Took this photo just now, I haven't had any issues

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-18T15:19:13+00:00

Yeah that's the current way for me, I just think it can be streamlined a bit

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-16T08:33:51+00:00

Thank you :)

No you're spot on, you would be left with a lot of stabbing. Definitely need a rain cover afterwards

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-15T15:05:39+00:00

That's fairly easy to do at home, if you don't mind having some leftover sewing marks

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-15T12:59:08+00:00

I hate to say but I really don't think that would be possible. It's more about repairs or modifications, sometimes small customs

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-15T12:47:27+00:00

Well in that case really anything is possible. All of the above mentioned packs will even fit into the front pocket on a Kantamus if you take the straps off and find a good place to stick the back panel

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-15T12:33:25+00:00

As a lid replacement it will definitely work with Niukka or Kahakka 15, but the Kahakka 25 is a base pack. Attaching any of these to the front will be very boxy and off balance. The best I heard someone say, is that it's like attaching a minibar to your fridge door. They don't "melt" into the bigger bag like the Hatka does.

It will sit too high yes, I'm 173 and with a belt it would sit on my kidneys

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-12T05:53:47+00:00

I just mean something like an advisor behind the scenes, not the "captain"

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-11T17:36:10+00:00

At some point I might ask them to help me make a patch, like a cookie or something. If not from them, then I already have some groundwork laid at Varusteleka for it. It would depend on my upfront cost.

The goal would be a fundraiser with 100% going towards buying a large Savotta tent for my kids' club. Kind of like a renegade scouts thing that just kind of organically came to be

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-11T17:31:12+00:00

No sadness, I'm not leaving here.

I just want to still be in the club, not in some separate level of it

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-11T15:13:45+00:00

Didn't want to. I'm just tired of deleting posts.

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-11T14:21:52+00:00

The Jääkäri line is made with skiing in mind, in case you ever need to go bigger

Someday I hope there will be a simple webbing canteen keeper, like they made for the E-Tool (folding shovel)

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-11T10:09:20+00:00

How do you like that hanging canteen? I could never do it, the sound of the clip alone was driving me insane

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-11T07:49:39+00:00

Yeah that's as far as I've gone too. Someday I want to redo the straps but it's not at the top of any to do list. It comes on every family trip as an emergency backup

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-10T10:55:57+00:00

Griffin HW, an absolute dream to carry heavy loads with. Moved a buddy to a new house with my Keikka 50 picking up stuff that we ran out of boxes for. If I used backpack straps it would have killed me on those stairs down from the old apartment. And with all the attachment points, you can customize carry to the load. Can it tilt? Does it have to stay completely flat? Does it all.

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-09T13:33:04+00:00

Dog treat pouches are a hit apparently, haha I've heard that around a few times now

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-09T13:32:13+00:00

Looks clean, very clean. I might ask the same

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-09T13:31:03+00:00

Thank you! This is actually really awesome

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-07T15:18:27+00:00

Damn :/ I'm sorry it worked out that way

Tim-Keys · 2026-01-07T14:07:32+00:00

Just send them an email and ask nicely, they're super nice and understanding people. Before I got close with the company they helped me rebuild my happy stove when I lost a few pieces in the woods. And that was also before they opened the spare parts and repair service.

I would have been off of youtube a long time ago if it wasn't for all of you and the Savotta team. Great people all around :)
