Hi all and hope this finds you all well, I posted recently asking if anyone had any experience with the Amok Draumr 5.0 setup and was surprised to see there were no responses. I had expected them to have had a little more of a following but it seems they are less popular than I imagined. I...

Hey all, hope this finds you all well. I have just purchased one of the above including the mat and Tarp. I shall be testing it out next week so looking for any tips and experiences. Thanks in advance.

Ayup all and hope this finds you all well. So mini "Peanut Lighters" or small keyring type lighters, what's your experience? I am not talking ferro or steel spark producers here but instead the liquid fuel spark activated source of flame. Over the years I have had several variations from...

Hey all, I have only ever used DD tarps as they have ticked every box. Must have worn out about 3 in say 15 years or so? I will need a 3x3 at a minimum whilst I would consider a time bit bigger. Collective thoughts appreciated all but I need to get one ordered today incase the lovely postie...

Ayup all. Couple of photos from a quick overnighter. Our kid needed some assistance with laying a floor so he enlisted my self and a few friends. The sweetener being a permission from our better halves to grab a quick night out. Menu was steak n booze. One of the lads better halves was...

Hope this finds you all well in 2023. I haven't done a jot of leather work in many many moons so with Christmas just passed I decided to jump back in. I had an axe sheath that was handing by a thread and also a new knife that was being irked by its kydex sheath so these two were to ease my self...

Hi All and Happy new year :) I have decided to give Kydex a go with the aim of making a few leather/Kydex hybrid setups. I have done the usual and watched a few Youtube Video`s so obviously I am now an expert on all things Kydex :happy: Whilst I get the basic principals what I am after is a...

Ayup all. Its been a while since I posted some pics of trips so thought I would just chuck them all in one. Like most time in the woods has been a rare occurrence over the past couple of years. Anyways enough babble and onto the pics. This was last weekend. I dug out an old bow that was used...

Hi folks, Collective flashoholics advice please. I have had many head lamps over the years but recent research is coming up with a bewildering array. Also the price range is pretty vast too. I don't mind paying a few quid for a lamp as I have in the past but the likes of petzl seem to be...

Hi All, Every now and then I stand on the end of the virtual internet Pier looking towards the horizon hoping that one day, one day, a William Henry Legacy might pop up. So if anyone has one sitting in dust, unappreciated, knows of a rumor nay a whisper or just wants to do a fellow a big...

Hi all, I am looking at going back to the floor for a change. Swinging in the trees for a long while now but I really miss waking up on the ground, making a brew and enjoying the view whilst still in my sleeping bag. So I believe its an exped down mat? I have tried all sorts in the past and...

Ayup all. So for a long time now I have been looking for two knives that have evaded me. First the Helle Futura. This was my first decent knife and I gave it away to a good friend. Would love another. See various ones in the states but the sites don't check out. Would like UK or preferably a...

Quick scan of the forum and there are a few old threads about but most are now broken. So I am looking to remove the useless (for me) loops from the front of my SF and get something on there like another pocket and or a molle panel maybe? I would like to have my FAK on the outside of my bag...

Hey all. I am looking for a small kit that I can throw on my pack when heading out. I am after something around say 4" by 7" say, preferably molle, clam shell but it needs to be able to take a variety of lures, weights, floats and hooks. There are lots of soft options out there but that would...

Hey all, collective knowledge being better and easier than google :) To make camping a little easier as we are now 4 I decided to buy a trailer. Its only a small one but will take our big bell tent and some other toys to keep the kids entertained. Next thing was to sort a Tow bar so purchased...

Ayup all. Was out last weekend with a couple of friends and my lad. This was his first time on a "two nighter.." and he did me proud as he always does. Chipped in when asked, no tears except for grasping the nettle, "literally" to use an over used term :) ,, poor lad. Slept on his own in his...

I have been offered an old tent. Going to pick it up regardless but wondering if anyone has a clue what it is? I hav a picture of a canvas back and its about 15 years old. So anyone remember them?

So its that time of the year again. :aarghh::yuck: Until recent weeks I have managed to get by with "over the counter" Loretazine, Certazine etc. They take the edge off a little. Now its only proper prescription Fexofenadine. Fexofenadine is a life saver when it comes to the evil pollen...
