That would genuinely tick most boxes for me, aside from the weather.

I just googled it. North island of NZ, and looks amazing. Great shout.

I’ve been talking to the missus about retiring abroad. We love the outdoors, so I’d want the trifecta of being in amongst woods/forests and rivers/streams, but ideally only being an hour from a beach in one direction and mountains in another. I was thinking Canada but I know how cold that...

No idea if it’s of interest but White River have just released a beautiful little knife which is a nice twist on a Skookum/Pukko. https://whiteriverknives.com/pko/

Cheers everyone, added another couple of subscriptions

Thanks everyone, I’ve added another 5-6 thanks to this thread. Greencraft lives very close to me I think.

I don’t know if anyone else is interested but I find it relaxing to watch other people outdoors, and I follow several Youtube channels. I thought I’d list a few I enjoy, in the hope that others do the same. Clay Hayes - https://youtube.com/user/ibprimitive David Canterbury -...

No problem, I’ll try again at some point. I don’t go over that way too often but it’ll be in the next couple of months.

I was 25 shops down the road. I’ll try again next time I’m over there.

Hi, I just wondered if anyone had experience with various sleeping bag liners? I’d just like the option to maintain my current sleeping bag but make it useable in 5-6 degrees C less than it currently goes to. I’ve heard silk is the most comfortable but doesn’t add a great deal of warmth...

To find the address you turn off the main high street into a short alleyway with a wide wooden gate across it. That has several door numbers listed, including 28a. A little dog was going berserk as we got closer and it caused a lady from one of the places to come and see who was lurking about...

This doesn’t exist now, I’m afraid. Unless I went to the wrong place. 28a Preston Street is a side alley next to a bike shop and it’s just someone’s flat. I asked the lady who lives nearby and she said there’s no camping/bushcraft shops there.

I’d love that. Both for their SAK blades and for their fixed blades.

Perfect, thanks. I head that way every now and then.

What’s the name of the shop in Faversham, please mate?

It was just supposed to be a light topic to discuss potentially great ideas for custom knives, to be honest. Sometimes everything is subjectively ‘perfect’ about a knife apart from the fact that it’s made from Aus8, and would benefit from a better steel. If you find the question impossible to...

I’ve never tried any Camillus stuff but I was eyeing up their little camo folding saw. I think it was only £15 or so and had good reviews.

Yeah, good shout on the full tang too. ESEE 5 in CPM 3v would be nice.

I’m sure many of us have got an extremely comfortable knife where the proportions are just right, it’s great to use, well balanced, and looks beautiful, but maybe the steel isn’t the best. Which knife would you remake in a new steel, keeping everything else identical, and why? I think I’d love...
