Video

Ok, this video is several years old. I want to know if it held up to your expectations because I think the multi use mods are brilliant. I have cheap gear, which has worked for me, but it's time to upgrade. I just havent heard much about SLD online. What few reviews I do find are dated, but extremely supportive of this small cotrage vendor. I read his bio, and it appeals to me. If Im going to drop a serious chunk of money, I would want it to be with somebody like this. I wonder given how old this is if SLD would duplicate the mods with your system. Thanks for the in depth review. Im definitely interested in this and the saddlebags.

I like it. 5 year old video and this is the first time seeing this. I'm going to order a pair.

I have been thinking about a haven tent. I don’t think XL will be durable enough. I think the Safari version and I am going to use my 10x10 D&D hammock tarp a lot more a therm a rest sleeping pad. Also heard that haven sleeping pads leaking. A bunch of more upgrades I am not using haven hardware either I am also going to use Dutchwear hardware and straps. I live in Florida so I will be weather proofing before I even use the hammock. Thanks for your information and good idea about havens upgrade you have done.

Mine arrived last week and was dull as a butter knife!! I put it on a precision sharpener, and now it has a wicked edge. Very odd from White River!

Just my opinion but the reflectix should go under the pad

I have the xl and the it's nice I like it but the only problem is the pad that came with it does not stay inflated properly and the tarp is not water proof,,,it gets a lot of condensation on the inside and underneath the tarp,,,it definitely needs a better pad and better tarp

That's a very dangerous set-up because you can't see an attacker.

Great review. I bought my Chameleon when Dutch had his kickstarter on them. I use a Hammock Gear 20 degree Phoenix. 3/4 under quilt. I use the quilt hooks on the hammock, and they work for holding the UQ in place. Enjoy that awesome set up.

I bought some 3/16 inch synthetic cable...aka that winch rope. 30 ft of it. I run that straight and snug. I then attached two carabiners to the rope. It has a 4800 lbs rating. I hook.the hammock to the same exact spot on the synthetic winch rope. So it sits/hangs at the same exact tightness every single time. I did this to easy the set up and also saw that some had their hammocks rip due to pulling against the tightness of the hammock. This should not happen if you have the center rope in the hammock adjusted right. But using only one rope to hang your hammock from has proven to be quicker set up and take down. And zero guessing on where and how tight to hand it

I EDC my Ursus 45 and love it. I have the DLT exclusive CPM 3V. I am so content with it that I thought I was done buying fixed blades for a while. But this thing looks fantastic and I need some Magnacut 8n my life. Damn it...

I have same chair, and tring to repack it more than one hour 😢

You can have a lot of knife for 1/3 of what this thing cost. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Where did you find this?

Most people nowadays just buy knives for fidget toys anyway. Do you really need a $200 knife ?

Such a beautiful piece I wish all their products came automatically with vertical carry

Beautiful fixed blade

How do you like it

Believe it not,this knife fits my XL hands but there's no room left over. I am a pretty big fan of White River Knives and I don't think they get enough attention.

Thanks for the review.... That's a great looking knife. And, they actually listened to the guy who invented that steel about the optimal HRC. (It's surprising who hasn't.) You have a lot of beautiful knives, brother... I geuss, I need to get one in my XL+ hands before I order one... But, everything else is really calling to me. I would really like a Magnacut blade - and one made at that 62.5 HRC target. And, I am really impressed with White River. Thanks again.

Looks like a Burlap Micarta I love Burlap Micarta

Stunningly beautiful!! I’m ordering one💥💥

Well thanks now I gotta have one

Hi. I might of missed it. No links?

I got the same color for this and the model 1. Their brown burlap micarta looks great and knives are top notch. Really digging this new model as I’m a big fan of this size blade

I’d be getting this before pre ordering from that other company not worth mentioning 😂 that had people waiting 5 and 6 years . 🦅✌️

The full size version is one of my favorite camp blades. I will definitely be snagging this mini version as well.

