Our web statistics have revealed a glitch in the Matrix recently. Our article on how to pitch a tarp has been receiving an inordinate amount of traffic. The rather large video file has been downloaded hundreds of times.
At first, we feared this might cause bandwidth problems. We had, after all, been operating on the assumption that we would never have more than one concurrent user (you know who you are!).

One worry still remains, however. A lot of traffic has come from the wonderful Bushcraft UK site. So, either they are laughing at us, or, more worryingly, they are under the illusion that anyone at Outdoor Idiots.com has some competence in the field of "bushcraft".
Just in case it is the latter, we have thought long and hard about how we can dispel any such illusions. And here is our answer. We've asked our most "bushcrafty" team member to do an article for us. And, we asked him to do it on that most sacred of subjects for any bushcrafter: yes, The Knife. We hear your gasps. Now read on...
