    Looking for predator side pockets, a grenade pocket and paracord, as ever. The side pockets are the primary goal, additions can be made up of whatever you think helpful. Good condition, few marks from use but nothing a damp cloth couldn't fix, I shall endeavour to get this done before...

    'Messenger' style bag with backpack straps.

    Morning all For my travel carry solution I'm after a shoulder bag that can be converted to a day pack (rucksack). Reason being, when carrying a large backpack a shoulder bag is great as you can reach it easily for travel documents and the like not to mention keeping valuables close, it also...

    Excellent new telescopic rod.

    Just had one of these turn up http://www.dragoncarpdirect.com/products/Matt-Hayes-Limited-Edition-8ft-Compact-Tele-Rod.html I've had a couple telescopic rods before including a Shakespeare and the ever popular Shimano Exage (I broke this one), however straight away this little rod feels...

    Kit from the States.

    I have a relative holidaying in the US at the moment and they asked very kindly if I'd like anything brought back. Are there any small 'only available in the states' bits of kit that I should be thinking about ?? Stuff around the thirty forty quid mark and small in size as they have to be...

    Simple, small, AA powered heatorch.

    Am off to work in malaysia next year on a small island for 6 months, now I currently run a Petzl Mayo XP (which is a cracking piece of kit). However I like reading in bed and the battery pack isn't condusive to comfortable reading, plus it's overkill. So I'm looking for a teeny one that doesn't...

    Hedgehogs

    Whilst up late last night sat at the patio doors I heard a snuffling sound and was visited by a big Hedgehog, watched him for half an hour or so, very nice. As they eat slugs and snails i figure they're worth encouraging as they could be like patrolling watchmen over the veg garden. So does...

    Monofilment knot needed.

    On the weekend whilst crawling about under a stage I broke the stitching on my zippo pouch (made for me 5 years ago by Singteck), I've just finished stitching it back up with doubled up 12lb fishing line. Now here's the embarassing bit even though I've fished for nearly 20 years I'm not sure...

    Re-wetforming.

    Didn't want to hijack the other thread so have put it here. I have an old leather sheath, made, dyed, wetformed etc around five years ago. I now want to make it look nice again. It fits the new knife but is a little loose. Anything wrong with re-wetforming it ?? Cheers.

    Corrosion on brand new Morakniv Clipper ??

    Had another Mora for years with no problems, lately decided to get a new Clipper because....well you know. It's turned up nice and promptly however the blade is a dull grey (This is because it's carbon steel right ??) but giving me more concern is that it has a bloom all over it, the best...

    A South African Braai for dinner.

    So here's a little grill I brought back from SA for about 8 quid, it kind of fits in my fire pit, there's a few anxious wobble moments but it'll do. Plus it's a good car boot addition. The legs fold flat and it weighs enough to be up for a short tramp in. We're really lucky in Bristol to have...

    Mythical elephants of the Knysna rainforest (SA).

    Hi there from a long term lurker, this is something I thought might be of interest......a day of tracking mythical elephants. Firstly the elephants of the Knysna forest are something of a myth, there has been several programmes on the subject (two actually), proving the existance of one...

    Magic & The Wizard of the woods.

    We all have our campfire pastimes, playing guitar, a bit of whittling, reading, telling stories etc. The story telling is my favourite and I always like to spice it up especially when with first timers or people not used to the woods !! For this I find a bit of magic works quite nicely...
