Inspection and maintenance of a WWII swiss army backpack

[@stevezytveld6585]

Brilliant design. Especially when you consider when it was created, and yet the level of care that went into it as an object is truly remarkable. Thank you for sharing.

Yes, that's what I like about it as well. Every little detail is well thought through, and made entirely by hand. Thanks for watching.

@@whiskeyjakab Just out of curiosity - are you planning on seeing if you can replicate the pack? Horsehair leather could be substituted for another variety of veg or chrome tan?

Looking at options on those packs currently. Would love to know the base weight of the pack. Planing on doing a light aluminium frame build with this or a salt and pepper rucksack for backpacking.

[@jezzamatic]

where did you get that amazing backpack?! and is there a place that I can get one from??

[@whiskeyjakab]

I got it in Switzerland, there are always a few being sold on online marketplaces. I don't know if you can find it anywhere else.
