Where did you get that, looks nice. Had a look on Ali, but didn’t see any Petrified ones I liked, apart from a folding one that was shaped like a shark when open, I particularly liked the blade profile, the PFE10, it has what I think, might be called a Wharncliffe shaped blade. I like a flat blade like on Sheep’s foot etc. The thing that puts me off buying it is, I could imagine such overly officious customs seizing it as a” dangerous looking knife “ and at £78, it’s too much money to risk. But I do like yours, but couldn’t find it.
Ah, PF direct, came in at £37.18 delivered.


Front flipper takes some getting used to, but it’s beautifully made. Impressed me enough to take some unboxing pics.

Today’s latest purchase (well actually it turned up last night was a one wind poncho liner/top quilt for my hammock. You tube reviews seem good but I’m interested if anyone else has one for an honest (not sponsored) opinion.

I plan on sneaking away for a little wild camp on Friday night so will let you know. I also have the Onewind under quilt so hopefully they work well together.

A sweet little candle lantern. I can use it with tea lights, but am wondering if it once also had a little oil lantern insert. It's made by Coleman. Anyone seen one of these before? Any info on it? Got it in the charity shop, as it stands, tho i did put the tealight in myself. 20240909_155235.jpg

Just did a Google search on the image, the sellers of it that I found are all selling it as a tea light lantern, so I’d say no, just tea lights. :)

Thanks, I don't know how to search with an image, could only find much larger citronella candle lantern when I searched Google.
Guess what.....I've just dropped it and smashed the glass shade!!!
Gutted!
May try and make a new shade from a small glass bottle. I'm too teed off to think about it tonight.
Doesn't give a lot of light out, but I reckon if I had citronella t lights, it would be a great bit of kit for anti midge operations in camp.
Anyway. Thanks for searching for me.

Likewise, really does seem to only be a lantern for tea lights. Link here for an eBayUS listing that handily notes you can store a spare one in the base: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/22623216...Vm8AsQ-QMa&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Looks like there are quite a few non-Coleman unbranded ones around too, presumably copies.
