I bought one of these on your recommendation, and I love it. Thank you for another great post.

I usually avoid gear reviews, but i have trust in your style of straight to the point, no gimmicks, "this piece of gear has multiple purposes and deserves it's place in a pack" style of review.... When you say it is good to go, it must be worth it's weight. Thank you.

I don't think I've heard this much excitement in corporal's voice, ever..

I just ordered both of these based on your recommendation. Thank you for recommending good gear and also providing excellent how-to videos.

These both really look like great pieces of gear. Really appreciate the closeups of the items as you go through the steps of review. I don't know of anyone else who does that, and it makes things so much easier to understand... Well done as usual.

Probably one of the most functional poncho I have ever seen sure beat the hell out of my issue in the marine corps thanks bro

I just want to thank you for showing me bankline, so much ideas popped into my head since I saw you using it for everything. Thanks again for giving me the motivation to get out there and try things in the woods, seeing how easy you make it with minimal survival gear gives me the strength to test my limits

Appreciate all of your videos. I seek wisdom on outdoor endeavors and you provide great advice and wisdom. I learn every time I watch.

As usual, your attention to detail and ability to communicate clearly is outstanding.

You can tell when someone is pushing a product because they're getting paid and when someone genuinely likes the product. You are the later of the 2 and it's refreshing to see someone give an honest review on a great product.

Mine just arrived. It is SWEET!!! Got the poncho coming too. Thanks for tuning me into this. Going to be part of my archery elk hunting loadout. Oohrah!

OMG! I wish these were around when I was younger. Better nights & easier mornings. Keep the videos coming Corporal.

I ordered one of these from the pathfinder school for Christmas. I was thinking it was going to get here maybe a week after Christmas or so. They surprised me completely and got it out to me by Christmas Eve! Super fast shipping at no extra cost. Super awesome of you guys. Much love! Big fan of everyone at the pathfinder school, you guys do great work.

I've watched this a few times and you constantly mention the swagman... I'm sold. It's going to be my next big purchase and I'll go through your influencer page when I do. Great job, Corporal... as usual.

I've recently bought both of these per your recommendations...Love them! I can't believe how light they are... I'll be putting them to use in the field very soon! Thanks again for your simple AF videos and knowledge!! I'm 52 and have been hunting , camping , and hiking since I was 14! Why I'm just now learning this valuable info is beyond me!! With that said, I refuse to get old and looking forward to retirement in 7 yrs!!

Best YT bushcraft channel by far. I’ve learned how to use a map and compass better than so many books. I’ve seen so many shelter builds and knots. I have to practice the knots but holy hell have I gone from goober to champ in just a few hours.

Maybe the most valuable piece of kit I've purchased. Excellent recommendation. Took forever to get shipped but damn worth every second I waited. Mandatory kit for serious users. This is the way!!!! Thanks for all your research 👍

I bought the Helikon Tex Swagman Roll off Amazon for $144.Watching this video convinced me that I should buy one.Thanks for the video

Thanks for all the great videos you have been putting out, This video has been the most informative on the Swagman Roll that I've seen. I just purchased it and Helikon US Poncho as well.

I don’t often go for kit reviews, but after your last lesson using the Swagman Roll, I kept an eye out for this one. Great review! I’ll be adding this to my personal kit soon. Thanks.

Very good. Since seeing this presentation several months ago, I purchased one of these. Very impressive. Light, warm, roomy and compact compared to a full size sleeping bag or wool blanket. Now a part of my day hike/emergency survival/ inconvenient camping gear.Thank you very much

I absolutely love my Helikon Swagman! They rock! They are very useful in many different roles. Helikon Urban line are my favorite pants also. Plus they make the most comfortable hats, they are my favorite hats, and I have worn so many different brands, I can't even start to name them all. Thanks for the video.

Thank you for reviewing and sharing this with us, have been curious about this item for a while now and was waiting for such a review.

These are available right now for those interested. Just ordered mine! Honestly, when I first saw this video, I was sold on it. I just couldn't get it at the time because it was sold out. They now have more color/camo options. Thanks Corporal!

