Tool Roll Comparison // 2.17.23

Latest video:
• Bartering Bard's Garag...
Tools Rolls. Love them or hate them- they're useful in some circumstances. Rolls & bags that roll up are my preferred way to store tools that I need on the go.
In this video, I walk through the features I like and dislike on the tool rolls I own, as well as briefly show the types of tools I carry in them.
I am not sponsored by anyone. I just like tools & enjoy helping the next guy in hopes of saving people a few bucks by not buying a tool they aren't happy with.
Cheers 🍻

My son gave me the same Ryker bag. Been using it for about a year and a half as a professional marine tech, getting in and out of engine compartments, tossing it around. It's held up beautifully. I'll buy another one in a heartbeat.

[@gravityman5529]

Always remember the double facing tool rolls can invert along their center line and sit on the rim of a 5 gallon bucket

[@TheBarteringBard]

Good tip here, thank you for sharing!

[@sasquatchrosefarts]

​@@TheBarteringBardharbor freight and home Depot sell tool bags of many sizes for not much money.

[@ronswanson9446]

i have had the ryker bag for 3 years, use it everyday on construction sites, zero problems and is still like new. Now its the quality of Atlas but to say its junk is wrong.

[@MarkBrockman]

You gotta remember that he ordered it off Amazon, it could be a counterfeit.

[@Druguana]

Got mine for $16 on Amazon...You can't beat that price with a baseball bat. He said it has cheap stitching. No problem I'm taking mine when I get it to my local seamstress. I'm going to let her double the stitches to make it stronger.👀

[@RFRancois08]

It’s cheap but he uses it almost everyday. Thinks something will go wrong but after a few months nothing has gone wrong yet. Sounds like money well spent.

[@TheRealKennethReid]

The bash on Ryker does seem pretty unreasonable. I mean: the regular one is 1000D Polyester, and if he had gotten the PRO for practically the same price it's made with 1680D Polyester. In terms of tear resistance and durability, THAT material is atleast equivalent to 1050D Nylon/Cordura used to make the Atlas 46 products. It won't stretch as bad or absorb water as easily either. So there are plenty of pros with the Ryker. Dollar per dollar it offers more value than the Atlas 46. You ALWAYS get what you pay for. So take cost out as a factor and of course Atlas 46 wins. But I can buy 6 Ryker Pros for the price of one Yorktown. I'll personally take the 6 Ryker Pros and build assorted toolboxes, a networking kit, a firearms kit, and maybe even a fishing kit. Fun fun fun.

[@outdatedgear5036]

Found this video because I was interested in the rygar. I think people are buying it because it's the first item on Amazon that comes up. Thanks for the heads up.

[@DNNYBOY-gi3gi]

Ended up buying three tool rolls to compare, use, and give as a gift off Tractor Supply. Thank you for the video!! I was thinking about the Ryker bag and skipped it, bought a Wolervine, DC cargo, and CLC. All great options for the beginner.

[@solb101]

Nice to see how you roll. Would be great to hear your advice on a minimalist all purpose toolkit.

[@TheBarteringBard]

Howdy! Apologies for the late response. Perhaps that will be my next video. 😉

[@luchaDor]

Awesome Rampside! Thanks for the tool roll info!

[@TheBarteringBard]

You bet!

[@apostema]

Very helpful. Thanks.

[@heightskings6693]

I used to have the ryker bag for electrical service calls .. thing was a beast , had 2 and one point but now I have a truck so I just use a cart now … but their not junk … I’d back it 100%

[@EnriqueReyesJrREALTOR]

Thanks for the comparison, & your opinion. Peace out. :-)

[@keithclark8030]

Great review! I do like the smaller roll with the socket option.

[@Auto-Bots.Custom.Detailing]

Love roll bags, there isn’t enough comparison videos in this area…as a fellow bike rider.. I love tool rolls, but no one compares them. Thanks for the video

[@georgea.9684]

Thanks for saving me from the Ryker. Much appreciated. 👍🏻

[@robbiewilliamson357]

I love my rolls. I first saw tool rolls when my boss bought one from Duluth (nicest one ever. Prob expensive) i have 2 kobalts, 2 harbor freights and a grease monkey socket roll) i use all of mine for sets.. like all of my combos, gear wrench combos, flex head gear wrench combos and offsets are in their respective rolls. Never thought of doing the way you do. Thanks for the content🤙🏻

[@TheBarteringBard]

Happy to make it! Thanks for sharing. I'll have to check out the Duluth & the grease monkey rolls.

[@robbiewilliamson357]

@@TheBarteringBard i had just bought the grease monkey roll before commenting. When i got home i remembered that the crecent pass through socket set i bought came with no case and a couple of junky plastic socket holders.. the grease monkey roll was just right. Absolutely awesome quality for $9.99(northern tool.) Unfortunately it doesn’t look like they have much else..

[@RandomGuy-qm3mg]

great video! Fun to see the Corvair in the back, my wife had a Greenbrier window van back in the 70's. The model you have is really rare as I'm sure you know, didn't see that one very often even back in the late 60's and early 70's. Have you checked out the Bucket Boss tool roll? Model 74004 for 40-50 bucks looks interesting. I have a tool bag by them that seems pretty well made. oops, just watched your tool roll #2 video! never mind about doing more, all the options you'd be doing them forever. Good looking Monza!

[@TheBarteringBard]

My dad loved Corvans a lot. He had several, but his best find was the 62 load side he restored about a decade ago. He regretted selling it every day.. and searched for years until he found the 63 Rampside Deluxe that is now mine to cherish. I've heard good things about the bucket boss. I hope one day to do an all out "Tool Roll Comparison 3", but that will require some saved pennies piling up for a little while. 😉 Thank you so much for watching!

