great modular system zed i have 3 paksell bags 1 for my clothes 1 for shelter kit [ pegs ,tarp,ridgline ] and 1 for my food but looking at this system i think is better because your utilizing maximum space so dave will be getting a few orders off me in the near future thanks for sharing love the channel
Honestly Davids work is some of the best out there, i've incorporated a lot his pouches into my own set up and it's transformed the way I pack my gear ~Peace~
Just bought this bag, but with the rocket pouches. I think having seperate pouches, whether that be like the ones you have or I have are essential to make your bag work. I previously had a 65l bag but just with normal side pockets and that really impacts on the main compartment of the bag causing you to have much less room to put things. This bag is an impressive solid piece of kit tbf.
Zed quit reading my mind! I seriously have been looking at this pack all week. Most of your recent videos have been on point for the information I have needed. Thanks for the great content!
My man Josh how goes it, sincerely appreciate your kind words dude and this pack is awesome,. I have the version in brown and have incorporated a lot of Davids pouch system into my own set up whcih has transformed the way I pack my gear. Do let us know if you decide to pull the trigger on this bad boy! ~Peace~
I purchased one of David’s pouches last month and it is very well made. More purchases to follow from me. I’ve been toying whether to get those Karrimor side pouches on his SF for my Predator 45. Like you, Zed, I have 15lt PLCE Bergen ones. Thanks for sharing this chaps 😉👍🏼
Like yourself i've been eying those side pouches up too and after filming this video with Dave i'm most likely gonna pull the trigger on them. Appreciate you watching and for your kind words dude thank you ~Peace~
Zed Outdoors I’m terrible for accumulating tools for work and it’s rubbing off onto my BC life too, Zed 😁 It would be rude not to buy and try wouldn’t it 😊 Look after yourself pal 😉👍🏼 Tim
Hey Zed,,, I’ve done a lot of backpacking on and around the Appalachian trail(from the age 15-45 years old),, 61 now. My first thought was,,, how much did his pack weight,,??? Joshua
Thats awesome to hear John and I say it with complete sincerity that you won't be dissapointed. I've now incorporated a lot of Davids pouch system into my own set up and it's transformed the way I pack my gear now. Do let us know how you get on with incorporating his pouches into your system ~Peace~
Thanks for the video. I own the Karrimor SF 45 but I have the two large side pouches. I really like those side pouches for better organization. Sorry if I missed it, but what specifically are those side pouches you have there in the video? I went out to your Etsy store and did not see them but I saw some of those lovely hand bags that could go into those pouches.
Thoe modular side pouches are made by Karrimor and David makes the smaller pouches custom to fit inside them. Indeed they are very cool and i'll be adding them to my Karrimor too ~Peace~
this is impressive, an excellent backpack, a good set of tools and equipment, with this you can safely go to the forest for a week, or even a month) Zed, thanks)
Amen to that Andrew and the great thing with David is that he actually uses all this gear so it is tried and tested. Stay well my friend and many thanks for watching ~Peace~
I have found over years of experience using all types of military pack and bergans is to have the right size pack in the first place with out all the extra pouches . All these pouches add up in weight which is OK if your a car camper but if you like proper adventures and like to get to places which require a good hike . This is not about being a super lightweight camper but its about enjoying your experience. I used to be the same and have pouches for this and poches for that , kits for my seasoning , brew kits fire kits with everything . It got to the point of being ridiculous and the weight was shocking . I know use the right back pack with out all the clunky extra add ons pouches and unessary pointless gear eg having 100 different ways light a fire , fire kit 🤣. My experience of camping has now changed and my adventures have grown from strength to strength .
