All right, Sean the Silver Fox Bush Craft, and I'm out so I'm going to do a product review. And hope for the sounds improve now, you can hear my review on the Maxpedition Sabercat. This is a single shoulder, its part of that I guess in arrange. It’s an excellent pack ideal for a one or two days scout out in the woods. So what I've done I've take a pack of off and then we’ll go through the various features but I will just show what the pack looks like when it’s on. Okay, so what we’ll do, I’ll take the pack off and to move this pack is really simple actually you just, click this button here the pack falls behind you and off the pack comes. So it’s a really simple quick way to get the pack off, right, the first things you’ll notice on this pack, is one the side here I've got a blanket and now I've got this secured, just with two bungees.
That’s what's it going to see when it’s sat on. Okay, take my hands off ready than now. Now, this pack, as I said is maybe Max, Maxpedition is called the Sabercat; this is actually in the digital come out print. Actually I really like this print, when I've initially sort it I was a big jabirus and I think it looks very nice on the pictures. But actually in the product and itself it’s a really good color. And blends in really well for the local area, so get ready to pay to that, right on this pack, what we can see from the outside, right. On the bottom here, there is a single sling strap and that’s hold in place but its compression strapping the top up here. So if I release that and move that from the bottom, now what this pack contains that’s my tart. And I want to look, wrote and pegs and everything else and then we got the rubber mat that I use to need it on when I went in wet ground.
And also this compression strap comes right all over the top. So in theory there is no reason why you couldn’t put a jumper or a jacket or a bunch or something like that on the top here and you were able to talk. So look at this one pack that it has a huge amount of storage space, okay, now coming to the front, on the front here you got webbing straps the more the attachments you can attached other items or other packs to this pack if you wish. Let's stop from this side, on this side you’ve got actually a very large sleeve, and in mind I got my Hobo Stove set and my water. And actually this sleeve here, you will be surprised just how big that sleeve is in just what you can put in there. On the other side of this pack, I take those bungees off, you got a series of again webbing straps, so you can spread items through them like checking post and stuff like that it could be pretty down inside there. Or again, you can attached other products to that, using the more attachments.
And you'll know it’s actually I put a strap here on my own. This is to serve another compression strap and the reason I done that is when this pack is fully loaded, I did it for my security because I was just concern it’s awful of stretch on the zip. So I put a strap on there for myself just to take some of the load off there and off this it. But to be fair I don’t think it’s necessary to something I've done. Now also on this side you’ve got nylon chord to the side here so you can again attach things to do that for security. You got a ring here to attached other items too. This pack has a carry handle on the top. As well as one on the side and I will explain when that’s for in a short while.
So come into the front of this pack another bungee attachment on the front here so again you could put a jacket or something underneath there if you wish or at top. You also have a sleeve here, so again you could insert other items to that. I've got nothing in here at the minute it’s not something I've had to seen and used. It also have velvet grip pads on this, so Maxpedition makes various products that secure the belt right and you can just write in there. Okay, roughly this top pocket up, now the first thing to know is when this pocket is it open roughly around to here, to this corner. So when you open the pack up, you can access everything quite clearly. Now, should I explain why, why that so? I'm just going to put this pack back on quickly and it explains you why it does that.
So now I've got the pack on, by known to this arm is a chest drop which helps to take some of the load off to your neck. Some of that family, you carry a single sling all right, to mix up, put in across in this radicals right into your neck. Having this under here, just need to turn up and it just takes some of load at all. You can feel the load in coming onto your latissimus dorsal on here, so it would at the large muscle at your back. So it’s really effective but if you release this, then absolutely is packed, is brought around the to the front. Now, when you open the zips up, you can actually access everything from the front here. So that’s the idea of this pack, is everything from this pack is accessible from the front. All the pockets are designed to open this way, packs to this little carry handle on the side as well. All right, so what I top at this—my pack.
I've going out the pack day, this is what I use where my blanket, one of those is supposed a shroud. So head torch and spare batches in there, and a normal torch. And both my head torch and my normal torch take the same batteries. Hand clean up I always get that to the top, so it’s close to hand. There is another pocket behind here, if you want to insert extra item, which I haven't done. There is another couple of strap here, so again you could secure something underneath here if you need the quick release. Zip on the thumb this actually really large pocket on the front here. And what I carry in this one are things like my compass, I've got my tape measures for tracking and according signs if I find like animal prints. The areas of—it’s a map to the two areas I travel with the frequent with the various woods. And I bill come free food, wild foods. I got toilet paper in there some business cards, and just cut the pencils I keep in there.
Now before those items to do the front because there are items that I do use regularly, was in that real looking, just even heading towards my campsite. Now, in the main pocket, there are a couple if knives if lift in my pack, so I haven't got them in the back sides when were walking through. Again this main pocket is vast and again as you can see, it opens up fully. So you can actually clearly, I haven't got rummage, you can clearly see where your stuff is, it’s all organized into several pockets. And there is more than enough room in here, to store food, extra clothing, and any extra stuff as you might require.
So what I've got in mind, I've got bag of chocolate which is I always carry, it’s a fire light and kicking that habit, I don’t smoke but I found a tin. It is a small tin that I use for making chocolate as an out twist in. In this pocket, I carry a chopping board and a large for baking tray. It’s just a base of a barbecue, disposal barbecue. So these pockets on the side are section off into, two thirds and one thirds. So, again you’ve got some really large buckets. On the other side, again there is a compression strap to hold sort of 10 yard and so that—when you’ve got this pack on, if you’ve opened up. So I see those come flying straight out. Again, there is another sleeve here in the back and the large grip pad to secure another item securely as well.
And on this side behind this term, again you’ve got two buckets, again two thirds as to one thirds, and two thirds. And in here I came at all, so I've got that knife, I've got my fold in saw and in this side, okay, various spans of power chord. And I can relays in 25 feet lengths, so there is a whole bundle in it that is 100 feet in that little pack. Right, just put this pack back together. Now on the back of this pack you’ve got already effective, pad in, and it comes through in to the shoulder the strap which makes it really comfy to carry. And I've carry this for you know certainly, two hour walk, I found it fairly comfortable to be that, so I didn’t got please to that. I know a lot of people have concerns about this single shoulder strap and whether I'm just used to it or I don’t know maybe on the sheet because it actually it came to pass away for so long. But I've been really peace with this and I find it really comfy.
So in the back you have another pocket here and as it been designed by Delli, you can put in your hydration bladder and then what you have at the bottom here is a hole here to get your water hose out. There is also one at the top, so depending what type of hydration system you're using, you can use it. Up on the shoulder strap there are attachments there, so can run the hose through if that’s what you wish. Also, you can attach other pockets to here. For example, Maxpedition to the entire pouch, I've plenty got them on my belts here. But his could secure here. And what I carry in mine depending on what I'm doing, I've got my poncho I can put my top inside there. Today because it’s a nice day, its not like it was to rain, I've put a punch through in the back there. It is more like to rain out of my poncho on the box and my top in the back, so that my poncho is easily accessible when I'm out walking.
So that is my review on the Maxpedition Sabercat this area available online from Heinnie Hanes and their website is www.Heinnie.com I would put a link up on my site, to Heinnie and if you’ve got any more questions about this product, please contact them, thank you.
