After much deliberation, I've decided to sell my beloved Woodlore Knife (Alan Wood). I got this as a birthday gift back in the year 2000 (at the tender age of 17) and it's been one of my main users ever since. The photos were taken a few years ago, and the knife doesn't look this swish anymore...

Can anyone think of any reason why I couldn't turn a watering can into a group kettle?

Hi all, I want to make survival tins with my bushcraft class. I was thinking empty Altoids tins (or similar) would work well. Does anyone know where I can get a job lot of empty ones? I can order them on ebay from the USA, but I'm sure we eat mints here don't we? Any help would be very highly...

Hi all, I'm teaching bushcraft at a school, and thought it might be nice to make some matchboxes out of used shotgun shells with the kids. If anyone has a load they want shot of (haha) then I'd be more than happy to take em off your hands. Don't mind paying for postage and a small fee, but they...

Hi all, My brother-in-law asked me to make a knife to give to his girlfriend's dad for Christmas. He didn't want to pay top-dollar for a handmade blade, but wanted some wow-factor, so this is what I made for him. It's the brilliant Enzo trapper clothed in Reindeer antler. I made the box and...

I made this tinder pouch for a friend ages ago and thought I'd post up some pictures. The outer leather is goat and inner bag is sheep skin. The whole thing was liberally coated with neatsfoot oil to provide some measure of waterproofing. I had some difficulty with the stitching, but overall I...

*** WITHDRAWN *** Hi all, After much soul searching and heart wrenching I've decided to sell my beloved Alan Wood/Ray Mears Woodlore. I bought this in 2000, before they started sending them out in nice presentation boxes. It has seen plenty of use and has never let me down. It's by far and...

Hi all, I've made a new sheath for a Frost's Mora Clipper. It's 3mm vegetable tanned shoulder, dyed deep mahogany and with a cream coloured thread. It's a very firm friction fit; doesn't matter how much you shake it, it won't pop out! It will also fit the other knives in the line, including the...

** SOLD ** Hi all, I posted this for sale a while ago and took it down as I thought I had a firm offer. The sale then fell through and I decided to update the sheath a bit before re-posting it. So here is my Enzo Trapper in Curly birch with red fibre liners, brass corby bolts and a...

Hi all. I need to buy or build a billy can for me and the missis. I have an excellent Swedish army billy can set that I love, but is a bit small for both of us. Does anyone know of any billy can / cooking pot build-along tutorials? I'd quite like to take a hack saw to my mum's stainless...

Hi all. I'm in the process of equipping my wife for her first ever taste of Camping and I'm stuck on the sleeping bag. It needs to be warm enough to keep her toasty in the most inhospitable British Easter weather (she's a very cold sleeper) and also light enough to be hauled around the...

Hi all. On Friday night my wife was having a conversation with some of friends, the upshot of which was that she came over to me and said "Shall we go camping at Easter?" For those of you who don't know my wife this is remark is highly out of character. So much so in fact that I said yes...

Hi Folks, I'm thinking about heading up to the Dalby Forest in North Yorkshire for a spot of Autumn wild camping. Does anyone have any experience of it? I know it's operated by the forestry commission, and they tend to be quite strict about bushcrafting, but I wondered if anyone knew of any...
