I haven't ever spent a lot of money on knifes... being quite contempt with the mora but I fancied a folder for when I pop out for a forage so I ordered a Svord Mini Peasant... Perhaps the mora-equivalent of folders?

But I couldn't decide if I wanted the mini or the standard peasant so I ordered that as well
and then, just so I didn't have to pay postage I ordered a spyderco bug for the key ring

Ever been outside, or anywhere and wished that you had scissors or a knife... I used to also, but not anymore.

Oh, and then along side the need for a sharp edge every now and then do you ever find you just wish you had a compass, well...
I found the Silva Watch Strap Compass being sold for £2.99 here: http://www.patrolstore.com/Carabiner-Watch-Strap-Compass.html

So... I bought a couple of them too...

I'll never be lost and I'll never not have a sharp edge again... unless I am on a plane...

I'll also report that the Svord Mini Peasant was the size I was looking for to compliment the Mora I carry!

For any one who wants a reference as to the sizes of the peasants in comparison to the well known mora, here you go:

an issue arctic sleeping bag for a homeless bloke who had all his possesions torched by some drunken scummy scrote and a pair of issue reversible trousers for me for £3 bargain.

Good on you. Real practical help trumps every bleating bleeding heart. Well done.

 

[Biker]

One of these

figured with the Brrhahaharr type weather almost upon I'd better invest. Seemed rude not to at that price. £4.57 and free P&P from this seller

Let's hope it fits my bonce.

Another old Bialaddin 315 - rust all over, dirty, very rough looking - I never thought it would work, but got it for a pound, so I will use it for parts, I thought. Brought home, took it apart, cleaned wee bit, put them back, filled fuel, lit up, and voila, it works.

With an eye to the coming winter as well as general outdoor use, a pack of 2 aluminium takedown shovels from Costco for £15 - virtually identical items from specialist climbing shops cost £60 each!

bought some leather scraps to go with my basic leatherworker kit, the smell of leather is so amazing... I'll probably just be churning out keychains as an excuse to sit there smelling the stuff

also bought this stonewashed beauty https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=S...j4GABg&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1920&bih=955&dpr=1
