Javilin is better

41:13 it looks like they meant for the user to put snap strap through zipper ring to hold in place

What’s a see shrew mwesh?

Thank you for the great detailed review! Your video gave me the much needed information and feel that helped me with my decision to get this bag! I'm really happy with it and It really is EDC perfection.

Nice review. I have several of there bags. All of them are well made. They’re all on the small side of what there liter capacity claims compared to every bag I’ve ever owned.

Great review thank you

How is the weight on the knife?

Great review. Thanks

I might do this to mine too, I hate the flipper. I actually think these knives look good as they wear!

Went the 511 store and examined thr Moab 8 and Moab 10. Th 10 is so large if I packed it full, it woukd be too much for a sling bag. Might as well just carry a backpack and spread the weight over both shoulders. I chose the 8. Deep CCW pocket that holds my full size 1911. Large enough to carry 2 or 3 books, cigar accoutrement box, water bottles, note pad and pens, eye glass cleaners, asthma rescue inhaler, etc. The 8 just slings on a shoukder very easily.

Great review, it's too bad they are discontinue 😢

I got the Entity 19 which has the AGR style side pockets with the expandable zippers. I wish they had put them on the larger models too... Anyway I like the clean look.

Completely off topic, but are you Scandinavian? Im trying to place your accent and settling on either Swedish or Norwegian.

Is Ferrocerium Lighter Flint Stone replaceable on this lighter?

Just ordered one of these. Thoughts after your 9 months of ownership? I’m getting the wood handle engraved.

Who pays over $200+ for a backpack??

I assume the wicks and flint are interchangeable with a Zippo as well? Or are these components proprietary? I saw that Exotac sells wick and flint, but I was curious as to the compatibility between these and Zippos. Thanks!

We get it… 3 mins talking about molle!!

Hey man great review of the pack. You've got some nice accompanying gear like the Maxpedition and Sealskinz stuff that I will definitely check into.

Those mico pouches, were can I get them in black?

I appreciate you mentioning the material. The slight shine on the black has me nervous but I’m the same as you with not wanting it to look to military inspired. But multicam black is gonna have to do for now

Man! Thanks for the idea of keeping a Dry Bag in there! I will definitely be getting 1 for mine! And you’re correct about that Conceal carry pocket! I have a tendency to over pack mine so it is harder to get the Firearm out but I always have a Firearm on my body anyway so the 1 in that pocket is just a back up!

Excellent Review! Thanks!

“Stabilizer -strap” is the name usually used for that 3rd strap option, fwiw & IIRC

How is the magnacut doing after owning this for a while…..Does the “lower” hrc make a big difference?

I think they are selling an idea without that much thought in it -- Pacsafe bags are designed for anti-theft and security... vertex bags have none of that functionality, slash proofing, etc. The last thing you want is for something in that bag to get stolen.

The drawbridge straps to the main compartment also tuck in to little pockets if you don't want to use them.

Thank you!! You’re the only person with a review who mentions that it does not stand up. Rules this one out for me as a gym bag

I wish they’d do a micro with the horizontal/vertical layout. A lot of my stuff is 5 or 6 centimetres and would just be bunched up in the middle.

By the way, In the case of comparing vertx commuter and Vanquest katara, which one would stand higher in the quality and durability?

That was a very Useful review which helped a lot for my decision of buying which sling pack 👍🏼✅️

Great 👌🏼

I prefer the 6 for edc, the 10 is overkill, but a great bag for other purposes for sure.

It's amazing how a company like Vertx, with all it's resources and experience, misses this detail. Nice work.

I found the webbing side handle really annoying. Would hamper fast unzipping so I cut mine off. I replaced it with a large carabiner which works much better. I see you removed the elastic silly string from the top pouch, I did the same. The main compartment takes a Mac Book Air.. just

Awesome video keep up the good work !!!!

The designs of the Moab 8 and 10 are so close to being substitutes for the discontinued Maxpedition Gila and Pecos, its really frustrating for me. If only they made models with all the compartments being empty and lined with velcro. I'd pay extra for that and for them to redesign the zipper cover to be able to be secured away from the zipper path with maybe velcro or bungee cord. And last remove the media pouch on the Moab 10 sling. Thanks for the detailed review, I had spent a good time looking at the Moab 8 in person and was curious about the 10 and your video was really insightful, especially the molle sticks bit. I will be getting a few of those for myself.

Could you give me a measure of its width? Its 22cm listed but i dont know if that's the top or the narrower tapered bottom

I’ve ordered 2 of these fatty organizer pouches and also one micro sized pouch. I have many Swiss Army knives and other things am needing these organizers for! 🙂

I wish they would update this backpack. It needs a water bottle holder built in and if they cut the weight by 15% it would be the perfect travel day pack.

I really like the 9l version . I will order the backpack this week , i will use it for fishing . Do you think it can hold 5-6 kg ? will buy for long term usage

Can the sling come off or be tucked in?

the hanger loop is for a hydration bladder.

After at least 2 yrs of using it as backpack i recently just converted to a sling!! Just see how its goes!😊

Great, intelligent review!! Kudos...

Keep it up sir

I love Vanquest, I am a Chilean youtuber and I make a lot of review of Vanquest. One of my top 10 brand in the EDC world. Great layout

👍🏽

Yeah my favorite bag!

Thanks for the review, what brand are the 2 'carabiners' (?) attached to the front of the bag?
