Your most usefull bit of kit??

[Air Pirate]

My favorite piece of kit is my Duluth Trading Co. Bamboo Knife. I talk it up so much it may seem like I work for Duluth Trading but I don't.

I've chopped many, many, many pieces of firewood with it and it is still sharp enough to easily slice cheese, sausage, or my finger. All that and I've never had to sharpen it.

The dog. It finds critters to look at, gnaws the firewood, scares people away, makes away with other people's lunch/waterbottles (if that was you, I'm really sorry!), craps in awkward places, vomits for effect, swims in stinking bogs, woofs at fish, rolls in fox poo, can find lost children, eats annoying yappy dogs for breakfast, retrieves and then chews atlatl darts and is really warm and snuggly at night. Plus when it gets really annoying I guess I could eat it...

the girl friend or the crusader mug cos both fit perfectly in my life and both have more than one use

For me it's got to be the hammock. Spent an hour in one today and am once again at peace with the world, and my back's stopped hurting - go figure!

Added luxury, my Buffalo top, combine the two and you wont see me for days.

Ooooo. I want it to be a hammock, but I don't have one yet. Same with the Honey Stove. So for now, it's gotta be the Therma-rest

 

[w00dsmoke]

It has to be my kelly kettle, it goes virtually everywhere with me.

But I guess my new snugpack antartica with expanda panel is going to be equally as well used!

Both awesome pieces of kit.

I'd have to say that would be an axe

 

[PJMCBear]

Opposable thumbs - I'd be lost without either of them.

I was trying to think what I use the most, no matter what sort of tramp I happen to be on, and I concluded that it would have to be my walking stick, believe it or not. My favorite ones are bamboo. This isn't to say I always remember to take them but off the beaten path, I am constantly using it to help me stay upright, to help me make it up a steep hill or through rough going and to push foliage out of the way. And provided I don't forget my shoes and don't have more than a couple of miles to go, I could do with nothing else.
