    Ray Mears - tarp criticism

    But does it pack as small? Thats the only reason i do it. I stuff my sleeping bag as all the air can escape and so it makes no difference

    Ray Mears - tarp criticism

    I fold and then roll, purely for space saving. My DD 3x3 has gone from barely fitting in the bag it comes in (Stuffed) to being about the size of a 40oz klean kanteen. That is worth more to me than having to replace a £35 tarp every few years, not that mine has failed on me yet :)

    Hammock from deal extreme

    Has anyone tried these from dx? They look pretty good to me and not a bad price tbh. http://www.dx.com/p/free-soldier-multifunctional-camping-tent-hammock-light-green-434709#.V8MAGMvTXqA Would love to hear your thoughts even if you haven't tried one.

    Tek Loks

    Hi all, Trying to source a few bit to make a kydex sheath for my new anglo arms kalahari. Where do people get their tek loks from? are they just expensive because £14 seems like a lot of money, its almost as much as the knife without the kydex etc. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Anyone have experience with cheap water stones?

    I got a 3000 10000 stone from ebay, was about £7 for a pretty small stone, however, if I use that and finish with autosol equivalent on leather, I pass the paper test every time Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk
