Your channel is one of the channels I used to help me create an emergency kit. Just wanted to tell you thanks, I live in Puerto Rico and during the earthquakes I was able to do everything I needed for a family of 6 with 4 backpacks including the food, which lasted us weeks. All thanks to all the small but helpful items you show here. If you ever wondered if your channel makes a difference, it has. We have 4 kids and they were ok during the scariest time of their lives because we were prepared and they felt safe.

The desert in winter looks like so much fun, a perfect combo of weather and environment, i would really like to move out west some day!

That intro, that music, pure art! Really captures the feeling of outdoors and the area!

2:28, living the dream. "I have a friend, I have a friend now. A hungry friend, but a good one. I have a friend named fire."

Thanks for filming

Perfect for six cans of beer.

Thanks for the review James. Just ordered one.

Another great video. The new spice kit now gives you a reason to use your other vic knife.... Cork screw!

You forgot one thing: an emergency whistle! 😁 PS: I'll give you a quarter for that hat!

Awesome video my friend. Like the haversack. Been looking at Haversacks may have to get this one

Very cool haversack load out!!! Like the look of the Eisenhower!!! Thanks for the review.

Great video James and Cuervo. I have seen this pack on Malcolm's site and read the dimensions, but it really helps to see it in action. It looks like it would have 100's of good uses.

Thanks for great information .

Spring is coming soon I’ll be out In the woods soon for my own bush craft outing. great video keep them coming 😁

Great bag! Love my HW stuff. Nice video.

Awesome video buddy, loved the content as always... keep up the great informative work.. hope to camp/hunt soon

Nice EDC kit! - the backpack design looks cool :)

Nice kit you got there. Im loving that bag! Malcolm always is top tier with his designs

Thanks nice bag. Looks to be the right size for day and short trips.

Thank you!

Great bag and very informative video! Thank you I really enjoyed it and learned a lot.

Awesome gear and a great location.

Fucking hell yeah man, the environment and camping site is perfect. Your background in all these shots make me jealous. Cuervo's music in the background, perfect.

I have one of the fett haversacks, an assortment of puches and just ordered one of the puukkos. Great gear. Great company. Great video.

Nice review ! Have had that little sack on my radar for some time . Looks like a nice addition to any outdoorsman’s quiver of gear . May have helped push me to get one

Like it keep putting out good videos

Awesome, haunting music!

good review nice simple and compact bag for a day outing

Great review. Thanks for sharing. Made in USA, Great.

Wow it’s a lot bigger than it looks in pictures. Just ordered a forest rucksack myself 🙂🙂🙂

lovely stuff

I wish I could order this.. It looks fabulous. Its so so cool.

I like your stuff mate. Good videos

amazing stuff

That bag is prefect ! gotta get me one !

Great review, James. Kick ass music, too.

I really liked that intro! Another great gear review for the books!

Simple but perfect bag excellent work by the hidden woodsman. Love the book I have had the same copy of it since I was in middle school.

I love the production on these videos, especially the music. Well done. I really went back and forth on whether to get a Hidden Woodsmen or the Raging River haversack. It was a tough decision but I went with the Raging River. But I hope to get the new Forrest Ruck from Hidden Woodsmen for my birthday or Father's Day.

This was a really cool video.I may have to get this bag,have a HW haversack and it has been stellar.👍

I really like that book, I read it many years ago. It's a good survival story!

Malcolm makes awesome gear good vis love that little fix blade can't wait to see the vid on it , looks like it be a great camp blade

Really nice pack, great go to emergency pack.

Great review, I am a new Hidden Woodsmen fan and I missed this bag when it came out. I saw one for sale on the secdary market but wasn't familiar with the bag. Now after seeing your review I going to try and get one. I absolutely love his new larger Havasack but sometimes you only need or want a smaller bag.

Great looking sack, simplistic but nice, and packed nicely. Looks like a workhorse blade. Thanks for the look into your bag! I have some pinefire products too 😉👍🏼

Loved the intro!

Love that Little spice kit.

Excellent load out James, that exodus knife is a awesome Jacob's doing good stuff. Townsend spices is a great touch👌 My favorite, Gary Paulson's Hatchet what a great book really liked that final touch.

I use linen bags with drawstrings to store my cook wear, it helps keep the inside of your pack clean and you can wax treat them to make them water resistant 👍😁

I love my duluth haversack, this one is nice as well.

Nice sized haversack can fit a small tackle box in there wit some other essentials thanks james you just gave me a good idea 💡

Well done James👍

I have an unused wwii army bag that is about that size and shape. It was used for carrying radio tubes on communication jeeps. Now i got a good idea for its use. Thanks.

I like the bag need to get one or two

Thank you 👍🙏🙏🙏..( Nutmeg Tavern Rocks)

That secondary knife is REALLY interesting. I will eagerly await your review on it. I’m thinking I need one. But I’ll wait for your expert opinion it. I can see where this haver sack would be practical. For me, an afternoon & evening of fishing on the Snake River. As ALWAYS. Great vid and review of ALL your gear. You should have 1 million PLUS subscribers! Thank your for your hard work. Great job!

