Time for an overdue clear out of the sharps. Apparently, I don't *need* this many axes! :rolleyes: All axes have been stored indoors, in their sheathes, so no corrosion is evident. All heads are hand forged so show usual manufacturing marks, but there is no damage to heads. I've marked...

Here's a blooming good idea. I found these in a shop in Brighton today. A billycan very similar to the zebra type but with the addition of a metal strap fastening to stop everything sloshing out in your rucksack.. Don't think it's a waterproof seal, but it's a snug fit so it should keep...
