I saw this and thought what a great motivational idea. Try improving yourself in an area by 1 %.
One of the things I like so much about bushcraft are the varied skills lists that you can develop. Ive never been a bird watcher but Ive become interested in identifying wildlife around me. One sound in particular has been driving me crazy trying to figure out the bird it belongs to. A Grey Shrike thrush. Its taken several weeks of going through youtube bird songs trying to pick the song.
Finally back on the mountain bike after months of trying to build up the knee on the gym bike. I actually get less stress to the tendon from the mountain bike being electric assist. 5kms yesterday and 8 today but I’m feeling it, 6am starts. Trying to keep off the heavy pain killers. Its going to be the only way to get fit again. Found a new track to explore through a small national park. Lots of wildlife, mostly snakes and kangaroos.
What a better way to start the day.
What they don’t tell you on youtube with Vanlife is the maintenance. Its great when everything works but a major headache when something breaks down. The breaker switch burnt out and its taken three days to find a replacement on ebay. No other auto suppliers or electrical stores had the same one to fit in the available space. Ive had to replace it in the meantime with a 30 amp fuse to get power to the batteries from the solar.

I just purchased the Pathfinder Stainless Swedish Mess Kit. Ive become interested in mess kit cooking after watching Blackie Thomas cooking series on youtube.However I didn’t realize that it was a three piece kit and had to order the alcohol burner separately. Looking forward to testing it out this weekend if the burner arrives today. Looks like a well made rugged piece of equipment. Not the lightest but will last forever.
Atleast some politicians are speaking up. Every politician that voted for this bill needs to be identified and their investments noted and boycotted by the general public.
A great Story !
The Gallantry knife by Survival University.
Blade Length: 16.25”
Blade Thickness: 0.1875”
Overall Length: 23.75″
Blade Material: 1075 High Carbon Steel
I was talking to Al at Survival Supplies Australia about ordering a condor Rude Boy machete and all 20 of them went in one day. Ill have to wait for the next shipment. While we were talking he mentioned the Gallantry knife. I had been looking for a Ginunting sword for several months and when I found out it had a micarta handle and a 16 inch blade I grabbed it. Only 6 in the country and Al had to order them directly from Survival University. The 16 inch blade suits my height better than the standard Filipino variants at 19 to 21 inches and I have a preference for micarta grips. I cant wait to try this out on some timber. Ive recently started back in martial arts. Aikido Jo staff however the knee doesn’t like stepping backward and I have to drag the Jo to support myself. Not quite ready to get back into Filipino martial arts but it is a goal to aim for.
