View Full Version : load of old billhooks
http://www.billhooks.co.uk/
Looked at bills on a number fo sites.
What's the best? How do you choose? Its confusing as there seem to be so many types and brands :-?
Try PMing Jack, he seems to be pretty knoweledgable about them, and has a good selection available.
Hey Jakunen
It all depends what you want to use it for as there are different types for different tasks.......
If you let us know what you are looking to do, then we can perhaps narrow it down for you mate
Basically something for general bushcraft, to clear brush, limb branches for tinder, that sort of thing...
Certianly nothing specialised liek hurdle making or anything.
The newton pattern is a good general allrounder.
Ed
Thanx Ed. Gives me a bit of a narrower field to choose from.
The Newton is the one I have, and I've found it to be very good at general bushcrafty tasks.
The Newton is the best all round billhook, its short nosed and has a lot of power, for anything general this is the one you want mate

The Newton is the best all round billhook
And it's even got my name on it :-)

Ok, thanx guys.
I now just need to justify getting one. I worked out yesterday I've spelt almost ONE THOUSAND POUND this year on replacing kit that has mysteriously vanished, or getting stuff I've never had before... :yikes:
Now I just need to get out into the woods more to justify all the expense...
Ouch!!! £1000 on kit.... I wish the education sector was so well funded, thats more than my yearly budget!!

Explains why I'm skint and have a high credit card bill each month.
I've had to replace a load of stuff due to 1) putting on weight and 2) having left my ex at the start of December and had to move back to my mother's, a LOT of things seem to have vanished. My ex was good at throwing 'rubbish' away...
