I have one of these too and i love it. I use it for my overall pack. I camp minimal because i have a bad back so i use it to force me not to take too much. I have the bottle kit on the side like you have today with 2 nesting cups (both GSI right now) and i have a little pouch on the other side. This haversack can hold all of my shelter supplies and all of my needs for going out in the woods. I can take some stuff out or put some stuff in depending on my time out.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Wayward Crow Awesome my friend! That's making great use of the Mollie webbing. Thanks for sharing.Take care. Wade

[@mrbluesteen]

Thank you!

[@williambadenoch1439]

Add a Firebox Nano in the metal "x box" case with a Trangia stove and our day hike gear would just about match. Enjoy your videos.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks a lot my friend. I may have added a Nano in the X Case to my kit😉

[@ManInTheWoods76]

SAK tweezers, needles, button compass, whistle, small fish kit... Weighs 1oz. Good kit, buddy

[@Woodswalker1965]

Excellent suggestion!👊

[@ronaldrose7593]

Great review my friend, thank you for sharing. I like your haversack set up. You have all the basics at your fingertips. Take care out there, be safe and have fun. 🤗

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thank you so much! It's nice just going out with a few items. Take care, Wade😁

[@Woodsman_wildcamper]

Nice kit there, Wade. Those hidden woodsman haversacks look great, i've been swaying with the idea of getting one. Thanks for showing it up close. Take care.

[@Woodswalker1965]

AMBushcraft. Thanks bud! Haversacks are a pretty functional piece of kit I think Thanks for the support. 👊

[@shadowcastre]

Nice haversack kit! You have all the bases covered without any excess junk. I just discovered your channel and have been checking out your previous videos. I like your commen sense approach and the fact that there is No bad obnoxious music, and no BS to ruin your very well done videos. I'm subbed!! Thanks for the video....

[@Woodswalker1965]

shadowcastre Awesome to hear you enjoyed it my friend. Im just trying to have some fun and take a few folks along for the ride👊

[@ry-knowcarp7948]

Fall mushrooms are my favorite , very much preferred over spring shrooms

[@Woodswalker1965]

Agreed!

[@kentleclair9939]

Very nice lightweight kit. Looks like it holds all the essentials for a day hike.

[@Woodswalker1965]

+Kent LeClair Thats right bro light and fast thats how I roll. Actually Im neither or fast haha.

[@auroraborealisknives4019]

Great kit setup. Looks very versatile

[@Woodswalker1965]

BushcraftMtl Axe. Thanks brother! Gets me through a day hike!

[@moecantileverjr]

Good video. Thanks for the low down on the hiddenwoodsman haversac. 🔥👍🏕

[@Woodswalker1965]

+Moe Cantilever Jr. Right on brother! I appreciate the support👊

[@couch2trailyoutubechannel281]

Pocket bellows are essential IMO! Looks like a great little kit and versatile haversack!

[@Woodswalker1965]

Couch2Trail KZbin Channel Agreed! Its especially useful with a twig stove to get it going!

[@djxjxixsmjxjskjzxn1853]

Lovely vid. I've been looking for something smaller and waterproof to replace my M90 backpack and this seems perfect. liked the extra bits you added too, thanks for posting.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks very much for watching and for your thoughtful comment, it's very much appreciated 👍.

[@snaponjohn100]

Great video my friend. I just got one of those in the mail. So I haven’t played with filling it up yet. Be blessed. John

[@Woodswalker1965]

snaponjohn100 Awesome my friend, I think you will love it. There is room for 1 or two of your excellent knives.😄 Hope to see a video with your load out one day! Wade

[@northwind9505]

[@Woodswalker1965]

John Grytbakk Thank you very much! I appreciate your support and kind words.

[@Airsoft-shooting]

You got some great looking kit, we just subscribe to your channel so now we got some watching to do, Ady&kim from 🇬🇧👍

[@Woodswalker1965]

Ady&kim wild-Camping uk Uk That's awesome thank you! I appreciate the time you take to watch my channel and for your great comments. Take care. Wade

[@Nigglebaun]

Nice pack. Like what you did with the double cup nesting style. Thanks.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks a lot for watching and commenting. A extra cup isn't a bad thing to carry.

