Rankin got bitten in Costa Rica, not in the USA. They did get the snake right though...:)

When I first spotted this "airplane part" inspired knife on British Blades, it immediately appealed to me. It reminded me of one airplane in particular that I have fond memories of. Frederiek is fairly new to the BB forum and I have followed her work with interest. Scandinavian style blades...

Martin Swinkels did the sheath for this one. The partial orange liners are mostly hidden by kydex but still perform the task of relocating the knife in snow etc. very well. The smaller hole through the bolster houses a 18mm Scout firesteel. It is small, but still long enough to get a decent...

Yes, it is a bit out of focus but Stu marks all of his knives with his name and steel selection :mosquitos:

The MkII version of Secare was finished yesterday and is currently on its way to be sheathed. Stu sent me these pictures to hold me over until I get the chance to look over and try out the differences between the prototype in the review and this one. I'll post some more when that moment arrives!

Great outing. I love wild mushroom foraging. Thanks for showing

Thanks folks, I appreciate the nice comments and always enjoy seeing pictures of your trips. The insects were not too fierce, but as you said, the occasional blackfly or horsefly can be extremely annoying and persistent. My main adversaries were swarms of red ants and at night the mosquitos...

Lovely canoes and looks like a great trip! Thanks for sharing with us.

Had the pleasure of hiking the south Albanian coast this summer, not far from the Greek border in the Drino Valley. The idea was to hike south to Sarande, following the coastline as much as possible. This isn't always easy, as the coastline is volcanic in nature and consists of incredibly sharp...

Thanks for the comments. Using the bolster of your knife is never ideal, but in a pinch, it is nice to know that you can. Norca, best to get info directly from Stuart about the expected price.

Hi Rick. Stu will be making an MkII model based on the input he's received from a number of testers. MkII will have a slightly extended edge (the edge will start right at the ricasso area), a lashing tube through the bolster, satin finish, a slightly rounder area around the bottom bolster and a...

I believe that some of you may have seen this knife on Stuart Mitchell's table at Knives UK a few weeks back. I found myself in the lucky position to try out this new Survival Knife prototype during a recent trip. Number 476 is made from 5mm RWL34, has a full flat grind and retains its thickness...

Congrats! Now get some sleep!

Does anybody here use the small 100ML bottles of commercially available hand sanitizers as a viable fire starter? And can some of them (with glycerine mixed in) be used to create a flame mixed in with potassium permanganate? Thanks!

Thanks for posting the pictures and your commentary, wish there were more posts like this.

Good post, thanks for the tips.

Looks like you had fun! What were you cooking there all wrapped in alu foil?

Putting a razor blade in the battery compartment might be frowned upon when you go through airport security...

Glad your 7th picture isn't below the last two :) Looks like you had a great day out with your daughter, thanks for sharing.

And a BIC holder on your sheath, well, it just doesn't look right :rolleyes:
