  1. Hi Rim Fire, and many thanks for the reply. Should anyone want to see as many photos as they want, please feel free to contact me via PM for my mobile/WhatApp. Andy.
  2. Long story guy's, but I am trying to raise some cash (Hopefully quickly) for a project that has come up, so am looking to sell a few items. First up is an iconic Wilkinson Sword Dartmoor survival knife, anyone of a certain vintage will remember these from the glossy ads in "Survival Aids" and "Swat" magazines of the 80s. Designed by Mr Ray Mears and is the "Newer" shape. I won't bore everyone to death with the details and spec as there's loads of info and reviews online about these. I myself have personally been looking for one of these for over 40 years (Yep, 40 years!) But being half Scottish I wasn't going to pay over £500. But after being to talks with the guy who brought the whole stock when Wilkinson Sword went under, I was offered this knife at a discounted rate due to the following. No box, no paperwork, no survival kit (Although the tube and compass are included) And the survival kit contents can be brought off the website should anyone want them. And there are a couple of small and light scratches on the blade, which were of course there when I got her straight from the sole supplier. Detailed photos and further info available on request, asking just £350, and that includes recorded postage out to the buyer. Next up is a MOD survival knife. Date of 1983 and crows foot stamped on the wooden handle, which has been sanded down to make it more user friendly, and then I resealed the grain. Someone had blued the blade at some point and has made a pretty good job of it, and I have replaced the leather original case with a MTP Molly one, I will include the original case if I can find it (If you have ever seen my garage/workshop you would understand!) I will sell this for £50 if (And only if) it is brought at the same time by the same buyer for the above item. This includes recorded postaged out to the buyer, further photos and info available on request. S&W Kukri, a really well thought out, designed and made knife, very useful for building hides or clearing the ground, has been lightly used but is still in great condition. Is still factory sharp and not resharpened. Asking £30, again only if sold to the buyer of the above, photos and info on request. I have 2 X Bushcraft knives for sale, both handmade by independent makers, classic bushcrafter designs, the Bear Blades one has a 4.5 inch full tang blade, which I sent away to be professionally sharpened, comes with a thick leather dangler style case. The other I can,t see a makers name, but there is a Stags head stamp on the blade and carry case, which is still razor sharp and not used or even carried in the field, basically I brought it on a bit of a whim, then put it away ever since and forgot about her! 3.5 inch full lenght tang blade and comes with a nice black leather case. I believe I paid £160 for the Bear and £150 for the Stag. Both in perfect condition, asking £200 for both, if brought by the same buyer and same time as the above. Both knives are hand made by small independent makers and are well worth the asking price. If all the above is picked up in person, I reduce the price from £630 to £600, and will include a few other odds and ends, Copy of a SF commando dagger, few small Opinels, a Mora, a Whitey and Co boot dagger etc FOC. I am in the Portsmouth area. Extra items are only offered FOC if picked up in person. Again, NOT looking to split, detailed photos of anything and everything on request to serious buyers. Many thanks for reading guys. Andy.
  3. I have for sale a DPM Para smock. Anyone of a certain vintage will remember these as a "Must" have item, much sort after and getting hard to find these days. A classic iconic design, really well thought out, designed and made. Super hard wearing and comfortable to wear for long periods.In 190cm chest and 112cm chest, which works out around XL/XXL. I'm 5'10'' and 16 stone and it fits me fine, with enough room to get a fleece or thin puffa jacket under if required. In almost as new condition, no marks, rips, tears or repairs. All buttons, poppers and zips in perfect condition. Comes as it should with woolen cuffs and rear flap.Pretty sure it's never been worn as it still has the new "Stiffness" of a brand new item, only selling as I already have another.Selling for what I paid for it, £50, and I'll include recorded postage out to the buyer for that price. Photos and further information available on request.Many thanks for reading guys.Andy.
