Because the consumerist madness that is the knife industry, biz and world consists solely about how good can a knife split wood like a chisel.

>>967998
You split little logs like that down to get at the dry wood inside them, then feather it so you can start your fire. Thats the only time you need to do that. Once the fire is going, youre good. Memesters around here would rather just play make believe about knife autism than admit there is a place for processing firewood with a knife.

Cant stress how amazing this album is if you like the audio-aspect of the outdoors, along with Eno's Apollo album.

Most ambient projects dont really grasp an organic theme like this does.

Post more music- great to listen to as you drive to your out destination.

Yes it is a meme.

No, except being used differently to fight, and being very certainly inferior to regular knives for that matter, it can't do anything.

Good luck field dressing an animal or preparing a meal with that.

>Equestrian thread cause why not

I'm thinking about starting jumping lessons in 2 weeks. Is a protective vest all that necessary? I'm only really interested in a budget one, under $100. Perhaps a chinese knock off?

I'm 188lbs at 6ft and have a fairly athletic build, So far, I've yet to fall off a horse but when I do, I don't think i'd sustain the same type of blow as your average rider (A daintly 5ft 6in, 130lbs female)

It's a risk you'd have to take, anon. If it means anything to you a 6' 165 lb friend of mine just got bucked off and broke his arm/a few ribs and dislocated his shoulder.

Ever broken ribs before?
That's reason alone to wear one. I'll tell you it fucking sucks, and it's not something I want to do ever again.

If you're jumping, especially just starting out, i'd suggest it. Trail riding I wouldn't bother.

Does the barn/whatever have gear you can borrow? See if anyone else has one they'll let you try?

Never rode without one in the rodeo arena. Vest is likely what saved my life when I got stepped on.
>>
>>831453
>Ever broken ribs before?
Nope, When i played rugby, we had a man on our team that played a match only 3 weeks after he broke one or two ribs. They were really tender but he managed to play two matches like that until they were fully healed. I fractured one of my vertebraes during that season as well and I couldn't do anything physical for 2 weeks, and another 2 before full contact.

My current barn has a policy set at 2'6", It's not really setup for this sort of thing but my instructor told me they can provide basic hunter/jumper lessons at the same rate as my ordinary english lessons (4 for $150, 1on1 private hour long)

I figure that i'll just stick around there until i've maxed out at what I can learn, then off to another barn.

I've decided to get a vest, I'll most likely get a cheap $50 chinese knock off to hold me over for a few months until I progress and i'll have more money for the real deal down the line.

Buying UK woodland.

Does anyone here own any woodlands? Are you allowed to use them for business ventures and such? Do I need permission to build a hut/dwelling?

I've just inherited a chunk of money and I'd like my own piece of woodland but as its the UK I'm worried about being buried in red tape.

>what is Google

Good luck building on woodland. You've got green belt regulations, conservation areas, sites of significant interest, etc etc etc. Never mind if you have native species the habitat directive is a cunt.

Speak to your local planning authority they'll tell you what restrictions you have.

Generally speaking if you buy woodland it has to stay as woodland. That means no houses.

Sustainable development may win you brownie points as there's usually a presumption in favour of sustainable dev in development plans.

Need to give more details.

>>974789
I have been doing my own research but I wanted to see if anyone already has woodlands and their thoughts on the process.

I know building a house would be a no no/huge ball ache, but what about a hut/cabin?

I was thinking about maybe turning it into a "wild camp" site if it's worth it and use the funds it makes to put back into the site/buy more land. I know it's all going to be a long process as I'm waiting for land that's close to me.
>>
>>974795
You've have an easier time with a Cabin/Hut than a House.

The only issue is you're not going to get alot of Woodland in the UK.

I walk maybe 40miles a week for my work, in steel capped boots.
The factory insoles soon get flat and HARD, and my feet feel like shit.
I've tried cutting some out of Yoga mats, anf they are blissful for about a week, by which time they have gone flat.

Can anyone recommend any comfy,long lasting insoles or foam I can cut for inserts/insoles?

Maybe try something that offers support, like superfeet? Foam insoles give cushion, but they don't help keep your arches from stretching out, causing plantar fasciitis and other foot pain.

Is it honestly possible to have a sound uninterrupted sleep while camping? Basically every time I go /out/ I wake up 2-3 times a night- be it the ground, the cold, or animals waking me. I carry a thermal sleeping bag and an air-mat, so don't tell me I'm skimping with the wrong gear
