Grayl Bottle Lock Hip Pack & June 2023 Giveaway!

It is no secret - I have really gotten into "fanny packs" as of late (*I'm not ashamed of it either*). They are so handy for short day hikes or outings where you don't need a ton of gear. As a result, the Grayl Hip Pack has become one of my go-to bags.

I've got the Renegade's big brother, the Banshee, and absolutely love the knife. The handle shape is just perfect.
Nice!! I borrowed the Banshee for a little while and can totally agree with your testaments to it. It was just a bit too large for my liking...The Renegade fits me like a glove though. Steve sure knows how to make a great knife!
Great vid!!
Thanks, my friend! We need to do an Überleben "Behind The Lens" soon :)
Thanks for tuning into Episode 3 of BEHIND THE LENS...This was a really fun one! What do you want to see NEXT?
yet there is no toilet paper.{ and, no i'm not using leaves}
"Dude wipes" all the way (or the Great Value/cheapo versions of them)! I keep a zip-lock bag of them in my pack now.
I bought a Grayl Ultra Compress filterbottle! What can I make, to test the "BottleLock Hip Pack" you have shown? I write books and a blog about survival and bushcrafting in germany!
3 YEAR UPDATE.... It's cool to see that this video is still getting so much attention...Thank you! I am, indeed, still carrying a lot of this same gear (over 3 years later) - That is proof that quality gear is worth the investment. HOWEVER, my loadout has changed a bit since this video. I've minimized a lot of things based on my experience level, training in the outdoors, and simple because I don't want to carry as much stuff (lol). If you'd like to see an updated Haversack Kit video, let me know by dropping me a comment below!
You know it’s a good set up when while watching the video you’re wondering just how much you’re gonna have to spend a copy the set up
LOL! Yeah, these setups are definitely not the cheapest sometimes. The best route is to slowly acquire good gear, save up & ask for things for your birthday/holidays/etc. Also, it's worth mentioning, I still use a lot of the gear I've shown in this video, all of these years later...So, it's built to last :) Maybe I'll have to do a "Best Budget Haversack" video at some point as well...It's always fun to maximize the 'ole dollar on a solid setup! Thanks for watching & commenting!
Really cool and original how you are doing these videos!!!
Thanks so much, Kevin! I'm so glad you're enjoying them. Have a great upcoming weekend, man!
That was fun. I don’t really shoot knives but do shoot other edc stuff. Nice to see your process. I’d be curious to hear more about gear; camera settings, focal lengths of choice and what you’re looking for when scoping out compositions. Maybe some editing tips too 🍻
@@m4jqp thanks so much for watching!! I actually got my start in the Everyday Carry industry as well (I worked for a company that, primarily, created wallets). It’s so much fun getting out here and finding the perfect shots…I’ll keep your requests in mind for future videos 🤙🏼📸
Great way to kick off this series man! I love the behind the scenes look.
@@RikkiHernandez thanks, man!! As you know…The behind the scenes always looks a lot different than the finished product, lol 👊🏼📸
Cool Video my friend, Subscribed! 🔥
@@AlexWander thanks, Alex! I appreciate it, man 😀👊🏼
Loved it, thank you for taking us along. You have such talent for this
Thanks for watching and for the kind words!! I really do appreciate it 😀
Love it. I need all the tips I can get. Trying to improve my product shots of my knives. It’s an art all to itself. Thanks bud!
I hope you enjoy the videos, man! It’s gonna be fun 🙌🏼
I am now Awake!
🤜🏼🤛🏼
Very cool man
Thanks, Bill! I appreciate, man.
WoW! That’s Awesome! 🤩❤️✨
I've been a big fan of the LOCHBY stuff! Stay tuned in the coming months - I'll have more of their stuff popping up :)
One question how many leaks. It can be done GeoPress® One-Way Drink Mix
I've had no issues with the Geopress leaking...Even in the horizontal bottle carrier here. Thanks for watching!
I wish these came in solids…
I'll pass this along in my next conversation with Grayl. Great idea!
Great load out on the fire bag
Yeap i got a wife who has a bad allergic reaction to mosquitos i was shooked the first time she got a bite and she loves the outdoors 😊
Great review thanks Anthony 😊
Great review thanks anthony 😊
put the duct tape on the outside of the safe
Yes - That's a great add-on for the outside! I've started doing a gorilla tape wrap + waxed hemp-rope wrap, as well as a ranger band to hold it all down. Great additions for fire + repair!
