This product is built strong. Great carry handle to share the load. Shoulder straps are robust. Definitely not an ideal EDC pack. In fact, there is nothing EDC about it. The bottom of the pack should be flat so that the pack will stand on its own. There are no organizers in and throughout the pack. Items can and will freely float around in all pockets. If one were to keep firearms inside the pack they will become damaged as there is no retention system. So many better EDC packs on the market. This is not one of them. This particular pack is way too expensive to be advertised as an EDC pack. I will not be recommending it for any type of adventure or carry. Back to the drawing board.
I cannot say it enough, Eberlestock is one of the best finds I’ve come across. I switched from Military clone gear when I got out of the military and moved on to better tech as a contractor. The usual names were all I would see in country. That is until I found Eberlestock. My assault pack got destroyed while running CQB and what’s worse is that it could have been avoided if a common problem had been addressed by the manufacturer. I needed a replacement fast and a newer guy on the team said I should look deeper into Eberlestock. So I did and never looked back. I don’t k ow how many employees there served or contracted but I do know that they have a great sense for both military and civilian common needs and approach there designs with a forward, simple and logical stance. We all want gear that will not let us down more importantly we want gear that we don’t even have to think about. Well that’s Eberlestock.
Perfect for concealing your pistol or short rifle. Excellent quality as all of their packs are. May lack a little access and inside pockets for an everyday pack, but the large open compartments and Velcro capabilities could help with that. Probably the most open availability with the great clamshell design. I have 3-4 different packs now and they all perform well for their desired function. Add in the quality and selection, Eberlstock has a pack for most needs! Great job
It’s a very well made pack, I don’t think it’s quite big enough to take over as an EDC bag without looking too bulky. They color choice leaves a bit to be desired and it doesn’t have a flat bottom so don’t expect to stand it up next to you if you’re seated
I'll review it on YouTube.
I use this pack as a weekend bag and it’s great for it
The Jacknife is the versatile everyday carry and travel pack that I've been waiting for years for Eberlestock to release.
The size is perfect for traveling with all of the essentials: a full-size laptop, a notepad and documents, a small med kit, etc. The rear compartment serves a lot of purposes depending on your application. I've tested it with a broken-down AR and a PDW, but it works equally well for traveling with a folded jacket or even putting enough clothes in there for a basic overnight trip.
My only wish was that it had the same admin features in the lid pocket that the Bandit has, but I solved that by using a few small packing cubes and an admin panel inside the main compartment. Overall, it's a great pack and it will be taking over most of the daily carry and air travel duties from my Bandit.
Overall solid pack. Perfect size for a day- weekend pack. I am 6ft 190 and pack fits me well. Fits 10/22 breakdown but I feel like it could have used a bit more internal organization and a full zippered main compartment. Quality of material is second to none and I also have the Fanny pack and undercover briefcase.
The size, weight and comfort are outfreakinstanding. The quality of the bag is awesome. Durable materials, zippers and zipper pulls......this bag was built to last and fits my edc plus work required items perfectly. Favorite bag I've owned thus far....and I have had many over the years. Killer bag for everyday use and commute to work.
As usual with everything you make— incredible quality and design.
