What is in your EDC? (Other than knives)

#1

Post by Dave568 »

I know that probably about 99% of the people on this forum carry a Spyderco knife of somesort with them as an EDC, but I know that at least for me, a knife is just one part of what I carry with me at all times. I also have with me at all times:

- Leatherman Charge xTI Multitool. It's a Leatherman multitool, what else can I say? Incredibly useful, durable, and the highest quality multitool I have ever used.

- Byrd Cara Cara. An inexpensive knife, yet still good enough for most tasks that I don't want to use a higher quality knife on. In essence, it's my "beater" knife.

- Inova T2 LED Flashlight. Very small (5.9" x .98"), very light (5 ounces), and it outputs 40 lumens of light. For comparison, that is a good deal more than a 2-D Cell Maglite.

- Small 24-Piece Lockpick Set. Some might consider this a bit odd, but I am a certified locksmith, and I can't even count the number of times this has saved myself and friends from having to break windows or call someone with a spare key when we get locked out of somewhere.

Then of course there is my cellphone, wallet, and keys.

So what do other people here have as part of their EDC package?

The obliged Spyderco Delica II ofcourse. :D

Then a Victorinox Camper that I already have for a long time. Wallet, Nokia 3510i, keys (with attached Tomahawk backlock folder, something I got for free. Should be replaced with a Jester SE in a few months), handkerchief.

Don't need much more at the moment. In the evening a Maglite 2AA light might be added.

OK, depending on where I'm going...

-a S&W Chiefs special .38 (omit if going somewhere prohibited)

-a Delica FRN

-a Scrade Peanut (I just like it, been with me for years)

-a money clip/credit card holder (a habit from sports car days because a wallet in the back pocket wears out the seat, this rides in the front pocket)

-2 sets of house keys, different key sets of course.

-something to make a flame with

Why do people worry more if you argue with your voices than if you just talk with them? What about if you lose those arguements?
Slowly going crazy at work... they found a way to make the voices work too.

Today -
FRN Delica
Para Military
BM Mini Grip
Ka-Bar/Dozier Folding Hunter
SAK Traveller
Buck Metro
Leatherman PST
Cell
Lighter/cigs
Bus Pass/Security Cards
Fanny Pack - wallet/keys/etc.
Day Pack - rest of "daily" stuff. portable Umbrella/hones/magazines/larger folder clipped (today it's the large CRKT/Crawford Falcon)/USB memory drives/Palm Pilot/etc.

On days that I wear cargo pants, my Camillus Heat and either the Endura/Native III may tag along.

Weekends vary depending on whether I am doing yardwork or "out and about".

Para Military and BM Mini Grip were acquired on the weekend so they are still in "test" mode for EDC. I'm pretty sure that the Mini Grip is going to replace the Mini Ambush.
