Foraging kit bundle for anyone who heads out to harvest, whether it's your first season or your fortieth. Hands-free sling, four muslin bags, two-blade rosewood knife, 4-foot cotton shemagh, brush, waterproof tube.
We come from a foraging family. We built this kit in Oregon during years when most of our calories came off the land, after we couldn't find a good solution for getting into rough backcountry and bringing a harvest out in good condition. Every piece is here because we got tired of doing without it. The whole thing works as a system.
Some of the best harvests come at the least expected times. A flush of oysters on a tree you walk past every week. A patch of ramps you didn't know was there. Walnuts dropping on the way back from somewhere else entirely. The point of this kit is that it's already on you, or in your truck, when those moments show up. You don't have to plan a foraging trip. You're just ready.
The sling rides hands-free as a thigh bag, a cross-body sling, or a backpack when the haul outgrows everything else. Bag body is 11.8" x 9.8" x 2", weight 1.43 lbs. Multiple dedicated D-loops down the body of the bag.
Four muslin bags, four sizes. Small (5.5"x7") for a handful of ramps or delicate mushrooms. Medium (8"x10") for greens. Large (11"x13") for apples, walnuts, or a good haul. Extra-large (14"x16.5") for the chicken of the woods you've been dreaming about. Toggles lock onto the D-loops. Muslin breathes, so the harvest doesn't sweat. The bags crush down to nothing when empty.
How the system works:
The sling has multiple dedicated D-loops down the body. Each muslin bag has a toggle that locks onto a D-loop, so the bag rides where you put it and stays there.
One bag rides open and active, clipped at the mouth so it holds itself wide for one-handed drops. The other three stay closed and attached to other D-loops, ready to swap in.
That changes how you forage. Both hands stay free. Knife in one, harvest in the other. The bag never leaves your hip. You spot a flush of chanterelles, hook-blade in dominant hand, free hand drops them into the open bag. No setting anything down. You walk into a patch of ramps, pop the chanterelle bag closed (toggle stays on its D-loop), clip the next muslin bag open on a different D-loop, and keep walking. Species stay separate. All four bags can ride on the sling at once, one open and three stowed.
Processing at home is the part most foragers like least. This system fixes most of it before you ever get back to the truck.
The foraging knife is the one we wanted and couldn't find, so we made it. Two blades, one tool. The hooked blade lifts chanterelles, morels, and boletes clean. The flat blade handles everything else: stems, black walnut hulls, cordage fiber, acorns. Rosewood handle (3.2"), stainless steel blades (2mm), 6.5" overall, 3.07 oz. Light enough to forget it's in your pocket. Both blades sit in a way that makes it hard to stab yourself, which matters when you're reaching into a bag without looking or handing the knife to a kid.
A dedicated foraging brush in its own slot, soft enough for delicate caps and separate from everything else so it doesn't get gummed up.
A waterproof storage tube for the brush, spices, oils, matches, or a roll of cordage.
A 4-foot by 4-foot 100% cotton shemagh. Ground cloth when the earth is wet. Sun shade when there's no tree in sight. Tablecloth for spreading out the take and processing it on the spot. And when the haul outruns the sling, knot the four corners and sling it over your shoulders to carry out a load no bag could hold.
The whole kit nests together. Knife in its slot, brush in its slot, muslin bags clipped on or stowed, tube tucked in, shemagh folded flat. You grab it on the way out the door and you have what you need.
Who it's for: foragers at any level, mushroom hunters, hunters who pick on the way out, homesteaders, homeschool families teaching field skills, anyone who has tried to carry a half-bushel of pawpaws in a grocery sack and decided there had to be a better way.
