Yes, the Defence 1 is another good option. You can put also that into the Defence 4 if you want to.

And there is an elastic draw string around the hood of the jungle bag that degrades in a couple of years and afterwards it doesn't work properly anymore. Of course its sewn in. If you wash in foreign standard washing machines where you can't control the spin dry speed the thread will pull out...

If something from Decathlon, so surely rather something in green, isn't it? The Solognac equipment is usually the most robust option from Decathlon. We talk here about lightweight jackets though. Apart from the camouflage version they offer it also in plain green...

Where did you get the information from? Their internet shop talks about carbon steel. https://www.hultafors.com/products/knives_and_blades/H0303-heavy-duty-knife-gk/79514

I will miss him.

Vie Sauvage et Survie is smaller than BCUK but very similar. They also have real experts. They tend to write French though, fine if you are Québécois, of course. :) If your Italian is better than your French you can try Avventurosamente. It's pretty interesting because they have to deal with...

https://www.endicotts.co.uk/collections/pouches/products/webbing-pouch-utility-osprey-mk-iv-british-used-graded-m-t-p The utility pouch has additional under the Flap a collar with draw string closure, the bottle carrier hasn't and is slightly larger...

The Sting Generation 2 fits correctly with the British PLCE side pouches, should you be unable to get the original ones. You can stuff your sleeping bag in the issued British bivvy bag to the bottom of the main compartment and on top of that a Snugpak Drisack 8 litres containing your spare...

I own only the OK4. It's a good knife for the price but I think the GK heavy duty is the better deal. The finger guard is too long and the blade too short to serve well for food preparation on a board or table. Otherwise they are absolutely OK and the GK is in my opinion the secret tip No1 if...

So far I understood the Austrian KAZ 75 exists in an older fabric blend and the newer polyester-cotton mix that's used in the newer KAZ 02 / 03. And the beige version seems to be made of 100 % cotton and they even made olive clothing in 100% cotton for dry and hot weather conditions. Obviously...

Perhaps they use a better thread now?

@Laurentius will surely love to get it.

In my experience it doesn't matter so much in real life if you get 50:50 or 60:40 or 40:60 polyester - cotton mix fabric. I suggest to try Solognac Hunting Trousers Steppe 300 and Shorts 100. Regarding the prices I don't understand why people buy Fjällräven clothing. The Solognac stuff above...

Yes, size large is the right one for you. So far I know the Fecza 3 season bag is less padded than the Carinthia Defence 4. In your position I would get both bags. There is no reason to carry a winter bag around in high summer hot weather conditions. The German army issues first only the...

Can you give us a link to it, please?

And here the used ones via Ebay, original, Polish, Spanish, Italian and whatever. I think that you find here civil bought military items if we talk about the originals. I have never seen a Carinthia Observer in a German milsurp shop that was used in the German army before. If they issue it...

I assume that the cheaper versions don't use the gas permeable Goretex that's used in the current Carinthia bivvy bags but just the usual military grade jacket Goretex fabric. In most bivvy bags you have a risk of suffocation, but not in the current Carinthia bags, because here you can actually...

I still use a Samsung X cover 4 because it doesn't break and has a replaceable battery. It does what it should do.
