In Norway.
I'm assuming you're talking about the large range bag? That particular style and design is very common among a few manufacturers, such as Midway, 5.11, S&W, Green Mountain, etc. The Ulfhednar does cost a lot more, no doubt. Is it worth it compared to the others? Well, I can say that I am impressed with my Ulfhednar Range Bags both large and small. I believe they use 1000D cordura, and I'm almost 100% sure it is based on feel alone compared to many of my other 1000d gear. The Ulfhednar also has pals webbing on the front side and top, which the 5.11 doesn't. Sure, not many people, including myself, will attach anything to the webbing, but it's there and that's an added manufacturing cost. Also, ALL sides and pockets on the Ulfhednar are thickly padded, which is not the case for the 5.11. I can tell you that the Ulfhednar feels of quality and you get that solid tank-like feeling that this bag will last forever! It was worth it for me. Hope that helps.
It is standard 500D cordura.
The Ulfhednar Range Bag was not intended to be locked. However, a small lock fitted through the zippers eyelets on the main compartment would work.
All bags are designed in Norway and manufactured in Pakistan.
The bottom has a very rugged construction.