So I'm in pouring rain, wearing my Swagman Poncho and I have to stop and make shelter for the night. Now I have to take off the only rain protection that I am wearing in order to make an overhead shelter out of it. What happens to me? ... I get soaked in rain doing it. My train of thought is never have one option... my carried shelter (tarp, etc) should be my shelter. My poncho should be my poncho. I believe that should be the norm. Who doesn't carry a tarp these days? In 23 years in the military, I never used my poncho for anything other than worn over my body for rain protection, or perhaps sometimes as a ground cloth inside a pup tent, if expecting rain in the night. If I had to stop in the rain and sleep in it (leaning against a tree)... fine, and that was done many times; but I didn't take it off to make a tarp out of it in the driving rain. And we used our woobies inside our sleeping bags... that WAS it's purpose, at least for me and my buddies it was... oh the comfort of a soft woobie inside the bag! You know what I'm talking about!!! One other thing I'm seeing is perhaps a restriction of movement of the arms when connecting that buckle (as a "jacket")? I'd like to see how much actual movement is available when that is done. Doesn't appear too promising. Now then... one thing I really like is this Poncho itself. Do you know how hard it is to get an actual military issue poncho these days? Nearly impossible... you can get Rothco and other brands that "mimic" the issued ponchos, but hard to find the real thing. This poncho is probably the closest to the actual as one will find. Big plus there, and I plan on getting one or two. And yes, I still do have 2 issued ponchos (both woodland pattern), and two issued woobies... considered some of best things I came out of the military with in-hand. Thanks Corporal... carry on. Love the videos!

@@polniypridumok In the Spring/Summer? why would you have a poncho liner in the Spring/Summer? I'm only taking about only having one option... a poncho that can be used as a primary shelter, or carrying both... a poncho to keep you dry as you move, and a separate tarp for a shelter.

CPL, You sold me on the SWAGMAN. Also you are an artist with your tarp/poncho configurations. I’ve been a longtime lurker on your channel, but subbed today finally because of your attention to detail and military style of instruction (my favorite part. Very nostalgic). Thank you for your great videos of sharing your adventures, tutorials, product reviews, and wisdom.

I bought both the swagman and poncho, they are outstanding just like you said. Thanks again for helping me pick the best gear.

I now have the Swagman Roll and I love it!! Used it for a week in the Sierra mountains.

Really really like your shows makes me humble peace and blessing to you

That looks like a great piece of kit to have. I will put it on my Christmas list for sure! Thanks for sharing!

Great stuff, just started watching around a month ago... I've been off work for an injury, and found your channel. I must say I'm enjoying it and love learning from it.....

Just ordered my Swagman and cordage, I'm looking forward to having it in my kit! There was no way to comment during the purchasing process that the Corporal sent me, but I hope you do get a percentage of sales

Love it corporal. This one is a gem. I cannot thank you enough for reviewing this poncho. Go gear approved.

I like how you are not making the squeak sound that all rain coats have. Being quiet when hunting is the best.

Loved the review; yours are always the best! Looks like Amazon needs to restock ASAP.

Excellent review, as always! These are definitely going on my "wish list." Thanks, Corporal -- and God bless you and yours!

Love the upgrades :-) I only just very recently bought the basic set-up as a cheap sleep system and along with your help/guidance/advice and all your wonderful shared knowledge I hope to be in the great out doors very soon :-) Sending Best Wishes all the way from Scotland*Thank you Corporal Corner*

Great follow up to your last video. This is what we need. More functional, no nonsense gear reviews. Thanks

This is exactly what I remember ( just cannot find my old GI version Woobie and Poncho =( Looks like a great replacement that is updated =) Love the chest pouch for maps and papers ... great idea and can make a light weight sleep Summer bag =) They are a bit pricey but worth the difference over the commercial stuff out there to replace the older GI one and the real Woobies are expensive and well worn 8-) Thanks for sharing =)

Sorry, I can't say the same about their BDU pants. Good old American issued lasted me for 3-5 years. Helikon - I feel lucky when they last for one year :( + all the buttons fall off after several months. So you better carry a needle and thread with ya all times. I wish I could say something better about my fellows from Poland... byt I just can't :( Whatever I buy from Helikon or Mil-tec it turns out to be a piece of crap.

Once I saw that video about a year ago I bought Swagman Roll straight away and it was the best buy after a great advertising! Thank you. 100% tested and recommended item! Multifunctionality is worth the price!

Excellent demo Corporal!!! Thanks for the share!

Totally awesome set up corporal! That's definitely on my wishlist, lightweight and very durable!!! Has me sold brother! Thanks for another awesome video and a great review of an outstanding AF product!!!

Good review. Multi-function and very lightweight. Beyond bushcraft, I think these would be great for thru-hikers, etc. And imagine these being distributed by Red Cross during disasters instead of simple blankets along with a Corporal's Ridgeline system. FYI ... I reached out to Helikon to see about a Swagman in multicam black on a side / hi-vis orange on the other. Combo urban grey-man / search & rescue. Coupled with a woodland camo pattern poncho, you'd have 3 of 5 major scenarios / environments covered (not desert or snow). No plans at present but they passed it on to R&D for consideration.

