    How do I get a cork out of a bottle?

    Get a length of paracord, fold in half, feed the folded end into the bottle till it touches the bottom, invert the bottle so the cork falls to the neck then gently pull the cord downward so the loop end catches the back of the cork and simply pull the cork out. ��

    Saturday afternoon in the Man-shed.

    Ten years ago as a novice bushcrafter a friend gave me a Helle blade for a project, but back then I had little knowledge, experience or tools to create a satsifactory job for a knife handle.,, Finally got round to taking the plunge yesterday, It was still a first attempt into the unknown for me...
