For the record, in most cases, dialling 911 in the UK will connect you to the emergency services.

The DBK Youtube channel had one in their latest video and even on the model they had for review, one of the bolts was loose. Seems like QC on these is questionable.

Looks very nice, but I'm a bit surprised by the finish (or lack of?) with the tang sitting proud of the scales. I'd think for £65 it would be flush?

Oh really! Does it smooth the finish off? I'd assumed Ti would be too hard to sand down.

I use a long handled titanium spoon, an Aliexpress special as others have pointed out here. My one bit of advice, if you go down that road, is to spend a couple more quid and spring for one with a polished bowl/spork end - it rankles my brain every time I take a mouthful of the rough, raw...

Apologies if this has already been covered, but: knowing when to call for help. I've just done a Wilderness First Responder course with R2Ri at Plas y Brenin in North Wales (excellent course), and as part of it, we visited Ogwen Mountain Rescue centre. They mentioned a common theme among the...

Fantastic job there @Sooty22 ! Last weekend I tried making my first tote bag. Cotton calico for the straps, pockets and lining. Flecktarn cotton ropstop for the upper. 1000D Cordura for the lower.

Let us know when tickets go on sale for the museum

These look very interesting. So is the idea you portion up your stew/chilli/soup etc into the moulds and then just defrost the giant food cubes when needed? It would definitely save on ziploc bags which I don't love. This would be my No.1 I have an Oxo Goodgrips silicone spatula and it ensure...

Just in case another recipe needs adding to the pot: https://www.lakeland.co.uk/inspiration/recipe/joe-wicks-bad-boy-chilli-con-carne/ This is the 'Lean in 15' Joe Wicks version. It's absolutely our go-to at home when we want an easy Sunday afternoon cook which makes enough for dinner and...