[@wyrdwildman1689]

Great video. Keep em coming

[@Woodswalker1965]

Dale Chatfield Thank you my friend . I'll try🖒

[@Berniewojewski]

Cool video my friend. I'm a little jealous.. Lol. Christmas is coming...im asking for that cook set. Love the haversack

[@Woodswalker1965]

Bernie Wojewski Its a good cookset, a little thin but that makes it lighter. Its strong enough for sure! Thanks for the support buddy!

[@marodriguezsr]

Cool little kit 👍

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks for watching!🖒

[@MarkYoungBushcraft]

Well thought out kit Wade. Been trying to justify adding a Hidden Woodsmen haversack for some time...maybe it will appear on my Christmas wish list. Thanks for sharing...love the SPAM, eggs and ramen...sounds like a Monty Python skit

[@Woodswalker1965]

Mark Young. Yes Sir its not an inexpensive piece of kit but the build quality is outstanding. The haversack concept is worth checking out though. Thanks for your support brother.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Mark Young yes one of the best Monty Python skits ever haha. Spam spam eggs and spam!

[@Beerbelliedtravelers]

new sub!!! Tony sent us over from his last video. he shouted y'all out and we could be happier to have clicked the link. cheers! can't wait to see more. that bag of yours is great!

[@Woodswalker1965]

Beerbelliedtravelers Thanks my friend, I hope to get out more very soon! Thanks for the support it means a lot!🍻

[@Woodswalker1965]

Beerbelliedtravelers I'll be sure to check out your channel brother!

[@Woodswalker1965]

Beerbelliedtravelers btw who shouted me out? I'd like to return the favour I did not catch that video.

[@rockettoutdoors]

New sub here! Great vid n love the kit! Big fan of Malcolm's stuff also!

[@Woodswalker1965]

rockett outdoors Thanks for the sub my friend! Hidden Woodsmen gear is top notch, this is my first piece but wont be my last.👊

[@cabinman]

I like this setup Wade. I had never seen the pocket bellows so i added that to a list. I really need a small axe though. That big 2 lb Husq axe works great but too heavy and long for packing. A Bruks is on my list! Great vid!!!

[@Woodswalker1965]

+2Tiedup Thanks Stan! That Hults head was literally recued from the city dump. I put a new haft on it and a friend made me the mask. Lovin it! Havent forgotten your tag brother😄

[@cabinman]

Woodswalker 1965 Wow what a find! I've been eyeballing the Gransfors "Outdoor Axe"...what do you think about that one? I had forgotten about that tag! Literally.

[@pinkiewerewolf]

Good stuff! I have Malcolm's haversack and the day ruck with the waist belt. they've gone all over with me and the molle webbing and axe sleeves are very useful. I see that on his newer packs he isn't putting the axe sleeve, or the waist belt, thats a shame.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Hidden Woodsmen is awesome gear my friend, I'm glad you're making good use of them. Take care thanks for stopping by 👍

[@atgoh93]

Outstanding kit! Love the little grill and case.

[@Woodswalker1965]

+atgoh93 Thank you very much. Its a perfect size, dinner for one! 👊

[@SornDP]

It's awesome, where di you get it?

[@Woodswalker1965]

SornDP thehiddenwoodsmen.com/

[@Woodswalker1965]

Tell Malcolm I sent you👍

[@SornDP]

Thanks for the answer, is the grill also from Malcom? I can't find it in the store.

[@BackcountryKing]

Nice review brother!

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks buddy!

