Rockhounding Backpack?

Hi to all the rock nerds out there! Question for those in the know: Currently I use a canvas pack to hold my tools, chisels, etc. The main issues: 1) It's a over the shoulder or single handed bag, which is very hard to carry to some places as you can imagine it's quite heavy (especially once I add some rocks to it!), and 2) tools & rocks rip through the bag like nothing.

I've been looking at a couple of options that I think may be better. Anyone out there have experience with these?

For the chisels, I plan on putting them in a roller bag.
