I'm with DD99 on this one the Jääkäri 20L is an excellent daypack, all of the kit I've seen from Savotta is top quality.

Folders: synthetic makes more sense so you can really give it a good submerge and clean in soapy water. Fixed blades: not sure why but for me natural materials go with carbon steel and synthetics with stainless.
