ive a bushmans axe Johnny , seems too light for the length so far. great for limbing and felling / chopping through small diameter timber. not very good for splitting tight grains . overall A good camp axe...just not suited for me.

Thanks for that mate. Got the Ray Mears wilderness axe and just a little too heavy for smaller work but splits well. Sold my Scandinavian Forrest axe which was a mistake as it was a good all rounder.

Will do. I've been needing something a little larger than my GB wildlife hatchet for camp work.

Mini Sawyer filter, two books on John Muir, book on tracking Naked and Marooned on dvd and a pair of Ron Hills to keep me legs warm when running!

Some good reading, a bath chap, beer, nuts for beer, glow paint, led motion sensor light, CoD Ghosts, an Animal fleece lined shirt, duffle bag, true utility micro torch and a flint and steel. Also an abcess on a tooth and a, predictable, gout attack so the balance is restored.

Bob, cool collection of loot for your Christmas, the Norwegian Wood book seems to be the new must have bushcraft item, from what I've read of it its cracking by the way.
Can I ask about the bath chap? Its sparking off memories in the back of my brain as a sort of cake/confection. Is that correct or 'am I going slightly dolally?

I got a great prezzie of some very nice fabric from Toddy so I can make a bushshirt to go along with the cloak that I'm still trying to figure out. I see lots of sewing in my future.
