Thanks for saying that mate. It's been hard to get the time to go out and get some filming done. But I'm glad this film found it's target audience. Hope for some good weather in the new year and maybe time for a spot of fishing too.

It seems to be a great all-round bushcraft knife. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.

I know the feeling with the guard, but at least it's quite grippy. I have a Helle with a round wooden handle and it just feels one wrong move and your going to have a accident.

@@TheSussexOutdoorsman Precisely. And it doesn't have to be a giant guard either, even the one on the Mora Clipper (my favorite Mora) is sufficient.

Thanks for watching. Some of the European forest's are epic.

@@clivedunning4317 i did like the look of the kansbol, i opted for the garberg just for the heavy-duty aspect. Thanks for watching.

Thanks Esmond. I look forward to getting back on the trail. Also the Garberg dose seam a really good heavy duty knife to do loads of camp tasks. Thanks for watching.

I agree it would be a bit big for finer carving and other small tasks. But i will try making a pot hanger or something to give it a go. Thanks for watching, and taking time to comment.

Wow that's a deal. The Robust is one of my favorite knives, but the Garberg is a big upgrade.

@@TheSussexOutdoorsman definitely 😁👍🏻 I didn't get one straight away to be honest because I wasn't convinced probably because of the price, I picked up a stainless steel one for £37 plus delivery in a sale a couple of years ago, but after using it I wouldn't have been disappointed if I'd paid full price, especially now they have come down in price a lot.

I was mislead on thinking the Robust was full tang, but it's sure strong enough to do some buttoning. I reallyeally like the feel of the Garberg, so it's a great upgrade.

It sure seems a great one. Look forward to putting it to work.

@@philliphanwell9057 i may have been misinformed. Seeing some x-rays they are a little short of the end. Still a good and sturdy knife though.

@@quinntheeskimooutdoors6234 thanks for watching

@@leemichel8199 that's an interesting way to make it. Only thing would be you don't have that wood base and then you need to collect wood to burn instead of using the bits you cut out. I give try some time. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.

@@jbradshaw4236 Mora sure do make some of the best knives on the market. As for the fishing, i kind of took a back seat over the last few months. Had a good go back in the summer with some nice results. Hope to get the rods out again soon.

Mora Garburg is one of the best survival knives out their and for its price range, you made a good 👍 choice.

Ive heard vinegar is good for cleaning and works well at protecting the metal, I may try the paper towel soaking tip. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.

Their sure a great lamp. I know the feeling when they don't light first time and go up in flames. Never known one to be dangerous though. Thanks for watching, and taking time to comment.

Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching and hope it was helpful.

@@fishingvanlife thank you. I enjoy the simple side of course fishing. Hopefully be out again soon.

@@jamesjames77777 if you're in the uk. I would start off small. Go to a local woods you know well and spend some time outdoors. Don't buy or bring loads of gear, just enjoy your time in the woods. Then as time goes on you may want to invest in some tools and find a more secluded spot to try some outdoor cooking or wild camping if you're into that sort of thing.

@ really appreciate the response, thank you! I spent my youth in the woods, we never went to pubs, we just stayed around Surrey and built fires and made rudimentary shelters, a little bit in Scotland too. Always incredibly respectful and always left where we stayed as we found it. This was 20 years ago and I’m now 40 and TH-cam exists : ) I work in London in a manic job and I adore the wilderness and being alone. Videos like yours are like therapy and the idea of working responsibly with the land makes my brain feel better. But my older head is worried now because rules and regulations have become stringent and I want to do things right. Thanks for your advice though, I’ll start like that in the areas we used to go to. All the best

@@TonyM540 thanks for the guide. Luckily i don't have to take the glass out to often. But I'll try to get better at it using that method. Thanks for watching.

Most of our lamps are gas now. But I'm with you and keeping the Tilleys going is important so their not forgotten.

