I fell like a right git, choosing a thread title like that. But... it did make me chuckle:lmao:. I happen to like my mother-in-law. I did have my fair share of potential ones which made me wonder where they'd kept the broom and cauldron. Keep it coming.

Yeah, it's a bit long in comparisson, mainly because the blade is somewhat short. Feels good in the hand though. Thanks for your kind replies!

Just finished a knife and sheath for my mother in law. She's quite a keen carver and an avid camper. I hope it serves her well. Best regards.

olive oil works great too and isn't as ruff on your hands as some remedies suggested. i'm a tree surgeon/arboricultural advisor so i've had my fair share of pine resin stained hands and arms for that matter..

I'm rubbish at keeping my sharps, well uuhhh... sharp. Not for lack of trying though, just can't seen to get the hang of it.

That's fantastic! I'd love to try my hand at something like that. Thanks for the pics!

Nice trip, lovely pics, thanks for sharing!

Nice spirit! I always kind of like the way things never turn out the way you plan when working with wood. It gives the item a certain personality all of its own. Keep up the good work!

Isn't cold an relative thing? As long as the temperature difference is enough it would create power. I'm not sure how longlived the peltier-elements wil be though, especially if they run quite hot most of the time. With the water boiling it would run atleast an 100C. Hmmm, i'll have to ponder on...

Oh yeah! That's going straight on my wish list! Maybe now i can get my wife to join me for wintercamping with a tentstove! Thanks for the link!

maybe you could use them as pins, through a knivehandle?

I've facedthe same challenge last year, ended up getting a very old canvas tent (de Waard). paid €65,- for it which in old money would be something like 40 pound stirling. Made a stove out of an ammo-can and stuck it in there. Last winter i've camped in -15C, nice and toasty inside. Looks...

I would like a tentstove with a thermo-electric generator for my tent. Like the Biolite stoves, but in a propper tentstove. I do like my wintercamping, me.

That one had me in stitches! Excellent stuff! Nice Ulu aswell!

That fella is just a bit to good at that, brill vid, thanks for making my day!

Wouldn't it make sense to store it in, or rather, under water? It won't rot quickly under water because of lack of oxygen and the wood will be more easy to carve as opposed to dry wood.

You can send the pot of to me da, he's managed to scrub of 'all the ugly black stuff' on each and every pot in my kitchen:mad:. I think he used a brillo-pad and something not unlike T-cut.

I have one (similar), its a great little knive. Doesn't keep an edge too well, but is a doddle to sharpen.

I have, well it's a CO or carbon monoxide monitor, since that's the real killer. Apperently CO2 doesn't kill as often because you'll smell the smoke before it kils you. Haven't tried this theory out though. My monitor never went of though, even burning browncoal briquettes, which are notorious...

If that's an insult i'll have to change your status:swordfigh.
