Helikon-Tex Bushcraft Line, Bushcraft Satchel

Perfeito para pequenas incursões de bushcraft

So, I purchased this on a whim as a replacement / alternative to my Condor E&E bag, which is my daily EDC / get-home bag. I wanted something with more internal space for bulky items such as rain jackets and binoculars, but also was able to carry a 32-oz Nalgene water bottle, which I never leave home without. I wanted something lightweight, water-resistant, and practical that did not look too tactical.The Bushcraft Satchel is a great knock-about weekend bag. It takes water, a Maxpedition admin pouch, small first aid kit, poncho and water filter, and still has a ton of room left over for a rolled up raincoat, a performance fleece, some gloves, my iPad and a set of birdwatching binoculars. Just got back from using it as a two-night travel bag. It's fantastic for a quick trip to the bookstore, the liquor store, or out to the swap meet. Really liking it.The good: Carrying capacity is quite large, even with the interior water bottle pockets filled. The Bushcraft Satchel is much roomier than it appears. The water bottle pockets are fantastic, though one has to make sure you use a sleeve if your bottle is filled with ice (so when it sweats, your stuff doesn't get wet!). The outside pocket is quite large and takes an iPad Pro 10.5" just fine (though it's not likely to take a full laptop). Strap is well thought out, and the extra MOLLE on the ends is a nice touch. Integral waist belt is very useful when you've got heavy things. Finally, I find that it's shape, size and straps combine to make it very comfortable to carry. I don't find it getting in my way or sliding off my hip like other bags.The okay: The sheath pouches on the side are gimmicky. If I wanted to carry an axe or a sheathed knife, they are great. But I've yet to find any more...urban... uses for the sheath pouches. Water resistance is better than my E&E bag, but it's nowhere near waterproof. Holds up to a light rain but not a heavy downpour. One of the two ends could really use a third role of MOLLE to make accessory pouches a much tighter fit. Finally, the bag has no internal structure, and is very floppy when empty. This makes using more structured MOLLE pouches on the ends a bit awkward until the bag is loaded.The questionable: I purchased a padded shoulder strap when I bought the bag. Without it, putting any sort of a real load into the bag is going to put strain on your shoulder. Also, the fabric is much lighter weight than I expected (when compare to my Condor E&E bag); I have concerns about its long-term durability. There is very little organization capacity in the bag; it really is a satchel. I get around this with small modular pouches, but if you want a bag that has a spot for everything, this isn't the EDC bag for you. Unlike the E&E bag or much of Maxpedition's stuff, there's no good spot for carrying a concealed pistol. Finally, since this is an imported bag from Europe, the price is very high compared to some of the competition (One Tigris, Condor, etc). That does not bother me, but I can see it being an issue for others.Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase. I'm still using my E&E bag during the week, but this is now my go-to weekend bag, and pretty much goes everywhere with me. I'll revisit this post in a year or so after I've had more time to test the durability of the bag.

I looked for a little bigger bag as a complement to the backpack.+) the size, little bigger.+) very good quality.Recommend?: Yes.Buy again?: Yes.
