    Hiking trolley

    I have an idea of something like that based around a sled so you could have a waist belt and just walk normally. The big thing that stops the idea is stiles and kissing gates.

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    I agree PotatoHead that is what I was sort of trying to say as well. The fishing kit is not a lot of use in the UK however other things are carried however they tend now to be part of my Bushcraft kit.

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    I wonder if the difference is: PSK for accidents Bushcraft EDC on purpose

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    To be honest you can read it both ways so I am not sure what he actual meant however the only reason to carry it on your belt rather than your web belt is so you can ditch your web belt and keep the kit. My point is a lot of people are going the tin kit is rubbish however he was basically...

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    The tin is supposed to be carried with a pouch containing a mess tin etc so it is more like a bottle kit or the 10cs.

    Alternative fabric to fjallraven g1000 for making my own trousers

    If you want to try hard, try getting plain polycotton ripstop! Poundfabrics John Fenna on the site has a book for sale on making these sort of things.

    Oh I so miss being able to switch out the battery of my mobile phone.

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    LOL carrying a full fly fishing kit is hard core! I am with Paul B in that in the UK you will find some sign of life within 3 days so trotlining(Longlining) for fish is not going to happen. After listening to Les Hiddins on the Paul Kirtley podcast have started watching his show and apparently...

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    I agree with most of that however the extreme weather might be on the rise.... Check out the flood in a Birmingham pub last month on Reddit. A PSK is a very interesting thought exercise however I think we have all moved into the EDC area. As Mor's said "The More You Know, The Less You Carry" so...

    What has it got in its pocketses?......

    Oh Scout pockets, how I miss them those shirts were brilliant. I used to have 2 cigarillo tins, 1 in each pocket. Safety pins pinned though the pocket lid. Obviously a whistle and a British Army knife normally. Also a large neckerchief because the normal ones are too small to use as a triangular...

    Swiss army knife blade replacement

    I had to send 2 back under the guarantee and just thought they would send 2 new ones. Which as far as I can tell they did however they sent me the exact models which surprised the hell out of me. I have a mk1 and a mk2 Huntsman still. I did make a big mistake when I sent my Leatherman back as I...

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    The best argument I have heard for prepping was a prepper who lost his job however he had a year's worth of food so was ok while hunting for a new job. If I remember my nuclear fallout maps right unless you live way up in the highlands no one in the UK has to worry about a nuclear winter. Based...

    Is a psk really needed in the UK?

    I think you are bang on by what it is about and should be about. The best bit of advice I have seen recently was to carry an angle head torch and I can honestly say it is possibly the most used EDC item I have. A little single AA torch and it just rocks. Ref the dog bags have you tried nappy...
