Antoinio does a week long course for the same price as most do for a weekend. He supplies hammocks for everyone to sleep in for...

    Holiday advice anyone?

    Not Bushcraft realated and you may already know this but watch out for doggy electronic shops. I bought a digital camera there (Lanzarote). When I left the shop I texted my brother to check out the camera on the web. He got back to tell me that there was a warning out from UK police about...

    Anyone know anything about electrics?

    Earth wires are required where metal light fittings (mains voltage) are used. The standard ceiling rose and lamp holder made from plastic never used to have an earth wire. The earth wire is included in modern circuits. A plastic ceiling rose will only have a live and neutral going to the...

    Wetterlings

    Try Bushcraft by Mors Kochanski. Try http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/environment/fspubs/99232823/toc.htm it should be of some use. In relation to your knife if your other hand is not in front of the blade you wont cut it.

    Oil and water

    I would agree with the above. I have both oil and waterstones. I am a carpenter by trade , at work I use an oilstone and at home I use a waterstone. When I am at work people always comment on how sharp my tools are. As an apprentice I was always told to keep my tools as sharp as possible. The...

    Thing 1 and Thing 2

    Thing 1, Edged tools. Two questions.Question 1 is, how do you know when you have enough bushcraft blades. It seems to me that we all start off with one, possibly a Mora ( which I have a couple and think they are the best thing ever.) Then we read some more and get more ambitious and buy more...

    It will give a good shower of sparks if you strike it at the grooved thumb grip. Not so good along the rest of the blade although some filing might help this.

    eka w11???

    I was wondering when this knife would come up. I bought one about two years ago from www. toolshop.de at what I would consider a good price. It is very similar in size to the wood lore (if you put the EKA on top of the Woodlore Knife picture in the Bushcraft book by RM there is not alot in it)...

    Not a review, but..... The Mora training Knife

    I have bought carbon and stainless steel Frost Mora knives. I think that someone described them as cheap and I would agree but with a little attention they can become very very good. I have an India oilstone which can be bought from any tool shop . You can achieve shaving sharp. I have watched...
