About

Woodlore, School of Wilderness Buchcraft was founded in 1983, by the British Bushcraft and survival expert Ray Mears. Woodlore began as a relatively unknown company, offering a small selection of courses on bushcraft techniques. With Ray's ambition and perserverance, Woodlore has since grown into a world-renowned and highly respected school, offering in-depth courses on a wide range of bushcraft and survival subjects. In addition to training, Woodlore now also provides some of the finest outdoors equipment from around the world, carefully selected on the basis of our extensive experience.

    One thing that I’ve always wished Woodlore would offer is a first aid kit tailored for the wilderness. Just a base kit would do in a well designed outdoor friendly case, so that we can add items and tailor it more specifically to our needs. There is only one company offering FAKs aimed specifically at the outdoor market and is not bushcraft oriented.
