    Slipped through the post yesterday! The book is quite an interesting read so far; more geared towards 'preppers' I suppose but good at explaining areas most people wouldn't think about for a future after an event.
    My first venture into Fenix; so far it's on par to led lenser but excellent on weight and size.

    I also have a Fenix LD22 that I carry when I need more than just my single cell pocket light.

    It has held up well for me.

    Been after an old frame sack for ages..It's 'Bergans of Norway' not familiar with the name/make but it's in A1 nick and very well made, it will get used a lot, it's feather light too....

    That is the brand that gave name to the military slang for a rucksack...Bergan :-)

    It is a quality piece of gear, and it looks to be in tip-top shape too, and in it's time it was top of the line.
    A modern version of that pack will set you back around 300£ here in Norway.

    They also have a an excellent range of tents and outdoor clothing and are a well known brand here in Scandinavia.
