AW Woodlore Wanted

[MikeDB]

Not to bore anyone with a long story so abridged events.

House needed funds, sold some of my collection.

Finally arrived at top of a waiting list, received lovely new knife.

Passed older user on.

Had daysack nicked.

Have replaced sack, tarp, possibles kit, crook knife, stove, saw, first aid kit, Gladius and billycan.

Will need to work on my kuksa.

I need to replace my new Woodlore.

I know it’s a long shot but no harm in asking.

Would prefer trades or part cash/trade as funds are a tad low at the mo.

Anyone want a nice new Sebbie? (Lots of other stuff available too)

Cheers for looking

Mike

That's a rotten bit of luck, getting all that kit stolen. Mate, you must've been severely p*ssed off.
Why do people do things like that?

S0rry but I can't help you out with the Woodlore - I just couldn't read this thread and not comment. People who do things like that really annoy me.

I know you've probably looked into this, but have you really gone into your insurance?

I bet the scrote who stole it has no idea as top it's value either, intrinsic and monetary.

 

[ArkAngel]

Sorry i can't help with a replacement, but to increase your chances post the same thing over on British Blades.

Good Luck

Mike has posted on BB .. and the insurance sorted things thankfully

 

[MikeDB]

Thanks for the concern guys, well appreciated.
As Mike said, the insurance will deal with the money side of things, it's just the waiting time for the replacemant that gets me. It could have been worse though, I'd only just swapped bags as I had a break in the weather. Had I not the theiving scum would have found my camera kit instead and while I could have replaced that too you can't replace the images.

Hi Mike,
Sad hear about the theft there are some right @"£$%£***@ about sadly I can't help with the knife but like many others really had to just say something.
Cheers Tim

Now that the insurance has come through - there is a belter with a stag handle on eBay at the moment, you may have to add a bit to the RM website price though.

Just a little indeed.

I can see that going for a huge sum and while I could bid and maybe even win methinks SWMBO would use it to reduce my not inconsiderable weight a tad

I don't think that the Alan Wood antler knife will go much beyond what it is on now, the minions don't know that it is a nicer knife than the Woodlore, and many people who bid on Woodies won't like the fact that Rays name is not on there.

Good luck wih your quest, and I hope your old one bites the buggers that nicked it.

 

[Bushcraft4life]

S-orry to here about that Mike.

And echo at Jonathon D, lets hope that knife does more than give a little bite to those buggers.

Good luck with your search for a new woodie

 

[MikeDB]

I may have found one so I'm a happy bunny at the moment.
I'd be even happier if I find the carpark theives.
I like to bet my Bickerstaffe and a cloth yard would fly truer and faster!
