    Bushcraft and Scouts Milestone

    Well, after much trepidation (on my part!) my Scouts safely made tent pegs armed with a bunch of shiny new Mora 511s and under plentiful supervision. Makes me feel like I've passed a right of passage or something :D Axes and saws next week!

    Rancid Badger sheath

    Ludicrous decision by Ebay - Knifeless Item rejected!

    Having just purchased a LM Supertool 300 I thought I'd try selling my LM knifeless Fuse on Ebay pointing out explicitly in the listing that this was Leatherman's officially knifeless product. It was pulled of course. I appealed. It was reinstated. It was then pulled, appealed, reinstated and...

    Further knife ban

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned this (from the No 10 website): 14 January 2008 The Prime Minister has said that anyone found carrying dangerous weapons such as knives should expect to be prosecuted rather than cautioned. In an interview with The Sun newspaper, Mr Brown said carrying...

    Packing a SA Trangia

    I'm sure I've seen a post (but can't find it) about how to fit all of the bits of a SA tangia together to avoid the hook flopping about. Can anyone point me at the thread or repeat the instructions? Cheers, Mark

    Very Sad Question (Ultimate Force)

    I'm ashamed to admit it but the fact that I can't identify the Knife Ross Kemp was wearing in the last episode of Ultimate Force is bugging me. :sad6: I am thinking SRK or Fallkniven but the sheath doesn't look right for either. It could just be a cheapo job of course! Mark
