Would love to see as many of your home grown gear as possible Tony. :tu:

For my part I'll be bringing all my SAK and MT mods plus a selection of other stuff.  Bow, arrows, and axes both chopping and throwing. :)

I'll bring some of my SAK (let me know if you want to see anything in particular), a few folders and probably my ESEE Junglas (we'll have wood to split right :D)
Couple of flashlights too ;)

Bear in mind I'll be coming on the bike so space is limited  :salute:

Zag, a cheeky request - can you bring that lovely handmade knife you brought last year please. I think the heat got the better of me and I didn't have a proper look!

If we have the van still, I can throw a couple of logs in if people want to play with saws and axes  :D

I have been thinking of things I would like to see  :think:

Does anyone own a Michael Morris friction folder they can let me fondle  :drool:
In fact friction folders of any make would be good  :tu:

Just had a thought today; anyone got a Sharpmaker they could bring with them?  I keep hearing just how wonderful they are but have never tried one, nor seen one in action. :)

I'm on the wood thing too mate :tu:

I'll bring a couple of decent chunks that we can abuse with your choppy things and I'll prob bring a couple of log tormenters too including wood grenade and splitting maul. You might want to add one of your bow saws to the list mate  :salute: If there's enough room in the boot (and on the suspension  :rofl: ) I'll chuck in a pack or two of the compressed sawdust logs to allow some late night laziness.

I'll probably be bringing my UKPK too  :)

I'm planning on bringing a few logs with me this time, not nearly enough to last a night but every little helps.

Bow, crossbow, axes billhook etc should make their usual appearance.  Happy to try and bring anything else on request.

It was quite amazing how much wood we got through last time* so the more the merrier :tu:

*Admittedly with all the wind I think we were up to smelting temperatures most of the time :D
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

Indeed.

Tony, any idea what happened to the half tree that came down last time?  We could help with its disposal if its still there.
