Sorry about the baby sounds. He just learned how to climb anything and everything, and he can't understand why we won't let him climb the bookshelf.

Nicely done, Tim! The 15L and KUKKARO combo is perfect.
@Tim_Keys21 күн бұрын
By far my favorite combo, but right now I am also playing with making the kukkaro into a hip belt. I almost got it, I just need to make it less complicated.

#1. These videos are great. Well thought out, organized, informative, thorough, comprehensive, insightful, and no nonsense. This is quality and expensive gear --most people can't put hands on them without significant investment and you won't find them at your local sporting goods. You save us time, trouble & greenbacks. Outstanding work. Thank you. #2. What are your thoughts on connectivity & weight distribution between the Jaakari XL, Kahakka 25L, Askare as a multi-week/daypack/commuter rig for long term international travel in urban and field environments. #3. I've seen the JXL & K25 connected via D-hook. Seems stable but lacking the ability to cinch for flexibility with optimal load distribution. I could be wrong. Of course, the more load you add horizontally, the less stability and more sway you're going to have. Economically speaking, seems better to add weight in the coronal plane before the para-sagittal plane in most cases (up. down, & sides vs farther behind you).

Thank you for the kind words my friend, I'm just doing what's right by the community. And as for your setup, I think I would have to know more. In my current thinking I would advise breaking some of that size and weight up among a team or a sled. Are you moving primarily in summer or winter conditions? No matter what, personally, I would not plan to start and stop a long journey with that same setup lasting me the whole way. Maybe even look at waypoint gear drops with friends or local sporting businesses.

For that beaver tail it might really be the best shape and size, I probably should have spent a little bit more time with that one
@yoinky22 күн бұрын
Using the compression straps for the small pouch was pretty creative. May have changed my perspective on the bag Also come to realize you can use the 4 compression g hooks to possibly strap down the 4 corners of a chest rig and use that as a beavertail or quick reload

That 4 l pouch in the side pocket would make a great trauma/medical "throw" kit. Easy to get out and easy to carry separately.

Very true, I can see this being an amazing medic's bag. A full trauma throw kit on each side, with some kind of pull-out insert system for the main bag body... I think I might have some emails to write now....

I hailed you as a genius when I saw the bungee securing the 4l pouch in the side pouch! Kahakkas keep on impressing the more we tinker with them. Great vid dude :) P.S. the axe loop came. It fits my axe, fits my skrama, AND fits my weeding hoe. You know how long I've been looking for a good way to holster that damn hoe?! Cheers once more, bless you mate.

The zippers on Kukkaro are great, from Kroko in Belgium. They are trusted among military, fire, law enforcement, and others who need to put a lot of trust in a European made product.

Tim, when you mention *"female buckles"* in all of these videos related to the many aspects of the 15-liter and 25-liter Kahakka packs, are you referring to the *"Savotta 2M WB SR PALS-mount, 25mm buckles,"* or to some other type of female buckle? "*Specifically, what exact female buckle is installed onto the top face of the Savotta 4-liter Side pouch that you demonstrated turning into an over-the-shoulder go-bag/mini-haversack with the addition of a short length of 25mm webbing that has a male buckle on both ends"* *"Thanks for the very informative video as well as graciously answering all of mine, as well as everyone else's questions!"*
@Tim_Keys21 күн бұрын
If there was a "correct" answer I would definitely let you know, but when I say stuff like that I really mean anything you find from Savotta. Most of their available buckles are compatible and you can find your preferred method after the idea is planted. I'm just here for ideas, not answers.

Is the MPP foam mat too small for the 25L Kahakka or would it be a good addition to the pack? Would the S size backpack cover be enough or should I get the M version? Really nice overview videos, I watched all of them :)
@Tim_Keys10 күн бұрын
Thank you friend :) And the MPP foam mat will be perfect, it is the same width but just slightly shorter in length to the foam pad that comes with the Kahakka. As for the rain cover, definitely go medium. That way you can expand and attach.
