Those are the adventures of Mr. Fimbulmyrk, in bushcraft and blacksmithing, mountainbiking and hiking, reenactment, writing, singing, dancing, stargazing and having a piece of cake and a coffee. Pray have a seat and look around you, but be warned - the forest´s twilight is ferocious at times.

Sheath for the new Hadseax
So, I liked the new knife quite a lot and thought I´d practice my lousy leatherworking skills a bit, and this is what came out. Got carried away with the work a bit, so no photos in progress, but I promise in the future... The sheath also holds a Karesuando firesteel which throws sparks like mad-got it from Per Laks and I love it!!!
