    A.I Created images and video

    @HillBill, regardless of anything else, you are perpetuating the confusion that exists about facts vs theory. This is just one of many sources that explain it. “A fact is a basic observation that is repeatedly confirmed and considered true in science, while a law is an empirical description...

    Knives for beginners?

    I never warmed to mine, it had quite a steep secondary bevel that did not cut wood well and required a lot of coarse stone work to remove, also, less pointy, so less good for carving and detail work. Good for splitting wood though.

    Knives for beginners?

    I am not entirely sure what you mean about bold full stops. I just used the forums "List" formatting option to create a bullet point list. Nothing new there. There are a whole bunch of formatting tools available on the forum. If you are able to add smiley faces, you can format the post. It...

    Knives for beginners?

    From a design standpoint, the suggested knives score well because: Blades around the 4 inch length are short enough to be controllable for carving and long enough for slicing Blade depth is enough for a little belly to help with food prep, skinning, carving, but still have a pronounced point...

    Best size axe

    Hello and welcome to the forum. What do you think bush crafting is? Put that way it sounds like topiary…definitely not axe work :cool3: All joking aside about the problems involved in defining “bushcraft”, and the legal aspects of walking around with an axe…. I have three Gransfors Mini...

    Knives for beginners?

    Hello and welcome to the forum. I moved your thread here where it will be more at home with all the other knife threads. This is a topic that gets asked about frequently, and there are a lot of threads already. The short answer is: a Mora, or a Hultafors cranftsman. I agree that the...

    A brief question

    I have used merino boxers from Janus and Devold from The Norwegian Store in Keswick. Their website shows limited stock but always worth calling. For synthetic I use Cool Silver by Rohan, now discontinued. Might try their Aether line if I ever wear out what I have, although that is unlikely...

    Hi from South East Asia

    Hello and welcome to the forum. May I suggest you change your stated location from Stoke to where you are currently living. It makes for simpler communication and more relevant advice….you can easily update if you move on. Best regards Chris

    News sources

    Video and link to ww3 prep source removed. Let’s keep the videos out of the thread. We are making an executive decision that there are news sources, and single subject narrative sources. The latter might have news, but they also consistently push a very narrow narrative and while you can...

    SODBUSTER knife ?

    I gave a Sodbuster to a friend, it had a D2 blade, don’t remember the brand. Be warned, the factory edge was very obtuse and I gad a fair bit to do on a very coarse (120 or 220grit) to get it to where it would cut. Had the same thing on a Case multi blade. Just seems the way “traditional “...

    Recurve Blade sharpening KIt

    If you are not concerned about the source of the product (no idea where made…probably not UK), this diamond sheet is good for making curved sharpeners. https://www.axminstertools.com/axminster-diamond-sheet-1-000g-103267 Oh, and these things have two flat sides, one concave and one convex...
