So it looks like the terava line is being reorganised by blade length and the one handed skrama is 200mm, so 40mm shorter than the standard version. https://www.varusteleka.com/en/group/coming-soon/2262

A Michael May oak scaled Barlow or a SAK hiker.

I was perusing my favourite web store and they've just added this https://www.varusteleka.com/en/product/finnish-external-frame-rucksack-green-surplus/63316 . The pack itself looks a bit ugly but I'm thinking the frame and leather harness are ripe for modding. I'm thinking an Italian mountain...

If you can keep it cool broccoli and spring greens last well and you can munch them raw. carrots are good too of course. I've not tried it yet but I think cabbage may dehydrate well.

I should have said the 500g and 800g are my favourites. https://www.thebushcraftstore.co.uk/prandi-axes-745-c.asp

Check out Prandi, the edge will need work but the steel is decent.

If you scroll through the images on the facebook link there is a pic of a prototype for a full tang puukko, and a full tang one handed skrama too.

Terava is Varustelekas brand name for their knives but they are made by Laurin Metalli Oy.

Probably more reliable than my local rail provider, and that built in turn table was genius.

If you're looking for a decent frying pan the pathfinder one is good https://www.heinnie.com/pathfinder-folding-skillet-and-lid-set Not ultralight by any stretch but also doesn't warp when you put it on the fire.

Carinthia, best bags I've used.

I've been after a vintage anorak for ages as a shell for my trad camping kit (no synthetics, zips or Velcro) and I came across this https://www.etsy.com/uk/transaction/1760652572 It's on its way from Bulgaria! From what I've gleaned from the internet it's cold war Bulgarian SF issue. Very...

I generally use method B to be on the safe side. It would only take one Jobsworth or anti-knife police officer to land you in trouble. And I'm not anti police by any means. If it were my knife I'd drop the point a touch on the belt sander to make it legal.

There are a few companies out there who can re-cell batteries, usually cheaper than replacing them with the manufacturers options. You'll void your warranty but if it's done well it'll be just as good.

RIP. Time to re-read Bushcraft.

I usually have an F180 in my pack. under £30 and a similar size to a Laplander but cuts like a demon. My only criticism is the lock spring is a bit feeble.

It's a long while since I've done any forging but if I remember correctly some of the lower carbon steels can be water quenched and require no further tempering but I know of a few folks who would temper them to stress relieve the blade. 240c may be too hot, I'd try 200-220c

I'm glad you are getting over your depression. Getting out in nature will only help, and it certainly looks spectacular there.

I believe they are made in Spain. But good quality. I have the Lars Falt knife by them.

And also available as blades or kits if you're so inclined.
