This is my pack carry knife. You can attach the belt clip to the sheath in any orientation you like. The sheath holds the knife very securely.

Ordered one of these and it came in yesterday. Pretty meh to me; nothing special. Not a fan of the hood and it's very lightweight. Maybe something you grab when it's 55-60 degrees. Kangaroo pocket is cool, but I don't plan on keeping it.
I wish Kuiu had more pants with multiple inseam lengths - only the Attacks come in 3 different lengths.
Prana Zion's are really comfy and the stretch is crazy, but they hug my thighs like a scared koala....and I don't even have big thighs.
The EB Guides are even worse leg constrictors. If...
Anything in the 1800-2200 cu inch range will generally fit day pack requirements.
Then you have to decide whether you want a framed or frame-less pack. If you're going to carry out meat on your first trip out, you'll likely want a frame pack. Then you'll say, well shoot, if I'm going to get a...
Grommets seem like an easy solution that wouldn't be costly or hard. I wonder if a grommet would allow water to wick up into the bag? I suppose if they used a cone-shaped grommet rather than a flat one, it would funnel water out, but resist it from wicking up...
No horseshoe zipper or method for accessing stuff at the bottom??
The material is intriguing, but if I have to dump everything out to get to something at the bottom, it's a deal breaker for me.
EDIT: After watching the video, I see there's a full side zipper that wasn't visible in all the...
The delayed shipping is a freight issue I think. I've had Amazon and Costco orders show shipped, but they don't move for days. I think shipping companies just can't keep up so stuff sits sometimes.
After seeing/hearing about so many people who get lost or have an accident and aren't found until many days later when they're dead, I never enter the woods without having tracking ON. If I'm incapacitated, the track will show exactly where I am and hopefully I'll be rescued within hours -...
I find the engineering involved impressive and overall it's well thought-out. It's definitely better than the G.O.A.T. release IMO. I like the all-in-one concept for consistency reasons. I'm just not sure I like the fact that you have to hold the thumb down during tension mode; and hit the...
Agree; it's a personal thing and depends on what's important to you. I went to check out the Rick Young and it's just a couple straps. Not at all what I want in a harness. My primary purpose for a harness is to have a convenient place to put my wind checker, mouth reeds, range finder, and...
x2 for the Kuiu climbing belt. Cut it to length, then round it off and burn the end.
I bought a Marsupial, but never wear it because the square ends are a pain to feed though belt loops. And once you get done fighting the leading end through your belt loops, then you get to feed the...
