Camp hatchet/axe

[Perry Winkle]

You guys are awesome. I now know more about the pros and cons of axe-like implements than I ever thought there was to know!

I've got one of those MSR Dragonfly stoves already. I think I'll pick up a tiny folding saw and napalm to make a fire if I feel like it.

Thanks for the hatchet/saw advice, guys. I'll have to take a good look at the selection the next time I'm out.

Ah, my favorite camping stove! Eats nearly any fuel and barely uses any to bring a pot to a boil. The Dragonfly is a beast and I've considered moving away from it to a light, quiet folding stove that takes gas canisters, but I can't bring myself to do it.

Curious: Did your stove come with a red pump or green one?



...and we need a "camping" thread. I'm crazy about it.

Mine came with a red pump.

And yes, we need more camping chat.

Did you guys know that folks collect old camp stoves? I think our old stove is a Primus, but I'll have to look. It is pushing 20 years.

edit:Now I'm thinking Optimus stove

20 years is old for a camping stove? Shit, mine's just getting a good patina. c.1976 but I think the design is unchanged since back when snakes could walk.

Svea 123! ROCK.
