Hi Where are you based, please?

Wonderful stuff - thanks for sharing. I’m after a badger skull. So far all the local roadkills seem to have been hit in the head = crushed skull. Is this common for roadkills badgers? I have a selection of skulls that I’m trying to expand. Any dead animals I come across when wandering will...

I was given a dd hammocks magic blanket. That has become a really useful and very lightweight groundsheet for sleeping out.

I have used tightly wound inner tube round doubled over paracord as a “weak” point in anything round my neck (to avoid being garrotted). It might work as part of a tarp line set up.

I haven’t tried it, but Fjallraven make a poncho - in G1000? It’s about £100, but if you’re looking for a bespoke Goretex poncho...

That sounds good. Please will you share results? I’d be interested in price too - the website can lure you in with extras ...

I have no direct experience of this jacket. Looking at it, however, I am not keen on the cut. For thrashing around in the woods, I like lots of large pockets and a loose cut to allow for layers. I have used a Westwinds Ventile for several years and love it. Unfortunately I have lost my Covid...

Just to avoid confusion - is the axe sold? Last note = (I think) “sold pending funds”. Thanks

Rob Evans of this parish has a YouTube video on his new Bushbox - some interesting comments there.

I like my smaller stainless steel Pathfinder pot - basically a Mors pot in stainless. It will hold a small stove + a gas cylinder + quite a few packets of dried food (depending on how forcefully you pack them, of course). Its features of a pair of folding handles - large enough to use while...

Thank you

Please will you provide all the measurements? (I like the look of this but would need to convince SWMBO that it would fit )

Lovely side profile - very pleasing to the eye. Well done.

Any news?

Yes please PM sent

Picture is a bit unclear - sorry. Does it have a blackened blade or is it just untreated steel?

Same message and challenge - please pm me. ATB

Great discussion and lots of useful information/ advice. I bought a copy of “How to **** in the Woods” decades ago when I lived in Canada. It has been a very useful guide and one I’d recommend. The Ray Mears / Paul Kirtley / Scout idea of a secluded trench for groups or longer stays seems to...

Thanks for those pointers. I don't know if there's an active farrier in my area. I will contact the vet and ask.

Interesting discussion. I have a Sabre 45 + side pockets that I like for longer trips. Just before Lockdown One I found a Predator 30 on ebay for a very good price and that's a useful bag for hoofing around. I've used it regularly for about a year volunteering as a camera trap setter and it's...
