Recent acquisitions to the herd, a Fieldcrafter and a Gary Mills Esk 2. Well impressed with both ergonomics and edge holding ability.

For those that want, Endicotts have/had a few. I ended up with the Grade 1, the 2 sold out really quickly.

I must be getting old or something...I skip past the 'shiny' edged things and that Särmä windproof fishtail parka grabs my eye these days....
Not actually today, but last week decided to take a punt on a Millican Fraser 25L pack as a general day-to-day user.
So far, I've been very impressed, bar a couple of niggles, and might even get around to doing a review of it once it's bedded in.

Been playing around with the Särmä fishtail parka (inside). Works well as intended = as a windproof layer on top of my Särmä M15 wool jacket when it get cold outside. Will not be using the button-on liner that came with the parka.
On all the cinch cords I have added a cordlock, same model as on british military smocks = the two halves can be pulled apart.
This model:

And stitched on to my Driza Bone, and now I have a breast pocket.

What did you get Matey ?

It’s eBay listing is above. The guy selling it is a genuinely nice bloke who’s been messed about by potential buyers and just wants someone to take on his pride and joy now his youngest is starting school and they have to be more fixed location.

It’s a cracker I reckon, just what we’ve been after :)
