		Enlisted haversacks are for food, they are not for things you care about or need to keep clean.
		These are not copies of any one haversack; instead they use elements from many different haversacks and saddlebags.
		(Officer's haversacks and most early shooter's bags are pretty much just half a pair of saddlebags on a shoulder strap, they would have been made by the same craftsmen so they made what they knew how to make) This gives you a custom looking item, as it should be for a private purchase item.

		If they don't want to keep their sharp weapons sheathed in the Haversack, then they are going to poke a hole in it (and lose everything inside) fairly quickly.
		I agree on backpacks, but the haversack is magical and everytime your hand goes to it, the item is there for you.
		I think what is important to remember is that the haversack doesn't just automatically place an item in your hand as soon as your hand gets withing a foot of it like you are summoning your light sabre lying on the ground.
