The BIGGEST Mistake People Make Getting Into EDC

[@bw25908]

The biggest mistake people make when getting into EDC is buying gear that they see everyone else carrying online, and not gear that suits their needs. Then they end up with a load of gear they don’t use. Identify your needs and buy gear accordingly. Also, buy what YOU like. Just my input!

[@MSMcKenzieJr]

Jack Keighley you talk sense

EXACTLY , who the f needs this prybars ?

[@JulioRegis]

I'm glad I'm not the only one to think so... At first EDC looked cool but now I feel like it's mostly waste of money

[@alextaplin7354]

Ha ha, I agree. I do carry a prybar though it's a brass bar with an African Blackwood top bar it is on a finger length leather loop and the back is engraved with 'Wabi-Sabi' in kanji which reminds me that there is no point in not using my kit just to keep it clean. I mostly use it to flip around and fidget with and barely ever use it as a tool although it has came useful opening cans of varnish.

@@BrandonGavin_EDC Yes and no. I mean, there is the O Pen 2 that has a very good light (for size) built in. And it's a helluva pig sticker if needed. And you can put the space pen refill in it, so win win. Also, by the "a pen is a pen" logic, you would almost have to say "a car is a car" or "a bicycle is a bicycle". But people like their things their ways. All 7 billion of us want something a lil different.... Plus art.

I got into EDC because of my Grandpa. He gave me his pocket knife and showed me how to whittle tent pegs! We pitched his WW2 tent in the yard and I would camp out with my wagon, my dog, and my Chips Ahoy cookies.

[@norby0418]

Great video, but speaking of “EDC” I only recently heard the term EDC about 5 or so years ago. But in reality I have been EDCing for over 45 years! I’ve been carrying a pocket knife since I was 8, I’m 67 now. I carried a knife daily all the way through high school along with wallet, keys, pen & a flashlight as needed. In the Army I carried a Buck 112 and a SAK Spartan. As a cop same stuff but added a Solitare (still carry but upgraded to LED) All this was years before the current EDC trend. Big thing for me is I’m not really a big fan of modern tactical folders. SAKs, Bucks, Gerber LST, & traditional folders for me!

[@tomjenkins5637]

so called knife guys are making up words almost weekly ,they might need to hit the gym it appears alot of knives are too heavy for them

[@tomjenkins5637]

[@chriscon8463]

The way I see it, you don’t really “get into EDC”. Everyone has their own EDC, whether they realize it or not. EDC is simply what you carry on yourself regularly. Some of us choose to carry more things, in order to make life easier for ourselves & be prepared. What we “get into” is watching & drooling over what other people are spending $ on & seeing what’s trendy...

[@robertf6409]

Being "into" something means going into more depth or treating it as a hobby unto itself. Most adults drive but being "into cars" is a different concept.

[@dragon-id5uj]

yeah i'd also say the 'optimization' factor is a big draw ffactor as well. leveling up your loadout with time and experience as well as tailored to specific needs and self expression... lil bit deeper than flexing dollars and trends. but hey to each their own

[@ryejack]

I enjoy seeing your videos that step out of the box. EDC doesn't have to be variations the same 5-8 items every time. I would get bored with that too! Your truck video was fun to see a different take on the overall theme. I fully support more videos that think outside the narrow EDC box! Also, looking forward to seeing what you do on your 2nd channel!

[@Grabehn42]

I actually got into EDC because of this channel and went looking for a proper pen and multi tool to carry around for work. Decided on the Gerber Dime since I only have my pockets to carry stuff and it's honestly one of THE best buys I've ever made.

A new head/LED emitter. BTW, the comment about Canada not having a pandemic ban on Americans drew a wince when I noticed that this was videoed on July second. The world has changed quite a bit since then. I put the blame on the United States BTW, and I live here.

[@peterolson823]

At the tire shop yesterday and the two guys were looking for a particular tire size. I whip out the Olight S1R-II. Dedicated flashlight ftw.

