    Stropping compound?

    Thank you, that’s interesting, so it’s pretty much any slightly abrasive compound. I have a can of silver polish somewhere I might give that a try

    Stropping compound?

    Hello again folks. I have just received a King whetstone through the post from Japan. I want to purchase some stropping compound and have seen one chap on YouTube suggesting that Autosol can be used as effectively. I was wondering if anyone has any feedback on that idea please? The main...

    Mora bushcraft black

    Thanks. Yes I have seen that drawing elsewhere. As you say the black ergonomic grip is just that. The green plastic is the actual handle.

    Mora bushcraft black

    I can see what you mean, but I think there are plastics strong enough for the job. As I said above, I can’t see any real gain even if it was its purpose. It just puzzles me a bit??

    Mora bushcraft black

    Yes you’d think so. It just seems a little bizarre that it sticks out there to me . Also I can’t really see what purpose it would serve if that was the intention.

    Mora bushcraft black

    Mora bushcraft black

    Thank you. No it’s not a problem. Tbf it’s not the most aesthetically pleasing knife in the first place. So far though it’s been spot on as far as practical use is concerned.

    Ideas?

    Lol As a kid I always intended glueing two halves of a walnut shell back together, filling it with powder from a shotgun cartridge and fitting the fuse from a banger (I’m guessing they no longer make them?) by way of making a mini bomb. I think I got the idea from reading the Green Goblin...

    Hi again, does anybody take this magazine? I subscribed to an annual deal several weeks back but am yet to receive a copy, and I can’t find a contact number for them. I’m assuming the mag is a hard copy and not an online thing? https://bushcraftmagazine.com/
