I believe that your revolver is not made of all stainless steel. I believe the cylinder and the barrel are stainless steel, but the main frame is made of aluminum or, perhaps, scandium. Hence, the Airweight designation.

@@coreygendron3766 I don't have the same brand revolver,. I have one made by another maker, but it's essentially the same and it's a mix of steel and aluminum. Really lightweight and easy to carry, all day.

Man I need a life. Watched an old man tell me what’s in his pockets.

I’m definitely a minimalist too, revolver (S&W 640 Pro), knife (Spyderco Yojimbo 2), Leatherman (Skeletool), Apple phone, speedloader, and a 1921 silver dollar. Great review!!

Rather than try and find a direct replacement for that ink cartridge, you can use a syringe and refill it. You will need to plug then end with wax, but it's completely doable.

Ha Ha, Courtland Bates... Wasn't that one of the last things you could learn to do by calling a number on a matchbook? I mean the matchbooks that weren't selling how to make a living repairing VCRs?

I have a 642 I do like it.i never yet tried ankle carry maybe someday.

swiss army knife, ebay generic flashlight, metal whistle, all contained in a small soft smartphone case. naa bugout1 22lr mini revolver with revision grips & 10 round speedstrip either holstered or in another same smartphone case. i can pull both cases out of my pockets and nobody knows what they contain. a whistle is essential for distress signaling. sometimes i add a bic lighter to the mix.

I like the old school leathermans. I used to carry the wave but it has too much stuff. Switched to the minimalist one similar to yours.

Nice functional edc.

While needed in a hurry the tail cap switch is the best way to go, ergonomics

Actually Schrade didn't farm things out to Taylor. The 'real' Schrade ceased to exist when they closed up in 2004. Taylor Brands bought the Schrade, Uncle Henry and related names as well as some of the old Schrade designs and began having knives, etc. made in China. Taylor Brands also began having newer designs and tools manufactured under the Schrade brand and some of the other, related names like Uncle Henry, etc. So Schrade did actually make the tactical pen (or, if you prefer, probably had it made in a Chinese factory) - just not the original (real) Schrade - as a division of Taylor Brands. Taylor Brands were also licensed to make knives and related tools under the Smith and Wesson brand. A few years ago BTI tools - which also owns Smith and Wesson (or at least did at the time) - bought out Taylor Brands and so became the owner of the Schrade name and related brands.

Good video. Nice equipment. I don't question your choice of handgun. I also carry a J frame Smith and Wesson sometimes. What I don't understand or agree with is that you don't carry your handgun all the time. My handgun is no different than car insurance. I'm glad I have it, but pray to God that I never need it.

Steve Lewis : My work takes me into customer's homes and business. I don't carry there out of respect for their wishes.

I carry similar, s&w 442, granddad's case, AAA flashlight, and a min altoids tin win impact bits

Awesome video

Its quite possible that you are my brother from another mother buddy because we carry a lot of the same gear!...:) I still have my original Leatherman PST also...itsl a great multitool

THAT IS A S&W 642 AIR WEIGHT ALUMINUM FRAME. CYLINDER AND BARREL IS STAINLESS STEEL.

Dig that, Man... My Leatherman is in a nice monogramed sheath

I EDC pretty much the same as you except I don't like leatherman tools I've had every one of them fail what I EDC now is an Erwin vicegrip multitool. I carry the same revolver a Swiss army treker and a flip phone, I don't want to become one of those people who have there face stuck in their phone like some phone zombie. I like to be aware of the situation around me at all times and I would just like to be able to make a phone call when I need to. Thanks for the video. Sam Adler

I just recently subscribed because of your revolver pros video. Good job! My suggestion on phone is get a newer one. You'll get used to it in about a week. S5 is good, but you should get newer phone, even if it is 2 years back model.

I just purchased the same revolver. I believe the frame is alloy and the barrel and wheel are stainless. Thank you for the video

Seems like a standard D1 cartridge with a plastic adapter, you could try and search one of those.

They're not. There's nothing on a D1 to stop it from just sliding out the end of the pen... nothing for the spring to push against. I did find some short refills that work when I add a ring of 2-part epoxy around them.

Nice knife but a spyderco delica is a lot quicker into action

Direct replacements simply don't seem to exist. But I was able to find one that fits, it just doesn't have a 'flare' in the ink tube to keep it from sliding through the spring and out the pen. I solved that problem by adding some 2-part epoxy at the right spot. I've been using one for several months now with no issues.

I just got subscribed!

I got the same phone.like old school.gave ya a sub

Schrade was Taylor industries Smith and Wesson has bought Taylor so now they own Schrade

Dump the trigger lock version.

“oN mY pErSOn” probably say purchase instead of grip too 🤦‍♂️

Nice to have mad money but a few 1 5 10 or 20 will get you far. A 100 not so much. The original Learherman sucks have to open to use press on them. Old craftsman is better.

My Otter is 4 yo , and not showing it’s age , And you said dodo

You coulda wiped the greasy finger prints off the phone. There’s a reason the knife is out of production. People were calling it Kearshaw and not Kershaw
