Never had anything from sabre, like the look of this holdall.
Any negatives or positives about this company, or their products? TIA.

I owned a saber (supra?) 3 rod holdall a few years back and it was great, I only got rid as I bought a CA trident. I think the saber was actually a better design and more functional but it didn't have much padding.

I also have one the original Saber cradles - great bit of kit that I've used extensively. It doesn't get out much anymore just because it is bulky (I believe they now do a few sizes but this is huge) so only tend to use it where rules dictate a cradle.

Great bit of kit. They added an extra panel to them so they'll take any size of rod and reel. Takes a brolly down the side too without being overly big.

Thanks for replying, does look ideal for me, like the roomy reel pockets

That's interesting, I picked one up 2nd hand and it was to tight for my rods, had to move it on.

I've got one, reel wise it's fine, but it is a bit snug. I've only got 40mm butt rings, don't think I'd want to put 50s in it. I'll keep it until it breaks but I won't replace it with another.

Seems like a dealbreaker, sick of struggling with the zips, which seems to be the case on all I've owned.

Yes, mine were 50's and were a stupidly tight fit so not for me.

As I said mate, the new ones have been expanded.

They've made them bigger? As in the latest model?
Hope so, as I've seen the video and looks roomy enough.
Are you sure?
