When I cut a branch off of a tree I try to cut it as close to the trunk as possible. I have heard though that I should be cutting it a little longer or I could damage the wrinkly bit of the trunk that goes around the branch. Anyone know the best way to cut off a branch? Also, what is...

Maybe you should change the name of this to My other half is not a bushcraft nutter......The other halfs never come on here :rolmao: So we should be talking about them!

easy cowboy :sword: :nana: :biggthump

Thanks for all the information guys, although reading through this there seems to be two threads going. One that should be here and another that should be goodness knows where :nono: Tony - do you mean that some of the people that enjoy sailing and mountaineering are interested in bushcraft...

2005 :yikes: that's ages away, you should consider going with another school. AS far as I know Ray does not teach the beginners course but he would be there for the Journeyman. You could do you first course with Woodlore, woodcraft or one of the other schools. These guys were all Rays chief...

Never hear of that before, it would be cool to get one. hey Tone review one for us :lol: It would have to be quite tough, I wonder if that means it would be heavy? Did it have any info on the equestrian site bigjack? Name, specs etc.

Sometimes I think it is amazing how much knowledge we have lost over the years. Scary stuff :cry: But all we can do is our best to restore the balance.

:mrgreen: If it aint broke don't fix it :twisted: It's always easier if someone else does it :biggthump

Hi Guys and Girls :mrgreen: Can I have some opinions on the best headlamp to get. I used to have a Petzl zoom, but alas it was nicked :banghead: So I am after a replacement. Cheers harry

Hi All - I have just received a catalogue from JLS and with it came a list of over 20 knives at half price, Helle and Iisakki, there are some great offers there. ASk for a catalouge from john@jls-ltd.freeserve.co.uk mine took about 4 days to come

So when are you going to put up some new knife reviews on the site? :sword:

I've got a few opinels. I really want to try out the saw. Anyone used it?

I think for me one of the best secret food stores for me is in some old graveyards in Dorset and Surrey. The Berries are great and the place is usually empty so it's nice to just take your time and pick loads! It may be a good idea to get an old map of the area and look up old buildings that...

Good to see the email login page has gone, mush better now :P Some of the links on the left column are not working, mostly on the rollover pictures :cry:

Murphy’s Law, I post a gripe (30 seconds ago) about Ray Mears site being way too pricey :oops: :oops: But for fire steels I think they are a good price £8.50 can't remember if they have postage on top of that, they didn't used to but??

One of those cool Jet lighters :twisted: :twisted:

I had a peek at the British Blades site, excellent, although way over my head with their technical orientation. But, some really worthwhile stuff to learn there. It would be good if some of them could do some articles on Knives and steels etc.

With enough notice I can get nearly anywhere for a meet up. No suggestions of where though. In the middle would probably be best

Good idea, I could possibly do the autumn, otherwise it will have to be next year. Who else is up for it? And where would be a good place?

what sort of natural history and wildlife do you like BenR? I would love to get involved but just have no time!!