  4. I'm 16 stone and normally wear a 44/46R or XL/XXL and all clothing listed above fits me fine. Just noticed that I missed out anything about sizes.Andy.
  5. I Have for sale the following items, will cut someone a really great deal if they buy more than one thing at the same time.Full length Drovers/Riders coat. Unsure of the make, but can of course check, not Barbour but definitely in the same league in terms of quality, one of the better one's I've owned. Heavy waxed cotton, come's with a detachable cape, lined with a tartan cotton liner, nicely aged and can be worn with or without a warmer jacket under for warmth. Will be sad to see this one go, but it just never gets used anymore. Paid £50, and it's worth that all day long. Colour tan, two internal pockets, one zippered one open, leg straps on the inside to secure the coat and in great condition.Northface 3 in 1 jacket. Colour blue, Goretex, has a thin puffa jacket which can be worn on its own, or zipped into the waterproof outer jacket. Paid about £160, as new condition. Asking £70.DPM COP vest, for anyone who severed in Northern Island back in the 80s or 90s will know what this is. Legendary piece of equipment, I practicably lived in mine for the 2.5 years I was over there. Quite hard to find them now, and is a fore runner to the tac vests of today. Unless I change my mind, and decide to actually keep hold of this, I can't see myself ever being able to replace it. Excellent for shooting or hunting, but also would make a brilliant "Bushcrafting" or "Preppers" survival vest. Paid £70, worth £100 (From what I can find the odd one on ebay). Asking £60.MOD Survival knife, not one of the modern day cheap copys, date stamped in the 80s (I can check the year if anyones bothered?) and has a "Crowsfoot" stamp on the blade as well. I've sanded the handles down to make them more user friendly and resealed the grain. Up graded the sheath to a MTP molle one, which are much better than the original leather ones. only selling as I have another, and these things just go on forever, so don't ever see me needing it. Asking £70.Further photos and info available on request, photos can be sent via text or WhatApp, all prices include recorded postage out to the buyer.Many thanks for reading guy's, all the very best.Andy.
  6. One and only price drop, now asking £30 and this includes recorded postage out to the buyer. Andy.
  7. Opps, my bad! Asking £70 and that includes recorded posted out to the buyer. Many thanks for pointing that out guy's. All the very best guy's. Andy.
  8. I have for sale a Musto waterproof shooting jacket, I believe that I paid 200 Euros for this about two years ago, and it's been hung up in my man cave ever since. It's in the classic shooting style of tweed jacket and even has a tweed print and could in fact pass for one at a short distance.However it is actually made out of Gortex, and is very well designed and made, seams are stitched really well so are no longer a weak point. A hood that folds flat and get's stored in the collar, draw cord and overall in perfect, brand new condition. No signs of wear, all zippers and poppers perfect etc...Has a lightweight mesh liner and is in XXL size, I normally wear a 44/46R jacket and it fits me fine, with enough room for a thin fleece or puffa jacket under if its nippy.Photos and further info available on request, just PM me your No. on here please.Many thanks for reading, all the very best guy's.Andy.
  9. I have for sale a Carhartt Coach lightweight waterproof jacket. Brought on a bit of a whim (Most unlike me!) last year, and it's never been worn since.In what I believe to be "Woodland" pattern, front closes with poppers only, so no zip to break or go wrong, draw cord and two front open hand pockets. has a comfortable liner and Carhartt printed logo. In XL size (I normally wear a 44/46R racket and this fits me fine, with the option of wearing a thin fleece under), in brand new, perfect condition. IE everything works as it should, no rips or tears, no signs of wear etc...Photos available on request via text/Whats App, or feel free to ask any further questions should anyone have any? Just PM me your no. on here please.Anyone who knows the Carhartt brand will known that they make really well thought out and made stuff, I'm asking for what I paid for it, £40 and that will include recorded postage out to the buyer.Many thanks for reading, all the very best guys.Andy.
  10. Now Sold. (I told you they were sort after!). All the best fellas. Andy.
