TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Nice little holster / pouch for Opinel knife or 18650 cell

I just thought I'd share with you a nice little holster I found suitable for belt carrying carrying a 18650 cell or an Opinel no.8 Outdoor Knife (http://www.opinel.com/uk/tradition/multi-fonctions).

I sometimes use a 18650 based flashlight such as a ZebraLight SC600W in the bush hence the need for a spare cell (http://zebralight.com/SC600w-XM-L-18650 ... _p_74.html is the new version of the one I have).

It is SKU 29354 from Deal Extreme http://dx.com/s/29354 and for US$1.49 DELIVERED to Australia, you really can't go wrong.

No doubt it would be suitable for other things but this is all I have tried so far.

For a $1.49 (shipped) the build quality and usefulness is not bad at all.

Just ought an opinel folder in a town in the Pyrenees. I've been using it for cheese, which seems overkill since it looks like it'd dismember a wild boar... Not sure what number it is but some in the shop looked like small folding swords

I see now. Looked at the handle, it's a number 12.
