45YRS A WOODSMAN 11 YRS ON YOUTUBE HAS COME DOWN TO THIS

i thought long and hard about this video. I am showing a haversack that i designed and had created.the BLACKBIRD haversack has many features not found in other haversacks..i hope you like it..as always thank you for your support and dont forget to comment I WANT ONE in the comments below

[@MrMrBiggles]

Seriously well thought out piece of kit. A loop of paracord (a second component of a buck saw) run through one of the holes in the blade, would make extracting the blade quicker, and reduce the grab and scoot by 50% 😉

[@garyletcher9703]

Which also could be used for the blade tensioner on your field made bucksaw.

[@sherryvan4627]

As a woman who has carried a cross body purse like this...I would recommend netting on each side of the inside. Or you might end up dumping the entire bag on the ground to find something.

[@caribooadventures7898]

Nice! I have a full kit in my backpack but I always end up carrying my haversack from hidden woodsmen. I WANT ONE of these. So many well thought out and useful features.

[@blackoracle69]

Sounds great!

[@mrkultra1655]

I WANT ONE. A left handed model would be preferred, even though I’m right handed. I’ve come to learn to use left handed gear so things don’t interfere with my right hand sidearm. But as the saying goes, “Strike while the iron is hot”, and take what you can when you can. I would be more than happy to be able to buy this haversack from you, sir. This is going to be one fine piece of kit. Thanks, Blackie. I’ve learned a lot from you. Keep it up.

[@per-erikekberg5365]

”BUT WAIT, THERE IS MORE!!! LOL You really cracked me up, son!

[@blackoracle69]

i know could not resist..lol

[@justa.american8303]

Blackie, your design is the best I've seen, bar none. And the backpack conversion is a stroke of pure genius. I'll have to catch the 2nd run though. I had an accident in May that resulted in a broken neck. So funds going for that and I'm still recovering from paralysis, so I can't hit the woods again for months. Keep up the awsome work, and I'll use the time to watch and learn until I get able to hear leaves crunch under my boots. May the Lord bless and keep you and your family safe.

[@numberfive3185]

I totally want one, oh my yes I want one, a million times thank you for everything you have done for teaching us, im truly thankful

[@colinlint]

[@johnpartaka2539]

[@Moroni108]

[@michaelwatts4818]

I WANT ONE ! I WANT ONE MORE! Great job, results from thought and experience, thanks.

[@kirbybranham8759]

I WANT ONE. You did an awesome job of describing your well thought out features - well done!

[@76unclefester]

Love to have one. I really enjoy the content. You and a few others really helped me get threw a hard time in my life. Just getting on youtube on watching these videos gave me an escape from my problems. We lost everything 10 years ago and lived out of a camper for a long time. My wife and two boys that was tuff.

[@pauldixon5624]

Blackie, I have a great appreciation for anything that's done through years of experience. I would have enjoyed seeing this as just yours, so thank you for trying to give people an opportunity at something you have so much time wisdom and dedication to.

[@blackoracle69]

Wow, thank you

[@jadescorpion69]

I WANT ONE. You can tell you put a lot of thought into this it looks really nice... And functional 👍👍

[@tundra0883]

I WANT ONE Great product and review Blackie..

[@monkeyboy6590]

I WANT ONE!!! Heck yeah I want one!! That is some of the best features I've seen in a haversack! Well thought out sir! Well thought out!

[@lindaphelps4673]

Awesome, very cunning with years of experience. Nice piece of equipment that will do you for a day trip to a long camp.

[@FyvX5]

I WANT ONE. I’m learning a lot from you, and i thank you. I especially like the strap designs- using it as a belt pouch, and the angle and ring buckles.

[@FiresideCoffee]

You have some great ideas there my friend. And yes, I Want One! Thanks for sharing

[@karsonbranham3900]

Sign me up, I WANT ONE! Awesome features! Would love to see a collab with pathfinder outfitters and others! Definitely in the shadow of Nessmuk! Well done sir!

[@josephprest2688]

I WANT ONE! Great design, simple and easy.

[@jimgrepling231]

I want one! Great piece of well thought out kit!

[@MrVanjas]

I WANT ONE love the work and thought you put this haversack

[@michaelmerrick5472]

I WANT ONE! Really like your design. After watching your video of the Campcrarft Woodsman I went Down and Dirty and made one from a pants leg. Zero cost and a little hand sewing time but I love your features.

