    Two Dogs Ventile and Wool

    I’m very lucky to have made really close friends with a fella I met hunting bear a few years ago. They include me in all these damn fool adventures and this time of year I can pick up a flight for under £400. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Two Dogs Ventile and Wool

    I’ve been really lucky to be back and forth to Ontario in the last couple of months and wanted to report on the Two Dogs Ventile and Wool Smock that Cliff made for me. When I came over at the end of November to hunt Whitetail it suddenly turned unseasonably cold. I hadn’t packed for this and...

    Was anyone the Charity Auction run by Chef

    Hi Stew I did indeed. That’s really kind of you mate but for the sake of my own sanity I need to find the guy in question. He took photos of my knife which has hessian Micarta scales and brass bolster. Thanks for the thought Stew. Really! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Firesteel from Bushmoot Charity Auction

    Hope everyone is having an amazing Christmas! At this years Bushmoot there was a charity auction and I bought a promise to make me a custom fire steel. I’ve not heard from the chap involved from that day to this and wondered if anyone could remind me who it was? I’m off to Canada at the end of...

    thermorest Neo air

    Hi Jimbo I have been running one for the last 4 years. I’m a big bloke and I have used it regularly bivvied on the ground. Don’t be dumb sticking it down on sharp stuff and in my experience you will be fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    My parang 10”

    I use one in preference to an Axe Janne. Clearing back and cutting anything up to wrist size I’m way more accurate with my cuts with a Parang. It’s lighter and less tiring to wield. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Catapult competition at the Moot

    I wish. They have been in the loft since last year. It’s sad, I know but it’s one of the things I’m really looking forward too next week. At the moment I’m really hopeful of being able to sneak away a day earlier than planned. I’m focussed like a laser on making that happen!! Sent from my...

    Alt-berg civilian vs military boots

    I just wanted to revisit this thread. As I wrote previously my issues boots are YDS Kestrels and I am not a fan. The tongues started to flake surprisingly quickly. As a drill boot they are fine but I can’t imagine walking any distance in them without regrets. I have been wearing Meindl...
