I use AA bateries that you can recharge.

Where would you actually carry it? I’m assuming you toss it in your backpack.

Υou better change your saw. This is not a saw to deal with green branches. As for the chain saw you better leave this at home.

Did you say a pliers wrench is a gimmicky tool? I take issue with that

For additional fire starter use cotton balls, or cotton from aspirin bottles soaked in hand sanitizer then sealed. I am using these in pill bottles but will try some in vacuum packs to see how it works.

i can barely find any batteries to buy where i live, i do have chargers usb power and even solar pannels with usb chargers in it. you can buy the rovivon one that has both if you actually want to have battery power, but i dont see the point. Also letherman is inferior to the victorinox. its too large and not enough functions to be worth it. and its flat bits f up everything. Also if you have a were bit kit inside, and you have almost everything you need! Put in a nextool multitool that has a wrench and knife and scisors and you dont need a lot more. best tools are made in Germany and switzerland! Oh also letherman moved production from the us for most of its products btw.

Why does no one know about or use a sharpensbest tool? They have models that have ferro rods, so besides sharpening you can also throw sparks.

THATS NOT THE SMALLEST PRY BAR THAT WORKS =p

I watched this on 2x speed and it was still to slow. Just get to the point

Can you just use your Knipex pliers instead of a sillcock key?

Lots of good ideas here, thanks!

You're closing your leatherman wrong, you may even damage the scissors if you applied force that way. The scissors are supposed to go in in open position, so no part of it will stick out and the tool will close flush. It'll also fit the elastic loop a little better.

I saw a video from MeZillch where he cut the rounded end off of his Pocketwrench II so it was open-ended. This improved the functionality significantly.

can you replace the Leatherman with a fixed blade due to the pliers and bit driver

dont forget to get some diarrhea pills in case it ever happens ya never know

If you have access to electricty you can recharge your Nitecore powerbank - the other charger is redundant. A knife? surely there is a blade in your multitool - again its redundant.

I use the same exact eye drops you have in your kit. You get 5-8 drops out of each tube.

Sounds like pretty good advice. Would really like to see your next video of you testing your bag and equipment. Either in an urban area overnight or woodland overnight.

You carry that purse/bag everyday wherever you go? Im asking because EDC means Every day carry.

You're a bold man using a power drill on junction box screws lol

The Wave and Wave+ weigh the same 241g.....

This ia not an EDC kit, this ia pure paranoia.

Thank You, I agree, stop buying Alkaline batteries for any long term use - they will all leak, corrode, and destroy your electronics.

Hi great Video Superglue was first developed by scientists at Eastman Kodak to seal wounds -- that's why it does so well @ sticking to your fingers when you try to use it ... So you may want to replace the epoxy with the Super glue and add that to the Med part of your bag

Very helpful information!

If you are going to include a water kit, sawyer mini rated for 100,000 gallons, it would easily fit in there. Klien electricians shears, see maxlvledc video testing all kinds of edc scissors. I use a Bibury “wave clone” in conjunction with Knipex pliers, the clone uses a standard bit driver, massive advantage over proprietary and weak leatherman bits.

Enjoy your series. I would note that Clothes are covered in Cover in the 10 c's . Also Signaling is included in candling.

Pretty standard BOB.

Great content, hope to see more of them in the future. (Keep them going, don’t give up) I was wondering if you had a total of all the items or a estimate? Just curious…

Feet. Looks like some of your items consider travel and meals on the move. I would recommend underwear, socks, foot powder, and maybe chafe powder. Kit looks great. Sanitation is important. Add lightweight layered shelter to that and it would be close to perfect for me, maybe not you I don’t know

New sub here. Good kit. Did you happen to have another KZbin channel a years ago?

Great video. New viewer to your channel. Gonna watch some of you back catalogue now.

