Last week I posted a lunch of Parma ham, sun-dried tomatoes and mozzarella ball hot bread cooked in my @pathfinders bush out on my @bushcraftessentials Bushbox XL and here's how I cooked it. #bushcraft #bushcraftessentials #bushbox #bushboxxl #pathfinders #bushpot #pathfinderbushpot #campcooking #campfire #campfirecooking #cookingoutdoors #outdoorcooking #wildcooking #bushcraftUK #bushcrafting #bushcrafter #bushcraftskills #wildernesskills #Bushcraftcooking #bushcraftlunch #bushcraftdinner #Woodsman #woodsmanskills #bushcraftkit #bushcraftgear #Survivalskills #wildernesssurvival #ukbushcraft #jacklore #jackloreknifes via Instagram http://ift.tt/2qaUijW

New coffee and areopress for the perfect brew in the woods. Amazing coffee from a local company @uecoffeeroasters roasted in a wood powered coffee roastery. What's your favourite coffee? If your looking for something new I can highly recommend Ue Coffee Roasters House roast. #bushcraft #bushcraftcoffee #bushcrafting bushcrafter #bushcraftuk #coffee #coffeetime #cotlswold #wintey #areopress #oxfordshire #oxford #brewtime #cookingoutdoors #campcoffee via Instagram http://ift.tt/2oZU4t9
Over the past month I have spent several afternoons with
Sandy from Jacklore Knives as he shows me the process of building one of his
Jacklore Classics bushcraft knives. It
has been a pleasure to spend time with Sandy at his workshop and film the build
of my knife.
This is the knife that Sandy has built and gifted to me.
The knife was customised by enlarging the handle length and
slightly reducing the blade length.
The German O1 tool steel was first roughly cut out on a
metal workers band saw before the finer shaping work was done on the knife
makers grinders.
Sandy uses several different wheels for the contours of the
handle. Watching Sandy using the grinders
I could not believe how quickly they can remove material when O1 tool steal was
in is softer pearlite state.
Once the handles had been drilled (for the pins and assist
bonding for the scales) the blade was coated with an anti scale compound to
stop loss of carbon to oxygen when the knife was in the kiln for the hardening
process.
The knife blade was placed in a knife maker’s kiln for heat
treating and quenching. The blade was
check for any warps but all was straight and true.
Liking a dark wood for a knife handle I choose some walnut
for the scales of the knife which had previously been stabilised by Sandy. These were prepared and keyed up for bonding
with the blade.
Before I left for the day the knife was placed in warming
oven for its first temper cycle, returning a week later Sandy had completed the
second and third tempering cycles.
The blade was then tested on a Rockwell hardness tester and
measured 58/58.5Hrc along it length.
Back to the grinders to place the bevel on the blade, this
was done at 28 degrees rather than Sandy’s favoured bevel angle of approx. 25
to 26 degrees.
The scales were keyed up ready to attached to the blade and
clamped in place to cure 24 hours.
But it was another week before I could return to the
workshop for the final stages of the build as Sandy shaped the handle adjusting
to best suit my hand.
I was an absolute pleasure to spend the time with Sandy and
a good friendship has grown though the building of this knife.
It's a stunning time of the year where everything seems to be coming back to life again. #bluebells #spring #woodland #woods #springtime #englishcountryside #britishcountryside #trees #tree #nature #wildflowers #sun #wildflower #bushcrsaft #bushcraftuk #bushcrafting #oxford #oxfordshire via Instagram http://ift.tt/2oM2aa9
via IFTTT In this video I spent time in with Sandy from Jacklore Knives aka The Wiltershire Man, in his workshop seeing the steps that it takes to build a bushcraft knife. Whilst at the workshop I filmed the making of the Jacklore Classic from O1 tool steel from start to finish. The knife itself is made from 3mm O1 tool steel, with a 28 degree scandi grind, heat treated and tripple tempted to 58 rockwell with walnut scales and the Jacklore Trinity mosaic pins.

I have now joined the Jacklore club with this Jacklore Classic. I have had the pleasure of joining Sandy in his workshop and seeing a bar of O1 tool steel be skillfully machined into this beautiful finished knife. The knife is made from 3mm O1 tool steel, heat treated and triple tempered to achieve a Rockwell of 58. With a 28 degree scandinavian grind and stabilised walnut scales custom fit to suit my hand, finished off with Sandy's Jacklore trinity pins and a brass lanyard tube. I would like to thank @jackloreknives for inviting me into his workshop to watch how his knifes are constructed. Sandy is a highly skilled knife maker with an amazing eye for detail and aims to produce the best knife possible. Now... Of to the woods. #jacklore #jackloreknife #bushcraftknife #bushcraftknifes #bushcraftknives #bushcraftknives #bushcraft #bushcraftuk #bushcrafter #bushcrafting #bushcraft🔪 #🔪 #bushcrafttools #wiltshireman #bushcraftkit #bushcraft #O1 #o1toolsteel #toolsteel via Instagram http://ift.tt/2ouiwW7
