Just did a Google search on the image, the sellers of it that I found are all selling it as a tea light lantern, so I’d say no, just tea lights. :)

Oh dear, is it one of those. It’s really going to play havoc with my pedantic nature then!:banghead: :)

This is what I was wondering, there is a book called Wild Food by a Jason Hill, published, I think, in the 1940s. Turns out I actually had the Mears/ Hillman Wild Food book, I’d bought it when buying Ray Mears’ books when highly reduced, to add to my Bushcraft collection, totally forgot about...

Sorry Alex, I hadn’t read your post correctly, I thought you were the seller.

Thanks Alex, wanted to check, are you left handed? Is it for left handed people?

Can I just check, is your Gransfors large carving axe for left handed people. My understanding is, if you’re right handed, the longer, slightly concave bevel should be on the left side when holding the axe in your right hand with the handle pointing to the floor?

Where did you get that, looks nice. Had a look on Ali, but didn’t see any Petrified ones I liked, apart from a folding one that was shaped like a shark when open, I particularly liked the blade profile, the PFE10, it has what I think, might be called a Wharncliffe shaped blade. I like a flat...

I didn’t know that, I’m glad I got the hive expansion one in titanium. I’d been dithering for quite a few years before committing. It wasn’t cheap, but so light, you can just permanently pack it whether you need it or not.

Plumbers get “plumber’s flu” off they breathe in the PPF whatever it is thread tape when soldering. Because a birds respiration and circulation is far, far faster than ours, the fumes kill them. The lady worker at the factory (who had a baby with severe defects) described a multitude of thumps...

I think it looks really good, as if it was actually there at the siege of Stalingrad. I might give mine a similar treatment when I get a chance.

Same here with non-stick, although I tend to avoid it on principle anyway. My grandma bought one of the first Tefal saucepans when they first came out, she also used a metal spoon in it and by the time she passed way, maybe 10 or 15 years later, it was bare metal apart from the room! In the...

I think the biggest tool would be to give young people in deprived areas hope, jobs worth having and above all real, decent positive role models in youth clubs, to catch them early. A hell of a lot of knife attacks involve kitchen knives. They will always be able to access weapons of some...

Supposedly the aluminium/ dementia thing has been debunked, I would be more worried about non-stick finishes, having seen a documentary about it and how they lied to their female staff, who were having offspring with birth defects.

That had me chuckling right to the end, I wonder what his neighbours were thinking? Hilarious!

They are a great little shovel, so sturdy. I use mine in the garden. I did file an edge on one side, but regret it a bit now, as it’s not really up to much. I might try to get a new one. I do like how yours looks without the black paint on, I thought you’d charred the handle to get it dark like...

I love my cast iron and copper pans, got rid of most of my alumium ones ages ago, apart from my trusty Indian style pressure cooker (Prestige).

Interesting, ever since I watched Simon in the Woods’ video where he made a meal using one- the first time I’d seen it, I wanted one, it just looked really cool and steam punkish! I’ve just resisted because I have a perfectly servicable one, that is actually meant to be for curries, it has the...

Wouldn’t you use the same stuff you use on breathable coats?

I just checked, it's a Sofirn SC01, but sadly it’s no longer available.
