I noticed you usually wear cowboy leather boots. Have you ever had any problem with thorns penetrating ? I live in Laredo,Texas and after trying various military style boots I find that Rocky Jungle boots will stop even 4 inch mesquite torns from penetrating. Could you do a review on footwear?

Looks like a fantastic haversack. I've been eyeing some of Tuff Possum's gear on my Instagram account lately. I totally see the Tiki face on that buckle, haha! Looks like it can fit quite a bit and is really well constructed! Great review, my friend! Keep it up!!

James, great video. I've never heard of Tuff Possum Gear, but it looks like high quality stuff. I really like the interior design of the haversack! Very well thought out. If there is one thing that I'd modify (and this is just me being picky), I'd replace the 2" flat webbing shoulder strap with 2" tubular webbing. I'd cut off the existing webbing, leaving enough material to be able to sew on a 2" double D-ring at each connection point. Then, I'd add a length of 2" tubular webbing. The reason for this is to increase the versatility of the haversack. You could store a 21" Bahco bow saw blade inside the tubular webbing, and it would lie flat so you'd never know it was there. You could also store long tent pegs in the vertical portions of the webbing to save space in the haversack. While in camp, you could use the 2" webbing as a strap around a tree to support a hammock; if you're a climber, tubular webbing is excellent for protecting ropes around sharp rocks. The uses are endless.

I usually carry an old German breadbag made of canvas. Three slots one for first aid, one for cooking things (oil, herbs and spices) and one for utensils. The main pouch is used for food and other stuff like Opinel 12 stainless steel and cutting board. The main cooking vessel, water container and survival stuff is on my bushcraft belt.

@iPac9mm well, presumably he doesn’t do that on a EDC basis, just like I don’t carry mine in my pack. All I carry in mine is whatever I need for the day, some extra clothes like a jacket and a spare pair of socks, some water and snacks, a rather comprehensive first aid kit…that’s it. I’m guessing he has a similar thing going on inside his haversack on a daily basis too 🤷🏼♂️

Very helpful review on the Tuff Possum Haversack The bags design is quite usefully engineered and the craftsmanship of the bag is impressive. However, I do have reservations regarding the buckle design and assembly. It appears to be made of a cast plastic material and over the years I have not had good experiences with plastic buckles/hardware. In any event, thanks for another great video review.

I still like The Hidden Woodsman's haversack better. The PALS webbing on the sides is a great place for an ifak and a bottle pouch. And the axe sleeve is great. I get this isn't called a haversack but I'd rather have a Hidden Woodsmen haversack in the outdoors. Nothing against this bag, looks well made. I like the 2 pockets on the inside front of the bag but the Laser cut PALS webbing on the inside back makes no sense to me, I'd rather have elastic webbing. And that buckle is extreme overkill.

It’s a cute little bag although I prefer my now rare large German bread bag that. I got from Sports Mans Guide several years ago for about $30. It measures about 18” x 12” x 9” fully loaded. it has 3 pockets on the outside which are under the flap when it’s closed. It also has a divider inside. I got mine in black and used it as an EDC bag until I retired. Then when we had the 6,250 acre Marshall Fire with 1,084 homes destroyed in December which was only a few miles away, I repurposed it as an Evac bag. The one big danger of a bag this large is that it’s really very easy to overload it if you want to walk very far so I would try to use mainly ultralight gear in it for bushcrafting or camping.
