These are brilliant knives, and friendly UK carry. I've got a Micarta one but tempted to get a second orange one for in the woods.
 
I understand that hexamine is now illegal to own, just in case unaware.

but my stash of cheap hexamine, planning on using it in my model steam engine mostly....
because it has a little slide out fuel tray, it wont like alcahol gel.....

"Zip High performance Barbecue lighters", not the horrible card board things, look like/seem to be similar to hexi. According to the box they are made with kerosene. Burns for quite while when lighting the house woodstove. Not tried them on my hexi stove yet, probably this weekend.

Yesterday (Friday) Morrisons selling whole salmon @£7.50 kg!!!!
Dunno how long THAT might last!
 
I wouldn't eat farmed salmon if you paid me £75 a kilo! The Soil Association are currently considering whether to withdraw from certifying salmon as even organic production methods are an ecological horror.

I run on Lidl/Aldi frozen wild caught salmon, £7.50/kg full price. Delicious and MSC certified, but questionable, transported halfway round the planet and far from ideal still, but the lesser evil by my reckoning.
 
OK!
You don’t buy farmed salmon and I don’t buy from Temu.

Whether the evils are “lesser” Is just personal politics. If this is a discussion then let’s take it to another thread

Hope everyone gets a great bargain at this time.
