The buckles , fabric and thread is all Mil grade made in the USA. The padding i used on this pack is the same thickness as the usgi molle assault pack. Its not bulky and weights less. Alittle wider and with the sternum strap the ruck will ride comfortably. Thank you for the review! I hope the rucksack serves you well on your trips to the woods.
all Hidden Woodsmen gear rocks and the prices aren't ridiculous, especially if you catch one of his sales. I like this pack....a battle belt with some pouches attached would compliment it well....
Thanks for the good honest review. I wanted the Day Ruck but he isn't making those now so I was thinking if getting one of these. I new to Hidden Woodsmen but already a huge fan. I absolutely love my haversack and it's become both my day hike bag of choice as we as my edc bag.
Nice pack, i would like to get one. I have the Hidden Woodsmen's Possibles pouch, like all of Malcolm's gear. Trying to get a little at a time with my budget.
Are the side pockets too small for the bottle and a nesting cup or do you opt to not carry a nesting cup with your bottle? Looks just a little too small to me.
Looks like a good pack. Have always wanted to try Hidden Woodsman gear. Will probably start with the Haversack. Big question all the cookware and various stoves where was the food??
I own an Alice and a Canadian Military Pack which are both lacking in a feature I consider indispensable. To access your pack one must have a YKY Zipper that opens the main compartment in a clamshell fashion without having to empty the pack from the top. Your pack is a quality product, but like mine, are impossible to access to retrieve an item at the bottom without taking everything out. My two cents.
Glad I waited on getting the day pack because I’m liking this one a lot more! Only thing I really don’t understand is why didn’t he make the side pockets just a little bit bigger just so you can fit a nesting cup in there with the bottle. Still not a deal breaker for me though. Thanks for the video!
River Rat thats not true. You can fit a nesting cup with nalgene bottle. The pack is only so wide to sew a pocket on the side. The pocket is the widest i could go.
@@livingsurvival ya look at a canvas cutter bed roll expensive but for a night out you bring your home with you and the wool blanket nice and comfy and warm
I the fist to watch and that seems fitting for two Michigan boys , you make some good videos . Been subscribed from the beginning. ,,,, more cold weather clothes bug out type stuff would be nice
I like the look of the pack and the quality is there , but The pack would not be a good choice for anyone living in the humid tropical areas . The back isn't designed for any airflow and I don't think I would like to walk 10 or 15 miles with the pack loaded .Just have to leave it to you gents who live in the cold , pity .

Malcolm, can you put lashing tabs on the flap upon request?
Otis010707 sorry, i dont modify or make customs anymore.
@@Otis010707 pretty sure you could find someone to do it in your area of the world.
I just got my hands on one of the day rucks. It’s an awesome pack! Malcolm makes top notch gear
Yes he does. I have had on one of his haversack for 2 years now, and not a problem
Joe sent me. I've always loved your gear and I hike at least 2 days a week with my son and dog.

Randy Yeager thank you randy!!
@@mrbluesteen Just being honest, no need to thank me. Thank you for putting out great gear!
I ordered a mtp one last week. I think your the first TH-cam vid on one of these packs. Thank you sir! Nice to see you crankin em out again
Nice loadout! Malcom sure knocked it out of the park with this pack. Awesome profile bag.. Ben is that the new Lester River Bushcraft shirt?
No, it’s a wool rich shirt.
Great pack
Awesome pack and great gear load!!! Always look forward to the videos Ben!
It looks like a German mountain rucksack with modern day materials and feature.. Classic and Modern

Looks a lot like my Alpini canvas pack but much lighter. Good review. It looks great for woodsman or overnighters, as you said.
Thanks for watching.
Love The Hidden Woods Man gear, the quality is great and 💯 made in USA!!!
This bag is near top of my list. For those with experience, what sets it apart?
Nice pack, i would like to get one. I have the Hidden Woodsmen's Possibles pouch, like all of Malcolm's gear. Trying to get a little at a time with my budget.
Probably my favorite pack of his to date
Looks great. Reminds me of a higher quality LL Bean ruck. Are the side pockets pass through (behind) for hiking stocks, rods, axes, saws, etc?
No.
Do you recommend for a wilderness survival kit a maxpedition falcon 3 or a hidden woodsmen forest rucksack?
will those side pockets accept a USGI style canteen or the heavy cover canteen?
Are the side pockets too small for the bottle and a nesting cup or do you opt to not carry a nesting cup with your bottle? Looks just a little too small to me.
Looks like a good pack. Have always wanted to try Hidden Woodsman gear. Will probably start with the Haversack.
Big question all the cookware and various stoves where was the food??
What’s the sit pad you use?
How does it compare to the L.L. Bean Continental Rucksack?
Greaat review! Been waiting for something in between his other two packs!
Thank you ben!
Love the(my) Haversack! Carry my Ammo in it.
Gotta get the Ruck.
Great first glance!!! I recently got the Day Ruck with side pouches. Shoulda waited!!! 🤦🏾♂️
greetings from Argentina
Definitely excellent.
Great backpack

That’s a good idea.

Malcolm Coderre Great!!! Thanks for letting me know from the video it just seemed like it would be to tight I guess.
Kinda wish it was large enough for the titanium canteen
Steven the sides are wide enough to add that size pocket. I tried it but it looks funny
That's a sweet pack for sure .I might look in to one
I cant wait to get one of these packs. It is exactly what I've been wanting. Malcolm @thehiddenwoodsmen does amazing work
Joe sent me! Love the pack!!
you can do that with a canvas cutter bed roll (bivy) for sleeping
You mean instead of the wool blanket?
@@livingsurvival ya look at a canvas cutter bed roll expensive but for a night out you bring your home with you and the wool blanket nice and comfy and warm
Joe sent me, looks good 👍
I'm looking at this or the Frost River Isle Royale
Would you want to sell this pack?
Lol compass with a mirror on it in case you need to see your face? OR is it to signal for help
Both. Never gotten something in your eyes?
@@livingsurvival love it! Thanks for the response. Love the content. Good work!
