Ok, I'm offering a Sea to Summit emergency field repair buckle. A handy bit of kit if you break a buckle and want to repair it without unpicking all the stitching, if you can). I'll also throw in a small mystery gift as well :)

I can't bear to see a grown man suffer like this and despite saying I wouldn't come here again I find myself looking for an Otterbox, so I'll take this please and in return offer up a used but nicely sharp Mora Eldris in a mustard colour. If needed I'll put up a pic tomorrow.

Thanks Kev, I'll get it off to you.

Just a bump and to say that whenever I've given a mystery gift the recipient has been very happy with it :)

To keep the thread going, and actually because I think I could use that buckle, I'll take that, please.
In return, I'll offer up a lined waxed cotton EDC pouch

I offer a 'Modern Survival Kit' made by me.

Designed to be carried in your rucksack, leg pocket or laptop bag, this small kit will have all of the things that you would need to keep you going for 24hrs. Its like a kinda 'get you home kit'. Hopefully you'll never need it, but its so compact that you can chuck it in your laptop bag and forget about it, until you need it!

Content are:

A 1.2ltr freezer bag: contents goes inside. Also acts as your water carrier.

6 puritabs: to purify collected water.

Torch: will be AA or AAA, depending which one I put in...

Storm matches: 5 with a striker.

Bic Lighter: more reliable flame source.

Cord: 50ft of 2mm dyneema type cord.

Whistle: for signalling, also has a compass on it for cardinal navigation.

Mylar space blanket: for emergency shelter.

Will upload pictures tonight of kit made up.

The little knife and BCUK patch were a nice touch but the star of the show was the sewing kit. Top stopper comes out and there are a load of needles inside. Would have been pleased to have got this without the buckle!

Glad you liked it Spandit, as I said it was a fun little project to carve :)

OK, sorry for the delay and now I have to change my original offer, due to lack of available kit. So now I offer this....

A genuine milbank bag. Never used, but some marks on the outside from storage.
