Another way to go is to try a Fuji X series camera. I have used one myself though. If are into mono try a Leica monochrome but is not a cheep option. Remember a flappy mirror is not necessary. Sent from my SM-G980F using Tapatalk

The thing will perform very similar and you not find many tests of either

What do you want to photograph? It will be better than a phone using the longer focal lengths (more zoomed in)it is not going be much better than a phone at wide angle stuff. Here is a review https://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/kodak_pixpro_az521_review

I nipped out on Tuesday afternoon to see if I could get a good sunset shot at a local beauty spot as it was a still day the sunset was not spectacular so I got this Wsadale afternoon_ by Alf Branch, on Flickr

A shot from last February that I only a mono version of a similar shot last year so here is a colour one Parton rocks sunset colour by Alf Branch, on Flickr

Any chance of posting the photos in the thread so we can see them (I am not going to instagram)

I would love to see it better. Can you retake the photos and either clean the lens or keep your finger (or whatever is obscuring it) away from so it doesn't cover the lens

For myself I am happy without a guard. When I am teaching a group of children I prefer knives with a guard. Sent from my SM-G980F using Tapatalk

What type of leather have you used? Did you mark and make all the holes before starting stitching? Are you using a blunt needle It looks like it was soft a pre dyed which may be why the needle is going through the wrong place. PM me your email address and I can send you a good tutorial

Very nice sheath Stew

Do you wax the thread and do you have a stitch wheel? Do you use an awl or drill for your stitch holes. The other issue can be if you have long nails it marks the leather. Sent from my SM-G980F using Tapatalk

My No1 is less that two years old and it has a full length tang with the metal clip at the end

Oh yeah should added a link to the thread of the Scouts knives. We got the idea from Danish Scouts but Mors Kochanski talks a knife repair in this way and he recommends a stick for this reason I recall https://bushcraftuk.com/community/threads/scouts-knife-making.152976/

I sliced a chunk off my brothers finger doing the same :argue:

A little knife made with a greenwood handle. A small branch about 40mm in diameter cut an hour or so before carving to shape with the frost 106 in shot. No glue used the wood shrinks onto the tang and only a small was drilled and the tang forced into the wood. The little knife is nice to use and...

Most of the he moulded plastic knives have tangs like that the wooden handle knives like the No1 have a tang as long as the handle I am not sure about the companion

This failed due to a an air bubble in the handle and it was probably hit on the handle when battening Broken Mora handle and reground blade by Alf Branch, on Flickr

When you baton it through a 5 inch diameter log it takes some hammer for a knife handle that is much the same as one on a 4 inch blade I could also stick a handle on this in the woods but not a full tang blade

This stick tang has been used for battoning wood almost exclusively for seven years by Scouts so far it has survived The Splitter 1 by Alf Branch, on Flickr

Very nice knife let down just a little by an untidy sheath but it looks like a good usable sheath You may be able to burnish the marks of the leather still though
