Is that duct tape wallet?

It is! It's a very simple bifold, two-pocket design with closable flaps. If you'd like, I can post some pics of it later.

Yes! Please do, I love duct tape wallets and have made some myself. But I'd love to see your take on it. They work great and are fun to make!

Nice Marty! Peace, please post those pics. That wallet is cool!

Nice Marty! Peace, please post those pics. That wallet is cool!

I made this to be a bi-fold, "double pouch" design (though I think I may prefer a "single pouch"). I started with a sheet of wax paper covered in a layer of Gorilla Tape, then cut to size, fold, and tape together.

The flaps not only keep all the contents contained, but also help keep dirt/debris from getting inside and damaging credit cards. Several years ago, I worked in road maintenance and bits of concrete, asphalt, sand, and sweat would find their way into my wallet. I eventually made a duct tape wallet using a Ziploc bag completely protecting all contents from moisture and debris. It worked great, but was bulkier than my current wallet.

Anyway, here's some pics of my current wallet :)

That's great!!

Very cool duct tape wallet! Here's 1 I made a long time ago.

Nice! Is that an Emerson sticker or patch?

It's a sticker. Yeah I started putting stickers and stuff on my duct tape wallets. It's fun. And a good way to use up some stickers.

Solid EDC...

What is that fixed blade, and how big is it?

What multitool is that?

I like that idea! It makes every one of them unique. I had a duct tape wallet awhile back. This has me thinking about one again.

@bearrowland be sure to post a pic when you make it!

I sure will!

This was today's carry. The Rev + Police LW combo sure is a lot of utility for the weight. Together they're about the same as a Leatherman Wave by itself.

This is usually most of what I carry. I have more keys than that because of work and the car, so I'm trying to transition to a key holder. Missing is my Nitecore MT10, and a new carabiner coming in.
I also have a Tasmanian Tiger backpack for what doesn't fit in my pockets.
Still looking for a nice lighter and a watch, which is always difficult because I'm used to wearing it on the inside of my wrist.

Like those orange scales!

Typically one or 2 of these, with a few others that don't fit in the pic! Need to buy another stand! This is the most satisfied I've been with my collection as a whole (not pictured are the SE Endura, Delica Pakkawood, GB2, Para3/Rex45 and Matriarch)
