Kinda varies but I usually have knife/multitool/flashlight/pen on me, some combination of them. This was today's.

Just finished taking apart and cleaning/lubing my Advocate for the first time - definitely can feel the difference. My 45 minute drive pipe - Peterson 2021 Pipe of the Year, and my most recent fountain pen purchase - a cheapie Pelikan that writes great.

The Spyderco changes almost daily, but the watch, flashlight and fifth pocket knife stay the same.

I was planning to swap the Buck 55 with a Dragonfly, but am having second thoughts as the Dragonfly has a shorter cutting edge and is thicker in the pocket, although it does come with better steel options.

Nice EDC! The 205 series of Pelikans are a great series of pens. And Great paring with the Advocate.

..
• Victorinox Rambler or Manager (sometimes I want the pen, other times the toothpick).
...

You can have the pen AND the toothpick with the Manager... but no tweezers in that case ;)

.. anyway, both the Rambler and the Manager are really good and hard to beat in that (tiny) size and weight range imo.
Top three going by pocket-time (update April 25):
- EDC: Endela SE (K390). Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10), Chaparral SE (CTS XHP)
- Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Endela SE (K390)

Bearded dragon. Wonderful pet. Kids love him. I do sometimes let Spikey go on outings with me. Some people can’t believe he is real 😂

Like Hans, the Spydie(s) rotate, and the rest usually stay the same.
Very nice! Looks a little similar to what I was carrying today
Who made your green scales? I want a REC-esque colorway but cant stomach the price for a legit REC. Maybe a DLC+OD Green will do

Nothing pairs better with a Spyderco than another Spyderco! I usually carry a rotating line up of large Spyderco's (I gravitate towards Shaman, Police4, Chief, or Manix), a Dragonfly or Lil Native, and a P'kal.

For accessories I carry a small Bic lighter, I don't smoke, but I like having a lighter and the bics are pretty indestructible. Even if you get them wet or accidentally wash them. And it's no big deal if you lose it.

I also carry a rotating line up of Nitecore Keychain lights. I like the new Tini2's a lot, and the new TIP SE's, the old TIP CRI's too.

Lynch NW Prybars are a staple of my EDC. They keep me from using my knife as a scraper, screwdriver, bottle opener, or prybar.

Apple Watch, iPhone, SAK Classic on keys, handkerchief, 100 mm Knipex pliers, and the day’s Spyderco. The Spyderco today is my old ZDP Stretch. I often carry SE Endela, FFG Delica, and Smurf blue PM2. (Only one at a time!) I’m also carrying my SAK Tinker. Plus wallet.
