lost in the wilderness

[mikeb46]

is my Gransfors Hatchet.

to least say i am rather annoyed, i did try and retrace my steps but the light gave up and as did i.
i had it on my belt it must of just slipped off somewhere and i didn't notice, i hope it didn't drop into any streams i crossed or bogs.

Welcome.

my wife has just lost the car keys. Have been turning the house upside down for best part of 2 hours. Jeez.

So glad it was not me

I`d be up at first light looking for it, but then again I am a Yorkshireman

Hope you find it

Best of luck in finding it, never good when you lose something

Where abouts were you camping/walking *mercenary*

 

[ZDP-189]

The one with your name engraved on it? It's probably still with the campers in the shallow grave by the dog path.

 

[mikeb46]

i am up and ready to go.
its not near any footpaths really on "right to roam" moor land and the edge of forestry, if anyone knows it its up above Corwen on the Berwyn moors.

Now you've alerted all the bushcrafters on the net, the area will be alive with folks looking for a bargain, have got a grid reference ?, as i'm emailing from my mobile while driving to Wales...

Not on the same scale but I once lost my Opinel in a wood; went back a week later and found it
Strangely also found a pen
I can see the very knife from where I am sitting now
go back and look ;retrace your steps
good luck

 

[Chopper]

I would buy two more...I live in the prosperous south.

one time me and my mate went out to this spot we used to go bushcrafting and he lost his zippo lighter. we spent ages searching for it and i even went back the next weekend looking for it but with no luck. then about two months later i happened to be down and started to make a brew when i looked down and there it was staring me in the face!

More inspiration for me NOT to spend $100.00 on a hatchet lol

 

[rancid badger]

Well, if you find it, you need to sort out a means of carrying it securely:

I normally carry my axe or hatchet, in my bag when I'm moving from one place to another but an axe hanger with a security strap, allows you to keep your axe/hatchet handy, if that's what you need.

Welcome to the site by the way
cheers

ahh found it, was a bit cold and and wet though.




it drop off as i hopped this fence, just didn't notice until about 500 meters away.



might have to invest in a better means of carrying it, but i normally take my ruck sack with my small forest axe tucked safety away in that, just on of those day i decided to go light.

 

[Shewie]

You jammy sod Mike

 

[Mistwalker]

At least you found it before the rest of the group converging on your area found it

 

[Peter_t]
