Between 60 & 70% of US tungsten consumption is used in the manufacture of new carbide. Last year, tungsten recovered from scrap accounted for 31% of tungsten consumption by US processors and end users. The rest was imported; 43% of the import was from China. China has approximately 65% of the worlds known tungsten reserves and last year produced 86% of the newly mined tungsten, world wide. China is also the worlds largest tungsten consumer. The Chinese Government, in order to conserve its resources and meet its increasing domestic demand, has limited tungsten production and exports while increasing tungsten imports. These policies are expected to continue.

I stopped in and talked with Russell the owner of Desert Surplus. He is a good guy, knows a lot about the surplus business and has done a great job of stocking his store with of the stuff you like to see in a surplus store. Like all good surplus stores the inventory is always changing so stop in often.

The always useful 550 cord (parachute cord) has many uses and will continue to have more.

The Camelback H.A.W.G. is a good size pack for hiking and bicycling. The pack is not too large, but it is roomy enough to hold essential gear. In addition it has a pocket for an MP3 player at the top of the bag. This pack holds 100 ounces of water (3 liters) so it is a good choice for hot climates where a lot of water is needed

This is another one hand webbing cutter from Benchmade. The 7 Hook is designed to cut safely through jackets, tubular webbing, leather boots, Kevlar, seat-belts, and para-cords among other materials. It's shape and design let the user pull to cut and the blade is protected so only the intended items are cut. This compact webbing cutter has a fitted sheath designed to hold the 7 Hook securely while still offering quick access to the knife. A well made and easy to use tool

This is a Samsung r500 cell phone on the Cricket service. It goes out of signal in large buildings and the owners home.. when it does work it works well and combined with crickets unlimited plans it offers a lot of useful features (when it works) the phone is solid and seems to be well built. The red panels can be replaced with another color, but the owner prefers the standard red

Egyptian Maadi AK47 Bayonets are rare and a cool item for a AK47 bayonet collection. They are a type 2 version in a brown color that is unique. They are strong and built well. They are hard to find, in my opinion as a collector it's just under the KM87 as far as difficulty finding and in cost.
