Bought Hestra Falt Guide Gloves on Monday, they were delivered on Wednesday (shipping to Belgium), amazing! I ordered the Woodlore Anniversary Edition ones, as they were 15 GBP cheaper! They fit excellent and I can't wait to put them through their paces.

I'm intersted in those but raymears.com just gives me a "Sorry, access is forbidden" message?

 

[Ruud]

strange, by clicking on the link you posted I get on the website without a problem. Sometimes you can evade those messages by using a detour (search ray mears on google or another search-engine and click one of the links that come up, maybe that works?)

Hit the charity shop and flea market trail and lucked out and found several as new items! Stuff that had been used at most once or not at all.

OG medium old school Karrimor sympatex jacket in medium, fits youngest two sons spot on £5
OG. Snug Pak Sleeka jacket fits eldest, as new except a greasy collar that's washed off fine. £5
Promotional The North Face 1 litre Sigg bottle £2
Leather Scarpa boots to fit me, just some mud on soles not a scuff or bit of wear on them, £15 which has chuffed the mint balls out of me as my last air has just worn through. I much prefer this old style boot, without all the pointless plasticky bits on them.

Mini Diamond Sharpening stones.

I wanted something small so that I would actually take them out and about with me, I would probably only carry the 360 grade, approx 3" X 1" if I have interpreted the advert correctly, there are others like this branded and priced differently.

3 lovely new DD underblankets...hammock winter camping with my kids is now an option!

Going to be sensible though and have a test run during the day then a local overnighter (so we can quickly scamper home if required). The kids are seriously excited about hammocking in the snow...as am I...but 'responsible Dad' me has to keep 'reckless adventurer' me in check sometimes...

I've just got my Gransfors hunters axe and a shark designs paddle strop as a bit of a treat seems as though I've been ill all week - it's brought a smile to my face .

Hope you're feeling better, and remember "there must be pictures of the items or they don't really exist! Would be interested to hear about the paddle strop too!

Ah cheers mate! I seem to be improving but I don't dare jinx it . Paddle strop is lovely- double sided and on a lovely piece of beech i believe. Touched up a few blades just to give it a go and it is really good. I'll have to go and get a photo soon. Hunters axe is a lovely new toy- only had a little go but I've had the bug for 10 days so with any luck it shan't be too long till I get to give it a proper workout .

Here are some photos (along with my relatively new silky and woodlore firesteel (and a very handy little super scraper .
