    Kifaru Scabbard

    Jacob, right now it is only set up to run with the frame. That might change if we see enough demand in the market for an internal framed version but it's too soon to tell. How many of you guys would like to see an internal frame offering?

    What is this Kifaru pack??

    That is an EMR 2 with a Longhunter lid. The lid turns into a lumbar pack if you fish the 2" waist belt out of the back compartment but from the looks of it, the webbing may have been cut.

    Kifaru Urban Ruck 2.0 vs T3 Urban Ruck

    Morning @loco99 , Glad to see you are digging the Urban Ruck. You're right on, the side pockets were made to Nalgene specs as I figured it was probably the most widely used bottle with our customers. The problem with sewing in bungie is it can shred at the anchor point which means I would need...

    What is this Kifaru pack??

    Yep, that's an Gen 2 Xray. If you flip your belt so the tail ends are pointing down, it will reach further down and get your a more comfortable ride height.

    Kifaru Scabbard

    @StuckoYota99 - The scabbard was never intended to carry meat in it but you can adjust it up and down and could fit a bunch of boned out meat in there. You will probably run into problems with quarters with the width of the tunnel. @RhinoKel - The scabbard will work with all of our sling...

    Kifaru Scabbard

    @RhinoKel - He filmed that right before we were about to release the Maniml so he didn't want to mention that yet. Those points hook up to the load shelf with 3 bars to the frame from the back of the Maniml. Not sure if we will be adding that type of load shelf on any future packs, depends on...

    Kifaru Scabbard

    @Roosterstraw - Yes, it will work with the Hunter frame. Only frames that might get complicated are the first get Duplex frames like the Longhunter (they don't have a fabric casing and the compression tabs are surface mounted on the back) or the Bikini frames.

    Kifaru Scabbard

    @Roosterstaw- the top of the frame sheet that creates the tunnel for the weapon to slide through replicates the top of our Duplex / ARK frames. There are dual aluminum stays sewn into the frame sheet to help carry the load and give the tunnel structure. Any Kifaru bag that is designed to go on...

    New Packs from Kifaru 2024

    Sndmn11 - Yes, you can run the Load sling behind the bags on the ARK as a load shelf and you can adjust it up higher to the bottom of the SS tracks if you need to get your load higher. StuckoYota - Yes, Glen had the rifle carry game locked down for a while. Been working on this scabbard for 5...

    Kifaru pack frame fail point

    Tag - Looks like its your fabric casing on the frame where the belt rubs on it? That's a known wear point, especially for frames that have seen a lot of use. 500d is rough on packcloth with a hard/sharp surface behind it. Luckily it doesn't effect performance of the frame. I did take care of...

    Kifaru KU 5200

    What Bill said. As long as you respect the pack's limitations in durability and treat it accordingly, it was a great pack and ahead of it's time. We saw some of the same packs repeatedly come through our repair department for patches because dudes were treating it like a cordura pack or lived...

    Kifaru pack identification

    No problem Quetico. You definitely have a modded Spike camp, I put a center zip down the center of the 14er main body along with a zippered lid and a very different back panel. Let me know if you find any other oddball packs!

    Kifaru pack identification

    _Quetico77 That looks like a customer modified Spike Camp (doesn't have the zippered lid of the Express). Someone added molle to the sides and replaced the lumbar pad materials for something more grippy. The brown triangle in the middle of the lumbar pad looks to be Brown ToughTek, which wasn't...

    Kifaru New Release coming soon

    You're right, we went pretty hard into the paint on advertising this. The last 4 months have been a grind getting the sew floor set up and we're pretty stoked to be back up and making product in house. Building a factory from scratch, staffing and releasing a product takes a hell of a lot of...

    Kifaru New Release coming soon

    Alright yous crazy kids, let me get this on record so you can see where we are coming from. In November of last year, we decided to turn a empty 120' x 60' pole-barn style warehouse in our back lot into the new sewing floor. Since then we have all be balls to the wall installing new electrical...

    Kifarwho 41 Mag - A Stretched 357 Mag

    Thanks Sharps, I appreciate that. I use a combination of AutoCAD, coffee and metal music to make all our gear. One thing I learned quickly is to use the colors to keep seams separate and help differentiate which pieces go together. You can see below how some seams are the same colors on...

    Kifarwho 41 Mag - A Stretched 357 Mag

    Good job @4090Sharps, looks great. I got no problem with people trying my designs or tearing things apart. I know what a kick it is to head into the woods with stuff you've made on your back and the journey it is to get there. If you guys have any questions on patterns or techniques, feel free...
