About as well made as a rucksack gets. The canvas is gorgeous, as are all materials used. Bloody big sack too. You could fit 5 bowling balls in there. All around friendly object.

I bought mine 10 years ago. I have taken it all over the world, I've taken it camping, I have abused the thing more than you can imagine and it's still as rugged and durable as the day I bought it. It holds a lot more than you would think. It fits under the seat of a 737 and I don't have to check a bag when I travel. Highly recommended!

I was very happy with the quality of this bag. The leather was a little stiff, but nothing a good mink oil treatment wouldn't fix. Surprisingly comfortable to wear; even has an inner canvas drawstring liner to supplement the main drawstring compartment. Definitely worth the money, it is in astonishingly good shape, and will likely continue to be for many years.

Just got my Swiss Rucksack. Holy Catfish!!
This thing is built like a Tank. I never expected anything built this well. I've only seen stuff like this in very old European Mountaineering pictures. I didn't know stuff this well constructed still exists. The thickness of the leather bottom, is WAY more than I expected. This thing will definitely see some woods time. It will carry a couple of my antique camp stoves to the Ozarks, this spring. Thanks, fellas, I'm proud of this one!

Well made and durable. A design flaw might be that there is no waist belt for added stability. I added one made of a wide strap of leather but attached it in a non-permanent way to enable more versatility. I have found that no matter what you buy, you can make an improvement. So with that in mind, this pack is very close to perfect.
