I was determined not to have this knife I had commissioned as a drawer queen but life got in the way (as it does). It is a left handed sheath and totally unused - never even sharpened. It cost £175 to buy but I can sell it for £120. I'll miss her! now sold

I'm after a cheapish camp axe. Something out of the ordinary........reclaimed if possible, with history. Many thanks in advance Kim

My Dear fellow lovers of all things bushcrafty, I find myself fantasising about a 'retreat' I need. Possibly because of a mid-life crisis, possisbly a bit of navel gazing needed, possibly to reflect and come to terms with the recent and fairly traumatic loss of my brother....... mostly likely...

Hi Guys and Gals, As ever, I need the benefit of your combined wisdom and expertise! I am soon to be in the enviable position of spending the working week in London and the weekends (and hopefully longer as time goes on) down near the New Forest in a rural location. The aim is to work out...

Hi guys, I bought the excellent LD20 a couple of years ago, after getting good advice from here, and think it's an excellent bit of kit. In fact it's so good I bought another one recently as a back-up and sometimes to keep in the car - the thing is whereas the older one can throw a beam to...

Hi Guys, I have decided to turn to the dark side (back to springers) and sell my beloved AA S510, with the lovely walnut thumbhole stock. It's less than a year old and has probably had around 500 pellets through it. It's .22 calibre. You will also get the excellent MTC Viper scope 3-12x44IRS...

Hi Guys, I already own an AA s510 - which is a great tool but find myself hankering after a springer. I know this has probably been covered more then a few times but can anyone give me their opinions as to the best springer out there at the moment for game and not target? Thanks Kim :)

I have just recieved this lovely knife from Karl-Erik (kelindblad): http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53503 After a LOT of umming and arring I have decided to pass it on as it is just a tad too small in the hand for my giant mitts! This was going to be my main user after...

Unfortunately for me, but good for someone else, the arrival of my woodlore coincided with a slight change of circumstance of the fiscal variety. The upshot being that I have decided to sell the lovely beastie. As you can see it is completely unused and even has the wax it was supplied with...

Hi guys.........does anyone have one of these beauties they are considering parting with? I'd love one but missed the last one that was sold on here. :AR15firin

Just a thought, but does anyone here use a bench grinder and polishing mop combo to maintain, attain a a sharp edge? I've heard it can be done with good results and that some people use a leather wheel to strop. Anyone here got any practical advice or experience? As ever, thanks guys...

Hi chaps, I am toying with the idea of buying a Khyam Igloo 3 man tent, and wondered what you think of it, or if there is a better alternative that is as easy to put up. The reason I am going for this is that I like the size and it's ease of erection (snigger). I know it's heavy but as my...

Hi Guys, I have just got a beautiful GSD x Malamute puppy and am hence finding myself spending many a night walking him on the local heath. I thought I'd use this excuse to buy myself a new torch and as the technology has leaped since I last bought one thought I'd ask for the benefit of the...

Hi Guys, I am in need of a decent pair of wellies for the first time in my life - never owned a pair before. Apart from the obvious, can anyone tell me what makes a 'good' boot and where to get them from. Oh, one last thing........it would really help if they don't cost a fortune (don't...

Hi Guys, Another piece of advice needed here. For the first time in my life I'm going to have a place I can make into a workshop - only as SWMBO has allowed it, of course. The house we're moving to has a great big converted garage in the garden. Over the years I've accumulated a few small...

Hi Guys Here, in all it's glory, is my first attempt at re-handling a knife - in this case a Bernie Garland bushcrafter. I know it's a long way from perfect but I'm chuffed as it turned out quite nice and fits my big hands just right. Any hints or suggestions gratefully accepted.

Hi Guys, In my ongoing quest to find the perfect sharpening system for me I bought this Edge pro Apex System about 3 weeks ago. Although excellent, it's not quite what I was looking for (more to do with me being cack handed than anything else). Hence it's up for sale...... after gentle nudging...

Hi Guys, As usual I am in need of your help here. I have handled (as in fitting the scales) to my first knife and now want to make a leather sheath for it. I've been to the lovely people at Leprevo and bought some leather and all the tools needed, I even bought the book 'The art of making...

Hi Guys, I thought I’d have a stab at a review of a great 3 day course I went on with Natural Pathways in Kent. It was the ‘Discovery Course- Basic Bushcraft, Survival Skills and Nature Awareness’ 9th-11th May near Canterbury in Kent. The school is run by Hannah Nicholls...

Hi Guys, I recently bought the Shangri-La 3 with the floor from Backpacking light (great co. to deal with by the way) http://www.backpackinglight.co.uk/product348.asp I bought it 3 weeks ago, as soon as they got the stock in, and used it once this weekend in the dry. It's the blue...
