Beautifully Restored, Vintage, Leather & Canvas, Hand-Waxed Rucksack Discover the Timeless Elegance of Our Vintage Leather & Canvas Rucksack - Painstakingly Restored for Modern Adventures. Originally crafted for military and mountaineering excellence, each bag is a testament to outdoor history.
Hand-Waxed for Resilience: We carefully wax each bag by hand, which offers effective water-repellency, dirt resistance, and even antibacterial protection. The hand application creates a character-rich finish with subtly differing shades, highlighting the bespoke touch.
Embrace Eco-Friendly Excellence: Unlike most modern waterproofing methods, we take an eco-conscious approach. All-natural wax and no harmful chemicals. No fluorocarbon-based DWRs (Durable Water Repellents) which are bad for us and the environment.
Revitalised for You: These bags boast more than half a century of life, lovingly restored and awaiting the next part of their journey. Although they may bear a soft patina of their age, our meticulous processes guarantee they're better than ever, offering many years of faithful service and enjoyment to come. Where they journey to now, is up to you..
(Please expect very small abrasions, minor marks and/or well carried out repairs. Last picture being an example.)
This exceptional Bushcraft Knife was handmade (20 - 25 years ago) by Paul Baker, UK maker and fully refurbished and honed by Dan at World Outdoors. The handle was reshaped and the blade-grind/bevel altered for increased effectiveness for cutting wood and other demanding bushcraft tasks. I have accentuated the bottle-shape of the handle for a more comfortable grip in prolonged use.
The design is based on the classic Ray Mears- Woodlore specifications.
It is razor sharp and holds an edge extremely well.
The blade is crafted from O1 High-Carbon Tool-Steel with a 29 degree (approx) single bevelled edge, slightly convex for strength in splitting tasks.
The blade is a sturdy 4mm thick and is hardened to 58/59 Rockwell scale so it's tough enough to split logs and sharp enough to shave.
The handle is made from stabilised Birdseye Maple hardwood and has the most beautiful figuring & 'Birdseyes' of any maple we've seen in many examples of this iconic design.
The handmade leather sheath is double stitched and firmly holds the knife, well up over the handle.
NB: THIS ITEM IS STRICTLY ONLY AVAILABLE TO OVER 18'S ONLY.
