any space left !!!!
whats the weight

 

[greensurfingbear]

just picked up the same. Only actually worn mine where it when running its good place for keys etc.

 

[offroadmick]

I've never weighed it.... but it is quite heavy....lol I'm never far from my jeep anyway so its no problem, but I hate to leave anything behind!

 

[offroadmick]

I cut the 'bum bag' belt off mine... just carry it like a bag... It gets well annoying hanging round your backside and removing the belt gives more room inside.

That's a set up and then some! You'll be ready for anything. I think you need more knives in it though

 

[Johnnyboy1971]

Don't you think all the blades are a little overkill. Other than that nice setup

 

[offroadmick]

I remember being told that one is none... so i carry a back up or 2, or 3...lol

 

[BigM]

I lost count at six knives. Why so many?

 

[maddave]

Don't you think all the blades are a little overkill. Other than that nice setup

8 blades & a saw are giving you weight that you could use for other stuff (food/more 1st aid stuff etc) I'd be tempted to keep the Fallkniven F1 and the Victorinox hunter and get rid of the rest

 

[Johnnyboy1971]

I know where your coming from but looks odd if your stopped.

 

[toilet digger]

are you hunting tigers? :yikes:

apart from the 5673326 knives, an enviable setup.

 

[offroadmick]

ok ok....!!! I guess I do have too many knives.... I don't even use most of them... I'll strip it down abit... Keep the f1 fixed blade... and the sak... so i'll get rid of the bushman and the boker... I know you're right...I just like them...

 

[Johnnyboy1971]

It's only me but like one for heavy use one for delicate work and one for food preparation. Also a multitool but don't class that as a blade.

It is a lot of knives but if you're happy carrying them that's all that matters mate!

Thats what i thought.... carving, heavy work, food...... boker, f1, sak and a multi tool..... so just chuck out the bushman then...

Dear OffRoadMick,

This is what you and your knives will look like if you dont get off this site and pay me some attention.

Lots of love

If you really want to be prepared, forget the snug pac.

Hide all the knives and get a stab vest pronto.
