I wish I had known about this. My EDC on shift at the firehouse is very heavily modified in order to fit my needs as a firefighter on the truck. I carry a Leatherman Curl with fireman specific mods like an outside accessible scissor, pry tool, and I swapped the straight blade for a serrated blade. I plan on adding an entry tool shove knife, but I need to figure out how to fit it in the tool stack without sacrificing the necessary length to defeat certain doors/locks. That is carried in a Perilogics magnetic tool pouch with quick release belt clip that I modified to carry two much stronger magnets to ensure it doesn't accidentally open on scene without me knowing it. The belt clip is super nice to have too because I can just rip it off my belt during a fire run, toss it in the truck box, and not have it get in the way of my fire pants. I also carry a Hogue RSK that has a Flytanium Griptilian scale in stonewashed Ti that I had to modify in order to fit the RSK's unique liner. I love the Griptilian knife style and have a few of them, but I found the RSK's large leaf blade shape to be more my style. Lastly, I carry a full size Reylight Pineapple modded with a triple LED PCB, custom driver, and Reylight LAN head. I also carry a Reylight Pineapple mini with the emitter swapped for a Nichia 519 for the latest and greatest feels. Lol

Thx, and also nice to occasionally see some interesting knives beyond just the usual Spiderco/Civivi, etc., with the typical supersteel & G-10 'minimalist' look... which is understandable and practical for an edc, except for the fact that they all begin to kinda look alike.

MetrogradeGoods also makes large scalpel blade adaptors to replace the regular blade.
Mr. M must not be aware of the skeletool cx which comes in a 154 cm upgraded steel in a single edge blade. The reason I mention this is because he said he's only complaint is the skeletool is that he doesn't like serrated blades n wished it came with a upgraded steel.... Which it does as I'm surely aware that many know that.

Great submissions. I forgot about the submission deadline, but kind of good thing. My watch modding didn’t happen till last week, so would of been another modded knife scale this time with the PM2 with the predator engraved on the scales. Great submissions though. Some got me thinking of new gear I want to try out now.

Hi, @Peculiar_EDC here. Thank you very much for the share. Lovely to hear you share the same opinions on customised EDC gear as I do. The bolt action brass pen is from a UK maker called Swarf Pens and the Barlow (K’roo) was hand made by a knife maker in South Africa. If anyone is interested do message my Instagram and I’ll help to put you in contact with one of the manufacturers. I would and do recommend both.

Granted they are not brass cased watches but if your looking for a watch made from bronze check out the video "best bronze watches for 2022" from Teddy Baldassarre. shows a nice amount ranging from like $500 up to around $17k. some very nice bronze watches that im sure will satisfy anyone looking for a watch made in bronze. I've personally been looking for one myself and that video shed light on some that I didn't know about.
