A tubby suburban dad watching hunting and adventure shows on TV and wondering could I do that? This is the chronicle of my adventures as I learn to learn to Forage, Hunt and Fish for food that has lived as I would wish to myself - Wild and Free.

A Tale Of Two Bushmen AKA Bargain Alert
I've been reading the blog written by the American Bushman for ages and marvelling at his knife collection - he doesn't just think 'that looks cool I wonder what it's like to use' he buys one and finds out just exactly how cool each design is. As you probably know after a while it's easy to end up with more stuff than one bushman can practically carry so he's decided to lighten his load by having a bit of a clear out.
Good news for us!
Inspired by the Backyard Bushman's posts about his EDC I've snaffled the Mikro Canadian II by the Bark River Knife and Tool Co. and a few other bits which I'll review as usage allows.
There are still loads of handsome blades for sale - take a look.
Happy Hunting

Please feel free to leave comments. I really enjoy hearing what readers think. The rules are the same as round my dinner table:
You're welcome to disagree, life would be way too boring if we all agreed with each other and we'd never learn anything.
I like to think that we're all grown up enough to argue every last point, right down to the bone, without bearing a grudge afterwards.
Come on in the waters lovely

It gets bad when you don't buy just one of something...
ReplyDeleteYou'll notice lots of multiples being listed. If I really like a design and think it might not be run again (like the Bark River Limited Editions) I snag as many as I can afford sometimes in the same handle materials.
It may sound crazy but having to send in a knife for service is easier if you've got a spare to use while your user is gone.
Yeah, THAT is exactly how one Bushman ends up with so much stuff...

Thanks,
