Back tracking 40.000 years

So, there is space after all. Seem like it's a problem connected with my phone/posting/file format or some crap like that.. Anyways, I'll try to post project stuff here, and trips on the new blog. Why? Internet sucks and Instagram is death.. This is a safe place from the algoritm.. 


Been beating nettles for a while, playing around with making cord and string. 
So project nr one is catching a fish with paleo gear.. 

So far i have made about 6m of fishing line. 10 would be fine.. 

Went to look for a deer nose bone to use as a hook, and found a nose bone to use as a hook! Slim chance but good odds when you trawl the countys dump site for road kill, regulated hunts etc. 


 
After some grinding, i cheated and used a knife to rough cut it but the shaping was done with stones/and the cement floor.. The barb bit's tip is a bit short but i think that it might work as a toggle hook, so i made the ends sharp to.. 


Nikko approves.

ULU

Found a deer hide.. 

So i made a Ulu knife.. 


Crappy old Bowie type knife 

donor metal.. 



Bit of a old axe handle/scrap bits


And done.. And again, it's made to perform a task, scrape hide.. No need for perfection

Knife work 2

 Gave the handle some oil based stain. 

There are file marks and burrs on the handle, i left those.. Sort of a forced patina i you like or just my "perfection is pointless" style.. It's a tool, let it be a tool.. 



Found a little brass nubbin'. 

Added it just for looks. 





Knife work 1

New handle for a oldish puukko. 
I reused a old hammer handle as material, it is ash or possibly oak? It smelled oaky. Anyways



The handle shape is similar to the yakut handle i made, non exakt angles and flats.. 



.. Wich is inpired by the Tapio Wirkkala  puukko. I really love that handle design..

Stove test

Various stuff..

The ammo stove, another one of those projects put one the back burner getting done.. Testing/burning of paint out in the woods.. Worked great.!

The wood frame pack has a canvas bag and carries stuff ok.. Might suffer under plus 10 kg though.. 

New knife day. Eräpuu leuku.. I think this will be a more usefull tool than my wetterlings axe.. 






 

Nr 1


First overnighter. Rainy night, clear skies next morning
