Samovar Tea Kettle Review










See our latest review of the Samovar Tea Kettle here

When working in the outdoors especially at this time of year it is important to keep hydrated and warm. A good cuppa can make all the difference.  Not only does a hot drink warm you from the inside and gives you a morale boost, making a drink forces you to take a longer break.

Forest Knights always like to work smarter not harder.


Merry Christmas 2016

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all of our customers and friends it has been a really busy year for us at Forest Knights.  We have had the pleasure of meeting loads of new customers and making lots of new friends.

This year we have tried to get out and about and  attend a few more events like the Surrey Hills Wood Fair. its great to meet new folk and demonstrate Bushcraft skills to a different audience and enthuse people about the great outdoors showing them that it is possible to be comfortable with little equipment.

As usual we have had a full course program of Bow Making Courses.  There is nothing better for the team than watching a client loose their first arrow from a bow they have hand crafted themselves.





A couple of photos from a course we ran in the New forest.

Its always nice to be asked by your peers to teach a skill that you have been honing for the last 15 or more years.  Like all bushcraft skills we never stop learning and hopefully never will.  every student is different and every piece of wood presents its only challenges.

We have a full program of Bow Making Courses available here. 

Forest Knights continues to focus on small group and bespoke courses. When we founded Forest Knights we were determined to be a totally customer focused organisation.  The clients expectations must be exceeded and I like to think that 2016 has shown that we have maintained that ideal.

The maximum group size for our Bow Making Courses booked through us will never exceed 5 people.  The usual maximum being 4 unless its a group booking.  

We have run courses for higher numbers for other Bushcraft organisations but we feel strongly that this diminished the experience for the client.  

Our maximum number of students on our Bushcraft courses remains between 8-10 people.  

We pride ourselves on the quality of our catering and despite an increase in the costs of food etc er have maintained quality and quantity. We source out foods from local suppliers where possible with animal welfare being a major factor.

You will not leave one of our courses hungry.  

Our new Pizza Oven we installed at Amberley.







Don't worry we cater for all dietary requirements if we are informed in advance of the course commencing.
