PRIMITIVE
WARES
|
|
|
We will try and provide accurate
descriptions as well as good assessments of each item reviewed. If the
article to be reviewed isn't of better or best quality we
will not bother you with reporting on lower level equipage. |
|
We would like
to address the "primitive
wares" (hint - title) that one needs or would like to have with
the camp equipage or personal gear carried. Several of us have gone the gamut
of such items over the years and I personally have had as much or more
than most.
