Mike, can you answer my msg please.

Good kit the old Cadet Smocks - green for Adventurous Training in cotton and orange for RAF Mountain Rescue Teams. Lots of good info here: http://www.smhc.co.uk/search.asp?ftxt=Enter+Keyword...&db=1&cats=12&x=188&y=17

Big Monster, where are those green plastic cups from? On my wish list is a Snowsled Classic or Survival Aids Ventile smock - sadly neither are made anymore so it might be a long wait until one appears on eBay!

A smaller (and better IMO) option would be a second hand Berghaus Cyclops Roc. They usually go for £40-£50 and hold 70 litres which is plenty. The Roc is a much more comfortable carry than the issue bergan and comes in different back sizes. You can also pick up second hand Crusaders/ Vulcans for...

Hi, I'll take it if i'm not jumping on someone elses toes! Happy to make a charity donation.

Just the one pin hole on the right arm.

Other knife sold.

Made in the UK before Karrimor was sold off. Average height I would guess - 160-175cm. No other adjustments. One main compartment with drawstring and second drawstring snow collar. Just the two lid pockets, no other pockets. No other access zips. Fabric - not sure, it’s pretty tough probably...

2.1 kg on the scales.

Age, not sure my guess would be 25 yrs old. It’s from that era. The coating is in v.good condition with no peeling as far as I can see. It’s a pack designed for mountaineering so there were no side pockets, I believe. That said it’s a standard Karrimor fit so side pockets from an old Karrimor...

Hi, yes definitely a camp chopper although the blade has a different angled grind near the handle for better carving. Specs here: https://www.varusteleka.com/en/product/terava-skrama-240-carbon-steel/30189

Skrama for sale. Only used a few times, £Sold posted including PayPal fees and postage. Thanks

I think the original HH fibre pile jackets pre dated Buffalo so it’s a bit unfair to compare. Its also worth remembering that they replaced wool jumpers which were less hard wearing and took an age to dry so for the era they were a big improvement. I’ve got several Field Jackets and love wearing...

Yes it’s a Berghaus Hootch. It’s bright red, I’m guessing early 80s looking at the fabrics used. I think in that period Berghaus produced all sorts of bags some of which are lost to history now. I got it off eBay, only paid about £15 for a brand new pack (albeit 30 + years old).
