Excellent, thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try.

Another gorgeous piece, Mark. I've been working on a coffee scoop from a piece of walnut, but I've had the blank for years and it's seasoned like granite. I (and my hook knife) dread going back to it, but we'll get there eventually!

A Victorinox Forester M Grip. Wanted something pocket sized that could cover off cooking/food prep as well as a bit of campcraft. I looked at the Rangergrip, but felt it was slightly overkill. So far love it except for the liner lock which, for me as a right-hander, operates totally...

Just to add that I agree with Chris and Teedee - I can't see how there is any legal issue with you owning, gifting or selling this knife. Part of the definition of a zombie knife is that it displays: "images or words (whether on the blade or handle) that suggest that it is to be used for the...

Just wondering what the source is for this new law being applied, I couldn't find anything?

I've never seen the carve-your-own Opinel before. It would make a fabulous gift, but it seems to only be available from Opinel with €17 delivery. For my money, I do like micarta for durability. My next-to-be-tested knife is a Joker Bushlord with unstabilised walnut scales. It's very grippy, but...

Hi, just checking if this was sold in the end?

All received - cracking bag. Many thanks!

I don't know if it's the same, but when the battery is low on my Seiko Kinetic, the second hand moves in 2-second jumps to indicate it needs charging.

Have PM'd you Janice :)

Hey Scruff, I'll take that thanks. I'll message you now.

The new MT900 Insulated sleeping mat from Decathlon/Forclaz/Simond. 3x warmer (R5.4) and twice as thick as my old one. Bought abroad too, so made a bit of a saving. (Just tested it on the living room floor and woke myself up snoring so it's a good start)

Very tempting! I wa about to buy the Dutch hooped bivvy, but this is turning my head Was the Dutch model on your radar at all? And does this model have the mosquito net fitted?

That was my understanding, thanks for confirming.

Was this back in the day when Ray was still a regular instructor, or more recent years when having Ray is a paid extra? If I was to pay £1k extra for the 'Ray version' of a course, I'd be a little miffed if that was just to watch him go fishing.

Thanks you for the replies. I've taken the plunge and signed onto the Intermediate course with Frontier. While I was taken with bushcraft fever, I enquired about the Journeyman with Ray as well. One of their prerequisites is that you've done Woodlore's fundamental course. I've asked if having...

I'm looking to do some more learning this year, having done the Woodlander with Wild Human (formerly Woodsmoke) last year. Frontier Bushcraft's dates work well for me, so I was just wondering if anyone had any experience of their teaching (or specifically that course), or any recommendations...

An ex-demo Olight i1R EOS for €11. Visited my favourite outdoors shop in Valencia while I'm here (Aventura Gimenez), hoping to come away with some new cutlery - they have a very comprehensive selection of Spanish brands like Joker, Muela, Cudeman, J&V etc. I had my eye on a Joker Artica in...

This was my first thought...

Does anyone own one of these? Looks like a stunning knife.
