What did you buy today?

[Sundowner]

After a long and thorough think, I finally got my finger out and forked out for a pair of Fjällräven vidda pro trousers. Only had them on before buying but was already surprised how comfortable they feel. And yes, I checked the label and they're not made in China but in Vietnam. However, the good news are that they were in the sale. So it was £ 115 instead of the usual £145

That's a good catch, I've used a fair bit of kit from them over the years and it's always been great. My favourite cast iron skillet is from them and is every bit as good as the expensive American cookware.

I've got a Muurikka kettle at my Dad's in Sweden and was going to get one and bring back with me, but the shop where I got it only had a 3L one in stock this time around. This one does look like a very good alternative though.

Mini Skrama as an early birthday present, absolutely love it.

Aldi fishing jacket in brown woodland cammoflage. I don't fish but it's waterproof and looks nice and warm. I can finaly get rid of my pink waterproofs! (They were not my choice but bought for me by well meaning pal trying to girlyfy me.)

Not bushcraft as such, just being a big kid really; a slingshot, 10 spare bands and 200 ball bearings all with express post for a grand total of £17!

But, as if to redeem myself slightly, the post's just brought my qvarfot axe (which was considerably more expensive). I'm very excited about my new "toys"..... time for a little trip out somewhere I think

FIXNZIP zipper pull fix. Pricey! but the best looking fix for a replacement and additional zipper.

I found a zip pull has fallen off my jerven bag - not sure how that's happened! and I've been wanting to add an additional one on the long side to allow an opening to be created anywhere along the length so go a pack of 2...

Just treated myself to some Swedish M90 camo pants for a bargain price! Needless to say, I will be on here moaning if they don't turn up or are chinese rubbish!

Nothing to do with bushcraft, a new multifuel stove for my narrowboat.

The extravagance arrived today and I don't think it will now find its way onto a watch strap as per the secondery option:

Not bushcrafty but I picked up a lovely little spinning wheel today, an Ashford Traditional.

Always fancied a down under-quilt so bought this to make into one - when I find time. Might work......might not (it does seen pretty thin)

Down quilt.

It was listed at only £39 at the time, then because of a delay, I asked what the online MOD Discount code was, so they took another £8.

Total cost £31! (Was £119.99 originally) - BARGAIN!!

I just bought a Kernow Bushcraft waxed cotton bag for my Kelly kettle. Twelve quid - bargain.

A pair of Italian army "style" combat trousers. The originals were the best I've had for rough outdoor stuff, but haven't been able to get them for a few years.
