Petzl Tikka, not super bright but it's a back up and good enough for most things around camp.

Had a bit of a windfall so today I treated myself to a Jetboil Zip and Breghaus Freeflow Pro 40 rucksack (to replace my aging Freeflow 35+8). Already had a play. The Jetboil is amazing and the rucksack the perfect size and so light and comfortable its like it isn't there.

I'm as happy as a pig in ****

I'd been thinking of making or buying a lightweight neck knife for a few months. I was thinking of making a kiridashi, but after watching a few videos on youtube by jediknightofthewoods last week I really liked the looks of the Condor Fidelis Neck Knife. So I went to alphabushcraft.co.uk as mentioned in a video and had a look on the site. Well I found a different Condor I ended up buying. I sent off for the Condor Falco, a smaller, more skinner type knife that looks tiny and just what I'm after. After a bit of work on my stones to get it to the edge I like I think it'll be just the ticket. Plus for £22.95 you can't really moan for a high carbon (1075 I think) blade and kydex sheath, though I can see myself making a custom one for it.

Also while in in Homebase today I finally picked up a roll of Gorilla tape. I've seen loads and loads of videos and read loads of posts saying it's by far and away the best duct tape on the market, So I thought 11m for about £7 I'll buy some. WOW!!! I never expected it to be this strong. No question I'm going to be replcing the card wrapped in some decent duct tape I keep in my backpack with this stuff.

I didn't buy anything.... I must be slipping.

Gucci bit of kit though, I must admit.

Very pretty! Where's the outboard motor fit? . Seriously though that's a sweet looking piece of kit. Nice one.

Me, I bought two 2m lengths of 32mm PVC pipe for the princely sum of €4.42 in total. Gonna make me a couple of those bows I've been raving about.

If I don't post again you know I failed.

My keyring peanut lighter arrived today. Cuter than a cute little thing it is too. The O ring seems a bit flimsy and might not last long though but that can be replaced easily enough. Can't complain at the price - Under a fiver delivered.

Got it off ebay here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280890275779?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

 

[oldtimer]

Just had delivered one of those little Police3W torches someone here recommended. Not bad for a couple of quid. It's a bit big for a keyring which is what I wanted it for but I'll find a use for it. I'd almost forgotten I'd ordered it but it had to come all the way from Hongkong. How do they make a profit?
