ha ha yeah I noticed that on the last reply too, last year was a very cheap and very chearfull wilko job, no good what so ever, that was just for a festival, pretty new to this whole wild camping and walking, in fact only started walking the fells over the past 6-8 months, but I do enjoy getting out there, looking to do our first wild camp next week, hopefully...if I get any time off work long enough !!

Not today, but when Valtteri (Varusteleka) made his offer of 10% off I bought:

Särmä Windproof Smock. olive green. 2X-Large Regular
Särmä merino wool long sleeve shirt. black. 2X-Large
Terävä Jääkäripuukko 140. w/ leather sheath

I have been wearing the jacket for all woodland and field archery time since delivery. Very good so far, the only small issue i have is trying to find some way of rolling the very large hood into a handy collar, because the tape loop and button are a bit too tight. I will keep my eyes opn for some OG Velcro and make something up for myself. I am a big convert to merino, and the long sleeve shirt is very comfy and warming, for a very reasonable price. The puukko seems to be holding its edge well, but i have only cut some wood with it so far into feathersticks. It was certainly super sharp on delivery :)

Try rolling the hood in the direction of inside the smock (opposite from what you would normally do) and it should sit abit better also keeps the hood dry if it's raining and you have not took it out.

It was my birthday, and I hadn't bought a new knife for nearly 2 years so I was spoiled with gifts (from myself and others)!
