You’re on. ☺️

[@JaVvii3]

@@MarcusCreatesthat’s more than 4 of us to watch it lol

[@richbeck1356]

For some reason, each time I watch, I think Marcus is on the bridge of a boat and he’s the captain.

[@MarcusCreates]

Hahaha. That’s very random.

[@P-RJ7]

As a bit of a knife nerd, super glad to see you rocking a Vosteed instead of James Brand - I understand you never want to close any doors in regards to working with companies, but showcasing quality materials at reasonable prices definitely catches a wider audience.

[@jb26]

More bags need that orange liner. I had an MSR backpack and it was super easy to find things.

[@kuyagords]

I would love a video on the history and making of Tomoe River paper

[@MarcusCreates]

Okey dokey. You have to promise to watch it though.

[@apistosig4173]

The Arkfeld UV is an awesome tool. The OClip is fantastic hand-free option too - wonderful in the tent.

[@B4CK4REVENGE]

I’ve found myself using the Arkfeld Pro with the laser and UV more frequently than I thought I would now that I try to grab at it before walking a job, can use the laser to point or flashlight to see if we are in a dark area or don’t have power yet. Like the UV for just in case or spill detection. Only wish the laser were stronger so I could use it to present on a tv when required for work, then I’d actually carry it vs only leave it in the truck

[@great.indoorsman]

hey man, love the videos! so glad you're back creating again! and you should absolutely make a video about the paper. it might not be for everyone but your passion for it will absolutely show

[@MarcusCreates]

On it! And thanks for the positivity. Glad to be getting back into the groove.

Great video. Interesting to hear of your BMW interest. I had a 1983 BMW R80 RT. I regret having sold it before my son was born. Wish I had it to work on and maybe pass down to him. Would be a great video to show your bikes and tools.

[@MarcusCreates]

Noted. I need to do a tour of my workshop at some point. 👍🏻

[@chrisworsnop7805]

You should do a video on your pockets and the size of them and how you walk and sit down. A wallet, knife, pen, book, keys and key chain, phone, game boy etc

[@MarcusCreates]

That’s a good idea. 😂

[@JesseMorganAZ]

Hey Marcus, just a slight correction, the Miyoo Mini you showed is just the Miyoo Mini, not the Plus. The Plus is a larger size and is is a bit less portable but more akin to the original handheld size.

[@MarcusCreates]

Doh! Thanks Jesse.

[@JesseMorganAZ]

@@MarcusCreates actually I’ve just looked and they’re making the Mini again! There were issues with sourcing the smaller screen which is why they had to start making the plus, but it looks like that’s been resolved. I’ll edit my original comment.

[@914Rocky]

The toolcheck plus is amazing. It’s a work of art too.

[@MarcusCreates]

I’m a big fan

[@JonGadget]

Nice one Marcus - some great picks 👍

I'm glad Holme & Hadfield is taking off. Sucks that their stuff got so much more expensive, even for their older models.

I got a speakeasy wallet on your recommendation and I love it took a while for it to come in but worth the wait. I also got the Kaweco lilliput for my brother on his birthday so he didnt have to carry his Mountblanc every wear, he uses it every day.

[@MarcusCreates]

That’s awesome. Glad you like my recommendations. I’m always very careful to only recommend things I really like but it’s still always a risk. ☺️

[@Oscarito_us]

I'd watch the paper history video! I also agree on springing for the watch case with hinge

[@mrchiefbs]

I cant recommend the Alder Wallet by Awl and Leaf enough! It's about a month lead time but handmade on Etsy that is currently on sale for $67.50! It has been my everyday for 2 years strong and I don't want to change it. Please shout out AwlandLeaf in your next video. It's great quality.

[@MarcusCreates]

Wow. How have I never heard of it.

I have the Olight iMini 2 that is super tiny, super bright, fits in my Chump wallet, and I use it all the time (when I dropped my phone under a cinema seat last night, in fact). I wanted the Olight but the proprietary charger put me off. The mini goes into a USB outlet, which I always have on or around me. I bought it for around $30 on Amazon. Also ... please do a video on the history of the paper!

id watch that paper video. tr52 has been my favorite too but I don't think the new batch/machine is as good as the original as far as shading and line outline, which is my favorite paper quality

[@MarcusCreates]

Noted. Thanks for watching.

[@blacklyte716]

i wonder how that paper would hold up to some ink drawings and a bit of alcohol marker or highlighters, I'd say make the paper video, it sound quite interesting!

Ok will do. ☺️

[@MarcusCreates]

Okey doke. Give me a couple of weeks.

[@rafasch]

Great list, Marcus. Very diverse. A G-Shock would still fit within your price range, though.

[@MarcusCreates]

Very true. I haven’t owned a GShock in years but used to rock a Mudman. Which is your favorite?

[@rafasch]

@@MarcusCreates Hard to say. I like the square ones. Right now, I can't take the G-Shock GMW-B5000D-1DR off my wrist. Of course, we can't forget the classic Casio A168WA. Not a G-Shock, of course, but it's a watch that offers an amazing amount of value and style for an insignificant price.

[@MarcusCreates]

My first watch too. Wish I still had it.

[@MarcusCreates]

Just had a look at the 5000D. Pricey little number but a beauty. Might add it to the list 😂

I can't EDC a framed phone and a big watch box. 😅😜

[@edmondmurphy]

I’d watch the video on Timoe paper.

[@914Rocky]

That 3g isn’t $99 anymore. 😢

[@MarcusCreates]

A couple of folks reached out to me and said. Bummer. But they do sales regularly. Keep an eye out and you’ll snag one.

[@majle051]

Yeah, they have more than doubled the price... 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@vg9073]

Most of the storage stuff is unnecessary. Paying 100 dollars for a watch box or 129 dollars for a wallet doesn't ring true. I guess if you have money to burn but kind of defeats the point of EDC and strays into hobbyist expense.

[@vg9073]

A 100 dollar pen for EDC?

[@rickyhurtt5568]

Reputable? Sell a pen for 75 and then say for another 25 I'll hook you up with a clip. I mean shute I'm not surprised they don't charge another 15 for the nib.

Oh man, you got suckered by Olight. Just because somebody sends you something doesn't mean you have to shill it.

[@MarcusCreates]

I really like olight ☺️

[@IanFollett]

@MarcusCreates I'm sure. But is it recommendable compared to something like Wurkkos? It would be like if Kia would send you any car you wanted for free and give you a kickback for cars they sold to your viewers but your viewers could also buy a Lexus for less if they only knew about it. I'm not saying you're selling cigarettes to pre-treens, but your brand is like credibility and unpretentious success. You don't need that Olight money.
