That looks interesting. I don't need one but....
If you would like some vinyl cut for either jar labels or for masks to etch the glass surface give me a shout. I've just picked up a cutter module for my 3d printer.
Thanks Grebby, I'll bear that in mind once I work out the herbs I want to pack
Varusteleka Skrama Double Sheath with a Skrama 240 and a Jääkäripuukko 85 in it. I added to this a second Jääkäripuukko 85 in the leather sheath plus a handful of moral patches.
I have finally succumbed and a Skrama 240 is winging it's way to me.
Yes, Varusteleka is a great company. I have all of their current Skrama and Jääkäripuukko and regularly carry them into Everglades National Park.
If I had one desire to improve these knives it would be that they be offered in some form of stainless steel. The Peltonen knives, have an N690 steel option that I think is great. I carry the Peltonen M07 in N690 quite a bit with no worries about rusting in the humidity.
With the tarrifs, I try to pick up the superb Finnish made knives when they appear on sale. Varusteleka offered a 15% discount for Independence Day to USA addresses, to help offset the tariffs. Additionally, they have a loyalty plan that is quite easy to move to their premium level. At that level, shipping, from Finland to my home in Florida is cost free to me.
Picked up a British army shemagh today. Such a handy bit of kit in the summer.
And, there's some population control to be getting on with, so bought these too.

They have been but if I remember correctly there were some production issues with it, have to ask when I'll visit the shop on Thursday.
That's what I read. At the same time the Peltonen M07 M690 steel knives are made at Laurin Metalli Oy. Isn't that the same company that makes the Varusteleka knives? I missed out on the stainless Jääkäripuukko 85 that came out this year but was able to get a few of the Jääkäripuukko 80 and two of the kitchen knives, all in stainless. The stainless Jääkäripuukko are not as thick as the carbon steel blades but I reckon they don't need to be.
I saw this if anyone wants something similar , it uses a shotgun caddy which can be sourced cheaply - if you get some of the vitamin C tube containers from Lidl / Aldi you can trim them down to fit.
Two sets of kiddies sucker on, car window sun shades . Put them on my small bathroom, and toilet windows which gets a lot of sun. Works realy well to shade the rooms and keep the sun out.
Well, if it works on cars, why not other windows?

If you stick them on the outside they'll be even more effective
and very much so
That's remarkable. I have carried salt, pepper and sugar packets obtained from fast food joints while hiking and have been told I overthink things. You've taken your hiking food game to the next level.
