Notice everything looks new. I keep a 3” ruler and a condom in my wallet, a keychain Swiss Army knife on my keys and a leatherman rebar in my pocket. ‘

A replacement for the Victorinox bit ratchet could be a Prestacycle or Topeak bit ratchet. In the States, a couple other brands like the Power Torque bit ratchet sold at O'Reilly Auto Parts can be found. The Icon Bit ratchet from Harbor Freight might be preferred by some. You've got a good bit of kit there! Thanks for sharing!

Interesting pocket pack. I would replace the sewing kit with a seam reaper which normally comes with a plastic cap into which you can easily store 2 or 3 needles pre-threaded. For sewing in the field, pre-threading is key, otherwise you also need to carry a threader. A seam ripper is very handy for cutting threads and has an interesting shape which can be useful in DIY situations. I would ditch the lighter for a book or two of matches. I would also add an alcohol prep pad or two and a couple of band-aids and a small tube of Neosporin and you have a very useful boo-boo kit, most of which happen when attempting to DIY with inadequate pocket tools. A small tube of Krazy Glue will add to your DIY fix it abilities and double as first aid in the event of a cut which requires closure.

I had that exact lighter - I found over time that it leaked gas, and since I didn't use it very often was basically always empty on the rare occasions that I needed it. I probably refilled it more often than I used it! I've replaced it with a peanut lighter. The o-ring in it stops the fuel from leaking out and it's even smaller (though thicker). a BIC would work just as well, as every EDC channel under the sun will tell you!

@carryco11 ай бұрын

Thanks very much for your message, I'm a big advocate for Bic lighters but unfortunately the Bic Mini I originally had took up too much space (it's nearly double the width) so I had to find an alternative, I've found the Honest lighter to be pretty reliable for the last few months that I've had it.

This is a genius kit. A lot of people know how to fit small items in but not in a way that's useful or effective. Your kit actually is leagues above those 'Altoid tin' kits in that everything has a use and practicality. You also make a really great point about the Leatherman bits. It's so true. If you lost one bit, you're SOL. I personally shifted away from Leatherman bits as well because they get mangled pretty easily (compared to Wiha or Wera bits), they also don't have as much force because it's half the size (they just don't feel as locked in), and it's actually pretty cumbersome to take each bit out and use on a clunky multitool when it's much easier to use a driver instead. I love how you did that cork thing. It's just so next level. And the way you labeled everything is just so eloquent. Also the WD40 idea seems so damn genius as well but I'll admit I'm scared to try that. :P

@carryco Жыл бұрын

Hi there, Thanks very much for your kind message, I've moved putting my kit together and I get plenty of use out of it, I've made a lot of changes since this video so I'll probably upload a new one soon. The WD40 is still holding up ok so far 😂 Cheers

Knipex pliers are my most used tool at work working on chemical tankers. When you adjust them just right they work like a ratchet and make the job very quick and the angled teeth get the same grip as the old fashioned pipe wrenches. I've put cheater bars on my larger ones and put a ton of torque on them and I've still not had any break. I have that mini knipex plier and I never thought of adding it to my edc but I definitely will now. Nice kit you have put together!
