Hmm so I guess I will do a patina, so I just drive the knife into a potato, and put it in vinegar?

I really don't have access to stuff like that as I don't see my father anymore, and I had my own tools/everthing I needed in my shed :(

I've just read that a toothbrush and toothpaste works OK to get the black patina off.

But I've seen pictures on google images, and it looks terrible.

Hmm OK thanks guys :)

My Mora Clipper blade has a black stain to it, what is this, and can I get rid of it? because it looks bad.

Hmm, as the moisture makes up alot of the weight, so if you slowly dry it out, and it weighs the same weight twice in a row, that means there is no water molecules left in the wood, thanks mate!

I think A-Z of Bushcraft is good.

I have a 4 year old black and tan smooth haired Jack Russell, he's nasty. Boy.

Damn that's a nice puffball, me and my father went not so long ago mushroom picking, and had a puffball the size of a football!

Yes. Thanks mate.

Hmm I have alot of quartz but how can I make that into a block or whatever to sharpen a knife?

I would like to know how to do this as I don't have a stone (except a grey one, which is dark grey and then light grey on the other side and has a picture of a diamond on there, please tell me what this is) and would be useful in the wild if you left a stone at home, or even worse, in a survival...

My biggest waste of money? I used to earn alot of money on a hacking forums, and since my paypal was closed for obvious reasons, I do not get anymore. But my biggest waste when I say that it either was junk or broke, was a replica L96A1 gas BB gun, £250 for that, £30 for magazines, £25 for...

Well atleast it wasn't any worse than that.
