    I have owned this satchel for almost a year now. I love it. It's my EDC bag.

    Had it for quite a while as my every day carry to work. The two pockets on the inside are awsome for a small collapsible umbrella and a thermos mug. Like the outside compartment for bits and pieces. That is about the positive bits I have to say about it. Although I´m a pretty tall guy I still have problems to make the shoulder sling to get short enough for the bag not to bump on my butt all the time. The size of the bag is way too big; if I have to carry that much stuff I rather have a bag on my back. The shoulder strap have a snap buckle at each end but does not add any positive function.... Do not machine wash! Any big and bulky item, like a book, will travel down to the bottom and hit you at every step you take as the bag bounces. Sorry, this bag is retired to the back of my wardrobe.

    A military poncho would be great to wear when you just carry this bag

    I purchased the bag after watching your first vid, went with the gray model. Took it with me this past week for a short trip, it passed muster! Never heard about it or the company, thanks for turning us on to both. I did add the maxpedition shoulder pad, may not have needed it but got it any way. Looking forward to using it this summer, thanks again!

      +w0dpd awesome glad you dig it. Now if helikon Tex would pay me. Lol

      I added a shoulder pad to mine because I have a tendency to overload the bag... but learning better. It should not be overloaded because then you wind up shifting shoulder sides over and over for comfort. Excellent bag.

    I have seen the bags and they do work well but like you said not water proof but repellent water a little with some spray on water proofing a little more so but leak thrue the zippers a lot but they do functions well to keep things fully dry you need to in close everything in zip lock bags but as for people asking how well they hold up when running even when I was in the Marines when we were on maneuvers thrue the forest or where ever even with a full pack we did not do a lot of running as you do not want to call a lot of attention to your self. I understand in a war zone you have to move fast but even then you carry as little extra weight as possible and that is strapped down as much as possible.

    That bag really turned out great! Plenty of room, and very durable can't go wrong!

  • @robertmiller8578
    @robertmiller8578 Před 4 lety +1

    Also in the kit I would add a compass and some sort of food/meat getting items ( sling shot or something ) it would help make it more efficient and useful.

    Wear a poncho when it rains. Covers you and your haversack

    Love this bag bought a hidden woodsman excellent bag great quality but a bit to small for my needs this bag would be ideal for my purposes I want one

  • @kenferguson6956
    @kenferguson6956 Před 6 lety +2

    Great review, I think a waist strap like the maxped versipak has would make this bag perfect , maybe the 5.11 tier system would work for that

    like the blue knee pad/rigidity idea, what is the material? looking to expand on that piece. maybe something for food prep, with some cutting resistance? any thoughs?

    I've had and used the HT satchel for a couple years now. It's a great go-to bag. I've used it camping, hiking and for travel. I'd LOVE to see a zipper-in-the-rain test. It's the only thing 'sketchy' about the design... will the top zipper leak? Thanks!

  • @KaylynnStrain
    @KaylynnStrain Před 7 lety +2

    that looks like a very versatile bag, looks like your tripod is about the same size as my small one

    Maybe wax the zipper a bit might protect it from some slight rain?

    You should use your HW orange mat. I use mine as a rain cover for my back amongst others uses

  • @crazyguy154
    @crazyguy154 Před 5 lety +2

    For me is this bag to heavy, I prefer my Essential Pack from Tasmanian Tiger. The weight of my equipment is then in the middle of my back and on my shoulders, for me is it much better, as with one shoulder strap.

    great bag, I have been using mine for a few months now for days out with the kids in the woods and works a treat. quick question what were you using to put under your stove, is it something specific or just tin foil?

  • @cmliphone
    @cmliphone Před 6 lety +3

    Nice bag. Putting you on the spot here, but any thoughts on this bag vs. Hidden Woodsmen? Thanks

    • @ThePreparedWanderer
      @ThePreparedWanderer  Před 6 lety +1

      +cmliphone they are both great for different reasons. The satchel is lightweight and has some great features carrying your hatchet, knife and saw. It’s also bigger and hold more stuff. The Hidden Woodsmen is smaller but stiffer material and stands upright. You can’t go wrong with either but I like the Hidden woodsman a little more.

    • @chriswalker7491
      @chriswalker7491 Před 4 lety

      I'll trade my hidden woodsman haversack for one of these any day ...seriously if anyone wants to trade let me know

  • @richhoule3462
    @richhoule3462 Před 4 lety +1

    If you're carrying that much in a haversack, it's time to move to a small pack. That's going to wear on your shoulder badly.

  • @Primitivebearknives
    @Primitivebearknives Před 6 lety +3

    How has this bag held up since you had gotten it? Wanting to get a haversack/satchel. Coming down to this or the hidden woodsman haversack. I like them both but if I can go cheaper I'm going to, I'm on a budget but want something that's gonna last and work.

    • @ThePreparedWanderer
      @ThePreparedWanderer  Před 6 lety +4

      +SC bushcraft backwoods it's held up very well. Very well made. Go for the helikon tex

    • @Primitivebearknives

    on the zipper put on some candle wax that will keep out the rain I promise you, and it will keep it lubed. X special forces..

    Hi. Thanks for the great review. I have a quick question, if you don't mind - what is the cup into which you put the Nalgene bottle? It fits in very well.

  • @mbaja25

    do you like this better than the becker bag?

    • @ThePreparedWanderer
      @ThePreparedWanderer  Před 7 lety +3

      I use the becker for urban EDC and the Helikon Tex for woods haversack.