I go fishing for weeks on end sometimes in the coldest holes in Britain and my Tilley is the only one that works for light and heat nothing at all rivals it keeps me warm all day and night. Less industrial processes used to make it much less so even though gas burns cleaner the carbon footprint using paraffin is almost half as much. Never use modern things they are cr@p

Nice, thanks for the heads up. I'll keep that in mind.

Oh yes, the trail will be continued. Hope to get out again soon.

@@andyparton6680 sometimes. If it's to high it'll flicker a bit.

Glad you found it helpful. Definitely my favorite lamps to use.

Ah OK, it's screwed in, was just a bit tight. Thought I saw yours just lifted out.

Try getting some oil onto the thread somehow and let it work it's way in. Then try with a some pliers or some light grips. Hope you can get it out okay.

@@TheSussexOutdoorsman Well it lights but with a massive sooty, yellow flame. The adjustments needed on the tap seem very small, almost closed to get the blue flame. The little pressure indicator piston is above flush so maybe too much pressure/pumping. Without paraffin there was a steady, gently stream of air coming out the top of the vaporizer. I'm uncertain what's inside the vaporiser, if the top bit comes off, or if the burner head is dismantable.

Wow you really had a tough time. I know it's a old saying but ' they don't make things like they used to.' we need to keep our old tech in working order as it's built to last and not just cheap and disposable. So glad your lamp helped you in a time of need. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.

@@TheSussexOutdoorsman Truthfully, I got off very very lucky. Sure, I lost all the food in the fridge and freezer, but that's small potatoes to others in town who had trees down all over the place, including right through the middle of their houses. The folks in North Carolina and such places really got wrecked and need whatever aid they can get. One big lesson here is that everyone got complacent. We learned to take the easy way out because there was always a store just a few minutes away. Nobody grows their own food, cans and pickles for the winter, etc. A lot of people have propane grills, sure, but that requires you to have a supply of propane close by.... which we learned won't always be the case. I guess the main takeaway from it all is that you need to be aware that a winter storm could knock out the power for more than just a day or two, and to plan for that. Food, water, and illumination for at least a week, per person, and maybe even longer.

Hope you have a good time restoring your lamp. I'll have to check mine for numbers and let you know. Thanks for watching.

@@TheSussexOutdoorsman 👍

I suppose it does, I'd not thought of it that way.

@@MichaelMcNulty thanks for the comment. Hope you got the information you where looking for?

Thank you for watching and the sub. Hope to be out again soon.

@@nigelgunn_W8IFF very true. Thanks for pointing that out.

@@GodAtum got a life. But at least i can get the bus back there to start part 3.

@@GodAtum unsure yet. But I'll get a date in the diary soon.

@@GodAtum i did see that on the map. Maybe a midnight knees up.

@@hikesome having been to Thailand i cant really draw the same comparisons. But it sure is a nice trail. Thanks for watching.

@@motuknight5569 I'll have to check that out next time i do some work on the lamp. Thanks for the tip.

@@Teddybear.44 thanks mate. Had it filmed at the beginning of the month, but couldn't find the time to edit it.

@@supersonic-simon Keep a safe distance if you can Because you're never safe around Whittlin Man!

Is it a metal Polish? I think I've seen it before.

@@ColinPickney yeah seams so. Next time I'll try a bit deeper for some Roach.

Glad you're enjoying your lamp. Thanks for watching.

@@beasbadges8827 your right. My my cover is blown. i have absolutely no idea what I'm doing, but sometimes i catch fish.

@@TheSussexOutdoorsman so why do you think anyone would want an instruction video on fishing when your clueless, why not do a video on something you have knowledge about. I'm here as you mentioned the Rother which is my fav river.

@@beasbadges8827have a day off

I'd never heard of of the term 'cold blast' now I've looked it up it makes the lamp even more amazing.

@@234cheech thank you. Glad you enjoyed.

@@jorkins5 i use one from my local garden center. They stock it for greenhouse heaters.
