What did you buy today?

[HHazeldean]

Not so much bought as traded...but just got a kukri!! Have wanted one for so long and this one is great. Is going to need a lot of sorting out though so is going to be a fun project too

A roughneck micro shovel for £12.99

these seem to have a good reputation in the metal detecting community, so should perform well digging a dakota fire pit, and other digging tasks.

1 litre of THIS - I need it for the garden of the house I bought back in July. All I can see in bindweed at the moment, I'm hoping this will do the trick. Figured this would be cheaper than green paving slabs as a first try .

[Macaroon]

Yeah, the boy done good! Did you get the funky little oiler with yours?

 

[Robbi]

unfortunately not but at that price i'm not complaining i reckon i can pick up an oiler somewhere that would also do this that i have.........

 

[shutupthepunx]

long time looker, first time poster.

some hide glue

pine resin (im kinda ashamed to be honest cos i could totaly harvest and prepare this myself)

20metres of artificial sinew

some flint pieces (again kinda annoyed as i could have got them myself, but i have never seen flint before so have no idea what it looks like or where to find it)

and two books on smashing the state and bringing down civilisation

 

[Leiflet]

Well, been umming about going a bit basic kit-wise. So, got a Polish (lavvu) poncho, German 1-person groundsheet and Yugoslavian 20 litre rucksack. Daniel Boone I ain't, but it's nice to cut down onthe amount of plastic I carry.

Cheers,
Leif

Another Military mart victim here.....

Its all just basic kit but I'm just starting out so its definitely a step in the right direction toward what will hopefully be my first overnighter next month

Czech army bed roll - very excited by this and the reviews they are getting
Aluminium Pan Grip
Nato Metal Water bottle & kidney cup with cover
Camo Tarp 1.8M X 2.4M to be used as a groundsheet - may be a bit big but I'll see how I get on with it
Jungle Bag Compression Sack
Dutch Aircrew M90 Sleeping bag

Also bought a DD 3x3 tarp from the bushcraft store yesterday along with 100ft of 550 and a GI issue sharpening stone for my Mora.

More than enough to keep my entertained for a while

Thought I'd thrown out my skinny bivi bag with some old clothes. Ordered a Belgian army bivi bag and then found the old one. Well, having two isn't a tragedy. Well, those on here who own six or a dozen might not agree with that.

Cheers,
Leif

[h=1]Roadworks paraffin lamp by Chalwyn[/h]Just picked up one from local seller. Manufactured in between 1960 - 1990s, this was a new old stock. It is run for the first time tonight. It looks good, and works well. Good heat from the top of the lamp. Fantastic.
