    Help with knives ID/valuation please!

    I would think the R&R Middleton has the most value, some of their Bowies turn up if you google, but nothing that looks the same. He might get an idea though. I had a bit of a nosey on EM for you. As far as I can see: A Camillus 26, in better condition, didn’t sell for £75 when it was listed on...

    Help with knives ID/valuation please!

    I’d echo Wayne there, try Google. Ebay US and AU still have knife listings so some of those might pop up. I would say that rostfrei is stainless in German rather than a maker. So Knife 4 I can’t quite make out what it says in the blurry photo but I think it maybe has a makers name above what I...

    I realise, I’m clearly clueless… I was thinking rodent teeth maybe, but have no sense of scale.

    Bushcrafter or Urban Outdoorsman, is gardening a legitimate pastime?

    Where are these do you mind my asking? I’ve noticed any hazelnuts in the city centre.

    Trip advice UK family holiday

    Sounds like Seal Shore on Arran to me, we went a few years back, lovely spot. Found it in Cool Camping (the book) but their website is pretty handy too. I suspect Arran will be full, but you may have more luck phoning around than relying on online availability listings. We’re stuck in the same...

    Inventions that should Exist

    Something that you can spray on dog mess or bird droppings which dissolves it and breaks it down into safe nothing. Obvious application is tidying up after careless dog owners, probably good for careful ones who don’t want to handle it and more personally I’ve got an issue with pigeons fouling...

    Open question - Financial

    It depends when you want money back or what you’re putting it away for. Also consider how involved you want to be with it day to day and your personal attitude to risk…Doing nothing also carries risk of depreciation so you might as well shoulder some risk by doing something. If you’re looking...

    Open question - Financial

    Basically I’d split it and do both of the above. The return/odds on premium bonds is ok if you have £10k to put in to start with.

    How to encourage diversity in bushcraft

    I agree with this: If only it were the case without groupings and quotas being necessary. But it isn’t so at least someone is trying to do something about it.

    How to encourage diversity in bushcraft

    Your missing the point, some groups are not treated as equal. They don’t have the same opportunities so these groups have cropped up to try and redress the imbalance that exists in favour of white people. but if we want to talk about left behind white folks, of course there are white poor...

    How to encourage diversity in bushcraft

    What a great coincidence that the guardian has come up with almost a direct answer to the OPs question and with actually speaking to some minorities... of course it isn’t about the narrow bushcraft side of outdoor pursuits but is relevant nonetheless. If we want to give people the opportunity...

    How to encourage diversity in bushcraft

    Encouraging diversity actually can be a really great way of broadening your horizons and learning from people who don’t share your perspective. It’s really interesting here to hear when the Finns, Germans, First Nations, and so on pitch in on a topic, their perspectives can be so radically...
