I had no idea the Canadian government allowed Canadian soldiers to possess such "big" knives.;)

The knife looks better than the blade (SOG knife) we were issued in Vietnam!

TS its not like I'm going to tell them. :D
82ndtrooper it is the non-SF version.
That extra stuff is what we have to buy when the issued Tac Vest holds 4 mags and is 0 modular. :mad:

after 2 weeks in the sand box it will all be the same color--dust!:D
That's what I'm told GS. Besides the kit is borrowed so I can't be much of chooser. (Except the knife).

Not a Yarborough, but the civillian version the Green Beret. The picture is of the left side of the blade, where YARBOROUGH and the Serial Number appear.
I think I see a few square inches of open space you could fill with some other pouches or patches.
You know there are these things called rucks that you can put some of that shit in and carry it on your back...
Ugh... good luck effecting a second story breach via building climbing techniques with that kit. For that matter sitting in a HMMV or IOV's; airborne ops or getting onto an airplane; fastroping or ladder climbing. And I'm gussing combat rolls just became a combat flop. But on the most basic of levels... how do ya take a leak?
To quote one of my most esteemed mentors "everyday is kit shake out".
Yeah I'm getting the same criticism from another board. Frankly I'm going in blind as to what I am doing and with whom. I will obviously take everyone's recommendation once in theater.
