Looks good. I'm not a metal worker at all so that really impresses me. I could make you one out of some exotic wood, but something makes me think yours would win.

I've got a wrangler, an extensive survival kit, lots of guns, and a place to go.
I'm surprised that a kangaroo ball bag only goes for $7. We should all buy one for our marbles.
I wasn't making fun of the atlatl or the use of primitive weaponry, I was rather giving an alternative.
But it is nice to see FVR hop on the gun bandwagon!
I don't mind letting the fire cut the logs but it seems like I need to watch it more when the wood is hanging out of the fire ring. I know it can't travel that fast but it makes me feel better...
I'm sorry. I make the mistake sometimes of thinking that it's still America in ALL the states, not just mine. Arguably a rifle is a much better survival tool than a handgun anyway, but it's still...
Arizona has a really diverse climate, contrary to what people think. Durring the summer the desert is really hot in the day and kinda hot at night. In the winter it can range from 85-90 in the day...
Nice project there. I really like the hat band with the holder for two bullets. One of those just in cases I guess. Does the hat come in .45LC? LOL. Really nice work.
I love my folding saw. I didn't even buy the best one out there either. Mine is a Coghlans sierra saw, and it really tears through logs. I like it because cutting a log is safer than trying to...
I'll stick with my .45 Long Colt. In a pinch I would try building something, or just for giggles, but my recommendation is to have a gun in your survival kit.
I decided this after building a...
Another bit of advise would be to only take them into the car when you go out. Yeah, it's a lot of moving stuff around but your food will last longer.
After my father and I were stuck on a...
Dolphins have a uncanny reputation for protecting people from great white sharks. It seems that dolphins are scarry to sharks, and they like helping out another critter in need. It's a mammal thing.
The necklace thing works, but his is definately too much to carry around the neck. It's a soft tissue dammage risk. I carry a whistle, flint, and LED keychain light when I go camping and it really...
If you don't have too much experience yet I would find some local camping areas that are more maintained and start there first. These are typically closer to town and that makes it easier should the...
Yes welcome.
Nativedude hits it on the head when it comes to animals. The ones in the city are definately more dangerous than the ones in the forest. I carry a gun when I camp and hike and it's only for two...
I carry a large assortment of flies in my survival kit because they don't take up any space at all and I don't think that a thousand of them weigh more than a few ounces. I will confess that I don't...
I was thinking about that too when I read the first post Owl Girl. Way to kill everyone's furvor about getting food for needy people. To extrapolate that it means that one person would need to...
This is a great place for gaining information and learning about everythign outdoors. Read a lot, and you will be richer for the experience. Welcome!
Those who will give up freedom for safety deserve neither and will lose both. There has never been a gun that decided one day to get up and go kill someone. The person behind the gun is where the...
And yes, I cannot forget Sarge who helped make it all possible. I'll post that story as well under general survival discussion.
Don't know if you all remember me, but it's good old Survival Hike. Through the saint like forgiveness and unmatched understanding of our moderator Chris, I have been allowed back into the wolf pack....
still here as well.
I'm not a big fan of killing animals either unless the situation dictates it. I'm not above eating fresh caught fish, but I am comfortable with that little slice of hypocracy. I hope you did eat...
Can't tell ya...Secret family recipe.
Though I would venture to say that at least the tape comes off the balls in flight. Whether the ball actually deforms or not I have no idea, but I wouldn't...
