Vintage 50’s Swiss army ‘Salt & Pepper’ mountaineers rucksack
This classic, high quality backpack is perfect for hiking or everyday use!
I personally have been using a similar bag every day for two years now!
The outer layer of the bag is made of canvas in olive-green color.
The schoulder- & front straps are made of very robust, strong saddle leather.
The leather parts have been cleaned and oiled, making the bag more flexible and comfortable to wear!
The design of this early model is slightly different from the bags made in 60’s – 80’s which makes it more suitable for everyday use!
The leather on the back is marked with origional initials of the first owner and year.
The bag is in a well-used condition.
The two leather shoulder straps have been replaces by newer ones that are lighter brown in color.
The Backpack stood the test of being used for years and will last just as long!

Two pairs of antique early 1900’s wrought iron climbing spikes
Spikes like these were used by lumberjacks and lineman for climbing trees and telephone poles.
Fitted with these spikes, which were fastened around the wearer’s lower leg with leather straps, he could climb a tree or pole by kicking the pointed end into the trunk with each step up.
These spikes would fit perfectly decorating your cabin, lodge or ranch home!
After more than a century both pairs remain in used condition.
The wrought iron that got oxidiced over the years has been treated with a layer of antique wax to prevent the rust from corroding any further.
The leather straps show tiny cracks and tears due to drying out over all those years. In order to moisturice them and prevending them to dry out even further they have been treated with leather greece.
