Apologies to Mr. Hochstein, who mailed me some months ago to inform me about his new site.As it goes, I had my mind on many other things and simply forgot to feature him, which I promised. So here it is, and did I enjoy it? BOY, did I!:-)

Leather work he also makes in quite a superb quality:
And here´s a pic of a great folding knife many would kill for:
I hope to meet him and his father on the Jagd und Hund Expo, which will take place in Dortmund in February!
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.