Thank you for reviewing the knife! I suppose, you're the first one on CZcams who did it.

I just got the same one I really like it so far!!! Awesome video man

A good and thorough review. The upgrades were also useful. I will use a 10x10 tarp and a better pad system instead of those issued wih the hybrid. One tip:go to the area underneath each end of the tarp and follow the ridgeline inwards to the space just before it meets the very end of the shelter. Now tie pardacord, extra shoestrings, rope, or other forms of useful cordage with wicking properties down from the ridgeline. Keep the ridgeline exposed on the inside to space it slightly away from the hammock itself. You can also use a rubber gasket, piece of plastic wrap or some other waterproof material on the inner side to stop water flow there. You can even place a small sponge bead and gasket there after that, if you wish. It's a great way to store your cordage keep it dry and ready while you're at camp too. Tie this cordage loosely in the middle from the ridgeline just beyond the tips of the hammock and let the ends hang down loosely. The cordage will collect the extra moisture trying to drip into the ends of the structure and move it safely away from your shelter. Repeat this procedure on the other side and water getting in from the ends themselves shouldn't be a problem anymore. Another tip:wrap sticky tape around the ridgeline at both ends of the ridgeline, upper tarp lines, and all hanging support lines and now crawling insects can't get to your hammock directly from the tree stalks anymore either. This trick reduces insects to those that either fly or fell on the structure from above, dramatically cutting back on the creepy crawlies as a whole. I hope this all helps and keep up on the great reviews. Cheers

A real pain, I own several Benchmade knives and decided not worth the price. I’ll stay with my lock backs and won’t have to worry about springs breaking.

Do you also fidget a lot? Cause I do and got the springs broken within 3 weeks. Now ordered these as well. Saw your review at Etsy. Let us know how this holds up. 👍🏻

Thanks for posting this. I need to get stiffer springs for my axis lock knives too. My detent is dangerously weak too.

Sure wish I could fix my autostryker that broke.

Great video, how do you keep the bubble wrap from shifting? I used a Thermorest and it moves, but i am a turner. You would think a 4 rating would be enough but no way. I have a zero degree Quilt and you are right it does not work below 40. Thinking a 30 degree bag with the quilt would get me more flexibility but more weight. I've been in major rain and not a drop got in. Maybe a cheap square bag would hold the mat. This is much better than the ground. cheers.

can you please add a picture of the endtip of your carbon fiber poles? Curious if they are rubber/plastic caps that go on the outside of the pole or are they metal domed inserts that go on the inside of the pole. Also, did you order the 600 or 710 size carbon? thanks

Good review and tips but I had to stop the video the poor audio and background noise was too distracting. Don't know what your using to video you might want to do an upgrade!

😊😊

Nice!

Mine came in a week ago, the bridge was loose. There was glue at the edges of the fret wires. The body has some grooves that don't look like they were part of a two piece build. The guitar has two of the same strings, the E and B. The neck pickup is horrible but the bridge was not too bad. I could not get the thing to connect to my desktop, android, Iphone but it did connect to my laptop. They should have built an option with wireless to be used with a cable if desired. The software has not been updated in years. For the price and the headaches I would go for the Fretlight over the light up sticker leds that are the rage right now.

so how long did it last you in years

you still have that mower 6 years later.

That’s awesome I just bought the same kayak and it did not want to stay on track. What did that skag run u

GOOD FOR MOTORCYCLE CAMPING

Cost more send totally

Hi bought my Haven from Amazon. Took it 17 days camping. Went from California to Tennessee and visited all the sites. The tent worked great except I had to reinforce the stress areas with my hand sewing talents. The air mattress leaked from the start in 4-6 hours it was flat. I am looking for a replacement mattress for my Haven Tent! Great design, medium quality craftsmanship.

For the control arm is it a 24????

This guy knows enough to be Dangerous

I have trouble with my Haven setup folding in on itself lengthwise like a taco. I have the Haven air mattress and obviously the poles, but what else could be going wrong?