[@bigfatpear]

good little video.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thank you very much!👍 for the good little comment!😀

[@maritimespook]

Love HiddenWoodsman Gear ! I have the Bahco Laplander Sheath and Small Belt Pouch..Bombproof gear from a good man. Cheers my Friend !! ,,,,Spook....p.s. i gotta get one of those egg carriers lol

[@Woodswalker1965]

maritimespook Yessir great stuff for sure. Makes me want to buy more haha. Thanks brother👊

[@jelkel25]

Hmmm, a couple of years ago I got an all canvas rucksack for day hikes in warmer weather as they make you sweat less than artificial materials, never considered a haversack out of habit, just never owned one. Might have to think on that! Thanks for the vid!

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks for watching my friend. A haversack is a good option, I think I'll take mine out this weekend on a scout! 👍

[@derbybushcraftandoutdoors3176]

Nice. I bought a finish gas mask bag to see how I would like to carry a haversack first. I may upgrade to a hidden woodsman or a helikon haversack once I have some experience with them. I like to challenge myself with minimal gear.

[@Woodswalker1965]

+Derby Bushcraft and outdoors. For sure, lots of great options out there including mil surplus. The Helikon Tek bag looks awesome, its slightly bigger than the HW. Let me know how you like the haversack👊

[@ReuvenEtzion]

I got this same bag a couple of years ago. The very first time I used it, the stitching on the hatchet sleeve came unstitched. I felt they could have done a better job there, but the rest of it has held up so far. I was going to buy more of their products but the bad stitching has kept me away. I’d like to see some of their other products go through some testing. Their stuff LOOKS nice.

[@Woodswalker1965]

That's too bad, this one has been ok for me so far. HW may have fixed it for you under warranty, not sure about their policy. Thanks a lot for watching👍

[@robbabcock_]

Good stuff! I don't like haversacks, just hate having stuff hanging off one strap and smacking my side/legs but the contents look great. Perfect dayhiking kit for temperate climates.

[@Woodswalker1965]

I understand that, sometimes it makes more sense to carry a small daypack instead. Good point!

[@billyprendergast6631]

YOUR living the dream my friend,proving once again that health is wealth.The haversack you have is similar to my game bag,I carry a Mora companion knife in my game bag for field dressing Deer and rabbits and on my belt a Buck Lite knife and the leatherman charge.The haversack I do have are Wenger Swiss made and very sturdy.Question one knife choice Enzo trapper or Tops knife that you used in one of your videos.Stay safe my friend.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks very much, sounds like you have a solid kit brother. The Tops Bob and the Trapper are very different knives. I would put the Bob in the bushcraft/survival category with the Enzo being more of a traditional bushcraft knife. The Tops is more robust . Hope that helps, both are great but different. Wade

[@billyprendergast6631]

Thanks for your informative reply Wade I think I'll purchase the BOB looks like a great knife.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Let me know how you like it bro!

[@ALOutdoors]

I have the identical one its a great piece of gear

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks for stopping by Al!

[@MaffTUK]

If i was to tell you i've just packed my kit to do a very similar vid over the weekend you would either call me a lair or copy cat, but seriously i just have.. only your gear is far better than mine, I'm roughing it with an old Claymore mine haversack, I even packed the shemagh. I will have to give you a shout out now so they can watch your vid and see how it should be done :-) I do however have the stainless Nalgene and nesting cup, there is something about nesting kit that gives me that warm fuzzy feeling LOL great vid and coincidence, regards Matt

[@Woodswalker1965]

Maff T UK Cant wait to see your kit Matt, the more the merrier buddy! Lots of great options out there for haversacks and I fully agree with the warm and fuzzies lol👊

[@ldsphotodude49]

Seems very adequate. I'd only suggest a sil fabric poncho. They weigh very little and are very compact. A poncho will protect you from the weather should it rain or snow or if for some reason you can't get back you can use it for shelter.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Good idea Gary! Thanks for the input my friend!

