Hi all,
As always with forums I scour the archives and threads for information........but, I cant find anything about where i might be able to buy what i believe is a 'Mavis Bag'. (I did learn the term from a thread here though).

I've seen people use such a thing which i think is really an overgrown chisel wrap but i dont know where to get them or even if you can from camp stores etc. can anyone help?

btw I'm in Adelaide but ebay etc is a wonderful thing.

cheers
michael.

I use a chefs knife roll for my utensils. $14 at most cookery places. It takes all my utensils inlcuding wooden spoons, egg flip, cooking kives, peelers and sharpeners etc, has a flap that folds over to protect and simply rolls up. You secure it with a couple of ties.

Infront Camping gear make a serious utensil role in canvas as well. Comes with an el cheapo set of picnic cutlery which you discard and then fill with your own stuff. Have a look here Infront Camping Gear.

Cheers Mick

We store our cutlery etx in a large school kids pencil case. Works well for us.

We use one of our kids old Decor lunchboxes. Good quality box and the lid is easy to get off.

Pencil bag works well for us, cheap, light and a bit flexible to fit in the kitchen box.

I still remember cutting my knee on this sharp thing sticking out of someone's picnic basket I was carrying for them - turned out to be their shapr knife poking through the gaps in the wicker!

I use a plastic box that my spanner set came in - it's just the right length and fairly flat (unlike most of the Decor/Tupperware containers long enough). My sister-in-law crafted up what looks like a large pencil case but it's made from thick leather.

Sorry, doesn't answer your specific question, but might suggest other suitable alternatives to what you are looking for.
