Another ressurection sorry.
I was given one of these knives recently and decided to see what could be done with it.
I have put a full convex edge onto the blade and continued the grind almost right...

Never understood the reasoning behind skeleton tangs on a knife of this type,you need the strength in the tang.

The thing that has annoyed me is the fact that he advertises his knives as handmade in the UK when clearly they are not.

If this weather breaks this week I'll take the kids and dog up for a stroll.I'll let you know if we go.

I've only ever walked there once,a long time before they cleared it up.It was a really wild walk then,no paths at all.

I think you'll find penllegaer woods start at the motorway and go the opposite direction to tescos mate.The woods you describe are called cadle woods or valley wood

:)I put a lot of thought into it.

Picture this:-

I'm in the woods ,alone with some kit with me and I need a fire.I also need shelter and water along with food.

Now ,am I in a survival...

I'm in west swansea Mik, right on the edge of Gower.

Welcome aboard from another Jack.

I now use a golite Jam in size large.It has an adjustable volume system and is comfortable as a daysack or as a large week away pack.The only modification I made was to construct a frame out of...

I have no Idea,It was sold quite soon after this thread was started because the back length was just that bit too short and I couldn't get it comfortable carrying anything over about 10 -12 lbs.

I use a golite Jam,it's 50 litres,lightweight and made from dyneema.I can get everything I need for a week into it including food(mostly dehydrated stuff).

I have an Osprey crescent 70 litre for...

For short trips (1 day) I take sandwiches and an evernew burner in an MSR mug.For longer trips I use the same burner with an evernew DX stand and solo cook set.I find these set ups cover everything I...

It's not designed to be used with a windsheild.
It's a copy of the MSR pocket rocket and as such has a built in windshield,it's the little three armed thing sitting on the burner.
I have used these...

I have to 20l size as my daysack and cant fault it.You do have to be a bit careful how you pack it as the back pad is very thin.

Life is like a card game,you should play with what you were dealt,not what you think you should have been dealt.

I can't remember who said it,It may have been me!

That's the same as me.

The one I had was a flat grind,I think it had been altered before it came to me.

I have had both,the F1 is a better all round knife as it has a flat grind.The S1 is more of a camp knife better suited to heavier work.I also had an A2 which a friend of mine used to carve a spoon.In...

I have made a couple of enzos,very easy and a very high quality knife.

The law is quite clear on knives.You can carry ANY knife as long as you have good reason.Where it becomes a very grey area is the definition of good reason.In the woods chopping fire wood any knife...

I actually went to a wedding once,I didn't enjoy it so I'm beggared if I'm going to watch one on the tv when I could be outside.

Good bit of kit and looks a lot stronger than a coke can stove.It looks like a fat and short version of the whitebox stove,I'll give this a go.

Did you use the whole toilet roll?
I just take a pack of tissues.

I use a meths burner for all my cooking and boiling.It's slower than every other fuel but I've never been in a position where I need a brew that quickly.I like the idea of the jetboil but find it is...