[@barrybaldwin5535]

OF COURSE "I WANT ONE"!!! This is why I follow seasoned pros like yourself. I have had brainstorms like this in my 70 years also, but didn't commit to make them happen. Excellent job Sir.

[@inglwud5625]

I WANT ONE to try out I currently have two polish bread bags I use together and your system looks very useable. Thanks Blackie!

[@michaelallen9571]

That saw blade storage is a game changer, awesome job blackie.

[@donnadonlea5182]

I haves loved and learned from your many videos. I would love to have any of the many designs. Yes, I want one. Thanks for sharing and God bless.

[@blackoracle69]

Entered!

[@brianmiller6055]

Great design Blackie. I definitely want one.

[@kevingibbins3702]

I like it a lot, I made something similar to it some years ago for the daughter of a friend to use at scouts, but I made the most strap longer and double sided with velcro to use as a cache so she could keep secret things young girls need to have hidden. But it is great to see you having it made.

[@codyallen6898]

I WANT ONE! I love the idea how the top folds the inside flap. I always had problems with stuff falling out when I have a sit.

[@tommydavis7336]

Brother, you keep changing the game. I want one! Got the woodscraft haversack and love it. Keep on keeping on Blackie.

[@vonsprague7913]

I got bored counting after 100 lol. There's 45 years experience right there! Unfortunately I live in the UK but that's the best haversack I have ever seen. Well done. I hope you do make a lot of money on them as you pass on so much valuable knowledge for free. God bless you.

[@quinntheeskimooutdoors6234]

Looks great Blackie. Thanks and take care.

[@charliesierra6919]

Great design! A lot of thought went into this.

Seriously brilliant, Blackie... I WANT ONE

[@seanthomasdowd]

Really well thought out piece of kit

[@irvingramirez4614]

Blackie, that bag is one heck of a well thought out multi purpose bushcrafting tool I wish I had. I hope and pray it will go into production for all to have. In the future I will get one without a doubt, that is one great bag, Blackie.

[@benjamincoetzee1369]

Great design and product. Good luck and thank you for the video. If I lived in the States I would have orderd one 🖒

[@backwoodstrails]

Nice design improvement- I want one.

[@boomshanka8743]

Clever stuff brother, I can see you have been busy. You bet your life - I WANT ONE. Maybe consider a tomahawk loop on the back above the molle loops?

[@GunDrone]

Very interesting Idea. Thanks for the video.

[@Shards-of-Narsil]

I really like those features, well thought out.

[@tumbleweed6658]

I want one. That’s a well thought out haversack as you can see by my picture I am a Revolutionary war reenactor and have carried a haversack for many years. Your haversack fixes all the shortcomings of a Traditional haversack. Well done and wish you Success on your haversack.

[@stevesidden9584]

Great idea I love it the only thing that I might would do is put Velcro on the big bag just more less keep it from bagging keep up the good work God bless

[@toddgibson9861]

I like it Blackie....!! I love Jason's work at CampCraft too....

[@jboone5814]

I WANT ONE... What a fantastic haver sack the best i've seen.

[@blackoracle69]

thank you

[@michaelallen9571]

I WANT ONE, I have learned so much from your channel that when you talk... I listen

[@michaelallen9571]

Where is the site to order one?

[@Ozarkwonderer]

Nice! Funny thing in timing. Im currently designing a haversack myself. Having had and played with different ones too. Ill make my own out of leather

[@Curtislow2]

I WANT ONE !A lot of good thought!Will make a great day/ hunting bag!

[@cloudraker100]

Love the innovation and refinement. I hope you and your partners do well with it.

[@blackoracle69]

Much appreciated!

[@kelleyditchburn6293]

I WANT ONE.....Please. this is amazing. I am new to all this and this makes more sense then anything else I have seen

[@DontKeeptheFaith]

Very interesting, BT, as always. And that's a very fair price.

[@Seahag581]

I WANT ONE! IN ALL CAPS! Thanks dude great work

[@westend3019]

A good small bag is a real blessing. I started with Duluth bags, Norwegian knapsack and now use aluminum frame packs for an all-gear storage or smaller Euro military bags (Finnish, mostly) for day hikes, short boating trips. Your haversack looks well thought out! If anything, I'd like to see more attachment points. Not critical but a guy can't have enough. Can be added DIY, too.

