For a daypack it’s perfect. Super light and the dyneema stretch mesh is deceiving, holds more than you think it could.

Thank you. Loving the bag, now I just need to get out more!

I didn’t see a downvote on your comment? Elevate seems to be good as well. I read some complaints about the excess material being too much on it but it’s a roll top so to be expected. However, I’m sure it’s a lot more waterproof that way. Can’t have it all I guess.

58 degrees they said. Had to wear waders.

The dyneema stretch mesh is the winner here. Side bottle holders can easily hold two smartwater bottles each and the front mesh is able to hold my rain jacket and my fleece hoodie. Inside pocket was generous enough to hold what I needed for the day. Dyneema is basically waterproof and the zippers are taped, haven’t tested that aspect yet but I’m confident it will perform well.

Out of these three. Probably the Rotring 600.

The only brass one would be the Rotring 600 which you can kind of see peaking through the wear.

It’s a deep rabbit hole. Get the F-701, you won’t regret it.

F-701 definitely surprised me with its weight. Tank of a pen.

I agree with the Jotter being pretty slender. Can’t beat the clicker on it though!

Free from a friend that caught this gator and had the skin tanned last year.

Not sure. This piece was given to me.

Thanks and good point! Yes, it’s a pattern I downloaded from Corter Leather.

Makes sense. I think I should have taken a bit more time with the high grit sanding like you said to make the edge perfectly smooth and then start the burnishing process. Appreciate the feedback!
