I think there is a danger of getting bogged down with the assisted opening/ flick/ gravity knife thing. There are so many knives from big manufacturers that open one handed that I doubt they will come out to be flick knives. (But they may, the lock knife thing was perverse) The big one, for me...

Looks like a well thought out kit for what you describe. I am sure you do but it's worth reminding people to carry a bottle of water on the underground. Incidents like this can stop the trains leaving passengers stuck underground. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Ventile leaks in torrential rain. So does Paramo or G1000. There are other reasons to choose them but being the most waterproof isn't one of them. The surplus Goretex and some others out there are soft faced and not noisy.

Just a few points Superglue was developed to repair gun sights not for medical purposes. It was then tried for medical purposes but found to be an irritant and exothermic so they developed Dermabond (2-octyl cyanoacrylate) which is for medical use. It's not strictly first aid, it is treatment...

YHPM thanks

Both now sold thanks

No worries you have PM

I haven't used this one, I have used others including the lighter Terra Nova and three would be squeeze and condensation etc would also add up but it may work in an emergency. Rory you have PM.

First up is a Terra Nova Bothy 2 in red. Unused bought for use by others but I really have too many other Bothys etc. for this to ever come into play. £15 delivered including fees etc. Secondly I have an MOD Silva Type 4/54 in Mills. Again bought for use by others and again too many. £10...

Yes please.

I do like the look of the duo I do have a lighter 2 person tent but it is really cramped. This seems really roomy for the weight especially if you carry walking poles anyway. It has 2 entrances if the weather is good enough to leave the awning up and unlike the Solo has vents. I really really...

I got a standard one and it seems fine to me. I didn't even spot the better quality. I am up for some different designs down the line if they come up.
