Tuff Possum Gear Minimalist Haversack Loadout

An overview of my haversack loadout I have been running for a few months now. The Tuff Possum Gear Minimalist Haversack is truly a unique and suitable woods companion!
-Edit: This haversack is now known as the "Simple Sack Haversack" available at the Tuff Possum Gear website below

Nice gear Jim. You have a few items that are on my wish list. I had the pleasure of meeting Jayberry last fall at a bushcraft meet up. Unfortunately, I did not have anymore play money when he showed up, so I will be looking for him again at the same meet up this year. - Jeremy

Very cool haversack .... I think they are good for hiking and an overnight. Thanks for the video I got some good gear ideas. 👍 I went n bought some tough possum gear very nice !

[@lalli8152]

Nice set up. I especially like look of the hatchet you are rocking

[@BEARivrman81356]

Loved the vid, bro took a shot every time you said um ! I think you know how that turned out! Love everything minimalist! Many thanks. ATB ……

[@jayberrymiller1146]

[@jimleighty7408]

Absolutely!!! Love the haversack man you do great work!

[@VJLasorsa]

La\\//inci Love me some TuffPossum gear. Jay just sent me a pouch and I can mount externally on my scree pack. Agree with you, TP’s survival scarf 🧣 has a million and one uses. My scarf has been used in all four seasons. Great gear. Jay rocks More videos from you Jim. Also Jim I need to catch up with you in the ADKs some weekend soon. Thx for sharing brother.

[@jimleighty7408]

Hey man thanks for watching! Jayberry is a great guy and he makes some really cool stuff. Ive been getting some good use out of my scarf as well. We absolutely do need to do that!

[@BackcountryKiwi]

Cool gear load out mate! Keep it up!

[@jimleighty7408]

Hey thanks man I appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Good stuff sir👍 I'm a great believer in keeping it real and use the kit before doing reviews on kit . So agree with you 👍

[@jimleighty7408]

I totally agree with you as well, need to use it for awhile first!

[@paradigmshift351]

You can get a 4lb. bag of fatwood at Lowe’s for $7 and a 400 ft. Spool of jute twine at Walmart for under $3. You have plenty of supplies for fire starting right there. Love the video.

[@jimleighty7408]

Very true! I keep a couple bags in my car myself! Thanks for watching

[@sparrowflying864]

Kinda late reply but don't forget the dollar tree. 3 rolls of jute for 1.25

[@benawachiphillips1946]

A good set of stuff

[@Ironic_Jihad]

Thanks for being a good sport about that ,I hereby Subscribe!

[@jimleighty7408]

I appreciate that Daniel! That was too funny!

[@OzMan9989]

Nice. New sub here. One thing to add with that sidearm and axe is a CAT tourniquet. Stay safe bro.

[@ChrisC30]

I agree. If I see a use video or review I'd like the item to be used at least 5 months.

[@derbybushcraftandoutdoors3176]

Great video and new sub here. Do you have a link to the hatchet.

[@mikebox]

Holy hell, finally someone spitting the truth. I use the crap out of my gear before I claim it’s value. I see too many vids of people using just out of the plastic equipment. Obviously never really tested. But they are making vids of how great it is. I don’t have any of the same branded equipment. I try it all. But I’m still carrying that same day pack for over 15 years now. Like seeing a guy with five knives but no IFAK on his belt. As for multi day trips, I also carry a phone charger. I use my camera . And it’s a piece of commo. Try going on someone’s YT and question them about something they are doing or not doing. They get butthurt quick. Being criticized is a chance to learn. Great little video.

[@davethewelder1]

Great video. Good talk on gear. That bag was full.. If that's a day pack, we're is your food load out? Unless your eating dirt and leaves. This is the problem i have with small gear bags, everyone always forgets f9od or snacks for the day or over night. Those items take space aswell. Anyway just my 2 cents.

[@Texo_McKevo]

So is it a haversack or a satchel? Cause they have two a “sack” haversack and a edc satchel

[@weirdowackoify]

great video. just a little constructive criticism. the UHM. UHM. UHM. it makes you sound nervous which you shouldn't be. you're actually really intuitive and make me want to watch. no disrespect intended.

[@jimleighty7408]

I appreciate the feedback! This is kind of new for me so hopefully I will improve with time!

[@yearofthegarden]

nice vid, i'm pretty sure you only carry that possum pillow case because you bought it. use the fabric to sew together a exterior waterbottle pocket and axe hanging slot, something more useful and save the pack space

[@jimleighty7408]

Yea to each their own about the multipurpose scarf, I think it has some useful applications but sure you could definitely do most of those things with a body pillow case although I don't think that a pillow case would hold up as well. Not a bad idea making a hanging water bottle pocket though!

[@Ironic_Jihad]

Tried to go to the etsy link, but it kept showing me pink leather bondage gear! Are you trying to tell us something? Is that how you roll?

[@jimleighty7408]

ahhaha ill change that. Jayberry has his own website now and does not use etsy anymore. That original etsy link is no longer valid now I guess. I posted up his website above now, unless of course you want some fun leather gear as well!

[@JusttJackk]

Im from the UK and we have strict laws so i can carry a axe or a hatchet or a big knife so litterally all i take with me when im out hiking camping or doing bushcraft is a first aid kit the condor otzi neck knife the bear grylls fire start and the victorinox huntsman and if im camping a sleeping bag but great video

[@JohnnyUrbanWoodsmen]

Man that sucks, but can u take/own a hand saw like the bahco laplander?

[@JusttJackk]

@@JohnnyUrbanWoodsmen we can own one but we cant take it out unless your in your own private land so the only saw i use is from my victorinox huntsman but really i shouldn't even be carrying that aha

[@JohnnyUrbanWoodsmen]

@@JusttJackk damn, that really sucks.

[@JusttJackk]

@@JohnnyUrbanWoodsmen thats the uk for you aha

[@macniesful]

This looks great. Please tell me that it is made in the USA.

[@jimleighty7408]

Yes they are! Made in the USA by a standup guy!

[@macniesful]

@@jimleighty7408 wonderful! I have stopped buying products that aren't made in the USA- I wish all would!

[@bigbigbigbigbird]

Say “uhm” one more time. Lol other than that, your video was perfect.

[@PoeticallyCorrect]

That's a Sliky F180

[@jimleighty7408]

Good catch, I mispoke!

[@OlmanEg]

No real woodsman carries a gun 👎

[@jimleighty7408]

That is certainly an interesting opinion! Thanks for the view

[@christopherarnett2851]

If he wants to carry a firearm for protection sounds good 😊 only idiots go into the woods without a firearm for protection period.
