Yeah that's true there's no sheath / mask for many of the Hultafors range, but it's easy enough to knock one together. Which axe have you got?? No more than ten feet away from me I have 2 tomahawks, 4 Hultafors axes (800 + 900gm trekking, splitting and light felling SY20), a Norlund hatchet...

My kits are inspected on a 2 monthly basis out of season and in season they are replenned / inspected every other week.

Two options there I am afraid, one is don't eat them. The other is stew them with some spice. There are a lot of recipes for stewing down spinach in sauces, nettles are very similar and it's about the only way of getting around it.

You have them to annoy the neighbours and look after you in your old age or at least that apears to be the general consensus in my area.

Hey, I was just curious, Bali is a long way off and you tweaked my nosey streak. Have a good digg about and anything we can help with just ask.

Who says that those aren't Shantale's feet, remember that not everyone uses a picture of themsleves as an avatar on Facebook. She was probably born four miles down river of Middletown on the Susquehanna. She was also unusually large for her age when she was eleven or twelve and as an adult is a...

Fire by friction and the sets are always going to be something of a personal preference. For everyone that says use a bigger / fatter drill there will be someone who tells you something different in as much as using a thinner drill. Some will tell you to use a bowed stick for bowing, others...

I've just had to look up what a buff is (I am pretty sure that's not what the old term meant). In the military they were reffered to as "Headovers" and were pretty handy, Buff's were a royal regiment ;)

They call it equipment husbandry. It doesn't have to be learnt by having expensive kit, but you tend to learn it much faster when the kit is more expensive. As to Mora's I have over twenty of them, but I do use them as teaching knives. I also have at least 30 Hultafors knives as well. Every now...

Now that's a good reply :D

Sometimes I really wish there was a like button on here :D Ability over cost is the message, but if you have skill and the money then you buy the best you can afford in the same way we have done with clothing. A kagoul will do the job, but a Mera Peak is a nicer jacket. Our views and...

No problems mate, If you haven't been here then you ain't to know.

There are loads of knives out there, if you wish to pay $2250 for a Jimmy Lile first blood knife and can use it then fair play to you. Many people buy them, not many really use them. I daresay that you could pay $600 dollars buying a custom Gene Ingram if you so deisred (I have two of Gene's...

That would make you a wannabe Bushcraft Facist. :D Obviously the cheap nasty wall fittings designed for nothing more than display are as good as a hand manufactured one, despite the massive amount of time used, folding, tempering of a skilled master craftsman. :rolleyes:

Dave I am sure that you're on their website as being there. I've just spoken to Spanner, he said that he was sure that you'd already been invited and that it wouldn't be the same without you. He also asked that if you haven't had the invite already then to tell you that your are invited without...

Please define Bushcraft? What is "A Bushcraft Knife"? There is no clearcut definition of what Bushcraft really is and therefore there is no clearcut definition of what a Bushcraft knife really is. As a Survival and Bushcraft instructor who has taught to civilians, regular and reserve forces...

We'll get there for a meet up at some stage mate and I'll bring along some apple mead for good measure. :D

Welcome to BCUK, tell us a bit more about yourself.

It's a shame Duncan, it'd be good to see you again with the two Simons :D Big Simon is normally representing you pretty well with things shiney though.

That's a shame, maybe next time?
