Hi and welcome to Bushcraft UK, good to have you

It's probably a good idea to introduce yourself in the intro forums.

There's a number of people that get together in south wales etc so keep an eye on the Meet up forums, have a look about and see where it goes.

Hi Gowersponger,there is a group of people who meet at least once a month and sometimes as a group of 1-2 for other activities such as canoeing and walking.Can we have some more info from you in the form of an introduction?There is a meet planned for this weekend in Blaen Nedd Isaf there should be quite a few turning out for it.

Hello from another of those going to BNI - there is quite an active scene in South and West Wales...

 

[gowersponger]

cheers for the replies men i will keep my eye out for where and when to meet some of you ive just ordered a frosts mora went for the stainless steel insted of the carbon hope i made right choice?

 

[John Fenna]

Both are good knives but to be honest I prefer carbon.....but if you spend a lot of time fishing, seashore foraging/playing/living stainless requires a lot less maintainance and so probably the better choice.

nice one john thats y i opted for the stainless i hate rust lol does stainless still give good sparks off a steel. like i said iam new to this sorry if i sound abit dim. iam from kent and been liveing here for 4 years now i like the gamefair at llandilo every year good bargains.

Stainless works fine with a firesteel - any sharp item realy - even broken glass at a pinch!
