Slightly off topic but what's the best way to prep galvanised steel for painting? I have Mordant solution, galvanised primer and coach paint. After a good clean and degrease would I be best using Mordant and the galv primer or is that overkill and will the primer suffice? Article in question is...

Having a clear out of a few drawers and came across this. Unused but removed from its cardboard backing. No idea what they cost but how does £10 including PP and post sound? Rik.

Not very bushcrafty but a general question about vehicle insurance. My S3 Land Rover has eaten another gearbox so will be laid up for a while for rebuild. My insurance covers me to drive any other vehicle 3rd party. Can I legally drive my wifes old car that is sat idle as she bought a new (to...

Has anyone got one of the Swanndri Explorer smocks (that bushwear used to sell) that is lying idle, ideally size medium (or large at a push). Gratuitously stolen image of what I'm after below. Thanks for looking and heres hoping. Rik.

Does anyone have one of the above knives that needs a new home? Satin drop point blade in good condition. Ideally blue handles. Not keen on black but would consider it. Thanks, Rik.

Just a quick question for the collective mind. What's the best glue to use between leather "washers" for a stacked leather Puukko handle? I'm thinking a smear of slow set epoxy but am open to better suggestions. Cheers all. Rik.

Has anyone got one of the Swanndri Explorer smocks (that bushwear used to sell) that is lying idle, ideally size medium that they might be looking to sell?

I'm having a bit of a cull on sharp things that have sat in a drawer for far too long. That and funds also needed for new purchases ;). Offered for sale is a Falkniven TK4 in what I would describe as excellent condition. It's had a very easy life so far and hasn't seen the light of day for a...

The Fallkniven Idun is the smallest of the Fallkniven Northern lights collection. Made from their amazing laminated VG10 steel with a hair popping convex edge and gorgeous stacked leather handle. Leather sheath with secure fastening to keep the beastie safe and secure. In great...

because they're really annoying me.

This is the smallest of the Iisakki Jarvenpaa line up with a polished carbon steel 3 3/8" blade, 7 1/4" overall (so not ideal for those with big hands! Good for SWMBO or the smalls though ;) ). It has seen very light kitchen use and has never actually left the house. Sheath has been...

This has been sat in the drawer for far too long (years - Tregor no longer exist!!) and needs moving on to someone who will use it. Blade is 95mm long and if I remember correctly is progressively tempered to have a higher Rw on cutting edge than spine. Takes and holds a superb bordering scary...

Funds needed for a new sharp thing so for sale here is a Kellam Puukko. Needs little introduction. Great knife, takes and holds a scary sharp edge. This one has a forged finish (unlike the new ones which are all shiny and polished). Forgive my photography skills (or lack of) I'd like...

Has anyone had cause to deal with GB warranty claims? I ask because this happened just now whilst splitting seasoned wood for kindling:- [/URL][/IMG] I have always thought there was the tiniest of hairlines near the cutting edge and maybe I was right? Wood was nicely straight grained...

As new. Size large. Few years old but only worn a couple of times and spent the last two years in a box in the loft. I'm 6'1" and 80ish kg and its a bit large on me. Superb warm jacket but as you've gathered its not getting worn. £70 posted if you pick up PP fees. Thanks for looking. Will add...

I have been on the lookout for a Mountain Hardwear Kiva Mesh Insert. Posting this in the hope that there may be one lurking unused and needing a new home (in exchange for some £ obviously) in someones kit store out there? Maybe?

Recently bought this on here in the hope it would fit. It didn't so its back in the classifieds. Barbour heavy knit wool and in superb condition. It was a large but obviously been washed hot washed and it shrunk. Size wise it's now got to be a small now, medium at a push. Collar to hem is 23"...

Offered for sale is my Falkniven F1. I've had it sat in a drawer for a year or more and its time to move it on. Superbly sharp polished convex edge but to be fair I'm more a fan of a scandi grind. Comes with one of Rapidboys multi carry kydex sheath systems (and a slightly beaten up leather...

As above for sale. Dark olive size 50 or UK 34ish. Couple of years old but only worn a handful of times if that so in excellent condition. No holes, tears, burns or scuffs. In fairness they were always a bit big for me or they'd have been worn more ;). She's even ironed them! Would like 50 quids...
