Hard Knocks! Tell us about your piggy back rig that you showed in the Universal Kydex Extension thread. Even though there are not GSO's in it, I'm sure that knowing about the kydex bender and the gear you have could inspire some of us here!
Agreed - I saw that pic and that's a great way to carry the small/large combo!
Thank you fellas! I do love that system when I am traveling light. It is the one that goes with me when I am not really planning on staying out overnight in the spring/summer/fall but could in a pinch. And it is on my hip every time I'm out chasing bear with dogs and need to be mobile. It houses a Swamprat RMD and their skeletonized Warden. A GSO 5.1 could easily be used in place of the RMD, and I've thought about doing a rig like this with a 'scale-less' 3.5, maybe with a cord-wrapped handle.
Now I love that sheath, but the maker got banned here so I feel like I shouldn't go there......however, I will show some more pics of it and what it houses. I will say this, if there are any benders that happen through here, I feel like there is a market for this kind of setup that is not EASILY found on the internet. I know there are guys out there that will build this kind of thing, but it takes quite a bit of effort to get it all to come together whereas it was very easy to order from the original maker.
Pics from the UKE thread:
A couple more when it was brand new
And a few showing some of the contents. I've added a bit of charcloth and fat wood since. Maybe some other stuff too, I'm usually fiddling with contents or upgrading, ha. Easily changed for what each person intends to carry. There's about half a jelly cottonball in the cap of the exotac firesteel as well. The pouch is an esee pouch made for the size of an altoids tin, so really any maker that had the pouch in his hands would have the hole pattern for attachment. Pretty tidy carry.
And credit where it's due, I saw a setup from my Rat buddy Worldwood, and then modified it to my uses because I like it so much :thumbup:
