  1. ok mate, thank you very much for the honest answer To many folk would of said anything to get the dog sold. I wish you all the luck with the sale.
  2. would tis dog be any good for ferreting?
  3. They sound cracking dogs mate. Good luck with the sale and wish you all the best.
  4. This is the reason I got it. Just to tide me over while I decided what money to spend on a good one. And I've still got it Honestly can't fault it. LOL I might end up exactly like you. IF I get a good few seasons out of it I will be more than happy tbh. I might even just replace it with the same kind if I really jell with it
  5. That looks like it would suit me perfect or at least until I decided if I want to spend the extra money on a bulldog spade.
  6. I can second this. It's the roughneck round point micro shovel. 27" and £12.99 from screwfix. I can't tell you how many times I was laughed at or lads took the piss when I took it out of the boot last season and so far this season. But I can't fault it. I'm a heavy handed f****r and I've got a knack of breaking cheap tools. But this has been spot on and it's had some use. Dug 4-5 foot with it at least 10 times and loads of 2-3 foot digs. Your like me then mate. LOL Cheers
  7. My problem is I don't take a motor with me so I need a spade that will ideally be suitable for most situations. Because to be honest it would be a pain carrying 3 or 4 different shovels aswell as the ferret box and net bag etc.
  8. I have just found a folding one on Ebay which is a spade/pick axe and a saw. It's £17.
  9. Thank you very much for that. I did see that there was some health problems when I was reading up on them but couldn't find much on them so I assumed they were bred out (To a certain point.) I did message "KEEPS" But sadly she isn't planning on breeding a litter anytime soon. :/ . I think I will just have to wait till spring and try do as much research as I can till then and hopefully a decent litter will be available. But once again thank you.
  10. carbon but they need taking care of more as they rust like cnuts midnight makes knives http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/261528-every-week-at-my-forge-and-workshopupdated/ Cheers mate. Are carbon sharper than stainless? I saw a thread about it but lost it...
  11. Now as for a cheap little knife for myself as my old bunny knife is past its best really so a few folk have recommended Opinel knives and have said the Opinel No8 is a good little knife but I have found it in Carbon steel and stainless. Which one am I better going for?
  12. I probably worded my last post wrong. I am more than happy to travel to the bottom of the country or even into Ireland if needs must for the right dog etc. After having read up on both breeds it would appear that I will just have to have a good think about how much earth work I plan on doing and make a decision from there. The good side is I am sure I want either a plummer or a parsons.
  13. I'm still tied between a leggy Russell and a plummer now. On the one hand a Russell seems cheaper and a lot easier to get hold of. (a women breeds them not 30minutes away from me) But the plummer is a very attractive dog and from what people have said would suit my needs better. :hmmm
  14. I think I like the idea of a good spade and a pair of secateurs.
  15. Good on you mate for being straight and saying it has started yapping. Wish there was more dog men like you!
  16. Stunning dog mate. I would love to own him but he wouldn't suit my needs. Good luck with him.
  17. Does midnight make knifes or just has a good bit of knowledge about them? cheers
