    2:50 I don't blame you for not wanting to attach your keys to your wallet - that is a foolish thing to do. Most people have a driver's license or something else with their address in their wallet. If you lose your wallet with your key attached to it, whoever finds it is going to have your address and the key to your house.

    An excellent point, it's similar to programming 'home' on your car's GPS and then getting pickpocketed, keys are far more dangerous when kept with information on where to use them.

One thing I like in my pouch is a tiny ferro rod that came with my esee izula. Its maybe and inch long and weighs nothing. I carry a lighter and dont really need it but I like that its there.

    I carry a larger Viperade zippered pouch for 2 pens & a Sharpie with some small zip ties on the outer front side. In the zippered pocket I carry a couple of Dude wipes, tiger balm, Chap stick, ear plugs, a few bandaids & a spare AAA for my small Olight. And I carry a Chums small pouch for a locker key, a few coins, a couple of 1/4" screwdriver bits, 2 toothpicks, a fresnel lens, and a line card from Grimworkshop. In the winter I carry a Wallet Ninja to scrape ice off windshields. I put duct tape on a spent gift card & just pocket it. Nice to organize.

  • @gearedforward

    Жыл бұрын

    EDC stands for Everyday Carry and means the things you carry with you in your day-to-day life to help navigate the situations you find yourself in. Most people have a minimum EDC of their phone, wallet, and keys. However, it's a whole hobby unto itself, that covers other things people carry, commonly including pocket knives, pens, flashlights, and watches. For people that are into the hobby of EDC, we often look for new pieces of gear to carry and add to our collections. I hope that helps!
