    Wanted Woodlore Leather sheath Wanted.

    There it is, as promised. I can post as soon as you like, or if you’re at the moot I can bring it in person. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Leg stuck out, thumb extended!

    I’m throwing myself on the mercy of the mob. It’s the first time I’ve been in the UK when the Moot is on in about 6 years. I’ll be getting the train down to the Moot on Friday. Any chance of someone picking me up at the station and giving me a lift into the moot via Tesco. Save me carrying...

    Windscreen - advice

    I recently got a pocket woodburning stove that came with a windscreen made of fireproof felt. it's supported by thin wire pegs that push through it and hold it up. I've not tried it out yet, but the concept seems sound

    New knife for the Moot....

    I have one of the Spydercos, but mine wasn't customised by Chris. I'm not sure why, I think I was a Mod at the time. *edit*I've been looking back through my messages to find out the maker of my sheath, and it looks like I wasn't a Mod when I got the knife. I became a Mod a couple of months...

    New knife for the Moot....

    Wouldn’t it though. At the last Moot I managed to get to, I had a play with the Wilkinson Sword Survival Knife. It was quite useable despite its size and weight. I wouldn’t mind laying my hands on one, but they’re a bit hard to get hold of these days. I remember lusting after one in the...

    New knife for the Moot....

    I’ve had a look at pictures, and I just don’t like it. Sorry. The Condor is the front runner at the moment. Still fancy trying out a Tracker though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    New knife for the Moot....

    The guy in the shop in Norway that I bought it from called it a lekku. Good enough for me...... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    New knife for the Moot....

    I’d not be surprised at all. One of my main bushcraft knives has a 1.5” blade, a little BRKT knife. I just fancy something bigger for a change. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    New knife for the Moot....

    I have a CS LTC Khukri that I picked up about 25 years ago that is a fantastic chopper and holds a fantastic edge. As to the Tracker, it’s a classic design. I’d like to see what I could do with it. I’ve carved spoons and trap triggers with a machete and a Khukri just to prove I could, I’d...

    New knife for the Moot....

    I’ve no idea why the Tracker is appealing to me at the moment. I’ve just got an itch to try it out. The fox blades, I like the look of them both, and I like the look of them. As for the Condor, I’ve got a traditional Khukri, and like it, but I find the handle is a bit small for my hands...

    New knife for the Moot....

    Wanted Woodlore Leather sheath Wanted.

    No problem. It isn’t being used anyway, because I replaced it with the neck sheath when I originally bought the knife, so it’s pretty much original condition. I’ll let you know when I’m back in the U.K. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Wanted Tom Brown Tracker.

    For some unknown reason I’ve got an urge to own one of these. No idea why. So, before I go ahead and pull the trigger from Heinnie, anyone got one the fancy moving on? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Wanted Woodlore Leather sheath Wanted.

    If you have no joy, I think I have one in storage in the U.K. I’ll be back in the country for the Moot, so if you’re still interested then, let me know and I’ll dig it out. It’s the genuine sheath that came with the WS Woodlore. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Yesterday morning, bright sunshine...

    As I type this, it's around 32°C and sunny, and the humidity is starting to creep up. Another month or so and it'll be 50°C with 100% humidity, which is why I'll be in the UK for a month....

    Beach bum has passed away.

    That's sad news, I've sat round the fire with him a few times. It's a loss to us all. My thoughts are with his family.
