    Alone In The Wild - New Bushcraft YouTube Series

    Very impressive Dave. That looked like a lot of labour, especially using just a hand saw. Tidy job too, and I'll be interested to see how the shelter - and you - hold up. Oh, and nicely fixed and about the right length as well. Good job!! Sent from my E2003 using Tapatalk

    Whats the point of the cord/string around the top of a issue bivvy bag?

    +1 to this. I used to struggle just like that until I replaced that thick cord / tape stuff with thinner, slippery cord. Sent from my E2003 using Tapatalk

    Budd blade knife and sheath build

    I thinks that works better. Looks great too. Gotta love a Budd blade; I've got a couple myself!

    How do you look after your knives?

    Not guilty m'lud. Like you I try to keep my knives clean - meaning a wipe over with a cloth or on my trousers when they need it, and a bit of oil on wooden handles now and again when I'm doing the kitchen chopping boards or something. I like that used but maintained look. Pristine knives have...
