Review on πŸŽ’ Eberlestock Switchblade Backpack by Jerry Chembola

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Big hit and miss...for me

As an owner, user and huge fan of both the G2 Gunslinger and the G4 Operator, I was sadly disappointed with the Switchblade. As another review notes, the packaging design and taper make no sense. This is very impractical and would only take up usable packing space if not cramped. While I haven't actually used the one I ordered, I'm sure it's well built and durable, as are my other two Eberlestock packs. If you're looking for something to match a 10.3-inch AR with a legal documents folder, look elsewhere. That does not fit. If you have a shorter keg binder it will work, but it will take up plenty of usable space to pack everything else. One thing I love and find a nice touch is the magnetic catch for a hidden reserve pistol position. I'm happy for Ebelestok that so many people love this pack, but not for me. If they make a G2 sized package with a more streamlined Switchblade look, I'm in

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
