Of course, a handy person can add a few pouches too.

Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
Two of those and a compliant donkey and you can go anywhere.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...ucksack-big-person-proves-huge-hit-Japan.html

Lol, I saw this article on my news feed.
I will bet that you will never see anyone with one of these bags, no matter how "fashionable" they are!

I remember back in early 80’s whilst living in Germany they sold a rucksack there which was a bivouac combined. The frame acted as the top end, a zipped sleeve was around it containing the bid I canvas which unrolled into the bivouac. Neat idea but never caught on though.
So a wonderful fashion statement!
Will bring a smile to many people's faces! Hopefully the wearers will realize how naff they look like!

I would love with bushcraft blade they recommend to that iconic backpack.
Must be a Tachi.
A Katana would be to puny and short....

If it cost less, I would get one to use as a gag when I teach wilderness survival classes.

I ask myself whole the time why people discuss in most bushcraft forums 120 litres ruck sacks.
I guess I contain myself round about 93 litres, because that's my weight in kilograms.
Using a good quality, not to light 3 seasons equipment that fits easily in a 34 litres ruck sack, sometimes I think about buying a more compact real ultra light trekking equipment and such a 120 litres military rucksack...
After living "out of the ruck sack" living in the ruck sack would be the next consequent step!

In the days when I did weeks in the Swedish nature, most of the volume of my backpack was filled with food.
Sometimes you need a large backpack.

Off course!
That's why I own a 80+10 litres Fjällräven with additional 10 litres in the side pouches, the last model made in Sweden, incredibly expensive, incredibly good.
I bought it mainly for Scandinavia 3 Seasons and winter Tours in Austria. In Tyrol or around Salzburg it's better to bring some insulation material with you, if you plan to play in the snow.

I find it best to strap the closed cell underlay on top of the backpack.
If that is what you mean with insulation material?

No, I ment, that in december in Tyrol you need several litres of sleeping bags, woolen jumpers, Fleece jackets, merino shirts, spare socks and so on...
I love the folding mat of the Bundeswehr. But that is a thin thing. In winter times sometimes I take two or need twigs under it.
It's very nice for stealth camping, that I carry it in the ruck sack. Wild camping is only tolerated but not officially allowed in Germany.
A lot of people discuss air mats in bushcraft forums. For me an air mat is a comfortable camping equipment for summer hikes and camping grounds, but no bushcraft equipment.
But really: I never carried a rolled cell foam mat on top of my ruck sack! (I only use them in the canoe.) I used most times woolen blankets or sheep skins, lol !
A bit old fashioned perhaps.
