Received my frost river isle royale bushcraft pack a few weeks back and I'm over the moon :).

Bought a UCO brass candle lantern today!

They're Christmas Presents (officially) :).

Just starting out at the mo but have in the last few days got an Opinel no.8 which I'm very happy with and today I've ordered a Hultafors craftsman knife which was a bargain at £5.50 delivered. Can't wait to put them to work on some small carving projects. I'm just starting to work on a mors try stick! Next on the shopping list is something to keep them nice and sharp - I'm thinking some 1000grit paper plus a leather belt might suffice?

Car boot trip ( first in years ! )

Anyways , was looking for some old tools, axe heads etc etc , none to be had. Bugger ! Picked up a 6'' x 2'' med/fine wetstone, unused fifty pence !

Two industrial steel ( carabiner ) screw nuts £2:00 . Will be used as drip stops if I end up getting hammock.

Was just about to leave , when I spotted some military items, lying under a table. Had a wee closer look. '58 Patt Webbing comprising, Yoke, belt, left and right ammo puch and the dbl kidney pouches at rear. Excellent condition, one AP was a bit dusty, no tears, holes or fraying. Seller wanted £15, I said too high. Guy walked away, I played the same card ! He comes back and says how about £10. Deal done.

I have a particular use for the webbing in mind. I hope to slightly mod some bits ( not a lot though ) , the pick/shovel closure at top of yoke, that will be removed. I want to use the pouches as a carry system for my DSLR and three quality lenses. I will prob's try get the large 58 Patt webbing pack ( out of stock at Military Mart sadly ) to use as main carry, UNLESS, anyone here knows if any of the other packs can attach?
