I have a pair of the old Craghoppers on at the moment and though the fleecy lining isn't shredding, it kind of twists about and feels clingy. The only other trousers I have similar that are wind and rainproof are some Ridgeline pintail Explorer. These are great for work, but also snag, even...

The orange and burlap handled Warren is now sold pending funds, as is the Para 2. @Bushcraft4life you have a message, I can post tomorrow or Tuesday only this week, I'm away after that and would sooner not travel with the knife.

That's about right I reckon. Knowing you're available, you don't 'dig' or want to discuss, a listening ear if need be, and if something needs doing the answer will be "yes, of course".

Yeah, this. It’s a strange thing, and I was done in without more emotional outlay. This. One lady, a retired doctor I know quite well and who had seen similar scenarios play out many times, turned up unannounced, handed me a still warm casserole dish of chicken and chickpeas, gave me a hug...

Well there's a familiar handle. Hi !

The small one? They both have burlap, but that one is plain.

Sorry guys, been out all day, I’ll get back to you later.

There’s also the thing that people really do care but are completely impotent in this situation. I had so many people trying to help, offering help when Lara died, it was smothering. But I came to realise it’s because they care, they didn’t want me to hurt, but couldn’t really do anything except...

Started using Proton even though I have a Nord sub that runs another few months as I’ve been assured Nord isn’t as private as they claim. Brave is now default browser, and I have 4 email addresses plus regular DuckDuckGo throwaways. I confess to not always bothering to use the secure ones, Gmail...

That squirrel is really doing your head in isn’t he?

@trashcanman1984 You'll be relieved to know it’s SPF. For future ref, the girls will be fine wearing Tesco bags on their feet this winter, and you can feed them ducks. Oops, chickens, of course they’re chickens, sorry girls

Pretty sure you can't. For some things, like discontinued knives, a google search will throw up threads that can give potential sellers and buyers an idea of what things are going for and how common they are. I've just priced up a load of knives by checking out old Blade Forums, Spyderco Forums...

Pleasure doing business, marked as sold.

All prices include Age Verified postage and fees. Payment by bank transfer preferred but not a deal breaker. All knives have been used but great condition, any imperfections I'll state with the item. Military, boxed with the original Digicam scales. Custom scales are distressed brown canvas...

Way back in the late 80's was when we stopped using that stuff, it ends up including fungal spores and bacteria and sealing them in the cut. Only ever used a product called Lac Balsam (?), very occasionally on big cuts as it had proven more beneficial at encouraging callousing. I'd prune a...

Two things arrived today. A BRS-201 stove that’s going to have to be run via an adaptor on the upright cheapo canisters. It eats gas, and roars so hard the dog ran away to her bed. Camping wok cooking is going to be fun And a tiny little knife, Real Steel Baby Barlow. Very nice fit and...

With luck he’s had 19 years of use out of it since 2007

Well, you’d think so, but it’s a very common wood for chopping boards. Those dark stripy boards I see in M&S etc are Black Locust. It’s considered food safe and even anti-bacterial “In Europe and North America, a chopping board sold as "acacia wood" is often made from Robinia pseudoacacia...

For Google purposes that type of head is called a bearded axe. https://www.cyclaireshop.co.uk/beavercraft-ax6-long-bearded-axe?language=en¤cy=GBP&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21190558475&gclid=Cj0KCQiA6sjKBhCSARIsAJvYcpMuzHjnn5zIzTap66Ac6fk9t5MxYeM2ySmyxkQIOQU8wmOxWZ9nM6waAirtEALw_wcB
