    Manbag - yes or no?

    A newish manbag convert here. Bought a Finnish gas mask bag and really like it, good strong build. A week or so ago bought one of those Yugo bags too. It's not as thick canvas as the Fin bag but it's doubled up layers so still pretty strong, not used it much yet though. Pete.

    How do i polish my Becker BK2 to get rid of the coating

    Hi Silverback, I also put off getting one for ages , very happy I did now. Once I had the coating off there is some grind mark etc but nothing too bad, to me anyway . Made up some leather sheaths for them and have just replaced the handle bolts on the BK9 with some stainless ones :cool: :o. Pete.
