Long awaited arrival!
In the picture, you’re looking at the newest addition to my kit list. It’s the Woodlore knife designed by Ray Mears, made in England by Wilkinson Sword. This morning it was waiting for me along with 3 Japanese water stones when I returned from my driving lesson. Frustrated at not being able to find the ideal knife to suit the demands of bushcraft, Ray resorted to making his own and went into production in 1990. It is expertly crafted from O1 high carbon tool steel, which is strong, sharpens to a very fine edge, and has a full tang sculpted scale handle in black Micarta.
Later on in the evening, I was pushed into attending another leaders meeting, which like all discussion meetings, turns into a ranting session of which I am the only one who is never a part of.
