We are just starting out with this so accounts will be Pro-forma and there will be a minimum order amount on each initial order and subsequent orders.

VAT
Owing to compulsory VAT registration we have had to re-structure our prices. We apologise for this but it is out of our hands. We’ve managed to absorb the tax into a majority of our product prices but inevitably some have gone up.

New Bison Bushcraft Own Products

Bison Moleskin Trousers (See Here)
The latest offering in our expanding range of clothing is our moleskin trousers. Moleskin cotton fabric has been a long standing material for outdoorsman’s trousers owing to it’s toughness and comfort.
We’ve made our trousers with this fabric but cut them in a more useful combat style. There is a map style pocket on the left thigh, a combination knife and mobile phone pocket on the right side, two rear pockets and two hand warmer pockets. All the pockets that have flap closures have NATO slotted button closure as does the waist closure. There are belts loops around the waist. The knees have pockets made of ballistic nylon (anti slash material) to stop undue wear and these can take soft pads (available separately). There is an elastic drawcord at the hem with a cord lock should you wish to tighten the trousers against your boots. As per our usual policy of supporting our economy and using natural fibres where possible, these trousers are made here in The UK from locally sourced materials.

Bison Bush Shirt (See Here)
The Bush Shirt is made from the finest Islay Tweed and lined with luxurious cotton moleskin. It features a hood (moleskin lined), two breast pockets, a hand warmer pocket (moleskin lined), a drawstring hem, and lace up neck placket with an antler button/tab top fastening.
We’ve found this to be a perfect top to use as an outer layer/coat or as a jumper in colder weather with its over head/pullover design. The hood adds to the warmth where needed preventing heat loss through the top of your head. The raglan sleeve cut makes for a comfortable and flexible shape to the Bush Shirt and the draw cord hem helps to keep out draughts.
The Lowland tweed has great weather turning attributes and the colours woven into the pattern give you a subdued natural appearance allowing you to blend into your natural surroundings without the use of military style camouflage. This truly is a warm, flexible and comfortable wilderness jacket.

Camp Knife (See Here)
This is a fairly large knife designed for heavy work. The original inspiration comes from some large knives I’ve collected over the years that originate in The Philippines. The dimensions of this knife are similar to knives locally purchased by US Navy pilots who did their survival training in The Philippines prior to their deployment to The Vietnam war.
My version of this knife has a blade of 8 inches and an overall length of 13 ¼ inches. Hardness is 59hrc. All the usual options are available for this knife, however I do recommend 01 tool steel as a blade steel of choice for this one.

Cast Iron Potjies (Pronounced poykie) (here)
These cast iron pots are an essential part of any field kitchen. The cast iron construction allows them to retain an even heat over their surface area. They are suitable for use over any heat source from fire to stove. Potjies can be used as a standard pot an oven or a frying pan. The appropriate weights and volumes are shown where relevant.
