My 2nd Sawyer mini. I got fed up rooting out my bergan to take the one I use for camping trips every time I was going out for the day. It made absolute sense to buy another one to leave in my daysack.

My wife doesn't think that's a justifiable putrchase...you guys get it though, huh?

Small garden trowel from the bargain bin at the newsagents for 30p and a couple of watertight 'Klip Seal' boxes from poundland. One for FAK the other as a case for my mobile phone.

I went on a bit of an eBay spree the last couple of days. Nice when you have a bit of free cash to blow on stuff (nice little car sailing through its M.O.T.)

300mm of 2mm Brass bar rod (for the Enzo necker in my post a few above this)
Pair of Green Canvas Micarta Blanks (again for the Enzo necker)
10pcs Abrasive belts 25mmx762mm(1"x30") £3 for a 10 pack bargin!
Phillips Professional Gun Blue paste (I've been wanting to try bluing some blade steel, tried a bit on an old Stanley blade and that stuff is effective!)
2.8MM Thick Veg Tan Leather 12" x 12" (for a mulitool sheath and maybe the necker)
HSS Super Extra Long Professional Twisted Drill Bits 3mm, 250mm long (for drilling knife tail holes in wood)
100pc 1/2" Sanding Bands Kit with 2 Sanding Drum Mandrel For DREMEL (as I've run out)
Aluminum Paracord Needle With Screw Thread (after loosing my good old brass one I made years ago and not being bothered to make a new one, and to see you can pick up one on ebay for a quid).
100ft Proper 550 Paracord (you can never have enough paracord, especially wen I just gave a friend about 300ft as he'd never used it before, he's now a convert)
External 50000mAh Power Bank Pack Portable USB Battery Charger (£12, for that price worth a try)
Timex Vintage Milatary Aviator Type Chronograph Watch (I've been after a Vietnam style watch, just a big bigger, found one from America. Just need to see if it need 18 or 20mm straps and I'll get A strap I know I want to replace the band with). The one I got http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/381398453178?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

And not bushcrafty, but I LOVE the old Survivors TV series (the original 70's version, NOT the remake from about 2008). Years ago I got the DVD boxset of all 3 series and LOVE it, but I found out the single series releases have some more extras, like some episode commentaries (something I really like). Well I sent of for series one used off Amazon UK for £3. BTW If you also like it, Big Finish are doing audio dramas, even with some of the original cast, 40 years on. Still set in the 70's when it happened. They are REALLY REALLY good!!!
