I bought a very nice Soc blade a couple of days ago. Just awaiting my knife sharpener, game bag and decoys to arrive. I've also ordered a DeerHunter Recon jacket with the Optifade camouflage.

Hey guys! I've recently started small game hunting with a .22 calibre rifle whilst I await my gun certificate approval. I'm currently building my hunting equipment and attire.
