Karrimor Sabre 30, Any good?

[R.Lewis]

Sure some peoples on here must have experience of the Sabre 30. So is it any good? I want a tough, versatile bag for EDC. To take stuff to and from work with occasional Bushcraft related stuff possibly.

Its either something like this or really old school canvas that I shall mod the hell of!

I think youv already worked it out mate old school canvas and mod it. Probably cheaper and hours of practical fun

Get both.

Combined cost (£15 GR1 German Army from Endicotts, Sabre £50 from here http://www.safetyequipmentcentre.co...y/load-carriage/karrimor-sf-sabre-30-rucksack)

The Sabre sacs are all top notch.
I have used a Karrimor sacs since the 80's and love them (PRI stuff recently, not the Sportsworld incarnations ).
Hot Ice being the most used over the years (basically an old school version of the current Sabre 30).

As for a German Army type canvas number? Why not, I'm sure it's good stuff and just ripe for a bit of DIY.
A project is always a good thing.
