This is the kit that I have with me almost every single time I'm out for a day in the woods. If I'm going to be out overnight I simply add sleep gear. Super simple, lightweight, and this kit gives me all the versatility I could need.

Yeap i got a wife who has a bad allergic reaction to mosquitos i was shooked the first time she got a bite and she loves the outdoors 😊
Always love seeing your gear. We have the exact same taste in gear, it’s like watching someone explain what I carry with me. Lol you’ve def. tipped me off to a few new things as well though. 💯
Haha - That's awesome! Thank you for watching :)
I need to do an updated bag dump - A lot has changed over the past couple of years.
Great review thanks Anthony 😊
Sweet setup very practical, simple, derect and fast for usage. Now let's see what you got inside.
Brawo Helikon jesteśmy z was dumni🇵🇱
Well done, enjoyed your presentation and information.
Great review thanks anthony 😊
Thank you
Very good
Hello there!
I just want to say that this was an inspiring video. Got some new ides from it, thanks.
Keep up the good work. Best wishes from Sweden.
I'm so glad to hear that! Thanks for stopping by and watching this video :)
Solid kit. Impressive
Thanks! I'm glad you dig it as well :)
Great review brother! Definitely can fit alot in there.
Glad you liked it, man! Told ya on Instagram that I was planning on doing more video, lol :)
And yeah, the Helikon-Tex Haversack is super roomy. Lots of capability with this bag!
Nice!
Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching :)
Great video and excellent review. I also use Helikon Tex material. Great quality. I’ve got the Hillpeople haversack. The Helikon is better made. Only suggestion I can make is carry as much on your belt. And stick that paracord inside. I also have a dedicated ridge line. But I keep it attached to my tarp. Really great set up.
Thanks for checking this video out and for sharing your thoughts here, Mike! I'm glad to hear the Helikon Tex gear is serving you well too :)
@@AnthonyAwaken I like your videos. And you aren’t presenting a lot of unused kit. You are using it before presenting it. Many channels look like I’m being sold something. That the presenter is only Back Yard Bushcrafting
@@mikebox I appreciate that, man. There are definitely occasions where I'm still fairly new to the gear that I'm showing and haven't gotten as much field time in with it as I'd like. But I try to always be open about that. As for most of my "core gear" though...I pretty much use the same stuff from season to season. I actually noticed that during my last winter survival class...I hadn't changed my kit from the previous winter. (If it ain't broke, don't fix it...lol)
@@AnthonyAwaken I’m still using kit from 35 years ago. I’ve got my kit dialed in. I’m always looking at the new stuff. And I offer my clients the new stuff. But I will do a few tests before going all out on something. And I let my clients feedback determine much of my opinion. I just keep seeing guys making videos of gear tests and wonder when do they really have the time to test it out. And the fact that most looks like it just came out of the wrapper. My kit looks used.
Good kit lodaout!!!
Thanks so much! I'm so glad to hear you liked it :)
Nice set brother. I like helikon Tex. Need to get some poncho or tarp
Thanks so much, man!
I'm a huge fan of the versatility of military-style ponchos if I'm going out solo...it's all the space I need to shelter from a rain storm. And I can wear it while I'm walking.
The "supertarp small" I showed here is super roomy though and it'd be my pick for an overnighter or trip with another person. And like you see, it's incredibly compact when folded.
Hit me up if you need help deciding at any point 🙂👍🏻
Nice bag review. I'm considering to get it as well because I love the design haha. I just keep thinking about how I might prefer a small backpack for carrying that much because I move quick and far
This bag is fantastic! It definitely covers most of my loadout for the year (especially for day trips).
But, if you prefer a small backpack check out the following:
- Helikon-Tex Raccoon MK2 (I use this as my get-home bag and it's phenomenal: anthonyawaken.com/get-home-bag-contents-list/)
- Recycled Firefighter 12 Hour Bag (I've used this bag since the first prototype and it's insanely comfy)
Hope that helps!
Great video. Really well presented. Love the simplicity of this set up. Would you take a separate bag for an overnight trip or would you adapt this current set up? Thanks
Thanks for checking this out & for the kind words!
If I'm heading out for an overnight camping trip I adapt this current loadout by adding a larger backpack & transferring the contents into it. Basically, the only things I add into the backpack are my sleeping bag, hammock, food and sometimes a larger cooking pot. Hope that helps :)
Great rundown on the Haversack and load out. Way to go as a minimalist. You're definitely ready to get by and then some. Some unhappy douche gave you a thumbs down and it's cracking me up cause I believe you gave a great presentation. 👍🏼😂
Thanks, bro! The minimalism of a haversack is so important and it's what made me fall in love with this type of bag years ago. You can easily set up an entire camp out of one. You're not burdened by a heavy bag while you're walking. And it doesn't take hours of time to pack it up at the end of the day or the next morning. Perfect for quick trips!
PS: And there's always gonna be that one in every group that doesn't like something, lol.
@@AnthonyAwaken All good points. Touche' about some buggah that can't just be made happy. 😂
Did I miss it but where is the water bottle?
I typically carry my bottle in my hand for a setup like this. Or I remove some items from the main compartment of my bag and slip the bottle in there.
Another option that I do from time to time is tie my Shemagh around my waist and store my bottle + other little stuff in there if I need to be hands-free.
Good seeing you in this video, man! I do have a question for you, but I’ll ask it privately...