Great video. I can’t thank you enough for saying “oriented”! I hate when people say “orientated”. So many people say it, I want to reorientate their faces!
From the reviews I seen, and the looks of the videos, I can see where this is a quality piece of equipment. However, I just cannot justify spending $100 on something like that when I've had a lot of luck with just a fish line a hook and a stick.
God demo on how to use those small ferro rods. Now I have another thing to try.
Thanks for checking it out! These smaller ferro rods can take a bit of practice to get good at...But, hopefully this video helps people with some useful techniques :)
Superb knife, I love mine and it performs so well
It really is so good!!
I like the straps for holding a bottle, Grayl or otherwise, but $160usd for a fanny pack!!??!! Sorry...gotta pass.
I can totally hear ya on price - I like some expensive gear...But, I always like to have good budget-friendly options around too. Check out these options: • Helikon-Tex Bandicoot and Possum. I have attached shock cord to these to hold my bottle before and it works well-enough to get ya by. • Blue Ridge Overland Gear Bum Bag XL. I love the "Bum Bag" line from BROG. And I'm using the XL a lot this year. Those recommendations aren't identical to the Grayl Bottle Lock Hip Pack...But, hopefully it'll give ya some other good options to take a peek at.
@@AnthonyAwaken It's a cool looking hip pack, don't get me wrong. It's just that it's easily double the $$ of commensurate hip packs from top end manufacturers like M.R., Osprey, Mountainsmith etc. I myself have been known to go in for a high priced item here or there but generally try to reserve that for products that are novel or U.L. and spending double on a hip pack to get a few gear loops on the bottom doesn't fit the bill IMO.
I just received one and instantly have buyers’ remorse. Its quality and volume in NO WAY justifies its price.
Need a good link for Kevlar cord that’s good quality.
This has been my favorite Kevlar Cord: amzn.to/4an5Z9R I've owned a couples of large roles of it now and have had great success with it in a wide variety of applications.
great review!
Great vid. A tip. I always keep a few pieces of folded up aluminum foil for a moisture barrier in my fire kit.
Fantastic tip! I need to add some aluminum foil back into my kit...I always use it and forget to replenish it, lol. Thanks for the reminder :)
Waxed jute Amazon Ericx
awesome kit Anthony. did you buy the kydex sheath separately? I've only found them with leather sheaths.
Master of cinematography and photography. Always a joy to watch your videos my friend.
Thank you so much! That means a ton to hear.
🤣
Question: I looked on the Helikon tex US website & couldn't find the same bag you have. Any idea on if they r just not selling the one anymore or am I looking on the wrong website?
A knife for a blind guy.
What's the overall of all this gear? With empty bottle.
I can't remember the exact weight of this kit. But, these days I try to keep my haversack loadouts light (5-8lbs max). I've noticed if I carry much more than that in a haversack it can get uncomfortable.
Gracias Ed por tu servicio y consejos, soy de Tijuana y te entiendo.
Nothing wring with it. I made my wife something similar & german hunters back in the day carried the "Knicker knife" which is basically the same thing.
Great shots of the field sharpener 🌲🔥🌲
Thanks so much, man!
Love the video man! Nice to see the Ale 8 make a cameo :)
I would watch the full sharpening vid! Something I need to get better at!
Oh yeah, man!! Ale8 is always close at hand :)
Great review and quality video. Just picked up one of these for my hunting trips up here in Alaska and it is WELL worth the money!
Awesome to hear!! This would definitely be a fantastic day-back for hunting trips...I agree with that. Best of luck on your upcoming hunts :)
Thanks for the video, really good insight and I just ordered one of those awesome patches. I do have a question, at 3:14 in the video you showed a diffrent bag with what looks like a light of some sort. Can you tell me which light that is?
Awesome!! Thank you so much. As for the light - That is the Fenix E-Lite. It, unfortunately, looks like they've discontinue it now. That was a fantastic clip-on light for packs like this.
is it just me or does the lighter look half the size?!? 😂
Yes - This is a Mini BIC Lighter. It fits a bit better in the "5th Jean Pocket" than the full-size BIC's.
Excellent lil system you've created. You've got a new subscriber.
Thanks so much!! I'm glad you dig it!
Love my Grayl
They do great work, man!
God bless you Ed. I look forward to the day we meet.
Never told the steel type lol
1095 Carbon Steel with Stonewash finish.
