    Personally I always put my mat under my bivi (not in it) and a ground sheet (old lightweight poncho) under my mat, job done.

    Carinthia Defence 4 or Swedish army down filled winter bag?

    Warm Camp Trousers

    M65s with the button in liner, you can't go wrong, and nice to wear in your sleeping bag when you need to. You can get the liners pretty cheap on eBay. As for M65s, best trousers ever made in my opinion, but getting hold of him at a reasonable price is not as easy as it used to be. One other...

    How do you carry your edged tools?

    Just to reiterate what someone else was saying, good belt worn on the outside of everything usually does the trick. Also the belt sits higher meaning you can get away with something light like the Laplander swaying about a bit on the leather cord.
