Or by the outright rejection of facts, evidence or proof, because those not only question but show that one's own convictions are faulty. Cognitive dissonance. I think that there might be 2 paths here, 2 different kind of people, which are fundamentally different; the one's that do not know...

In that case I would recommend the standard Mora's, like the 120 täljkniv and skedkniv 164. The latter might require regrinding the bevel. I had to with mine, but that was 10+ years ago. No idea how the new ones are, but online it looks like they still have those horrible angles.

And what makes you so sure that you are not? As far as I can tell you are projecting your western line of thought onto their history and culture, utterly refusing to even consider their angle and yet call them wrong.

That depends. How skilled is he with knives/carving? And handsize might be a thing when using those socalled spoon/hoove knives.

It might just take away your own blindfolds, but each to his/her own.

The 1918 flu epidemic saw the population carrying masks and being vaccinated en masse.... Might there be a correlation? How come the unvaxxed are still alive and kickin', whereas myocarditis, turbocancer and lots of other ill sideeffects appear to be a prerogative of the vaxxed? Never noticed...

I do not know about Finland. Given their history with Russia/Soviet Union I would think so, yes. However Sweden..... not in the slightest!!! Helpless and naive as newborns and equally dependent on the nanny state. Maybe try talking to some Russians and try to see it through their lense? Which...

First of, I do not in any way condone invading a country by anyone. However, given the geopolitical games being played and with Russia being backed into a corner, I can understand the presumably preemptive strike. As for the view that Ukraine is "rightly" Russia, there is a vast difference...

And I am quite sure the ever increasing expansion of NATO eastward, despite promises not to, the ever increasing number of US/NATO-bases, with subsequent deployment of longrange armament, encircling Russia, the constant vilification of Russia by media and politicians AND the Maidan-affair have...

Nothing new. I still have the old booklets somewhere with recommendations we here, on this forum, would regard as common sense and logical. They have been ramping up the fearmongering campaign for quite a few years now. Sweden has a (political) habit of being russophobic. They keep beating that...

Unforyunately my wife does not do well when sleeping under wool blankets. The itching drives her mad and she develops issues with the airways clogging up. So many years ago we got a lama wool duvet and that works wonders!

Rightly? How so? Because those did not comply? Because those had doubts, questioned the narrative and as it turns out with good reason? So it was the right thing to do? To demonize those critics? To destroy their reputation, their livelihoods, their lives? It was ok to make them outcasts, parias...

Where I live a shovel with snowblade, unditching/skidplates and the means to stay warm in the car are mandatory. Other then that handtools, rope, wire, towing- and jumpcables + a firekit. Snacks and water get added whenever we are taking longer trips.

Period? Consensus does not mean proof or factually true. It all depends on who is funding what research and to what end. I would call it a political scam and ideological indoctrination. Climate models create wildly irratic predictions, none of which have come true. Sealevels are still about what...

Maybe we should divert our focus towards what is being done under the guise of "climate change". I think that is where the real issues are for us people.

Or maybe as fit as is possible, given the limitations some of us have to endure.

Just take my pack and go out....

Still alive. Had some major, lifealtering events and insights during the past years. How about you? Still thriving on your homestead?

Hello people. Ron here, the Dutch guy from Sweden. It's been a while since I wondered off into the forum. How's everyone doing? I've been neglecting the outdoors for quite some time now and hope to rekindle that love once more by seeking inspiration and motivation.

I really do not mean to be rude. But you are assuming too much. Thanks for the advice anyway.
