Thanks to all for the kind words. Your forums have been a great source of info and inspiration. We (over in the states) have some groups and outings that would fall into the bushcraft style of doing things, but it seems that you folks really have a passion for it.
It's been cold, 30 degree F but I am looking forward to getting out as soon as the weather breaks a bit. For now, I am making your style of bushcraft knives and getting the "kit" squared away.
Thanks again and happy holidays.
