Not seen it yet but Patrick often uses a two piece drill, I have a fancy decorated set he made . It's a hazel stem with a socket that you insert the drill working end.

The drill has a spindle tip fitted into it. It wears out and a new one is fitted. Mine's the same.
It allows different tips to be fitted; a rodent tooth, or a bit of flint to bore a straight sided hole through wood or a shell for instance. A very good tool :approve:

Landward is segments; I'm just really pleased to see bushcraft as one of them :cool: and more pleased that it's someone who really does know his stuff that's doing it :D

Interested to see what he does next week too :)

cheers,
Toddy
