When I entered the 1st grade in 1947, military surplus from WW II was abundant. My "Haversack-style" book bag for grades 1-10 was a U.S. Army gas mask bag with adjustable shoulder & waist straps; & it cost me a whopping 25 cents! Your video brought back meaningful memories & post-WW II days when our oudoor gear was primarily military surplus & common household or hardware store items. At age 83, I still love the woods & one of my woods-walk bags is a European surplus haversack-style shoulder bag with interior dividers & compartments. You provided a very interesting & meaningful presentation; your haversack load-outaddresses very basic outdoor needs. Opinel knives are hard to beat! Thanks for sharing, & may God bless you, sir!
Military surplus can’t be beat!
Greetings from the woods of Sweden.
I know nordic military gear and it great 👍🏻😃
Looks like a good option
That is really nice, and only $10, cant beat that.
Thats what I started with now I have a raging river haversack from Etsy. Easy to over pack it.
Can’t go wrong with the classics !👍👍😁
I think I will have to get one! Thanks 😊
It is a great item to have one and have been using on day hikes. Hello from Finland
Now I need one!
Gas mask bags always make great day bags because they nearly all have the multiple pockets inside them for the decontamination kits, cloves, detector paper books, and naps sets. The modern ones still have the multiple compartments but lack the aesthetics of the old canvas and leather. Somehow I have not seen the Fin bags before, but they remind me of the US lightweight service mask bag M6 minus the center stud. I sometimes use a vintage Bulgarian one that is much the same as the Fin bag and a great bag for all the same reasons.
Awesome! As usual.
I'm carrying a Romanian haversack from the 1980s. I treated the canvas to make it like oil cloth. I've had it four years, and it's served me well.
Great use of the bag for a Haversack. It sure holds everything you need . Lots of great gear inside love that gritrgear titanium canteen set and that vargo stove . Thanks for sharing
I've used a gas mask bag for 50 years
Am going to Army surplus this weekend.
Nice
I remember one of your early vids on the Finn Has Mask Bag... I have one too. It is my only haversack currently. Absolutely love it.
I just bought one of these about 2 weeks ago! Its a great bag and I like the traditional look of it. Thanks for the video!
Love the Finn gas mask bag!
THKS
Looks like you have come full circle,back where you started. I’ve done the very same thing,back to the basics with gear and I’m glad of it. Got the Finn gas mask bag, it’s the lighter one, my first haversack, would like to get the heavy canvas one. Really like the design of the bag with the internal pockets, enjoyed the video
Thanks!
Great looking bag. One of the first videos I watch of yours was on the Polish Bread Bag. Got a three pack for dirt cheap and gave them to my boys when they are young. They still have them and use them on hikes.
Awesome!
Awesome video
Awesome thinking outside the box. My last purchase was a brand new REI daypack small. I bought it brand new on ebay $90 new, $17 ebay.
Spray painted it a subdued color.
Maybe spray the bottom with some kind of waterproofing?
You got room for a few 3-5mil trash can liners multi use item 😁👍
Good looking kit , thanks for sharing YAH bless !
I was just researching some surplus Haversack options. I think they are more like $30 now a days. Still worth it.
I just bought that one for $10. There are deals out there.
just bought off of etsy yesterday $9.99 plus shipping
@@benterwellen I'll head there now.
Found one in a thrift store that an artist had painted a large red moped on it. Well done but not my vibe. Rattle canned it in OD and it is my daily work bag. Lunch ,files, and hat, gloves, rain gear live in it all the time plus whatever else I deem necessary.
while tweezers are good to have, for the size and weight involved it is really worth it to have a dedicated tick key. they are only a couple bucks, and do a much better job of getting the entire tick out. you just drop it over the tick, flat side down, and pull back slow. it removes the entire thing safe and clean.
other than that, good load out.
IMO the main thing that makes a haversack a haversack (instead of a bicycle messenger bag) is the vertical length being at least 2 inches longer than its width. Otherwise the bags feel oddly placed against the body. There’s also the trend of guys LOADING their sacks. Personally I’d rather keep mine almost empty while my ruck does the heavy lifting. Use the haversack for carrying emergency essentials or as a forage sack on short day treks
😊
Too bad the Finnish GM bags have gotten so scarce. All the sources that had tons of them for years are now out of stock, prices way up on individual bags.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
How much longer can u move the shoulder strap I'm 6ft5 would it. Fut
Watch out when we get older our bodies change and might break out with poison ivy. Good video
Awesome bag Sir! Can you tell me where you got it for $10 please? I can't seem to find one except the ebay bag for $36.00. I want one for ten. It's a great size bag for a small survival bag or a day hiking bag with your lunch and your emergency EDC stuff that is always with you on your person. It's just awesome. I need to find one. Any ideas where I can get one for a good price like you did? Please let me know and thanks for the great video. Hope to hear back from you soon.
At a military show
Sadly, not so easy to find. And not so cheap. Any comparable alternatives?
Everywhere I look, it is out of stock.
Etsy has them just ordered one…
@@benterwellen - Thanks for the info. I was looking mostly on ebay and surplus stores.
Etsy is sold out, from the dealer that bought mine
