you'll be lucky matey! i ended up forking out the cash for mine just before xmas after looking on here for weeks. well worth the price though!
Hi guys. Norway calling.
I've been using different Jervenbags since -96. Both civilian and military use. One of these actually saved me from hypothermia during a winter exercise a few years ago.
My absolute favourite is the "Hunter". I find the size perfect for my kind of use. Can be used as a sleepingbag on its own or outside your regular sleepingbag depending on temperature.
I always carry it with me and also keep it in my car on longer drives.
This really is a multipurpose product. Just love it!

i have the jerven original, no thermal liner. added some paracord loops to the brass grommets and its perfect. a truely awesome bit of kit that i wish i had got years ago. tarp, sleeping bag, shooting hide, storm bothy, wind break, poncho all in one. if i need to use it properly as a sleeping bag i will sleep on the diagonal then i can stretch out. as for condensation, its not a problem too much for one night and if i am ouf for longer then i figured a US poncho liner ot UK army jungle sleeping bag will do the same as the +£100 Jerven liner that you can buy seperately.

if one care about price Helsporth has started to make a copy (http://www.helsport.no/fjellduk-pro), which might be of interest to some.
I don't think Arktis did a massive run of them. I saw them on eBay and put the link on here, didn't buy one, the few they had sold out quick. I bought it off here after doing a bit more reading about it. They have the web store but then have a military/police/bulk order site. The Jerven bags are not there but they may do an order if there was enough guarenteed interest. You'd need to contact them, the store site is;

Oh, and unless the "tarp" aspect of the jerven is essential to you have a look at the Hilleberg Bivanorak. I was somewhat sceptical, but after trying one our for real I am a convert.
I'm afraid not, I'm a little too busy this evening and away until Thu tomorrow. I'll post something Thu if you're still interested.
think this is the original selling i bought mine off