Google is trash use Osmand instead

The scissors lever in the wave goes all the way down, that is why it is not fully closing

You need water on you to start with

I love the Maxipedition pouches. Have one as an EDC pouch. Very similar content.

edc? More like survival pouch😂

Advil/Ibuprofen also comes in tough tubes the size and shape of Chapstick tubes. The tubes will hold many pills, and you can carry a mix of 2 or 3 pills in one tube: ibuprofen, baby aspirin, Benadryl, anti-diarrheal, etc. Those tubes are also good for carrying earplugs. A length of hot glue stick is a compact , handy thing. The Bic can melt the glue. Cell phones die. I think it smart to include one laminated list of important phone numbers (personal, police, fire, sheriff, AAA, wrecker, cab,..., addresses, etc}. I'd seal the leak-prone epoxy glue in a foodsaver bag.

Great content and quality videos. I subscribed and look forward to more videos

Due to the varied number of replies, I thought I should mention something in additional to what I had posted in previous months. What one Every Day Carries depends on several factors. 1) Where one is located, and where one is traveling to. 2) The skill set of the individual. What I mean is that each of us have certain skills and backgrounds that influence what we bring with us. The more of a Jack of all Trades type of person, equates to more items that we may have to repair, modify, build, and create. A person that is familiar with sewing may have a leather needle, and a nylon thread, an Engineer may have with them a multimeter & jumper cables, an EMT may have a medical field kit. 3) Sometimes we may not be familiar with certain medical kits, but that doesn't mean not to bring certain medical items with you, as chances are if you are indeed injured, although you may not know how to use a torniquet, someone that stops to help you may know how to use it. 4) Some novelty outdoor & EDC gear may look really cool, or fancy, but as with all tools and gears, other than SAKs (Swiss Army Knives) & Leatherman tools, a lot of these novelty items are kind of crappy, and one is better of using a dedicated tool specifically designed for the job. 5) Last, just because you have a piece of gear with you doesn't mean you are good to go. Knowing how to use your gear, and knowing your gear inside and out is the key. Always try out your gear at home and never try it out for the 1st time in an emergency, or out in the wild.

Something light but very useful you could add would be a usb and an otg cable so you can access the usb from your phone. You can have plenty of useful pdf books like how to guides plus wikipedia and entertainment like podcasts, non-fiction books, videos and music. It will also allow you to keep another copy of your Important documents and family pictures. You can share the data with others or simply enjoy it yourself. It could be a big boost in moral and mental health as well as resources.

Why do you have a knife and also a multitool with a knife? Seems redundant. You seem to be very careful about weight otherwise...

It would be helpful if you provided a checklist of the items. Also, keep a list of items in the carry bag to help keep track when items are missing.

Hello listening and read the comments from others. I will consider what you said from all 3 videos. It’s a balancing act with these( weight, bulk, capability and functionality) I get 2 is one rule but I try to have redundancies that cover many areas and situations. Like the water in part one, I have water to start, metal container and filter. In case of fire got water to go. Raining I’ll catch and store it. Filter for other stuff. Take CaRe ❤

Hello listening to what you “cover” here❤. I understand about the shelter elements and navigation choices. Less likely to be bugging out in below freezing temps and more likely to shelter in place. I got some maps but realize that phones may still be useful. Practice and knowing routes in the mind weighs nothing. Enjoying see you point of view

Hello listening to your point of view and reasoning and yes I heard that one word 9 times. ;) yeah I’ve not a fan of those card tools either. Personally I like to put them together, as one tends to know it better overall versus pre made, and can be fine tuned better. Take CaRe

I'm not really much of a tool gal, just know the basics, but I'm always looking for ideas to surprise my hubby. Thanks!

good video thank you!

I recommend adding a Victorinox Huntsman. It provides smaller and thinner knife blades than a single blade locking pocket knife, and multiple tools (scissors, flat driver, cap lifter, Phillips driver (the fine flat tip on the can opener), can opener, small wood saw, awl, parcel hook, and cork screw). In addition to opening a corked wine bottle, the cork screw can be used for untying knots, removing staples, scratch marking, and holding a fine flat screwdriver, fine tweezers, and toothpick). It is the main knife I carry because it is so useful. I bought a suspension clip to keep it vertical in my pocket. Also, consider a Mora Companion fixed blade knife. It is inexpensive, light weight, durable, versatile, and proven. Although. not highly useful in an urban environment (except for maybe food prep), it becomes more useful as tree density increases.

Fam stop saying ah after every sentence
