  1. use a crooked horn,suits my needs but maybe not the best available,but still handy.only short fall ,if you have the harness adjusted to make easy lifting to the eye the binos swing out a bit if you lean over,say looking at tracks ect,but not a big problem.more tension on the sraps make it a difficult hold to the eye if your glassing for a while. I should have got the bino cover as well,little sticks[very little ] small leaves and dirt fall on the lense if you are sneaking thick stuff and don't have lense covers on.the cover is like a shower cap and fits over the whole bino keeping dirt leaves and water off the lense's,must get one one day.cheers
  2. looks simple but effective. impressed

    Peed Right Off

    no good optic,bit hard when you make and deliver in good faith ,only to be let down by some one back down the line. where these the group of matching knives you posted a while back ?,they certainly looked the goods then. nothing like home grown timber[or any thing for that matter] chin up optic ,not your fault
  4. with ozrider here,we bought a southern cross trecker deluxe[6 person canvas] in 2000 have used it a lot. 11 days straight on the move ,Birdsville ect,'13 22 days straight on the move again to the tip and back.lots of wet trips at a week at a time to howitt high plains and the gatta with no problems. has been a terrific tent to use,and takes very little time to put up,cost us $ 1100.00 at the time added an awning @$400.00 a bit later,definitley worth the money and top quality.only down side ,it weghts 30 kg and is a little heavy to put up onto the cruiser rack,but you manage when you have too.sleeps 6 adults well so a few extra smaller ones would probablay fit in ok.in the bigger picture buy the best you can manage..as oz said after use maintenance is critical to good long service, we to air ours out for week,even if it didn't get wet just to be sure.[and no ,we don't have shares in sth cross].hope this helps ,cheers,
  5. very nice job that.i'm blown away with the talents of members here.cheers
  6. the same as duncs,I've seem something similar but with a "t "handle and slightly larger blade.imho would make for a natural sweep with blade while removing skin.cheers
  7. try spraying [and let dry] with eucyalyptas oil[sh.t spelling I know] ,have heard this works, but not tried it myself.cheers

    Skinning Knife

    nice looking knives psk,interesting shape,looks like they would "flow "well.do they have much weight in them? how does the edge stand up on tougher/larger skins like sambar ? most of my knives make think...I have 3 to4 inchesof blade but mainly use only the first 1 to 1 1/2 inches and have noticed a trend in more compact styles over the last few years.cheers

    at that price very affordable,certainly look good enough to market, to me, from the pics.just curious where they would sit amongst commercial available knives price wise,people seem to not mind paying preminum prices for quality items that work well.cheers

    Fatboy

    very nice Geoff,like the shape and size for skinning,taking a guess that's about a 60/ 75mm blade.if a bloke was to want one the same what sort of money are we looking at? cheers

    My Knife

    very,very nice.
  14. gday optic ,you must have got a dud.we've got a bit of ridgeline gear and its all ok.for the price it's doing a good job.sadly across the board things are no longer made like they used to be,and "warrantys"are definitely not worth the paper the're printed on with some retailer/manufacturers.a few years ago eldest son bought a rifle/scope and the scope would not hold zero after a short time.went back and bought a new scope and the bloke asked what was wrong with original scope and said pretty quick..life time warranty ,bring it back...scope came back fixed with a new reticle..no cost and all good the.the brand is pride and fowler[i know its not a well known brand]but the warranty was good.cheers
  15. no idea dom,there are that many on the market now its hard to keep up with the new ones.