[@louisrandall2007]

I actually started collecting knives after getting into EDC. My wallets, flash light, and others didn’t change much. But I keep finding different styles and design of knives fascinating, especially the budget knives. I love finding a freshly designed budget knives. I won’t stop collecting but it would probably be a long time before getting into that $500 line.

You absolutely nailed it on your point about costly materials. I use this account purely for commenting on other videos, but I’ve been wanting to start an actual account where I upload my own content. EDC and knives are areas of interest for me. A big realization I had about EDC when first learning about it as a subject is that literally everyone alive has naturally had an EDC, going back to caveman days. Ug and Og EDC’d sticks and sharp rocks. EDC really boils down into two categories: Things that are practical, and things you enjoy having with you. Some EDC kits put more emphasis on practicality, others on personal taste. The truth is, carrying a $300 piece of EDC equipment is always going to be more a matter of personal taste than practicality. There is no one knife, pen, flashlight, wallet, key organizer, watch that has $300-worth of purely practical use. As an example of prioritizing practicality over personal taste, my favorite pen to EDC is the humble Bic Round Stic. It does just as well as, if not better than, any other pen I’ve worked with.

[@johnnyringo2185]

I think the major problem (I fell into this for a little while) is people buy a bunch of crap they don’t need or use. I’ve got so many little gadgets and gear bought over the years that sit in a drawer bc I simply don’t need it day to day. I also agree with you in that people jump to what they believe is the best knife or flashlight or whatever and then realize it’s not a design that works for them. Start budget, like less than 100 total for all your items, swap things out here or there and figure out what you like, then refine it with quality items

I think when getting into EDC (and you eluded to this) you also need to evaluate what YOU are going to use. I don’t carry a flashlight except in my Jeep because I really don’t use one very often at all, others use one daily so it’s a great investment. I feel like a lot of people just jump right into wanting ALL the gear and they don’t really evaluate what they are actually going to use.

[@frogturtle]

Long post alert, intended for people looking for a second opinion on how to build an EDC. The way I approach my EDC is something like this: 1. What do I generally need/want to carry tools for? 2. What tools excel at doing as many of these things as possible while taking up the least amount of space? 3. What am I actually paying for? So let's walk through a common scenario most EDCers will consider, which is buying a knife: 1. What do I generally need/want a knife for (my personal reasons, may be different from yours) I live in an apartment in an urban environment, but I love doing things outside such as day hikes with my dog, kayaking, soccer, etc. So let's break that down: - Everyday tasks like slicing food, opening packages, cutting loose threads off clothes, etc. - Casual outdoor use for day hikes and kayaking such as whittling or cutting cord - Sports-related usage such as cutting adhesive wraps and picking dirt out of small nooks - Emergency usage such as cutting my dog or myself free from entanglement - Self-defense - Fidgeting 2. What knife is great for all or at least most of these things? Personally I carry the Benchmade Bugout. It's stupidly lightweight and easy to carry, has an excellent decent-sized blade that can handle 99.9% of my tasks, is very durable for what it is, and is super fun to flip open and closed. And I also I think it looks very minimalist and cool. It's not the ultimate heavy-duty survival knife, nor is it my first choice for self-defense, but it covers so many bases at once in such a lightweight package. It's a great EDC option for me. 3. What am I actually paying for? Minimalist design and good functionality with a high quality blade steel. That's it. Yes the scales are plastic, but I don't need them to be anything else. What tasks could I not do before that would only be possible with the 300 dollar carbon fiber version? None. Would it be nice to have carbon fiber scales and S90V blade steel? Of course, but from a practical standpoint it doesn't really offer additional value for me. Good design, versatile functionality, and portability are king. Sometimes premium materials are a part of that package, other times it's just for show. The Bugout is a great example of that. --- Some other items I carry that follow my EDC mindset: Fisher Space Pen - Closes to small size, opens to normal size, writes upside down and in various conditions Olight S1R II - Small, clips to a bunch of stuff, lots of useful modes, powerful, easy to charge Zippo Slim Lighter - Reusable/refillable, small, fun to safely fidget with, useful for camping/outdoors (especially if you seal it). I personally don't smoke but I appreciate its other uses so I carry one. Paracord quick-release bracelet - I wove this myself using a tutorial video. It's a smaller width and comes apart with one pull, not like most ones you have to spend 5 minutes unraveling. Also much easier to put on/take off. Ridge Wallet - I went with carbon fiber for this one just because it won't dent if I drop it or sit on it weird, also very lightweight. Honestly I wish it had an ID window, I may replace it. --- Hope this was helpful to someone. Your EDC should serve you well and in as many ways as possible without being a burden to carry around. Whatever tools you decide to get, make sure you feel satisfied at the end of the day. Good luck!

