Did anyone see the latest issue of FHM?! flicking through the pages of the mag and just after some rather saucy pics of Kaley Cuoco from The Big Bang theory, Joe o'leary from wilderness survival skills jumps in front of me, gutting a fish! Not what I was expecting, I have to say but great to see...

Hi I just stumbled across this thread, and it grabbed my attention! thought id give a mention about a school I have been with on a similar course to this. It was with the Guys at Wilderness Survival Skills Run by Joe O'Leary. My girlfirend at the time signed me up, and having not been on any...

im not near you, but i have most definitely seen one near me (essex) near a sea wall in a remote part of the county, It stopped on the path in front of us, looked at us, and then continued on its way. So we had a good long look at it, and we where only 20-30m away ( we could see its eyes!) and...

Ive got a hennesy hammock, the thing is its cold to use in winter months! i know i can buy a kinda insulated sling to hang below the hammock, but i want a cheaper version!! ive tried a standard roll mat which is awful! and a thermarest wasnt much better, it really needs something to completely...

After reading the latest Bushcraft and SS mag i fancied having a go at the Mora Knife mod, anyone else had ago? replacing the handle with a custom wooden handle. I was thinking perhaps a mix of hornbeam and hawthorn. my idea was to use the hornbeam as a fake full tang, utilising its pale colour...

Nope just green or shades of!

Ive seen this all over the place, normally growing along side stingers, its definitely got the smell and hairyness of a woundwort, superficially looks like some stinging nettles but i cant find it anywhere online or in me books, thats untill it flowers anyway, but im impatient!! thanks...

Keen to get on the Hunter gatherer course, run by Joe over at Wilderness Survival Skills, we needed to produce a few projects to prove our worth! On the list to provide was; ''something made from flint, something made from buckskin/animal hide, something carved from wood and something woven from...

ive got a whippet cross staff, unfortunatly all the whippet comes out in a woodland setting! the paw comes up like pluto's at the first sniff of a squirrel and then shes gone!!!! wish she was better behaved as she is great company but useless as a bushcraft friend!!!

Hi guys! Walking in the woods early spring I noticed hornbeam had been shedding the bud skins as they started to open, these where on the floor and felt quite tacky from sap, they also smelled like very strong vanilla!!! Has anyone had any use for these? Was thinking could infuse into milk??

On a recent wilderness survival skills course, managed to make a nice bit of buckskin! Thing is I don't know what to do with it, moccasins would be good! It's a bit on the smallish side but pretty soft...any ideas or templates appreciated! Cheers!

Did the advanced course this august after doing the awakening last July, I'm now hooked! And would love to give the hunter gatherer a go!! After talking about it with Joe, he reckoned he and Glenn would be a 'rival' tribe!! And we would have to watch out for them sneaking into our camps and...
