Hello everybody, new user to bushcraft forum, this is a most excellent site, a treasure trove of information regarding the great outdoors and living in harmony within it. I am 39 yrs old and have had a long interest in outdoor pursuits, camping, fishing (carp& pike) hiking, scuba diving, body boarding, power kite flying & most recently self supported cycle touring. I have had a go at carving my first wooden spoon to teach knife skills, but not with great success as yet. hope to learn much from the numerous very knowledgeable members of this forum, thanks
