whole hog and bought myself a Daystate Mk4is. Just tucked into a rabbit curry made with the first two rabbits that fell to the new rifle. Nom nom nom ... Atb Mark Sent from...

    Thanks for the ID gents, i'll hold off eating it though! I'm enjoying mushroom foraging you never know what is going to crop up next. Thanks Mark Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The Ultimate "What is this Fungi?" thread.

    Here is one I found today. The pure white colour stood out well in depths of the wood. Found growing on birch stumps in a birch and spruce wood in north east Scotland. The bigger ones were 120mm or so in size. I thought they may be some sort of oyster mushroom, but the flesh is very...

    Belt Pouch

    Sorry, ignore my post and PM, I only read as far as 'belt' before replying. Ian Atkinson at Leodis leather makes some really nice stuff, there are plenty of great makers on here too. I'm sure one will be along soon. Mark Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Belt Pouch

    I got my brown belt from Geoff Wood, he's a member on BB. I'll PM you his e-mail. He did great job on mine and had plenty of options. I'd recommend him. Mark Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks again Geoff, your expertise is much appreciated. I seem to spend half my life with my head stuck in Rodger Phillip's book at the moment. I'm hooked and it's frustratingly addictive! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks Geoff, I can't find anything similar. The R. popinalis is the closest. I'll see if it has a mealy smell next time I see it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The Ultimate "What is this Fungi?" thread.

    These are causing me a bit of a dilemma. Both growing on sandy grassland next to each other. I think this is Macrolepiota konradii. The ring is free to move on the stem, but this isn't mentioned in Rodger's book. It also states that the scales are large whereas the ones I have pictured...

    The Ultimate "What is this Fungi?" thread.

    This one caught my eye today, purely because of the number of them and they looked quite tasty, although I'm sure that means they're probably poisonous. They were on Heath/dune grassland and growing in elongated groups of twenty or thirty. I've no idea on this one. Any thoughts...

    The Ultimate "What is this Fungi?" thread.

    On a bit of a tangent, i have Rodger Phillips book, the River Cottage handbook and a Collins mushrooms & Toadstools pocket guide. Can anyone recommend another with good photographs to cross reference with the ones I have already? I realise there are lots of options, but some have poor photos...