[@killstreaker57]

great comparison and in depth review!

[@bubbagump9418]

as an alternative to the Ryker bag, i got a bucket Boss tool Roll, work in maintenance engineering in a factory, I give it no love and its held up very well. highly recommend goes everywhere with me.

[@__azzzul__]

What would you recommend for a roll tool bag that can hold concrete mason tools? I have to travel to work for concrete and I can’t leave my tools at the job site

[@alexrossi-dm2rs]

Gee Mo, Gee Mo, Gee Mo !! Love the set up!

[@TheBarteringBard]

Gets better and better every week! Haha

[@AnthonyK_34]

Bro what I purchased that Rhyker bag for my dad cause he does a ALOT of offroading with jeep clubs. And he uses THE LIVING SHIT outta that bag. It's been thrown around, dragged on the ground, completely submerged in water, left out in the 100°+ texas heat, covered in mud, and pressure washed and it still looks great. Easily the best gift I gave my dad cause of how often he uses it

[@TheBarteringBard]

I'm glad to hear someone out there is happy with the Ryker! The person I gave mine to seems to like it as well, but it just didn't impress me for $40-45.

[@Wriggle-ff9gq]

Do you have a link to the atlas46 mini? I can’t find one with the storage on the other side

[@apostema]

I'm looking for a motorcycle kit. This is a big help.

[@MRBIG-lg9zl]

You do realize that unlike the sun, interior lights can be dimmed enough to not require sunglasses????

[@beanlimit_69]

I still need to get the harbor freight bag for the civic! And probably a second for the crv.

[@TheBarteringBard]

I think you mean the Tractor supply bag 😉 We will get you set up.

[@RFRancois08]

Funny thing is I will actually get the Ryker because of his confirmed pros and suspected cons.

[@jessidiaz1891]

Sorry bro but just saying “it feels super cheap” is simply subjective. The thing is sitting there looking like he just pulled it out the amazon package. The Ryker bag is going on 3 years for me and its holding up perfectly and packed to the gills. Not a surprise there are similar comments backing up the Ryker in the comments section. I’ll buy a 2nd hands down

[@P--O]

Great well made and inspirational video!

[@TheBarteringBard]

Thanks much!

[@mrbjay5443]

Try the Mosko Moto Fatty Tool Roll. Best on the planet. Hasa waterproof case for a nominal fee

[@pablosedillo9368]

Where did you get the Altas 46 roll on sale? I haven’t seen them have a sale

[@TheBarteringBard]

Their website! They ran a 15-20% off coupon around the holidays last year.

[@ktm250xcw]

Wish MAXPEDITION or VANQUEST or even KLEIN made tool rolls.

[@danubus111]

If maxpedition got into tool bags/belts/rolls/bucket caddys, they would take over the market and triple their revenue 😅 I've got several bags around 10 yrs that people think are still new.

[@rainman5587]

I need to convert my RV tool bag to a tool roll so I don't have to pull half of my stuff out to get to stuff in the bottom of the bag.

[@TheBarteringBard]

Happy to make a recommendation if none of these meet your needs. 😉

[@TheDefenderSisu]

I am in the same boat. I just ordered a step22 one to see if it will work for me.

[@Mgoblue2486]

Atlas46!

[@RandyZimmerman-pp5wj]

Nevermind the tools tool sell me the red truck seriously

[@TheBarteringBard]

Pry it outta my cold dead hands. 😉😂🤙

[@kalebloomis8906]

Is that a corvair rampside?

[@TheBarteringBard]

Maybe. 😉

[@TheBarteringBard]

UPDATE: The only tool rolls I still have to date are the Dickies roll & the two Atlas 46 rolls. I use the Dickies roll as a wrench roll, which is it's manufacter's intended purpose. It works fine, but I will not buy another one when this one dies. I will buy something that keeps the wrenches more securely held in place. I use the Atlas 46 mini as my go to tool bag. It lives in my truck and goes with me everywhere I go. This is my MVP Tool storage and I WILL buy another one if mine becomes unrepairable beyond my ability & the warranty doesnt cover the repairs. I will note that it is still in fanastic condition, despite being tossed around on a weekly basis like an ugly step child that continues breaking your mother's favorite china. The larger Atlas 46 is a good roll, but has some flaws that make it unusable for me beyond acting as an extra layer of organization for my overflow tools in the bottom draw of my tool box. I would not buy this roll again if I had a time machine and a vendetta. The clc roll is good, I still recommend it. I actually put together a tool set using mine for my friends younger brother and gave it to him as a gift as congratulations for buying his first project car (a bitchin' 350z). Great budget pick for a person new to tools. Ryker bag sux, and always will. Definitely don't buy one, unless you like overpaying for poorly constructed products made with cheap materials. I gave mine to my brother, not because i don't like him, but because it was good enough to he a temporary bag for him. I intend to buy him a rolling fire roll in the future so we can burn the ryker bag with hellfire like it deserves. Cheers to all, and thanks for watching! 🤘

[@sashaghovanlou8175]

Thanks for the video! Exactly what I was searching around for. Unfortunately it looks like they no longer have your Yorktown mini available anymore and have replaced it with a V2 that I'm not sure I like as much. Any thoughts on their new design? It looks a bit more rigid and doesn't have the third shallower pouch anymore.

[@RFRancois08]

Sounds like the your worst rated bag is still on the clock putting in some work.

[@waredbear]

Corvair?????
