    Winter hammock setup

    I would buy an underquilt that is rated for cold wheather. -5 is probably not a comfort zone for the DD but more of a limit.

    Swedish Axe choices

    I bought it from Rob himself in 2018. I have used it a lot so don't expect a new looking knife. The edge is in perfect condition though. Considering selling because work is slow right now and i could use the funds...
