    Poncho liner

    I have a very aged American one (long before they started calling them 'woobies') and honestly it's one of the most used pieces of kit I ever bought, for a princely £3 at the end of the first War & Peace show I ever visited. WIth the poncho, everything from a British summertime swag to a cloth...

    European centric ?

    A heck of a lot, and some real wild game. That's kinda my point, we have "bushcraft" as a hobby, a compromise, that allows people on small, comparatively crowded islands to do things that people who live elsewhere do routinely, almost as part of day to day life still. It's a generalisation of...

    European centric ?

    My experience of France is that you don't find many buscrafters per se, but you'll find people with a 'bushcraft' skill set in comparatively greater numbers than you do here. Without staying too far into the political, they have a minor party, LMR (Le Mouvement de la Ruralité) which while almost...

    European centric ?

    I don't think so, but the UK/Ireland version of it is in my opinion/experience rather unique. It is quite... compromised, in many respects to make it acceptable/sustainable on small, densely populated islands. Somewhat more controversially, we rather play at it, for societal & legal reasons.

    I am sorry to be a pill, but I do believe at this point this issue needs to be addressed at a level above the mods.

    Is "preparedness" a state of mind?

    I'm in a well populated city suburb and unless I travel in rush hour, I can either wait an hour between services or walk to the nearest "metro route" which is half the distance to the city centre anyway.

    Is "preparedness" a state of mind?

    Someone, somewhere is preaching new things on that score. The number of times I've heard "nuclear weapons are smaller and cleaner now, all we have to do is go into our basements for a fortnight and we'll be okay. It's worth it to get rid of a dictator like Putin" in the past couple of years is...

    Sharpmaker +

    I think we can just call it evens. Drop me a PM with your addy and I'll get it sorted, will probably be Wednesday or Thursday before I can post it though, in the wrong at the moment.

    Sharpmaker +

    I have a Spyderco Sharpmaker that I've decided is surplus to my needs. It's well used, I bought it 2nd hand from here, but perfectly serviceable. I've added a pair of boron nitride rods and will give the standard stones a good rub down with Barkeeper's Friend before swapping. It's one of those...
