While the silicone would take the heat of the boiling water, I suspect that the heat source might do some damage. You could certainly boil by putting heated rocks into it though. I know you can boil water in a paper bag, but I don't think the silicone would transfer heat fast enough to prevent...

I can't believe its gone, I've visited there many times. I hope they rebuild.

It hit 50c out where I am the other day. Luckily, the humidity hasn't ramped up yet...

All things going according to what I laughingly call "The Plan", I'll be there this year. I'm planning to bring Hermione (Who is now 7!) and Katy may be coming along too.

I actually picked up that canteen the other day. It's very nice. Comparing it to the Pathfinder SS canteen set (I've omitted the stove from the steel set and the bowl from the Ti set, so it's bottle, lid, cup and lid for both) It comes to 625g for Stainless Steel and 309g for Titanium. As...

Is one of the transactions that you're going to complete before leaving (finally) paying me for the Woodlore sheath I sent you last year?

I wonder if you could cut one of them up to fit in the bottom of a pot to use it as a frying pan?

I recently found a youtube channel run by a guy doing demos/tests of military mess kits, there are about 11 videos to date as I recall, Quite entertaining, and not too long. Might be worth a look if you're interested. Orr Wullie Scottish Outdoors

I’ve done that. Several times. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Any idea if I’m ever going to be paid for this item? You received it about 4 weeks ago. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

So, I leave for the Moot on Friday, and we have a winner. I picked up the Condor from Heinnie (fantastic service as usual) Really happy with it so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

That’s great. I’ll see you then. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Train is later than I’d like, but getting in any earlier will double the cost of the ticket. I’ll be arriving on the 1849 train, all things going according to plan.

Just to add, completely unused, I don’t think it’s ever had a knife in it.

There it is, as promised. I can post as soon as you like, or if you’re at the moot I can bring it in person. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’m throwing myself on the mercy of the mob. It’s the first time I’ve been in the UK when the Moot is on in about 6 years. I’ll be getting the train down to the Moot on Friday. Any chance of someone picking me up at the station and giving me a lift into the moot via Tesco. Save me carrying...

I recently got a pocket woodburning stove that came with a windscreen made of fireproof felt. it's supported by thin wire pegs that push through it and hold it up. I've not tried it out yet, but the concept seems sound

I have one of the Spydercos, but mine wasn't customised by Chris. I'm not sure why, I think I was a Mod at the time. *edit*I've been looking back through my messages to find out the maker of my sheath, and it looks like I wasn't a Mod when I got the knife. I became a Mod a couple of months...

Wouldn’t it though. At the last Moot I managed to get to, I had a play with the Wilkinson Sword Survival Knife. It was quite useable despite its size and weight. I wouldn’t mind laying my hands on one, but they’re a bit hard to get hold of these days. I remember lusting after one in the...
