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.

Get yourself a Horace Kephart-lookalike knife new and CHEAP
I did some research on the Loewen knife I found on a flea market... and it turns out, that here is their new catalogue ;-). The knife is still in production and there are many other interesting takes. I especially like the sailor´s knife. Plus, they come in dead cheap. They ship overseas;-).
