Got some quality reading material though. And if I'm really desperate I think there's a Sudoku pad that's been buried in my knapsack for about fifteen years.

There's another English word "haversack" which seems archaic to my ears, yet still understandable. Not sure if that's still in modern usage anywhere in the English-speaking world. Maybe UK?

The French "Sac a dos" is even more clear!

In Italian we use "zaino", if you want yet another term.
