    Does anyone use work trousers for Bushcraft?

    I was wanting some hard wearing trousers with reinforced knees for camping but all the ones I could find seemed to be ridiculous money. Then I noticed that a lot of workmen wear these type of trousers and I priced them up an found that they're loads cheaper than one marketed as for 'bushcraft'...

    Tents left at Glastonbury!

    Checkout this video which shows all the tents and kit left at Glastonbury. Such a waste! I really hope they collect it all up and send it to the Red Cross or something. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y70LCoK-XMA

    Issue with Zebra Billy burning food

    Last year I christened by Zebra Billy and decided to use it to cook a meal (I think it was something involving rice) using a Coleman Butane Gas Micro Stove, unfortunately the rice ended up burning on the bottom of the pan and the food near the top of the pan wasn't cooked also to make matters...

    Coleman Camping Stove question.

    I have a Coleman Micro Stove and recently bought a Campingaz cartridge for it from Tesco. Unfortunately it doesn't fit properly but may do if I force it down so the valve goes into it. Is this a good idea or should I count my losses and just buy the correct cartridge? Thanks.

    58 Pattern bottle

    Just got myself a 58 Pattern water bottle to replace the cheap leaking clone I had. However I was under the impression that the central part of the lid can be flipped off to allow you to push a water filter in without removing the lid, but mine doesn't seem to do this? Was I miss informed...

    Karrimor shoes causing discomfort.

    I bought some Karrimor shoes from Sports Direct not so long ago and got to put them through their paces with the poor weather we've been having recently. Unfortunately they have been giving my right ankle a lot of pain, I think it has something to do with how the sole has been molded as it...

    Telogreika

    Does anyone know where I could purchase a new Telogreika from? They are basically padded tunics that the Russians wore in WW2 and could keep you warm in sub zero conditions for long periods coupled with similarly made trousers, felt boots and fur hat. And no I didn't watch 'Enemy At...

    Thinking of emigrating to New Zealand

    Me and my wife have started to get really hacked off with living in England, the weathers rubbish, its hideously expensive, the house we bought and done up is now probably only worth what we paid for and now on top of that the country is in a recession. We've been contemplating emigrating to...

    Best tool for sharpening a Machete

    I have a DC4 and another knife sharpening block I got from Aldi, but I can imagine it taking an age to sharpen the long Tramontina Machete I have. I was thinking maybe an Axe sharpener would do the trick and as I need to purchase one for my Gransfors I could kill two birds with one sharpening stone?

    Making a knife hair popping sharpe?

    I'm the first to admit that I have been pretty useless at sharpening knives. But recently I seem to have got the knack of it and have managed to sharpen up my extremely blunt bushy, SAK and Frosts Mora so they all cut through paper with ease. I even managed to shorten my SAK, so it was less than...
