During the dry part of the summer you are not even allowed to smoke near these things :o): The oldest one (not torn down 100 yrs ago. I think it was from the end of the Viking Age) was burnt down a couple of yers ago by some devil worshippers

What happend to the attachment ?? :?: I posted the same way as on British Blades, but the attachment do not seem to be uploaded :?: I'll try to put it in the gallery, and link to the above post.

Going through my winter kit these days (it is getting cold you know), and this is my snow shovel.

In the Scandinavian forests you will find lots of it :o): And it is not only good for making a firce fire. Old Norwegian logghouses and cabins were build using this wood. In the good old days the builders went to the forrest and cut off the top of select trees (as much as 10 years before the...

:yikes: :naughty: ..... I better get busy then, as the one I have now is not something that i would be proud to show. Yep, the actual stitching will only take an hour or so depending on the size and type of stitching of cause. The wet forming is another story though. It will take a couple of...

Cotton is definitely not the way to co for underwear used in cold weather. Go for wool underwear ! The Brynje cotton mesh is ok for not so cold weather, but cotton is no good as soon as it gets wet or the weather is extremely cold. If you are going to use it for a wintertrip to the "Land of Nog"...

Well said Steve :biggthump I haven't seen these pouches in real life (Gary will have to show me sometime :o): ), but agree with you completely. Considering the materials and everything involved in making these pouches (leather, dye, thread, antler / bone or brass stud and tools to make the...

Thanks guys ! The grind is the same convex grind as on the ordinary and well known Fällkniven F1 - starting at the spine and then going convex all the way to the edge. The line close to the edge (about 6 mm) is from the lamination (blade is laminated VG10 steel) :Wow: :Wow: :Wow: :Wow...

Customized F1 for sale This is the very first Fällkniven blade that I customized. A guy ordered an H1 and this F1 as a set in the same stabilised wood, and wanted me to etch my name / logo on the opposite side to the Fällkniven logo (something that I not usually do if I...

To me it is the Swazi and Zulu people among whom I grew up. Also the tough bushcrafters of the Shangaan and the Matabele, in addition to two or three Tswana trackers that I have worked with. I have the deepest respect for the culture and superior bush skills of the !Kung and /Gwi bushmen of the...

Nice mini kit you got there Hoodoo !

I have The Art of Flint Knapping by D. C. Waldorf and 20th Century Lithics by D. C. Waldorf - both of them are good. Can't remember where I got mine, might have been at BOSS before they closed their store for non students or alumni, but you can get them at the link that Jeff Wagner posted. I...

That may depend on what type of fuel you fed them. I was sort of thinking about getting a new stove, when Martyn started this thread http://www.britishblades.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4553 on BB. That thread worked as a kick in me butt, and after checking it out, I bought a Nova and a new...

Cheers guys ! :o): seems that you guys also have to pay dearly for some things, good to know that it is not always the other way around :roll:

I always seek out birch burls for any kuksa that I make, as they make the nicest and best looking kuksas of them all. You can of cause make them by splitting a log to carve from, but in my experience these are more likely to crack (although not necessarily, and burls can crack too!) than when...

I agree with everything that Tyr said about the reindeer skin :biggthump Here in Norway we get the dried skins for about £ 18 - 50 or some places as low as £ 5,- depending on quality and where in the country we buy them.
