Leather bushcraft pack MKII

[TinkyPete]

Awesome as always with your work, love the fine details to a very practical bit of kit.

Gorgeous.
How much does it weigh?

Empty it weights around a kilo. surprisingly light

 

[Dreadhead]

It simply is beautiful!!
High level craftsmenship and very pleasing to the eye!

I just hope the antler will hold. No idea about its strength.

It's stronger than you think, I use it for buckles and clasps all the time. I'll be testing my packs out more over the next year to see how the buckles hold up

 

[Thoth]

That is absolutely stunning work!

Just a thought. Wouldn’t it be great to get a New Year’s Eve post every year to see how the packs doing. I think you’ll have a task for life Hamish

Great idea, will look even more stunning as the leather 'weathers' over the years.

Absolutely beautiful. The best things always seem to come out of Scotland

I don't know, it's kind of ugly. I think you send it me while you make something truly beautiful...

In seriousness, it is truly a beautiful ruck! Have you though about maybe adding a small wooden frame?

I'll not argue with that

I made a wooden fold out chair frame for this pack: https://bushcraftuk.com/community/index.php?threads/leather-rucksack.147019/

But i'm happy keeping this second pack lighter for shorter trips. for now anyway or perhaps i'll just make another!
