Hi all. Been a while since I’ve been on here. Hope you are all well. I’ve recently moved house and on packing up found a long knife or maybe short sword that I think I found in my dads garage about 25 years ago and kept without knowing anything about it. I don’t know if it’s really old or...

I was at a historical re-enactment today and was admiring these cooking fires everyone had. Unfortunately I can't find the website the guys say they were from, reinactment market I think it was. Does anyone recognise these? They seem to be on four legs that are maybe threaded and have...

Mr mears is now selling these on his website https://www.raymears.com/Bushcraft_Product/1310-Vihe-Vaellus-Laavu-Mini-Shelter/ i found a couple of threads from 5 years back on the forum as it seems these have been around in Finland for years does anyone have one? I thought it would make a good...

W That was my first thought too Mike. Weren't there supposed to be two handbooks published late 2014? This book does however look stunning. Hope it does get published.

I have a copy of this booklet, pm me your email and I can send you it. It's not really secret but it was only available if you went to the shop at keilder castle.

Hi all, ive been getting out and about with my 2.5 year old son, cooking on a stove and setting up tarps in the woods for an hour or two just in woods with public access. I'd like to do a fuller day with him, maybe set up a proper shelter and have a real camp fire (closely supervised of...

On Sunday I was out walking with my wife and two boys (ages 2.5 years and 6 months) on the riverside path between wylam and Clara vale. I was ahead with the pram and was about to start delving into the undergrowth for birch bark and kindling when I saw the Mrs was talking to a man. I thought he...

Has anyone been to one of these shows yet? Are they any good? Tickets have been released for the one at Gateshead which is in April but I was reading the blurb and it said the show was made up of stories of other peoples survival in extreme circumstances. That sounds a bit like going back to...

First pouch swapped with shack. Second one still available folks.

Hi all, As I've mentioned previously I have two small children. As a consequence I tend to be up early. I've seen a book recently call Art Before Breakfast suggesting people take the time to be creative with art in whatever free time they have, not necessarily before breakfast but you get the...

We use to teach a lot of first aid to the scouts as one of my fellow leaders was very qualified in the subject from leading expeditions etc. They use to complain that they got taught this all in school as well. I remember thinking it was very positive to have first aid on the school curriculum...

Also got a second similar pouch, same size but different belt loops and closure.

I was having a clear out over the weekend and realised I still have these pouches. I haven't used them in a couple of years and doubt I ever will. If they are of any use to anyone please PM me. I'd rather see them used than gathering dust. Open to offers for swaps.