Thanks, Jamie! Been needing to hop into doing video stuff for awhile, lol.
(I responded to your question too)
@@AnthonyAwaken is that Helikon-Tex Bushcraft Haversack of yours Adaptive Green or Coyote?

Did you cut all those logs behind you with the Bahco Laplander ?
Great load out. "Mary Poppins" bag lol. How do you carry water bottle?
Thanks for watching!
I just carry my water bottle by hand. I've gotten so used to doing this in my everyday life that it has carried over to being in the woods too. And it saves room for more Mary Poppins survival gear inside the bag, lol #bonus 🤣
Can you fit a 13" MacBook Air into that?
Question: I looked on the Helikon tex US website & couldn't find the same bag you have. Any idea on if they r just not selling the one anymore or am I looking on the wrong website?
Hi, nice bag,
A question, the foldable bag can be used as an improved canteen?
Hey, thanks!
I'm not sure if you're wanting to know if the bag itself will hold water, or if it will hold a metal/plastic canteen...So I'll answer both :)
The bag itself will NOT hold water.
It can definitely be unfolded to hold a metal or plastic bottle though.
Hope that helps!
Good video buddy. Where can I get one of those anoraks?
Hey bro! I highly recommend the Lester River Boreal Anorak: lrbushcraft.com/lester-river-bushcraft-wool-boreal-shirt-anorak/ - It's expensive, but man is it a great piece of clothing in the outdoors! I saved for a year to buy mine and don't regret it one bit.
PS: I have a tote of stuff for you to look through again. Text me sometime and you can look through it all :)
I love the roll-up bag. Could you tell me brand, or how to find it?
Sure thing! That's the "Bushcraft Folding Dump Pouch" by Helikon-Tex. It's a quality pouch as well :)
I provide some more links to the products shown in this video here: anthonyawaken.com/helikon-tex-bushcraft-haversack/
Nice review.. What colour of haversack is it, adaptive green? Thanks..
Thanks, man! I'm glad you liked it.
Yeah this is adaptive green. I absolutely love this color from Helikon-Tex. It blends so well into multiple environments 👍🏻
@@AnthonyAwaken Thanks for reply, Anthony. Do you commonly use it like city-bag? I have their satchel in olive green, and - nice color, but, next time I will choose something less "foresty" - I would like to have the whole helikon haversack in RAL 7013, I hope they will bring it.
Yeah, man...I really like this type of bag in a city setting. And that adaptive green color works well and doesn't look too woodsy or military-esque in crowds.
I do have this exact bag in black too though. And that's what I typically reach for if I know I'm gonna be strictly in a city. But again, adaptive green still works well 👍🏻
Whst gloves were those
What was the last thing you said about the gorilla tape? It’s a fire what? Cheers!
Hey sorry, Michael...I must've got to talking too fast there, lol.
Gorilla Tape is an excellent fire extender.
A bit more info:
• You can shred gorilla tape up into slim slivers. Then put the slivers into a loose "ball" shape and hit it with a ferro rod or lighter.
• Depending on the size of your "gorilla tape ball" (G.T.B. - I just made that up) it will burn for a long while.
• It works well in wet weather as well since the sticky part of the tape is the most flammable & the exterior sheds water like a ducks back.
• I typically make a loose softball-sized G.T.B. and it burns for right around 10 minutes.
Hope that helps!
Anyone have an idea on when this will be released to the US market? That 40 dollar shipping almost doubling the cost is hard for me to swallow.
Also i really love your setup, incredibly well thought out and organized.
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it...This has remained one of my favorite bags throughout this Summer, leading into Fall. The kit inside has changed very little as well.
Unfortunately, I don't know when this one will be available in the USA...
Their stuff has been a little slow to make it to the US Market over the past year & a half, it seems. Most folks I know have been saving up, then ordering multiple items from their international site to make the shipping cost a bit more bearable.
I would recommend checking out this haversack as well (which is currently available on the USA Amazon): amzn.to/3yvUx8e
That bag honestly looks awesome...I just haven't made my way into testing one of them yet. (Now that I'm seeing they have a Woodland one I might just have to change that, lol)
What's the overall of all this gear? With empty bottle.
I can't remember the exact weight of this kit. But, these days I try to keep my haversack loadouts light (5-8lbs max). I've noticed if I carry much more than that in a haversack it can get uncomfortable.
You think the Pathfinder school will except this for their basic, intermediate an Advance class?
I don't think so mate look at something a little bigger like 25 liter pack
Sorry should have said you want to carry more water and food wet weather gear, shelter etc
The colour... Is it adaptive green or coyote ?
Hey, Alex - This is Adaptive Green...
This color has really grown on me since getting into Helikon's gear. In some light, it makes you wonder if it's a coyote type of color. But it's a nice happy medium between coyote and more traditional green colors. It blends very well here in the Appalachian Mountains (sometimes a little too well, especially if I sit the bag down while I'm scouting a new area, lol).
nothing about the dimensions
Pills should never go out of their original packaging, just to carry them around. You can do more harm to yourself than good...
Thanks for the heads up here...I didn't know that. What happens if they're removed from their packaging & placed in another container?
@@AnthonyAwaken it's a number of things from not knowing the use by dates to potential medical interactions etc.
Bag too small.
No...he's just carrying way too much stuff. Ridiculous load out for a day in the bush.