[@shresko79]

excellent video! I have been looking at Malcolms haversack lately and this vid was very helpful! I was waiting for a darker color to be in stock, but I like the ranger green! Could you tell any info on your possible pouch? thank you

[@Woodswalker1965]

shresko79 Hey thanks very much, glad you liked it. The Ranger Green is actually a great colour. My possible pouch is covered in My Bushcraft Kit video kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5nQpKGhZ7SafJo All the basics including sharpening kit, flashlight etc are found in it. I appreciate your support and let me know how you like the haversack! Wade

[@HowlingDingoBushcraftChannel]

Good vid...

[@Woodswalker1965]

Howling Dingo Hey thanks a lot brother!

[@robnance1683]

Good video and a nice haversack pack setup! My original haversack is a buckskin haversack and empty weights about 3.5 lbs or my USMC shouder bag 1.2 lbs. I have had both bags for decades and they work great in the field. I got a light weight .6 lb pathfinder school oilskin haversack bag & with 5 C's kit for Christmas and it works great in the field and is water proofed. I added a oval leather patch to the sholderstrap for comfort and Velcro strip to flap to keep it closed and now it's perfect. The Hidden woodsman haversack you have looks awesome and well made. I have been wanting to buy one that don't look overly militarily tactical for when I am in town but I don't want it to stand out like a sore thumb the woods. How do you like this hidden woodsman haversack bag for quality, cost, comfort and that won't stand out in the woods?

[@Woodswalker1965]

Rob Nance Hey Rob! I own a few haversacks myself and did a lot of research before buying this hidden woodsman haversack and Im very happy with it. They are not cheap but worth the few extra dollars I believe. 1000d cordura is bombproof already and Malcom doubles up with 500d ! Its great in the woods, rugged and even sheds dirt and moisture. Its at home travelling or around town. Good all around investment. Keep in touch and if you do buy one let me know how you like it, and mention my name to Malcom 👊. Take care friend!

[@robnance1683]

Thanks for your speedy reply and input woodswalker 1965! I will tell Malcolm at hidden woodsman about you when I order his hidden woodsman haversack and how I like it. Thanks brother and keep up the good work!

[@Woodswalker1965]

+Rob Nance Thanks brother👊!

[@Nosfaratuu]

Nice video. Great stuff but I have to just point this out. Pretty much in the first segment of the video. The tree in which you stand by is whistling at us.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Haha , the woods are alive! Thanks for watching 👍

[@JohnnyPrepBushcraft]

Great video mate I see you are one of the lucky ones with the two straps

[@Woodswalker1965]

Ah yes Malcolm has changed the design hasn't he? I'm sure it's still a great bag. Thanks for watching my friend!✌

[@sosteve9113]

Nice kit,you can go a long way with it Atb Steve

[@Woodswalker1965]

+so steve Yessir you can! Thanks very much👊

[@ScottOut-n-About]

Great kit, great video!!

[@Woodswalker1965]

+Scott S. Outdoors Thanks buddy!

[@chriswalker7491]

I bought one the stitching is really bad but I love the bag

[@Woodswalker1965]

I've heard a few complaints about stitching actually, my version was really well done I thought. Thanks a lot for watching and commenting my friend!👍

[@Gregwisconsin]

Great video...Thanks for producing it. Questions: [1] where did you obtain that grill? [2] you made its case! Wow. Is that a skill mere mortals could practice? And [3] that little green double pouch with your sharpening ditty in it; where did you find it? I like those short hikes after a stressful week of scratching out a living; and I also really like hot tea in the woods. Have a great weekend and your reply would be most appreciated.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Macro Microbe So thanks for watching, I'll do my best to answer all your questions. I bought the grill here.Bushcraft Grill - Welded Stainless Steel High Strength Mesh (Campfire Rated) - Expedition Research LLC, USA www.amazon.com/dp/B06XTZ6MXD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_oiK0AbFTDX8K6 (Hope the link works) Yes anybody can sew a simple case but the grills now come with a case so not really necessary. The small pouch if from eBay. Just do a search for tactical pouches and you will have many options! Hope this helps my friend. Let me know if you find what you need. Wade

[@Gregwisconsin]

Woodswalker 1965 Link worked fine. Vielen Dank.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Macro Microbe Bitte!

