    Extrema Ratio knife.

    I'd be interested to hear your thoughts also. It's more the 6mm spine that puts me off buying ER kit. I like the term "price above my curiosity budget"

    How to use a Millbank Bag

    well the water won't be "sterile", but you will have effectively pasturised your water. so most of the bugs will be dead. :rolleyes:;) like you say, boiling water, a good rolling boil: big bubbles = no troubles :cool: cheers, and.

    Do you have a black bottom??

    Pots live in a dedicated stuff sack. Chunks get cleaned/scraped off as and when. Inside is clean. Mors says it is more efficient with a black pot. A tight fitting lid probably has more effect on efficiency. Inside of pot is always clean.

    very cool article thanks. there appears to be no index of the archer's kit. simple enough though it may be. extraordinary to think that what appears to be a kent pattern hatchet has been around for so long. now i just need one...... :rolleyes: :D cheers, and.

    Why are bushcraft knives, and survival knives so different?

    yes, rifles too, and even first aid kits. but in terms of "let's talk about designing a survival knife", slightly pointless. no pun intended. :rolleyes: i already have the ultimate in multi-role machetes, :cool: but i'd love to get my hands on a russian survival kit machete. cheers, and.

    Why are bushcraft knives, and survival knives so different?

    the quality most desired in a survival knife is propinquity! :o i know this because i read it in leroy thompson's book on survival knives. i agree most wholeheartedly. ie the best survival knife is the one with you. essentially this disqualifies any big honking knives from the title of survival...

    5 tarp shelter set-ups

    that is awesome!well done chaps. i've never used that first one before. the only point i'd add is that on a gusty night as the wind flaps the tarp about, sometimes unsecured trekking poles can come adrift. or knocked over by fatties moving around inside. :lmao: a handy Aframe at the entrance...

    Fiskars billhook

    I can only reitrrate the above sentiments. Fiskars brush hooks are awesome. Roving Rich is remarkably stingy. He borrowed mine for a while, when i had it back rich went out and bought his own. There is no higher praise than this! :D Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

    British military golok machete

    Apparently made in India. By a company that makes kukris for the Indian army. Imported by Webtex and sold with a poorly fitting bayonet sheath. Quite a few have turned up broken. But if it works it works! And I agree with you on the size issue. Cheers, And. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

    British military golok machete

    yeah the 10 inch goloks aren't the real thing. they're a made in india, not very good clone. the martindale No2 goloks are longer and have a slight distal taper. they also have the martindale crocodile on the side. grammar nazis eh? who'd have 'em? :lmao: cheers, and.