That is a nice poncho and I would love to have it to wear on a camping trip or keep it stored in my backpack for when needed. The poncho liner is great also and would be great to have with the poncho and I may end up getting this system to add to my backpack in the future. Right now I am satisfied with the rain gear I already have and I hope you have a great new week.

Just received my swagman this morning courtesy of amazon, looks amazing can’t wait to try it as a part of my cover element! The swagman will replace my poncho liner.

heavily impressed every time I watch your vids! sold!

Thanks Corporal, your review sold one to me. I love it so far (unboxed both roll and poncho) and next is test when the weather loses the snow. haha ! THANKS !

Now that is a nice bit of civi kit at last a good quality poncho and liner....I'm sold on it too 👍

Thanks friend, great video on this universal poncho/ bed, love it.. will definitely be getting one for my bug out pack!! Again appreciate your great advice and suggestions

I know this is an old video, but I thinking of trying to integrate an all in one system for 3, I know it's gonna be hard thats one reason why I'm going to try, and alot of the things I see you do really inspire me, thank you sir

I like that in the first 5 seconds you demonstrate the most important feature. Nice work on this video, was unsure about this item, going to get it now!

Thank you, I've been looking for a really good poncho system for a long time!

I was just watching one of your old videos, not that old, December, about your EDC and I just wanted to say that when I go to the dentist he always gives me one of those little dispensers of floss and I always toss those in my EDC. Yhey take up no room, add no weight, and they're perfect for whipping rope ends, sewing, trip lines, all different other uses where a very small strong line would be necessary or helpful. You present great stuff.

That medevil instrumental towards the end always vibes well.

I received my Helikon Swagman Roll and Poncho in four days..amazing! It was shipped from Manchester, England. The camo I received is called Camogrom, a more subdued woodland with a desert flavor if you will :) The quality of both kits is excellent. Both arrived in well made stuff sacks, the poncho in a Camogrom and the roll in an OD green one. To me the $153 is money more than well spent. I packed them in a Savotta Jaakari S or MiniJaakari pack from Finland (a superb 20L pack) with plenty of room for the rest of my gear (plus food and water) allowing me at least two days out. The other item I purchased was a 500ml Grayl water purifier you and Josh both reviewed. This, too, was money well spent ($55 for the 500ml and $85 for the 550ml version. Both items, the Swagman Roll and poncho, were neatly folded in their respective stuff sacks. When I removed the Swagman Roll it "ballooned" into a huge size and I worried that it would not go back into the stuff sack easily. I zipped it up into its sleeping bag configuration and shoved it back into the sack with ease. Thank you, sir, for the video and recommendation. Man, I think my bushcraft kit is complete!

This was it about 4 years ago this video but i hadn't seen it and man this is awesome! I've seen you use these 100 times at least but I hadn't seen this video yet and man, I got to get one now.

Im more of a flecktarn kinda guy but that swagman is definetly going to become a new addition to my hiking bag. I needed a liner too

Great looking product. Well made. Great design. I’m going to be getting one. Awesome vid man👍🏻

Really grateful for this review. Thanks.

Thanks Corporal, I needed another poncho liner like another hole in the head, but, I ordered one anyway. Great review, and another great video.

Great kit. Have been watching the swagman for a while now. I currently own a Jervan bag so can't justify the purchase yet!

Very nice bit of kit. Thanks.

i am glad i subscribed to your channel because you helped save me when i had an allergic reaction to some thing i could hear you tell me what i should do my eyes was swollen shut i could hear your voice giving instructions thanks bro you are awesome

I was researching the poncho to replace my heavy current option thought I was halving the weight then I seen how good the swagman roll attachment is. Now I need to adjust a few things to compensate the extra weight. Thanks great review

was going to get a good expensive tarp and sleep system, but I'm thinking this swagman roll poncho and liner would be better suited for my immediate emergency needs.

Outstanding as always

Everything they make is always squared away. It’s always made so well and with great care and the features always work great.

Awesome, well that answered my question and searching for the right poncho. I one i originally bought wasn't water proof and i had to buy a sealant. Great set up and will be headed next to Amazon

This product is so cool! I’m definitely considering buying this now!

Thanks for clarifying what a Swagman was, big part of Australian history and tradition, might want to look up some of the traditional Aussie bush kit like swags, many versions now out there but look for and research the originals style swags, also an awesome piece of kit if you can get your hands on one is the original style oilskin" Drizabone" stockmans coat.
