If you know what you are doing the Opinel Carbone No8 alone is surely good enough. ;)

@DB-71 Ask @TLM If he is willing to help you with that.

Terävä knives are sold exclusively by Varusteleka or second hand. A stainless Mora Garberg with leather sheath is the better option in my opinion for most civil users.

No, compared to the prices that people are willing to pay for such knives in Britain they are cheap. Joker in Spain recently came up with an even more affordable Woodlore clone though. You are suddenly asked to pay only what it's really worth: 100 €...

I already noticed that you don't get sweaty in the SF1 and SF2 as soon as expected from an experienced point of view. It seems to me that the moisture transport of the British made Snugpak sleeping bags works outstanding good.

You can get a used Snugpak SF2 here: https://bushcraftuk.com/community/threads/army-sleeping-systems-and-dd-hammock-setup.163315/

If it's adult that's an option. But teenagers should get exclusively the best of the best and only what you already tried out yourself over an extended period of time. Teenagers and children trust in your experience, they don't try alternatives and the given equipment gets a sentimental value...

I recently asked an older German soldier what he thinks about his new issued soft shell jacked and he told me that it's great for railway train use and nothing else because outdoors either too cold or too sweaty. That fits exactly my experience with civil versions. I wear them off around the...

Alternatively you can get the PFM40. That's a replica of the Swedish mess kit that's made of stainless steel and sold by Dave Canterbury.

Hilleberg offers to change the tent floor for a very sensible price. Just call them!

The Snugpak Antarctica is recommended for -20°C comfort temperature. I find already the entire Snugpak Special Forces system pretty warm around the freezing point although you can leave the outer SF1 partially open if you want and it's recommend to -15°C comfort temperature. I think the SF2...

Or a bird cage.

Valerianella locusta during the cold period. Cucumis sativus during the warm period. Mediranean frost resistant herbs at the entrance.

The Snugpak Special Forces 2 isn't tight. I suggest to have a closer look to it. The SF bivvy bag is very light and both work together very well. But if you sleep in warm base layers anyway the SF1 might be enough for you. I use it myself down to 0°C and recommend it until +5°C to average...

The 14c28n in the stainless Garberg is idiot proof in every point.

Pinewood trousers also come with long legs, are also overpriced but not as much as FR. Uniforms also come in a lot of different sizes. But doesn't matter, you should wear what fits you of course. I just wouldn't make a science out of waxing plastic trousers, and FR trousers are mainly made of...

Well, the FR trousers are just over priced polycotton trousers like every others too. Would someone gift me a pair, whyever, I would throw them approximately once a week into the washing machine together with 2 sets of underwear. And I simply wouldn't wax them. If I travel I use a set of...

I mean the trailer size. That's what I call professional and what's in my opinion the right size after felling a few trees in a private garden. That's nothing to buy or store for a private user. That's why I call it professional.

I worked with Stihl hedge scissors that are great because very light. Pretty expensive though. Otherwise I would always choose the gasoline version because it's simply faster, lawnmower, rucksack leaf blower, chain saw, whatever. It depends on the size of your garden though. If there is...

If you see how fast a professional shredder works you will be shocked.
