I believe there are 3 bushcraft titles that all came out roughly the same time. I can't recall which one came out "first".

Mind you, would you count the old S.W.&.T. as a semi-bushcraft mag?

I used to get S.W.&.T. magazine years ago - I've look in the larger new agents for it and it would appear to be no longer published. Used to be a good read. I wonder when it publication stopped?

There is also another "first" bushcraft magazine that is produced in the village I live in: -

"The Bushcraft Magazine is the first UK magazine to deal with bushcraft as a subject in its own right. Covering a wide range of bushcraft topics from Arrow to Yarrow, it is printed quarterly." Website here

I got the current issue of it and found it a decent read.. I subscribe to this forums mag as well. The two are different enough IMO to say there is room enough for both. I hope they all continue

I don't think it really matters who is 'First'. What matters is 'are they any good'? Perhaps someone should do a sort of 'Which' guide to Bushcraft Mags and report back. Any takers?

Somebody did a while back, can't remember who though. I'm not sure if it contained all of the mags currently available, but there were quite a few. It may have been updated aswell

Agreed, timing doesn't matter. I could do it, if someone wants to give me the recent issues...

Ha! I was taking a look at the website, and they have a sort of slideshow with different pages of the magazine. I am there! I am the guy on the third page(?) from the beggining, wearing a blue pullover with stripes on the arms, and holding a bunch of straw on fire. It is from the friction fire lighting course with Dave Watson.

The last magazine under the educational heading on the Springfields site is in fact the one published by this site
