My guess is that its a bird of some description , but I don't know for sure . So can you tell what it is ? Right at the start , the very first sound ( is not so screeching but more of a purr or something...) Also around the 9 seconds mark it happens again Weird and wonderful at the same...

So I found this badboy on one of my jobs , and it was destined to the skip . Being the hoarder that I am , decided to keep it and restore it . It will come useful as I need to chop loads of logs that I've been foraging for the burner ... So perfect timing it was . It was in a poor state , the...

It's basically one of these: https://www.surplusandoutdoors.com/karrimor-sf-mtp-ecm-lightweight-1145643.html It's in mint condition, bought on a whim. It's a beast of a pack and it's around 45 litres I believe. This is a genuine British Army issue. I'll post pics later when I get back. You...

I'm drawing on the collective's knowledge to possibly identify this monster ... It's growing on a very young Himalayan birch . And I'm guessing it's Chaga fungus. If it's Chaga then I will harvest some and be very happy with the result. If it's burl I'll leave it alone I think , as I don't...

Hope you all have a great day tomorrow 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

A question for the community... 🙏 I was after a few metres of strong 1mm or 1.5 cord .... but I'm struggling to find an English supplier of either bank line or dyneema/amsteel cord in muted colours and of that diameter. Evilbay bank line comes from the States and both the postage and...

Hi everyone. Apologies if this has been answered before, I've used the search function but could not find the answers on C.Claycomb's sticky. My question is that one of a novice... I need help in choosing blade shape for a camp knife. I love the shape of the new woodlore Pro but I'm not sure...

Thought I'd ask the community again, as you guys always have the best ideas 👍 As per title... I need to find 1 leakproof bag that will accommodate my 1.6ltr. Tatonka cooking pot and maybe a few extra bits. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00472L0GA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_lKYPyb9HMX6K8...

Hi all, just as the title says ... I'm in the market for a gas stove . I've had enough of messing around with sticks and tinder first thing in the morning.

Hello , can anybody here help identify this Swedish Coat please? I only know it's Swedish surplus because of the three crown logo on it, but that's all I know. I guess it's a navy coat judging by the anchor on the buttons, It'd be nice to find out the model and issue year... perhaps value...

Hello, drawing on the community knowledge here again, hope someone can help. I have a knife that Mick91 did for me last year, it has a beautifully figured yew handle , and hasn't been varnished or oiled I don't think, as Mick said that the yew would darken and perhaps discolour if the wrong...

A while back I saw a video , through this forum, of someone battoning through nuts and bolts and other various hard materials with a beast of a knife and the edge would still cut through paper like no business after the tests. I've searched high and low on YouTube and internet but to no avail...

Days becoming shorter and nights are drawing nearer, Harvest is done and the Halloween is nearly here. The timing couldn't be more perfect for what promises to be a very interesting evening, coming to a place near you , very very soon. I got tickets to a wonderful night of local supernatural...

http://www.zippo.com/product.aspx?id=1025701 And why hasn't this become a success? Yes it's ugly, but it seems like a good tool... or at least the concept is viable... that should have worked right? Has anyone tried it? Is it overpriced ? Cheap plastic rubbish or sturdy? Is it good or is...
