Hard shell with massive pit zips mid layer ether a full wool jumper or some kind of puff and a fully vented base layer, bottoms would be tweed breeches an socks ( I can use gaiter's with these) or shower proof trousers, I have hiked a lot with this kind of setup hefting a light pack, if your...

Berghaus do some of the best waterproof jackets go to outdoorGB there prices are great so is the service. Hillwalker, Hudsonian, Otago are all good and some will zip in a fleece or be lined as is

Just finished making this, was a project sat on the back burner for some time, still some final touch's to do but it is now usable. Its made from a wool mix cloth, sorry the pic's are not so good, my nice camera is dead. Enjoy!

Hi! Good time to do it, if you can prep well for bad weather and prosper, then your come away with the best of skills.

Why not buy the non-locking version and just wrap cord around the ferrule? or just get a better knife.......

For the weight you want to carry I would go for an A.L.I.C.E pack I have carried a 250cc bottom end of a bike in one, held together just fine and went on for another 10 years there not perfect but are pretty grunt proof and tough.

Every thing is better with bacon, even yer knife!

French polish, hair grease, pig fat or a polished blade (wax and a buff)

Another option, thou this is not for all is use your stress to achieve, the key is focus and a real depth of knowing yourself, I use this one a lot it has not failed me but takes a long time to cultivate.

Go hiking or climbing! or some thing akin to it, its focusing but un-stressful, and don't feel locked into a situation you are totally free, doing things around nature reminds you of that fact, think of the bigger worlds about you not what is expected of you, breath deep!

I had the boar, really good, nice steel too, that looks to be a very fine knife, looks like some ones been out flowering lead, is that you?

There was a few, thinking taking there phone and a selfi of more use than some water and something warm, I just walked as much as I could right on the edge great views and few people, and the goat path across Cribyn's face was all my own.

Ok the beacon's it is, anyhow I like them, shame there so easy to get up, if it was a harder task there would be less trash and dog **** bags left about, was there only the other day, I like the walk across the face of cribyn, I think most of the faces could be scrambled, not that I would, as...

The burn holes would mean the ends are sealed, could you saddle stitch the hole and pull it all together for a hidden repair? Other option is just evo the backing cloth then make a cloth coin for the hole and over hand the edge
