Recently I've been into Gawker's http://indefinitelywild.gizmodo.com/
The main writer, Wes Siler, seems to have a good head on his shoulders and is a decent writer also.

This article on "What big survival knives are for and how to use one" was the one that got me into his subforum.

He's also the person who convinced me to get my Esee 4 as my general-purpose outdoors knife.

One thing though, I can say after being a long time Gawker reader/commenter is that the crowd here on BF if much more mature and less quick to point out petty mistakes like grammar. Good job guys. :thumbup:

Other sites that have interested me:
Ben's Backwoods - http://bensbackwoods.blogspot.com/search/label/Crafts
Midwest Bushcraft - http://www.midwestbushcraft.blogspot.com/2012/02/modified-swedish-torch.html
 
Gee, I don't know....maybe The Great Outdoors Forums here?

Maybe its time for you to start exploring and reading more around here before your next thread. :thumbup:
 
Well.. yeah, I was kind of looking for a variety of websites; mostly blogs with just a few writers because they tend to make reading easier/more organized than searching through a forum.

So, one vote for The Great Outdoors Forums, noted mr. snarky :D

Edit: Thanks for the move mods

Maybe because of responses like this he's turned away from participating in the great outdoors forums. We also have to note that being blade forums most of the survival skills involve knives. There are much more bush craft related sites that are hosted by professional survivalist, and not mainly knife hobbyists. N7, for most of my literature I tend to stick mainly to printed material. I like the ability to take a book into the field, and utilize it as a reference. Plus what better environment to relax, read, and study undisturbed. There are a few good threads on here devoted to published books like Cody Lundins 98.6 degree book.
