    Heads up - Post office not sending sharps after 22nd April

    UK knife law has always been ambiguously worded. We’ve seen this way back with regard to compression locks and button locks where the blade can drop out under gravity. There used to be a problem with customs flicking blades out with a wrist flick and confiscations as gravity knives. I remember a...

    Boiled eggs and coffee

    The pan that was always referred to as ‘the egg pan’ when I was growing up never did that. What’s the black? The only thing I thought it might be is aluminium oxide, but there aren’t any compounds in the eggs that would react to make anything black. We have very chalky alkaline water here, as...

    What fungi did you spot today?

    That is Ganoderma for sure. Mushrooms haven’t really happened yet, and I’m about as south as you can get in the UK. Been plugging it down with rain over the last week or so, with a load this evening too. It’s also very mild, so I consider those ideal conditions. Fungi seem to have their own...

    Sold Helikon Tex Patriot Heavy Fleece Jungle Green Large

    Worn but only enough to know that a white Jack Russell and dark fleeces don’t mix. :rolleyes: I’ll carefully run a lint roller over it prior to posting. £40 inc postage.

    For Sale Brandit M65 Giant Jacket

    Wore this a couple of times, but not for me. Thick liner is pretty much an insulated jacket on its own. Size L. £50 inc postage.

    Swisschamp XXLT…price advice?

    You need to set a price with fees. No fishing for the best offer or discussion in the Classifieds. It’s an easy knife to price, not rare or a one off custom. Your price should cover postage (age verified), PayPal fees, and it would be sensible to state it’s not for sale to under 18.

    Civil disagreement

    People, immature people, feel increasingly futile and impotent, and are therefore prone to proclaiming their opinion as truth to bolster their insecurities. Imposing self will with righteous indignation gives them a buzz. In the case of some American politicians it’s visible almost as addiction...

    How to legally dispose of an Air Rifle in Scotland 2024

    I’d be phoning the shops for advice, not visiting.

    Boiled eggs and coffee

    Probably not, it’s pretty common in parts of the world to put your eggs in the kettle to cook.

    Ticks

    Last tick I found on the dog was about small lentil size and the tick twister was in the med kit in the camper and out of reach. I bent a bit of thin wire, paper clip or stripped food tie would do, crimped a fold in the end with pliers and dragged that through her fur. Snagged and removed it...

    Heavy dutuy waterproof jacket recs?

    Another vote for the local farm supplies. These guys all wander about in the same gear, year in year out, gilets or body warmers, Hoggs of Fife check shirts, waxed canvas jackets, lot of Ridgeline stuff for the shepherds who are really out in horrible weather but not over exerting, usually...

    Tool Roll suggestion.

    That looks sensible, way better than the canvas tool bag I was using for the campervan. Can’t find a thing in those bags and end up tipping it upside down. I’ve just transferred everything to a box, but do need a travel kit.

    Sold Civivi Elementum

    I have 2 of these, one in orange/plain blade and this classy burgundy G10/black. I haven’t used this one, though I have dragged it gently over a strop a few strokes to remove a couple of discoloured patches off the cutting edge. It’s D2, it likes usage not storage. The Elementum is just the...