[@MarionRobinsonIV]

Man.. I like how your sheath is set up.. Who designed it?

[@Woodswalker1965]

Marion Robinson IV Ya I love that sheath too. It's a Sagewood Gear Deluxe Scout. It was made to fit a Tops Bob but it will fit other knives I have as well. Thanks for checking out the video!

[@spider5001]

Hey Wade🙂 Just bumming through KZbin and I noticed your video. I have a forest ruck coming from HW this weekend. Do you still use your haversack?

[@Woodswalker1965]

Hey buddy, yes I do. The HW Forest Ruck looks pretty amazing let me know your thoughts!

[@rgjohnson3rd]

The pathfinder mug and lid. Who makes it?Where did you get it from?

[@Woodswalker1965]

Ray Johnson Its available from www.bushcraftcanada.com www.lostwildoutdoors.com or from The Pathfinder store. Thanks for watching!

[@quercus417]

Enjoyed your video, nice kit but mushrooms hunting goes on year round. Thank You.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks for watching. 👍

[@sgtNUKEtroop]

you will find that if you carry two smaller haversacks ... it is a lot more comfortable

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks for the tip!

[@elohansen8971]

Maybe not, this Haversack model - this is a new bigger model. But in INDIANA JONES movies, has he a Haversack.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Haha great movies, that's right, he always carries a haversack😎. Thanks for watching!

[@calafateandresvasquezgonza8216]

Tree in the back at the beggining has a funny face°.°

[@Woodswalker1965]

Lol I'll have to rewatch this one. Thanks for stopping by 👍

[@chriswalker7491]

He also removed the double straps so u cant strap things to the bottom

[@Woodswalker1965]

Good to know! Thanks👍

[@nomadsurvival4952]

The use of haversacks is coming back into use.. Been using them for 40+ years just dont need a those backpacks if you know what your doing.

[@Woodswalker1965]

Nomad Survival Forum Thanks, Im beginning to realize that. I appreciate the input👊

[@thebigfellar7178]

Hey nice video. I see why you are eating Ramen noodles ,and spam ,that haversack must be your most cherished item.Are you kidding me! $140.00 for that little haversack? I could get a lot of stuff with 140, WoW !

[@Woodswalker1965]

Hello myf riend, I think there may be a sale on now at Hidden Woodsmen. Try your local military surplus they usually have some really great options. Very well made of course! Thanks for watching ,take care!

[@vikingexperience5089]

Do you know that the tree behind you is watching you ???

[@Woodswalker1965]

I thought something was weird that day!😀 Thanks for watching!

[@NatesOutdoors]

Very cool kit,now see that's awesome, I subbed, I have a channel myself check it out if you like,I love when the woods are quite,no matter hot or cold I can go to sleep lol and again thanks for taking the time to share this

[@Woodswalker1965]

Nathanial's Adventures Thanks for your kind words and for the support brother. I will be checking out your channel for sure. Cheers

[@NatesOutdoors]

Woodswalker 1965 thank you very much,and I really appreciate it,and ur more than welcome

[@carlbullers4486]

Am I watching an infomercial?

[@Woodswalker1965]

Just sharing my overview on a piece of gear I purchased .

[@petrosspetrosgali]

I don’t know...almost all of their stuff looks way overpriced. I can get a like new ALICE frame in town for 50$ after tax and a new rucksack just like the one they have for like 80...

[@Woodswalker1965]

Thanks for your input, some milsurplus gear is a great bargain, absolutely.

[@ulligoschmidt4189]

Why,in gods name,do you need such an amount of stuff for three hours????

[@Woodswalker1965]

ulli goschmidt That's a valid question actually. A short hike for me usually involves starting a fire, making coffee and possibly a light lunch so I used quite a few of the items I brought. First aid kit is a must have item for me as is the classic trio of cutting tools, axe, saw and knife. Many people would consider this kit to be missing many items but I do see how some would think I brought an excess amount of gear. Thanks for watching and I hope this covered your question.👍
