    Knife belt's

    After reading a recent thread another member @joelhenton mentioned that he carries a pair of pruning shears on his belt while hunting.Not something I had ever thought of.This got me thinking,what else do people carry on their belt that I might find unusual?
    I am fortunate to have deer on the back of the farm so don't have to carry a lot of gear with me so my belt is fairly simple.
    Also interested in what other shepherds are carting around daily aswell!

    I use a belt for all my single day hunting trips as I don't like having anything on my back. 1 pouch for a pikau to carry meat; 1 pouch for a waterproof jacket; 1 pouch for bits and pieces; 1 small pouch with an emergency kit including PLB; knife. It works and stops me carrying too much crap.

    Isn't it funny how your idea of "essential gear"changes over time.

    Keep it simple. Use this set up every day. Sometimes have a pouch on it with a first aid kit for on farm and day hunt.

    This instantly made me think of James May’s ‘belt of many things’ https://youtu.be/7JYzk_p5zQU
