I just picked up an inexpensive bum-bag from Matalan in their sale (down to just £3). It has the double ended zip which I had never seen on a bag before, only ever on coats. Reckon it will be a great feature.

The plus scales also gain the pin! Wenger scissors are really a poor design, i believe ! They snag up on some types of paper, and although Victorinox have put a rivet to secure the two halfs together, they are out classed by their once rivals? One thing i have also noticed is how light the evo series are, and this to me is a put off as they feel cheap? But are way more expensive than the Victorinox equivalent models these days?

The holes in the main compartment are such a huge design flaw that I would never feel comfortable carrying it. Everything else is just beautifully designed. Too bad.

Just ordered a pouch on your recommendation. Good work

The roulette wheel is cool because you can do dark alleyway illegal gambling with it.... and its actually a piece of art.

Regardless of content - the production value and the fact that videos have all the chapters delineated and links to products - makes these videos such a treat.

This man seems like a smug douche

I wish there is a sling bag like Bellroy 2.5L to fit a small camera like the X100V and other stuff, which would require a divider. When I pack mine there is no room for other things because the camera is floating around and I don’t want anything to scratch it. I personally feel the glasses pocket is not useful and I’d prefer the divider and small padding instead. I also have the Peak Design 3L but it gets dirty really easy and impossible to clean, while it lacks on pockets and the front zip is really tight. I like the idea behind Wotancraft sling bags and accessories but I don’t like the design at all 😢.

Another really useful vid!!😊

Beautiful, expensive, immaculately clean set of tools . This is the perfect tool kit for the safety man on site.

Love your channel

I found a Wenger Traveller at my local antique centre and it has replaced my Vic tourist as my E.D.C .Bit of a shocker about the evo scissors.

I have a minichamp and the bantam in evry day carry it s good for me.

Only in the UK would you worry about a 1/16” chisel being considered a fixed blade knife. Good news is if you run into the cops it’s conveniently suppository sized.

VERY good point on bag height and how the other bags seem to send all your contents to the bottom! Nave you looked at the Vanqest Tekko 6??

Hello Jon. Watched your videos for quite a while now and really enjoy them. I love the look of the Alpaka Zip Pouch you recommend. I'm in the market for an extended wallet like that but don't really want to mess with shipping from the US as I'm in the uk. Is there something similar on Amazon that you could recommend.

You can't even carry a pocket knife 😂😂😂😂😂 your country$. Europe is out of control. America will never give up our guns cuz WERE NOT STUPID LIKE THE REST OF YOU MORONS WHO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHTS!!!!! TSK TSK TSK YOU HAVE DONE THIS TO YOURSELVES BY CUTTING OFF YOUR OWN BALLS!!!!!

Dont forget the gold money clip ? To keep those £100 pound notes nice and level and crisp ....

As someone who recently acquired a 7L Bellroy Lite sling I do question their sizing claims . The capacity seems identical to my Tomtoc 3.5L

Wow, learned something new about Jon Gadget!

Is there any shops in the UK I can try the bellroy slings out for size ?

Nice👍

I lived in Switzerland in1997 in locarno a got my first SAK and came back to Ireland and have it right now in my hand and use it nearly daily, amazing knife that has a difference to all other knife company brands is that you would hand it down to your family and thats what victorinox is known for, I also got a swisstoolx for my 21st birthday off my brother who lived in Switzerland for 15 years back when they first came out originally so both tool are bought from the local region in Switzerland, I have put this swisstool through hell I dropped it accidentally of apartments from 4 floor and not a problem also drove over it and I actually use this daily, I was gifted a cybertool recently and love it, quality counts and this is why victorinox is the best and other brands cant compete because of the customer service and quality control, no matter how many other brands try to copy them people realize they are just a just trying to imitate swiss victorinox but will never replace them

I love that they made some new design scales, for what I hope could be my new second Sak edc, I really really appreciate it, and I feel like a lot of women who love them would and do appreciate it, and others who love design, but it’s twice as much, which is just so so sad. Otherwise it would be amazing!!

I really love the Bellroy 9L sling but unfortunately it doesn't really carry an 11" iPad.

Doe's victoronox make a folding razor/box cutter with the tools of the knife?

There's a direct correlation between men losing their testosterone and starting to be interested in stuff like this. Your 'just in case' mentality has kicked in. Happens to everyone eventually. That's why people 'of a certain age' suddenly take up hill walking : it's a substitute for sex. You don't need to go out with a pouch, with sticking plasters, a torch, and meds to go the shops. Get a grip of yourself.

I saw a flask and needed to see what was up

Es wäre schön wenn Viktorinox einen online Konfigurator hätte, so daß sich ein individuelles Modell zusammen stellen könnte. Zum Beispiel ein Bantam X Alox. Und ähnliches.

Bantam X Alox why not?

Long time fan of the channel John, and as someone who owns both the 9L and 10L slings I'd like to add my input. I love both! I actually for a while used the 10L as a camera bag and the 9L as EDC. The 10L has more opening, and the main compartment can be split into 3 sections, feels roomier, and the straps on the outside worked great for carrying a rolled up jacket if needed. I do actually prefer it's actual sling and that lives on the 9L, basically allows to quickly loosen the strap to easier access, and pull tight when on you so it's not moving around as much. Only other thing I noticed as well is the 10L, even thought it has the compression straps like all slings, it can't really compress due to the design for it to carry a camera. Either way I love both, I've been EDCing the 26L Venture backpack to accommodate for my kiddos stuff, but I definitely am looking into condensing my carry to the 10L I miss them 😅

That's very interesting and informative, but I still just want an alox Rambler, that's all I care about lol.

Have you looked at the scottevest? Would love to see a review on this and any recommendations or alternatives to this? Great review as always mate

İ think roxon flex is the best one to kill Leatherman, because it's full modular

I just hire illegal aliens when I need something fixed

I went from the Bellroy Lite Sling to the Go Sling from Alpaka now that I need to carry an iPad Air on occasion. I agree with all of your comments on the Go Sling: the entire strap is dumb, I end up using just the grab handle on the top and removing the strap altogether.

And as of today the Osprey bag is on sale in two of the colours

First I've heard of EDC, but I absolutely love it!

Maxpedition bag would be even better if the inside of the bag lining was a lighter color, such as olive green or tan.

Really enjoy your channel. Respect from Argentina

I didn't like Viktor, he had a Spartan. Today I have a Spartan too but I still don't like Viktor ☝️☝️👍

Me here with a vest stuffed with my EDC:

I just have to remember how to unlock it every time I use it. :D

Excellent review. I fine the real world loadout as part of the review to be EXTREMELY helpful!

Cheers to your investigation Sir.

I do wish it had one more zipped pocket at the rear. Also, the side compression straps can be used as “MOLLE” to attach other items in a pinch.

Another bag you may wish to check out is the Alpha One Niner Chio-x. It's a 9-10L bag but the layout is incredible and it has now become a part of my 1.5 bag travel set up. I also use the 2.5 belroy sling as my daily carry when I am at home.

That grab handle has been a thing I miss the most on my Tom Bihn. The Alpaka is something I’ve been eying but have the same concerns about the bulky buckles and padding. If I need padding, I’ve likely overpacked.
