I think I speak for many in expressing our deepest gratitude for all the work you do. After many years of absence, watching your channel has stoked a renewed interest in bushcraft. Also, your videos on black powder developed another interest and resulting in me buying my first BP revolver. Please, keep up the great work.
...........You always have have the straight skinny on great gear, equipment, and outdoors skills Blackie..... Your reviews are much appreciated...........
I can’t imagine carrying a 10 lb haversack through 10 miles in Appalachia’s without your shoulders feeling the burn. So I’m not sold on this idea. I appreciate the effort in packing this to capacity for a car pack.
Interesting video. Very well designed setup. I currently own and use a hidden woodsmen haversack. Its very durable and well designed. Thanks, I enjoy your videos.
I'm a new subscriber and also from The Great State of Alabama. I enjoy watching your videos and look forward to more. Maybe a good name for this setup would be a "Haveruck".
Nice pack with one flaw. The top flap needs to be wider on top. It might be water repellant but if the sides are sticking out past the flap rain will get in your pack. It wouldn't be hard to fix. Just sew on some material were the gaps are.
Nice haversack build out, finished my homemade leather haversack build and just finishing up a few accessories and I will be posting a video , can't wait till it cools off to get outside its been a rough summer here to.
Great little kit! maybe the poncho would be better near the top of the bag though instead of the bottom so you can pull it out in a rainstorm? just a minor suggestion
Great job showing the pack and your load out Blackie. It is a very well designed and thought out setup for sure. Thank you for sharing all that you do my friend! Take care.
Great looking little pack, i am thinking with the addition of d-rings on the bottom backside of the pack it would be very easy to add some (alice) shoulder straps and use it as a small rucksack too.
I love your thinking behind the haversack. My only and I mean only down side is the sack around my neck and falling in front of me every time I bend over to look at something or wait for a squirrel to come out. That is why I carry a small back pack. What is your thoughts or comments. I would to hear them.
i can use this as a small pack i will demo the skill soon ..its allows the strap to become dual straps and carry like a small ruck sack..video coming soon
I think the thank you needs to go the other way Blackie. It takes hours to get us a 20 minute video. A lot of work that you are willing to do. Also the black powder project you have added, more work. So OK you said thank you to us for watching. Your welcome. But we're getting the better part of this deal. Stay safe. P.S. Add a Kwickclot bandage of some type to your med kit. Then you get to the ER for sure. :)
That's what I'm looking for !!!!! Been camping out of my haversack for yrs That perfect ! Where do I find this beauty and or the other one the 1858 ? Be good brother
Good video as always. Like the haversack. I live in a desert area where trees suitable for hanging a hammock are few and far between. Therefore I need some sort of a ground pad or mat. If you were to carry this haversack in my area, what would you use for a mat?
What type of camo shirt is that an where did you get them, just realized it has zipper pockets. Great vid an looking at options for hunting in a haversack or small daypack, thx.
"just curious Blackie, I know from personal experience in my youth, with your "beloved Alabama" that the Mo-skeeters are big enough and of such a plenteous number as to practicably dreen a person dry of blood over night. bug dope or not so my question is do you find it necessary to put up a mo-skeeter net? I know that I do in my adopted Georgia, and while i'm askin, let me also ask, how big is this mesh hammock I hear you talking about?"

Your explanation of layers gave me a hard-on. Great job. The military has taught this for years. Happy new subscriber here.

Good kit set up. I like those double D rings better than anything plastic. Can't wait for cooler temperatures to set me free. Atb.

interesting concept Blackie Thanks for sharing!
glad you liked it brother..i am doing field testing now ..but thus far its a real winner..looking forward to a fall scout with it..safe journeys
Looks great Blackie
I would probably add a shoulder pad for the weight you're carrying. It can be a "Bee with an itch" to carry after many klics on the trail.
Blackie that is an amazing set up I'm going to watch the video again about the mesh hammock I need to add that to my day Woods kit

That's a very nice set up blackie. Lots of thought and planning went into the haversack. That obvious. Great job, hats off to you and Jason.
Great video. Lots of good stuff here.. Thanks, Blackie

This looks like just the thing for me Blackie. Another great video. Thank you!

I love the haversack.....!!! The best scout pack out there IMO....!!
i will be doing field tests with it but as it looks now i think you are right

As always another very informative video. Keep up the good work, and safe journeys!
i enjoy what you do

Looking forward to seeing how it works out for you. I'm using an old WW2 designed navigators bag for my hunting bag at the moment.
Another great video Blackie... I really enjoy your videos.. Keep them coming... ps Im also a pocket knife addict..
Thank you
I'd like to see you do some hunting loadout with that haversack and then perhaps some hunting videos.
i have a trip or two planned for the cool of the yr we will try and get a few of those posted..safe journeys
Thanks for the video.
Thanks for sharing !

Love your hat where you get it ?

Blackie, is open carry legal almost anywhere in the woods?

Thumbs Up!

Great vid
