    It's not really, which is why it's never got beyond the occasional thought :D

    good ol' St Mears has given the bushcraft movement a lot of good things, but the scandi is not one of them!

    RE-GRIND NEEDED PERTHSIRE

    yep I'm with the last two :) If you want it as a lump to bully or chop through stuff, then convex it yourself. If you want it as a knife for slicing things, then have it reground to a full flat or high sabre grind, ya know like a proper knife! The sooner people give up on this ridiculous...

    Thai Pruning Blade?

    I've made many socketed tools and sickles, but never a socketed sickle before. When you say 'mini', how small is your impression of mini? I made hooked blades down to less than 2" long! There are some cool long handled tools that were used largely through the medieval period (and hundreds of...

    i woud love to, if i had a spare few grand, level space and machinery to move big logs to it. I did look into them, but way out of my budget for the amount of use it would get! I've friends friends that hire them out, but it wouldn't be worth the effort effort for what is usually one tree a...

    it's a lump, so any that you can manage! Well, that's what the 16 year old me that bought it did anyway :lmao: End over end like a knife is probably the easiest though. If you are strong enough then I guess you could try the no-spin spike method.

    Glad people liked the article. Although I don't earn anything from the woods in terms of woodland products, it's great to be able to use the material myself as far as I can. I had a facebook conversation with another hippy/blacksmith friend the other day about being able to make the tools to...
