This is my new John Nowill Sheffield treebeater I have just taken delivery of after someone relieved me of my last one. I have always carried a machette on my bergen after trying to clear tree branches from the trackplan of a harbour area using an entrenching tool. One of the other guys had a...

Hi all, I thought that I'd post a couple of reviews I wrote on another board to get myself started Like a lot of guys in the Infantry I carried a Metal mug in my beltkit instead of mess tins. It gets used for everything, cooking, brews, shaving, digging a hole to do what bears do in the woods...
