added some wild garlic (leaves and flowers) and dandelion leaves to a salad tonight, very sophisticated it was too. :)

Did this ever make it on to the to-do list? ;)

I think this one's worth avoiding if it's the one I think it is, the £15.95 one? A few years ago there was a flood of them on eBay and now I see them sold as Web-Tex. They've got a double broad arrow on them rather than the more traditional Broad arrow mark. I got one off eBay and it languishes...

If I wasn't also of limited means, I think this would fit the bill nicely. :D

there is talk across on British Blades that Spyderco are making more UK legal folders that are less tactical looking than the UKPK. Someone's also selling a Fallkniven U1 on BB at the moment, it's UK legal but I don't know how the slipjoint compares with the UKPK. It's a pretty little knife though.

I think Jedediah is too....... in fact he'd swap some army clobber for one :rolleyes:

out of nosiness, are they DPM?

Hwhw*, I'm scottish so that's about my limit. :rolleyes: * we need welsh smilies ;)

Croeso.......

In my quest to get the right sort of kit(s) over the years I bought a few things from eBay including some job lots of stuff sold by ex--military types. Now I need to raise some cash, make some space and admit to myself that some of this gear is never going to be used, or I'll never need doublers...

Got this off eBay, good evening's read. The author, Archie Hill, spends three autumn months living in the forest on a large country estate, no contact with other humans. Brought with him a change of clothes, tent, billy can, some matches and a lighter, an air rifle, a bowie knife and a folder...

yup, and Soul Eater too, it's the third in the series. The fourth comes out in September. Gonnae be a busy month for buying books..... :D I remember seeing Wolf Brother in tesco and I did "judge a book by it's cover" even though it was in the teens section. I think we've actually got a...

So Wayland, what kind of food do you cook in your billy? Soups, stews that sort of thing.. anything authentically Viking?

Combat Wok? tell us more... love cooking with the wok, and have some Balti dishes too but they're just a bit too wee.

Part of bushcraft that really gets me going is the awareness of, and connectedness with, nature. Get yourself a sit spot, somewhere you can sit quietly for an hour or so. Find somewhere that's a transition between different habitats, a forest clearing perhaps, or a hedgeline, your garden...

very nice, it's a good job I'm really skint, cos if I was just a bit skint.... any Nessmuk influence?

Bit of cord hanging off the baldric, end wrapped round your belt a couple of times, no need for a knot seems to give enough tension.

Little tip I got from Ed was to wrap your cord round the spindle before you tie the second end on, that way you can ensure you're using the right length and tension.

Sure, I'm with you on that.... and I did "laugh out loud" at the cartoon... but a few seconds after the "punchline", It was so like a BB cartoon until then... found myself talking about it with friends last night too

ROOT! see me after school! ;)
