Kaylyn McBrearty talkes about her PhD on white-tailed deer in Paradise, Queenstown, New Zealand. The purpose of this research is to endow the Game Animal Council (GAC) with knowledge on the Whakatipu white-tailed deer so that the herd may be designated as ‘of special interest’ and sustainably managed to improve herd health and performance for the continuation and improvement of New Zealand hunting resources. Information on herd dynamics will give the GAC a basic foundation to understanding the herd. However, in order for a management strategy to be designed which improves the herd, the GAC must know factors which currently or historically have limited it. As such, the proposed research aims to determine if the following factors are limiting on the health, performance or habitat range of the Whakatipu white-tailed deer herd and attempt to quantify the impact each has on herd success. This research is to be conducted for the fulfilment of a PhD by Kaylyn McBrearty at Lincoln University, Department of Ecology and Life sciences, advised by Landcare Research Ecologists. Research is currently conducted in collaboration with the Game Animal Council, the New Zealand Deer Stalkers Association, the Department of Conservation, Safari Club International and Wakatipu locals. https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/protectwhitetaildeernz https://www.facebook.com/wakatipuwhitetail/info?tab=page_info

This week Petr Kallus from CZ and Stephen talk about everthing CZ, frim the legend 452 to the history of CZ. History Ceska zbrojovka Uhersky Brod dates back to 1936, when it was established as a branch plant of Ceska zbrojovka located in town of Strakonice, based on a political decision of the National Defence Council. On 2 January 1937 production of a combined range of military and civilian arms commenced. The first products were aircraft machine guns, military pistols and smallbore rifles. During the Nazi occupation period the plant was forced to produce and repair military arms. From 1945 the plant returned to the combined range of military and civilian arms, with an equal share of time going into the production of each. In 1950 the Company became a separate state enterprise called “Presne strojirenstvi Uhersky Brod” (The Precision Machine Tooling Company) and was subsequently reorganized into a number of specialized directorates. In the 1970s and 1980s the Company was merged with the concern Agrozet Brno, where it engaged in it’s traditional production of arms while also taking over and launching the production of reduction gears and driveshaft casings for aircraft engines for Motorlet Praha and hydraulic powered and controlled attachments for tractors for Zetor Brno. https://www.czub.cz

Bryan Baker, Master Cutler started his knife making business from necessity in 1983. Made redundant by the untimely demise of an engineering firm, the 18 year old decided to turn a hobby into a practical business. The early SVORD Knives were forged individually and therefore expensive. Bryan Baker had to rethink his production methods and pricing to secure a share of the New Zealand sports market. He began using the 'stock removal' method and soon carved a niche in the sports market, with attractive, affordable, handmade outdoor knives. Designs improved styles and a steady demand saw SVORD Knives grow in credibility and popularity with the sporting public of New Zealand. A chance meeting with an elderly Czechoslovak knife maker gave Bryan Baker's business a real boost for this master craftsman was able to pass on to Baker many cutlers secrets and knife know-how. Especially important was the unique hardening and tempering process which gave Bryan Baker's knives a special edge of strength and durability. Baker immediately set about to build his own hardening and tempering plant using his newly acquired skills and knowledge. Today, every SVORD Knife is treated and tempered on the premises. The combination of quality Swedish cutlery steel and Baker's process for heat treating and tempering produces a truly superb blade. http://www.svord.com