Yep. After a few wild camps involving a trek, the SF now get left at home. I went through a period of buying various SF pouches for ‘this and that’, but the weight just got silly. The good thing that comes from all this is that you eventually learn to unzip all the ads ons and pack lighter.....
As with everything there's no right or wrong or one size fits all. Everyone has their own needs as well as preferences. What works for you doesn't necessarily work for me, and vice versa ~Peace~
I just got the Karrimor SF Sabre and it instantly became my new favorite backpacking bag. I did want to know more about the side pouches shown. Is this the SF Predator side pockets being used on the Sabre?
Hi Andy, many thanks and alas I don't remember the exact weight but it wasn't much, even though it seems like the pouches make it heavy which they don't ~Peace~
Thank you kindly Gregory, weight wise there's no set weight that is comfortable to hold. Everyones physique is different, saying that this can hold a lot of kit! ~Peace~
Really like his pack system.. I've been looking for something like this... also trying to decide on what size Sabre, 45 or the 60-100... but my system is a mess. All different brands and sizes, from Osprey, Snugpak, and eberlestock.
Cannot take away from David the fact he does make good pouches, but, packing a rucksack, any rucksack, is not a science it's a personal preference. That Karrimoor is the first bergen I've seen that has a neck narrower than the body, strange concept, those side pouch setups have been out for year's mate, where have you been. All the best Zed. Paul.
Those side pouches were new to me hence when Dave posted a picture of it I was really intrigued. The karrimor definitely has inetersting shape to it but I like it because essentially it's a simple design but with real quality in mind. Hope all is good on your end Paul what with this zombie apocalypse going on ~Peace~
Auscam "tarp". We call it a hootchie. I not got one lol. Mine is 35 yr old n khaki. It is about 2.4 x 1.2m. Designed to be used alone or as a buddy system. Press studs on it so you can clip 2 together to make a larger A frame. Or 3 or 4 or more get enough tou can make anything
This is a great setup, was eyeing up a sabre for a while. Cheers for sharing Zed. I’ve acc just uploaded an external frame system on my channel (as promised) which you might be interested in! Bodhi
Hola, buenas noches... Esa mochila está muy bien configurada, pero creo que solo rutas cortas, porqueyh calculo debe pesar como entre 16 y 18 kilos, caminar en la a 30km o más con ese peso es rudo. Mejor bolsas ziplot, y reducir las ollas y sartenes de tamaño... Saludos
If carrying a folding bucksaw...I would leave the large hatchet at home.....save on weight. I can do better crosscutting with the bucksaw and prefer to carry a large-bladed knife.
You can find out more about the pouches here - www.etsy.com/uk/shop/DavidFriarsShop
Any chance you also got a link (or at least the name) of that backpack ?
cooperation?
I’m following him on Etsy now, thanks to you! When my budget allows, I’ll be purchasing several! Thanks Zed.
The organization of his pack is oddly satisfying. Love it!
lol OCD ASMR :) ~Peace~

Nice vid....weight of pack with all gear?
Hi Andy, many thanks and alas I don't remember the exact weight but it wasn't much, even though it seems like the pouches make it heavy which they don't ~Peace~

Thank you kindly Gregory, weight wise there's no set weight that is comfortable to hold. Everyones physique is different, saying that this can hold a lot of kit! ~Peace~

The 45 is suffice in most cases unless you're packing lots of extra kit, yeh sorting ones kit is a long but worthwhile process! ~Peace~
Oh thats how you bring your axe with a bag. Nice
Indeed yes thats a very cool feature with this pack in particular, and it's a longer axe then you can tuck it under the lid of the pack ~Peace~

Este paquete no es tan pesado como parece, sin embargo, si está transportando largas distancias, entonces sí, desea reducir el peso ~Peace~
Great vid, but don't understand this UK pouch/organizing fetish. The guy is carrying the weight of a extra backpack in pouches.
Appeciate you watching Jay, reg weight the pouches weigh very little to the extent the combined weight is neglible ~Peace~
If carrying a folding bucksaw...I would leave the large hatchet at home.....save on weight. I can do better crosscutting with the bucksaw and prefer to carry a large-bladed knife.
Each to their own dude ~Peace~
