    Ventile clothing

You do need a double layer of ventile to be completely protected from the elements and it is only a hard wearing outer shell in extreme conditions not very insulating...

    Hardening 01 Steel ?

    I have made quite a few knives over the last few years, and what I use to harden the steel is a hole in the ground about 5 inches deep filled with charcoal.
