MarkinLondon told me about this (before I saw the this thread) and although they are nice I prefer the Mors Pot, but after seeing this thread and being (as most of us are) a gear junkie, I gave into my inner self and purchased one. So now I have both a Mors pot on the way from The States and a Zebra from Woodlore. Happy Days!


Hard to compare the two when the prices are so different. I would much rather have a Mors pot as would many of us I guess but you are talking four times the price.

Mine arrived today. Bargain and delivered quickly!

Standard handle is a pain in the bum it gets in the way for packing. Can see why people swap to brake cable.

Not the snuggest fit together but for a tenner I'm sure it will see some use.

I would prefer the Mors pot too, but this was more my budget :). It was the same when it came to an axe for me I had to go for the Hultafors instead of the GB ones. But I will make them work for me in the mean time and try my best not to get envious when I see a mors in use. :)

I am going to try mine out a few times first to see how much of a pain the handle is. If it bothers me I will swap it over for brake cable as other good folk here have done.

Now I just have to get a simple pouch made, I will use a small hessian shopping bag for this as it worked a treat for my Swedish army trangia and suited my low level of sewing ability. :) I just cut the handles off and made tabs to go round the top and used some cord to feed through and tighten.

The offer is now over, but they still do the 12cm, 14cm and 16cm for £12, £14 and £16 (post-free) - which is the cheapest price I've found.

I love the billy but the bail arm flopping about got on my nerves in about 20 seconds,

I found a bit of thin spring steel knocking about and made a slider to lock the arm.

Woodlore do free delivery on £10 or below I think so I guess the non offer Billies would be plus postage. *waits to be proven wrong*

Ingenious. And won't melt like the plastic clips you usually get on zebras.