[@Hucklebearer78]

Great design!!! I WANT ONE

[@southernlandsolo7839]

I WANT ONE. Will need it shipped to New Zealand so will pay the extra postage of course. Great bag.

[@fdjd28]

Thanks for another good video. You show how spending money on fancy gear is not important, but thinking is.

[@blackoracle69]

Very true!

[@johna6291]

genius, Blackie.. personal customization is the way of any experienced technician. We're all different, and its difficult to find something essential that is built around all of your own needs. Answer; built it yourself!

[@alexanderweaver4838]

You've done a great job designing this haversack, Blackie! I own two Rothco haversacks (ammo bags, really) and at best they are adequate for field use. That belt sleeve for a buck saw blade is ingenious. I am not a 100% proponent for haversacks in that most of them tend to slide with forward bending movement which gravity is the culprit. I resolved that by sewing D-rings on each bottom corner to which I attach an extra strap (luggage strap that is detachable). The bag usually remains at the small of my back where it does not interfere with any shooting position whether I'm standing or prone, even if I have to lie on my side. Anyway, this bag is a brilliant design and I WANT TWO of them, one for me and I will gladly pay for Just A. American, who is suffering from a broken neck injury. At $75 a custom design by Blackie Thomas is a bargain; just sign mine, please!

[@justinadkins6538]

I WANT ONE! You really put some thought into it. I like that. Good job Blackie

[@mikemullins8020]

Hi Blackie, great design, very nice and well thought out. I WANT ONE. 👍

[@blackoracle69]

Thanks 👍

[@jspreparednessandself-reli4856]

I want one!! Great idea Blackie!

[@bruceclark5627]

Will most definitely be starting up a "get me a Blackie bag fund",IMMEDIATELY!!!Thanks for all you do for us!!

[@blackoracle69]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@michaelthayer5186]

I want one. Great design.

[@johandebruto9264]

Looks awesome - one suggestion - take that strap and open it up, maybe add velcro so that you can double up and close it again. Keep a long division in the back, for something like the sawblade, and do 2-3 divisions in the front where you can stick in a pocket knive, lighter, small torch or the like...you can probably add a hair of an inch on the width of a strap to create more space and comfort....maybe add a loose sheepskin sleeve that you can pull the strap through when you’re carrying heavy, or even make it a canvas sleeve that can roll out to a collecting bag... Good luck for now !!

[@stevegodfrey3713]

I WANT ONE , Keep up the great work, enjoy all your videos

[@blackoracle69]

Thanks! Will do!

[@rat1knives771]

I WANT ONE...hey blackie love the videos and all the detail and education greatly appreciated brother

[@blackoracle69]

Right on

[@garyprice8330]

Very nice set up I like it

[@jimssurvival4994]

Nice job, very nice bag stay safe

[@blueduck9409]

Blackie, i may never have met you, but you are certainly a kindred spirit. We both spent a lot of time in the woods over the years. I very much enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for all your effort over the years. Keep up the good work, and dont quit. Keep your powder dry buddy.

[@aalexjohna]

You want him to sodomise you?

[@sacwriter7400]

As a permanent piece of gear for that sleeve, I'd use a spare ferro rod and striker. Maybe you can wrap some masking tape around the ferro rod to cover the sawblade when you return it

[@blackoracle69]

Good tip!

[@thomasmckelvey7446]

Great design Blackie. I would be interested in ordering one when the production model becomes available. I've noticed a few suggestions in the comments for possible improvements/options, so here is mine. I was thinking that a slot across the front layer of the strap, reinforced much like a button hole, just above the tip end of the saw blade would make the insertion/extraction process quicker/easier. A second layer of reinforcing on the underside of the strap, several inches each side of the slot should assure the integrity of the strap. A flap over the slot with a snap would secure the blade. OPTIONAL - Make the flap out of leather, with your smiling face embossed on it! 😁 Or maybe the owners initials? Good luck moving forward with the project and I will be looking forward the seeing the offering you come up with. Best Wishes, Tom

[@belligerentprisoner1959]

Velcro or even a button at the base of that tube would seem better. But 9 months late I'll never get one. 😣 oh well I'll try to make one. GREAT IDEA 👍
