I've seen a lot written about this, and to be honest, there is only the way that is correct for you. It also depends on the pack you're using. I pack my LK70 frame pack differently to my Sabre 45 and so on. Generally, though, I follow what you might call a "Packing matrix" for my gear. Spare...

I can, but you would have to wait until after I get back from the Moot for me to post it, plus the additional postage cost would have to be factored in. I'm currently in Saudi Arabia, and I'm flying home, picking up my daughter and my camping kit and driving straight to Wales.

I'm gauging some interest here. I've got a Pathfinder S/S canteen set and MOLLE pouch that is surplus to requirements. I upgraded to the Ti version, so the stainless one is just sitting in a box. Does anyone want to take it off my hands at the Moot? I'm flying back to the UK for it in a couple...

I’ve got one of the BG knives, I’ve abused it for years now and it’s stil in decent condition. Ok, it doesn’t hold the best edge, but it’s entirely serviceable. Surprisingly comfortable in the hand too.

I’m heading down for the 2nd week, so I’ve got a week to go before setting off. Looking forward to it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I can, I’m going to be in a car this time, so I can bring it along if you want a look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Coalcracker?

Work(sharp) in progress… I’m playing with my new Worksharp precision sharpener. It’s doing quite a good job so far. I’m a bit worried about the wear on the coarsest grit plate, but I can get replacement plates from Worksharp apparently. It’s doing a good job though. I’d be better off with my...

No, it’s ok. While it’s not “on topic”, so to speak, it’s still pertinent information, and relates to the knife in question, as it doesn’t have a super hard steel blade. I’ll get to the update once I’ve finished putting a better edge on the blade. It’s slow going because I don’t have all my...

It’s a trade off. Harder steel holds an edge better, but it can be more brittle and harder to sharpen in the field. You pays your money, you takes your choice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’ve had a hankering for one of these knives for about 35 years, ever since I saw one advertised in the old Survival Aids catalogue. I suspect that quite a few of us who are of a certain age will look back with fond memories of that publication… Anyway, since I’m back in the uk at the moment...

I’m in isolation for the next 10 days, I’ve just flown back from Saudi, and I’ll b getting my second jab the day I get out…..

Got one. Heinnie got them back in stock, so I’ve ordered one from them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’ll have had a PCR test a couple of days before I arrive. I’ll get a test when I get home from the moor though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Cheers, I can’t believe I didn’t try there. I used to be in that shop at least once a month when I lived in North Wales… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’m looking for an Ontario USAF Survival Knife. Does anyone have one they want to move on? Heinnie are out of stock. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I'm still packed from last time... I had to fly back to Saudi shortly after the last moot (Was that really two years ago!) so the rucksack got dumped in the storage unit at the flat in Scotland. I've got 10 days in quarantine to sort out my stuff before I go.

The Helikon-Tex E&E pouch looks around the right size.

Well, I've booked for Hermione and I for 5 days. Looks like my usual spot might still be ok, I'll have to see though. I'll have Hermione with me, so I might need a new location anyway. I'll just have to go with the flow a bit.

That’s my brew kit on the go.