Very cool items. Was surprised by the spice box.

You definitely are the first, I was looking for a review before I just went ahead and bought it about two weeks ago. Looks like a great pack should be getting mine soon! I was born in Ruidoso where were you in NM?

Also, what is the weight of your haversack when loaded? Thank you

Awesome new bag James and nice kit loadout! Can't beat HW👊. Wade

Thank You! This matches what I've been looking for, for a couple of months now. A couple of minor possible suggestion/modifications. A lanyard and clip inside the main compartment, for your keys, small flashlight, or a knife. A closeable [coil zipper?] compartment/pocket on the inside of the flap, and maybe the flap a little longer, for more coverage down the front. Is the exterior waterproof/resistant?

Even your gloves look brand new

Wow guys! That intro was bomb. The music, the background, the scene. *Chefs kiss* where were you guys?

Awesome video. Which haversack do you think is more versatile, this one or the other HW? Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your video. One question: How large is the volume in Liters? Thank you, Morgan

Cuervo getting down on that soundtrack!

Good video good review. God bless. From Glenn CATT in Massachusetts.

Sweet looking bag & wondering if it would able to use for a water container for survival purposes

Nice haversack!

I own one of his 1st haversacks in OD green love it well made smaller than this one but I like it being a little smaller cause I use it with and OD full-size Duluth pack they look great together and when I want to go scouting around etc I can just bring the haversack and leave the large backpack back at camp. I am a small guy so I’m sure this would be a good bag to use like I use mine but with more gear and a heavier load which would be great if u can carry more like that day in and day out on who knows how many calories etc. It would also make a great get home bag for the trunk of your car especially if u work far from home it’s a great size for a 3 day get home pack.

Malcom makes some top notch gear. Nice review as always. Perfect load out.

This one and the French trade satchel I liked because of the singular buckle on it. And I own a French trade satchel that he sells.

Great video, what justin boots are you wearing in the video.

I remember that book/movie hatchet. That one, and My side of the Mountain (my favorite growing up) i had a kool 6th grade teacher.. As for the hidden woodsmen. Ive thought of attaching a d ring somewhere on the top under the flap to quick snap my keys/flashlight. Buckled down, it should keep them from jingling around. 😀👍

Nice video. Love your hat. Can you share where you got it from?

Thank you on info.Hidden Woodsman was a scary purchase,as I inv ested in a backpack.The quality was obvious upon receiving it,realized it would be able to pass on to grandkids and beyond,and never looked back.Ernie @ Paleo hiker is top of line,also,so,I would say good job,sir!

Love the cinematography on your videos it always looks like the starting of large budget movie.. I been experimenting with different lens to get better results on my videos.. that M44 Haversack is really simple and nice am definitely going to order one.. I like that pocket spice ket is there a way you could send me a link to get one? Thank you..

Hey man! Is paracord your favorite type of cordage? I have used paracord from day one in the outdoors, but I finally ordered bankline a few weeks ago and I'm really loving the way the bankline grips on itself. Are yoz using bankline as well?

James have you ever considered adding a solar panel a folding one to your kit?

Gary Paulsen's Hatchet in the back sleeve? That gets a like.

Have you ever used the doughnut method for managing you para-cord

Where abouts in New Mexico is this filmed at? It looks super familiar. Cheers.

Thats nice! 25.00 now, I might get one! I like that!

Nice utility pack. Everything is so clean and unfrayed, the whole survival situation seems to be a recipe for product selection. Don't get me wrong I like watching these what's in my pack videos, but you can do all this setup for so cheap and smaller so you can carry it around all the time, living out of it for daily needs, it becomes second hand familiar and more dialed in useful when you deperatly need it

Dry cotton balls are excellent tinder! Cheap. Lightweight. Works everytime. What to take and what to leave is an age old problem. Check out what Ötzi the ice man had with him a long time ago! Sometimes what you have in pockets is important.

How bout hiking up to cottonwood springs and getting video of the small couse deer early one morning.

Nice shoutout to Townsend's channel

Love the fire pouch - good stuff, what state are you in?

Im about 7 chapters into Blood Meridian and its badass.

Why the cuban heel and spur mounts?

ok. small spice kit was awesome

Nice purse

Nice review James. It seems it holds more than I expected. Who was the guy and company that made your leather kangaroo pouch. Thanks for sharing this video.

I like 2 some day I,'ll get one

Add a plastic grocery bag for dirty cook set.sew a loop and key ring inside to hook keys too.or easier tie a loop of cord around strap hang keys then drop inside.carry around awhile try ur own mods see what u can do with it.

James, I just found your channel. Are you in New Mexico?

Army surplus sustainment pouch and a 2qt canteen strap

Where were you at for the video?

I like simplicity myself, I like frontier/vintage clothing and kit I used to buy all the newest gear then I just felt like it kinda took some of the fun out of things or looked to modern for my tastes.

The bag is awesome and only 50 bucks nice but that neck knife is cool been looking for something like that
