    Survival Rations Inspired by History

    I do wonder were things like Anzac biscuits and oat cakes sit? Also what using honey does to those things instead of the syrups?

    Best Bushcraft books

    Check out the dump as there loads of scout books on there including some of the pamphlets which are a really interesting read. I really want a copy of the BSA Scout fire and cooking book that Blackie Thomas keeps talking about. I was listening to Mor's on Paul Kirtley's podcast talking about...

    Check out the Identity store as they have smaller pieces of leather for sale. A4 and A3. Unless you planning on going into business think the only big tool people tend to end up with is a hand press. I cannot remember which member made them however would love a tutorial on the those really nice...

    Yew Wood Chippings

    Yew berries are proof that the saying about watching what birds eat and then eating that is safe is rubbish as they can eat Yew berries as they do not digest the seed.

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    I think the point of a PSK was the minimum a soldier needed to survive and the reason it was in that tin format was you could keep it in a combat trouser pocket so it gave you the option of dumping everything to make a run for it. Lofty's version I think has the same idea it just got more in it...

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    I agree with a lot that has been said in that I think a PSK and EDC are the minimum you can survive with and that does change with location most of the time.

    Someone has been done for carry Zombie knives.

    Are they not Zombie swords? The one in the top article must be at least 2 foot long. All of the kids by me seem to go round dressed like wannabe ninjas. I highly recommend Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know About the People We Don’t Know by Malcolm Gladwell as it has some stuff about the...

    Someone has been done for carry Zombie knives.

    BBC - Zombie Knives Not sure why they are on about Zombie knives as from the description they were stopped and had fixed blades on them with no good reason. The 2 knifes shown are Kombat branded knifes so not sure I would class them as covered by the Zombie law. That said I would be even more...

    Instinctive Archery. Your experience please.

    One of the interesting things that NockOn does in the first lesson is just shooting the target to start with. Get your form right and then start looking for accuracy. You could also try the paper plate system from Blackie Thomas. Basically you shoot 3 arrows into a paper plate and then move it...

    Habitat with most odds off obtaining all your wild food needs in the U.K.

    Carbs are the big bang from an energy point of view and easier to transport. Raw meat can be really bad for your health.

    Canoe recommendations? Single man preferably.

    Do you know if there any information on length vs width vs height? Just wondered if they had designed the perfect transport canoe. Also Ray in one of his shows has his canoe on an edge when paddling it and I wondered what that did to speed etc?
