A backpack is much more convenient than a toolbox, specially considering that you will have to rely on public transportation after selling your car to buy all those tools. Clever.

I'm retired from the electrical trade, but it was my experience that any kind of "backpack" type of tool carrier had the potential of gaining weight as tools would be added over time to the point of the bag not being as practical as first intended. It starts out being organized but ends up being not so organized.

I ve been carrying my Veto propac for almost 3 years, same essential tools, everytool goes back to it's exact designated compartement after every use, I can close my eyes and grab any tool I want because I ve kept the exact same layout for almost 3 years of daily use! It's amazing! I ve met guys who were used to throw all their tools in buckets try backpacks, and they end up using the backpack like a bucket, randomly throwing tools in it...

I've used a tool backpack everyday for a few years. It's so damn organized, and I must have around $2000 worth of tools in it. lots of guys I know have tools buried at the bottom from tossing their shit in it at the end of the day. Tools make you money, and you should treat them well. I take a few minutes at the end of the day to put everything back where it should go, and bag stays neat and ready for the next day.

It’s just to dissuade anyone snooping and/or unzipping. Anyone who truly wants to steal anything will steal anything… even the latest Mercedes Benz S class… straight off the dealership parking lot lol… give someone enough balls, lack of brain cell plasticity, and free time with a pinch of desire to get easy money and you have yourselves a problem no lock will prevent. This is more of the weird guy at job site who stole my pliers and lied saying he hasn’t seen them type of lock.

The main reason this is useful is if you are walking and someone from behind unzips the bag and as for the zip being able to be opened with a pen a higher end zip will most likely break the pen or if you use an alternative to a pen that is stronger and more suited for the job then the zip will most likely break showing that someone had definitely forced entry in to the bag because you could think that you lost an item if it is missing but if you have confirmation the zip is broken you can then say it was most likely stolen and you didn't misplace it whilst working

As so many others have discovered over the years. Having your main organised equipment bag in a backpack format frees up your hands to carry other items.

That's a lovely kit of Knippex tools, which makes life so easy on the jobsite. But sadly, one bad thought comes to mind. If your van is broken into, the tea-leaf has one bag to hoist, and you've lost all your hand tools in one go. A sad thought really, but I truly hope it doesn't happen to you.

Looks nice but a little behind as I've been using Veto and specifically the tech pac back pack hi Viz yellow. Plus the Veto pro pac MB3B and I can get all my meters in there too and they clip together using Molle. Doesn't come that way but I've used Molle since I was a boy in the army. And it goes together well. Not sure on knipex price for this system but a Veto tech pac is around £289-300 obviously minus all the sponsored tools. 😊😊😊Plus they do the tech pac wheeler that can hold a lot more tools. Incase you don't want a back pac type bag on site. Best regards, Scott. ✌️🙏✌️
I wish I can afford one! Try been an apprentice here in nz this thing is a dream to own
Absolutely no point carrying that amount of tools. Your back will pay the price in the long run.
Glad you like my design
You forgot to show the compartment for the hammer,drill,chaser,drill bits,screws,nuts ect.ect.ect. But i love the high security padlock please take my money now
Does it resist the ink pen entry method?
That's two cases awesome up until you see the price of it and then the price of the tools you have to put in it. That shows you're serious worker if you're walking around one of these.. sadly I can barely afford the flyer so I don't see a suitcase happening anytime soon unfortunately..

Yep, well happy that I just bought a stanley fatmax as this looks orgasmic compared to that Very pricey though, modelled on the Vtec pro by looks of it
Pricey though, looked at them and the Pro Pac but for starting out, or even everyday once experienced they are an excessive cost. They do look amazing but can’t help feeling manufacturers are fleecing us with cost to tool cases and bags now.
Does it apply shock therapy to those daring filling it with Wiha tools?
