Nice backpacks, N1.
What's the total weight with the E&E pack?
dont know,i didnt weigh it.as much as any other pack its size i'd imagine.
while it is expensive it really isnt compared to the competition.if you look at prices from other companies with a reputation for good packs kifaru's prices are good.dony forget that the other companies also mass produce their gear and kifaru is all done one at a time and custom.think of the others like kershaw knives and kifaru like busse combat,they have the same warranty as busse too and everything is made in the USA.
the zulu was around $270 and the E&E pack around $80.
if you go to their web-site dont just look at the packs.read all the material their is on that site.they have info ranging from topics on their gear to hunting tips since the owner is an avid elk hunter and all types of good stuff along with their own kifaru forum.
it would take 2 hours to see that whole site.good stuff.
