Hello All, last interview and a special one for me.

Folks let me introduce you to the 'Mighty' John Boe who runs Wildway Bushcraft.

John, like myself, is an Ex RAF man and we've shared many of the same troubles. 🤜🤛🐺

John welcomed me warmly and humbley, despite being extremely busy at the Bushcraft Show, massively projecting the Wildway ethos of Bushcraft Community.

From what I saw, both him and his team are very open, accessable and share life hardships with patience, stoicism and as you'll see in the video.. a great sense of humour.

I felt honoured that Joe Price took the time to introduce us and that John took the time out of his day to chat on Camera.

John if you ever need volounteers for Wildway mate, count me in 💯🇬🇧

What do you look for when buying a knife for military or outdoor use? Price over quality? Quality over price? Great reviews? Only knives made from hypersonic WTF69 steel? Must be endorsed by Rambo?

Here’s our quick knife-buying guide.

1. The mission

Pick a knife best suited for your primary needs. Small and occasional: folder. Sturdy, ergonomic, and regular: a full-tang fixed blade. Impressing your friends: pricey tacticool blades you don’t dare to use.

2. Blade material

Carbon steel is easy to sharpen but needs more maintenance. Stainless steel is slower to sharpen but otherwise needs little maintenance. In wet surroundings, stainless is better; anywhere else, it depends on your preference. You can go much deeper into blade steels, but that would require a longer guide.

3. Handle material

Natural materials look cool and work very well in most places. In very crappy conditions, synthetic makes your life easier.

4. Sheath

Traditional leather looks great and handles quiet stealth operations well. Modern Kydex/Boltaron sheaths handle mud, water, and MOLLE/PALS much better.

5. Price vs. quality

If you have a restricted budget, find the best knife for your needs in that range. There are great knives that don’t cost a fortune, and after a certain point, the knife doesn’t get any better, just prettier. Nevertheless, 5 bucks gets you a 5-buck blade and a desire to buy something better.

6. Reviews

Knife review videos can be a huge help but they can also push you pure marketing crap. Look for honest field tests from pros who use the knife for similar stuff as you. Often, criticism is more important than praise.
