I remember reading many years ago a quote along the lines of "Any knowledge you glean wasn't yours to begin with... so you have a duty to pass it on" I've met a few people during my (non bushcrafty) career who hoarded knowledge and acted as if any skills or knowledge other people possessed...

I've used quite a few different fujis over the years, taken quite a few pics with them and even had some pics published. Generally I would say they are acceptable to pretty good... one thing I have noticed is a tendency to burn out highlights which seems to be a fuji failing (well at least from...

I just saw the last episode of this series which was about Wolves. There was one collared wolf that mysteriously dropped dead, there was talk of poison but it was never explained at the end of the program. Did I miss a bit?

Knife received and very nice it is too. Extra 61p sent by paypal

Payment sent thanks for organising

Firstly I would just like to thank Danzo for his efforts. Quick question to Danzo as he is in touch with Saddler (the chap who organized this group buy).I wondered if you could tell us if there any reason preventing him from posting on here to give us some updates? This the first group...

There is a good discussion and table on flash voltages and digital cameras here http://www.botzilla.com/photo/strobeVolts.html I invested in one of these which means I can use a plethora of old flashes on my digi slrs. They regulate the voltage sent back to the camera...

Previous to the ebay ban I used to buy Rough Rider knives from an ebay trader in the States (TTT knives if remember correctly) who had a good selection and good prices. Does anyone know of a trader in the UK who is stocking the full range? Failing that can someone recommend a US trader. I have...

Just another little snippet but need fire (nodfyr) was actually banned by the church at one point.

I came across the Blizzard Bag searching on the net after the program. Only trouble is they only seem to do them in sliver and olive. The one the presenter had on the program was definitely dayglo orange (mind I am getting older so the memory may be failing me)

I've been lurking on these forums for a while and find them very informative. I was wondering if anyone can help me with the following... There was a "survival challenge" a few weeks back on Channel Five's Gadget Show. Basically they dumped each of the presenters in the Brecons Beacons with...