But the other channel reflecting more aspects of you is probably better suited to be known as your name than this channel which is catered.

[@SteelHex]

I’ve been doing EDC before the term was invented. I enjoy beautiful pricy high quality items as much as the next guy, but I found that the things I actually carry Every Day are practical and economical stuff that I don’t mind using hard. Today the design of the item and its niche within my system decides whether it gets bought and carried.

[@over9k_eber]

you never know how much you need/use a flashlight until you EDC one. A must in anyone's EDC, and probably the first thing you should add to your EDC if you don't know where to start. And it doesn't have to be and expensive light plenty of budget friendly lights.

[@scottp4077]

A few things to always carry. Pen, knife, second knife, FLASHLIGHT, lighter gun, spare magazine. I carry a note pad and aluminum pen and use it almost as much as my flashlight. When I need a light, I dont want to have to pull out my phone and waste the battery. Always carry an independent light. Anything else I need is in my vehicle..which goes everywhere I do.

[@powerofyes]

Good point. For a minute there it did feel like I was about to go for more expensive knives, but in the end all I got was a Boker Magnum Brachyptera to shove in my back pocket and forget, and a Civivi Praxis because from what I've seen, I figured it was the best price/value/availability combo. I literally saw a Benchmade Somethingsomething go for ~$2500 around here, so availability plays a part. And an Opinel No. 10 because it was dirt cheap and had good reviews, but that doesn't count, it's for my totally-not-paranoid bag.

Re the flashlight - I wear caps a lot and find it really handy to just slide the light onto the peak of the cap as a makeshift headtorch...works really well and super quick. Assuming you can change the direction of the clip of course!

I love those tactile turn pens! Been using mine for years

Wonderful choice as ever brother. I'm always singing the praises of the Olight i1ros on my channel. Cheers!

The biggest mistake someone not into EDC can make is watching this channel. I got linked here when I was searching for a new wallet. I just needed a wallet! Now I have several wallets including my favorite Das Offene Meer GunDeck QD and a custom Houbai 50/50 Combo I am waiting for. I recently bought a small Swiss Army knife and just yesterday I ordered a CIVIVI Elementum. Now I am looking at Keychain lights. What kind of alien voodoo is going on with this Taylor Martin guy. I am not buying a Pen though, I am drawing the line in the sand!... Great videos... umm thanks..

Keep doing your thing man. Someone out there is always gonna hate a decision you made, but that’s why you’re your own boss, because it’s your decision.

[@Wonk1971]

Do what makes you happy Taylor! The truck is very cool!

[@Ashton.everydaycarry]

I really like all of your EDC videos, but I also really love to see those different and more unique videos like you did about your new truck, or the video you did about your new PC.

I like the truck stuff homie, keep it up! Also, that Damasko watch is fly AF. Looking to pick up a Lum Tec.

Try using your hat to hold the light. Even more ergonomic. One of the reasons I carry a light that requires CR-123a 3v flashlights, they’re slightly beefier and hold better in your hand, burn brighter generally and hold well inside the band of your hate above your ear.
