Glad to hear this as I just recently ordered one! So hopefully between this and the Quake-Claw sling I should be good to go now. The Quake-Claw sling is tops in my book. There's only very few instances where it allows the weapon to move. So hopefully with the addition of this little thing we should be straight now!
The Quake claw sling is another item you could add to this list. I have 3!

Right? After I tried one of them I was like "Why would ANYONE ever use any other sling but this!?" Was the only sling that didn't constantly slide off my shoulder with the backpack strap.
Another vote for a great sling . Every hunting I own has one . My old leather slings don't see much use these days

These have been great for me. A couple of times I have considered lighter weight trekking poles, but the weight saving is not worth the cost to me.

I have a set of the mountainsmith carbonlite poles that I’ve used hard for three years now. Some gnarly hiking, hunting, and I even use them snowshoeing in the winter time. I’ve gone through multiple rubber end tips and snow baskets on them but they’ve been great

Grabber brand tarp. Cheap, durable, reflective, water proof. Use it more as a ground cover than a shelter.

Of course, zip locks and trash bags for water proofing and organization.
Could you provide a link? I can’t find what you’re referring to with the brand

Not everything should cost an arm and a leg. Post any inexpensive stuff you’d recommend that just flat works.

I’ll start with a Mora 711. ~4.5 oz with sheath, easy to sharpen (and resharpen in field), and the textured rubberized grip is fantastic. Easy to grip and your hand doesn’t tire after several hours of boning.

$15

Heavy duty window shrink wrap - makes a great meat tarp or even a groundsheet. With some duct tape you could probably rig an emergency shelter.

6 oz for a 5’ x 10’ sheet, can be cut to size.

$7.94

I gotta say, thank you for posting about your knife. I ordered if after seeing this post without looking into or doing any research(not normal for me). That knife is flat out AMAZING, I polished the edge before l used it in the field for the first time. To date I've field dressed 6 whitetail and camped 1 out without sharpening and it can still shave hair. The last few years I've been using the Havalon or Outdoor Edge, not anymore!



Thanks!

This thread is great!!! what size are you guys buying in the m65 pants liner. I normally wear a 36 or 38 waist by 32 inseam. I’m gonna have my mother in law sew zippers in the legs. (So that link to Amazon would be greatly appreciated). But what size would you guys recommend. The large or x-large. Thanks in advance

This site would suggest a Large, although the only pants listed are the BDUs - I would imagine the sizes are consistent. Definitely look for and pay the little bit extra for the long version.
