Best Complete EDC From Walmart (Updated 2023) | Budget Everyday Carry

[@timb4425]

One of my best deals or finds at a local store was actually at a local Walmart. I grabbed 3 Buck 110 anniversary editions on clearance for $11.88. It was a great deal!

[@No-ub5ju]

3 bucks for 11 dollars ?!?!?!?!?

[@TheOutdoorsman5]

Wow

[@brysontrotman5865]

Same I found my set in the clearance section after Christmas!

My best find was the Centerdrive at Walmart. They had them locked in the case and i noticed the price for the spot they were in was $20.74. So I was able to get for that price after the store manager okayed it. I carry & use it everyday.

[@BestDamnEDC]

That's a killer deal!

[@GarrettsGear]

Man, you walked into Walmart and robbed them blind that day 😂

[@pyrosmoak53]

Hot damn what a steal @GarretsGear he sure did 😂😂

[@tobydelahoussaye8630]

One of my best finds happened to be at Walmart. Every Walmart has a clearance aisle, and I usually pass by just to see what I can see. WELL, last Saturday, I was passing through and found a Gerber Flatiron on the shelf for $25! I was excited by the find but wait, there's more! Two shelves down, I find a Buck 110 slim for $22! Solid scores on the clearance aile!

[@pyrosmoak53]

Nice score

[@bpths]

ALWAYS check the clearance aisle. My wife always complained cause I had to go look, until the one time I found an entire case of her favorite chocolate bars marked WAY down.

[@ThatImmo]

Meanwhile in Poland a Center Drive costs 180 bucks at a huge discount (200 bucks is a regular price). It's a bad country for EDCers.

[@mattsheaffer3356]

The most surprising find for me was actually at Walmart. It was the Swiss Tech 7" Ball Bearing Assisted Flipper Knife with the Green Canvas Micarta Handle. It was $29.97 and the action on it top notch. The green Micarta looks great, and it’s super light in the hand. Yeah, it’s Aus-8, but it’s $30! Love the channel, man!

[@DrockGoBLUE]

I was literally just getting ready to say this. The Swisstech imo is a way better buy than the Buck. Personally went and looked at one and had to purchase it right then and there. Great buy for the price!!

[@ryanheavilin3224]

I am going to try them the have great community reviews. They have a nice fix blade also.

[@mattsheaffer3356]

@@ryanheavilin3224 it’s on my list!

[@freecarry]

I have the Swiss Tech knives and multi tool great buys.

[@defensedad]

Hands down my best edc find is one a lot of people would likely not choose. It's my Gerber Armbar Drive. I manage a retail store so I wear dress clothes all day. That being said, I still have to open boxes and other packages on a daily basis as well as fix small things around the store. With dress slacks, edc can get tough because it can make you look a bit unprofessional if your pockets are drooping. The Armbar Drive has the tools I need on a daily basis. I absolutely love it and bought it 3 years ago on a father's day sale at Scheels.

[@shanes1112]

Haven’t been in a Wal Mart in years. Here in the Deep South, it’s a blight on the landscape. The customer service is horrible, the clientele isn’t much better. Many around here steer clear of it.

[@kahniceay0]

My best find was a Gerber Dime, found it at a walmart about 6 years ago, not sure how much it cost me now but I've kept this thing since. I just know it didn't cost much cause I've always been a penny pincher. Still going strong. Not the most impressive multi-tool but I've used it almost every day, the little box cutter being a life saver.

[@jayrdee8929]

Where is Jimmy?

[@ConansEasyDadCarry]

I legit used that $7 sling for almost a whole year, and LOVED it! My kid uses it now when we do short hikes. More a rummage than an organized bag, but there's a ton of space and it feels better than some $100 slings I've used!

[@robbkline3679]

My local Walmart had the same flash light you have in this video. It's been a solid little light for my EDC ! To be honest it's still going strong after 6months in my rotation. Would love to see more of these types of videos

[@Hungrybird474]

Same here . 👍😂.

[@kevinschmith9379]

What you’re not a college graduate how am I supposed to take your word on anything? Sir, before I take anymore of your advice, you need to go back to college and get a degree.😺

[@willienelsongonzalez4609]

“George” is Walmart’s in house fashion brand. Not sure how Walmart operates in the USA in terms of clothing and accessories but in the UK Walmart is called Asda and George is the in house fashion brand, thus everything from adult socks, underwear, T-shirts through to kids everyday wear. Hope that helps. The quality can be good, depending on what you’re looking for but it generally tends to be budget conscious clothing.

[@hendo_daily]

Best deal I've found locally was probably a gold framed picture of uncle Ricky riding a stegasaurus at goodwill for $1.50! Not really....lol but in all honesty I would say mini G2 pens at Walmart, 4 pack for $4! I love the G2s and finding the minis was a great day!

[@RikkiHernandez]

😂 let me know which Walmart you found that at

[@Glorfindel_117]

I was at Canadian Tire and noticed they had a whole row of flashlights. Stopped to look because I recently saw one of your videos about flashlights, and saw one that looked pretty good. It's by Maximum, up to 1,000 lumens. I think it was $55 Canadian? It's got a strobe, and you can twist the head to move from a beam to a wide angle light. Only issues is the clip doesnt face the right way for a hat, and it starts off bright like the one in this video. But, I prefer it starting bright for self defence, which is why I bought it. It's a pretty good light, but I've never had one before so I dont know if its actually good or not. It feels hefty and substantial despite being really thin. It's come in handy a few times since getting it though, so thanks for pointing out lights for edc!

[@rendezvous5784]

Best buy I had picked up at Walmart was is that Ozark Trail Axis lock knife they offered at Christmas time, six bucks! A few minor adjustments and some oil, it flips open and closes one-handed, it's pretty snappy. I was able to get it razor sharp too. And again six bucks!

[@Ember13-j4j]

At Walmart got the clone wave from ozark. Good luck everyone

[@YaBoySpike]

That coast light has a memory as well so you can pick from the 2 modes

[@raymondh.462]

Best find at a store was a cheap coast edc light that actually held up and I wasn’t afraid to lose because of how cheap it was. 😂 thank you for all the value you give to this community. 🎉 “Carry on”

[@loganrush62]

I love my buck 110 lightweight it's very light and since it has a backlog it's very durable the 420 high carbon steel has a very good heat treat and the edge lasts forever I've probably sharpened it like 3 times bought it a year ago and never been more happy the only downside is it doesn't have a pocket clip but that's fine I just carry on the belt with the pouch love the videos keep up the good work and carry on

[@Operationicecube]

Found a CRKT Lucas Burnley Obake at my local Walmart. Slapped a button loop on the sheath and have been wearing it on my belt everyday for the past 6 years. Pretty sure it was in the $40 range. Best Walmart purchase ever.

[@IvIidnight]

Would like to see the best EDC you can get from an Army/Navy Surplus Store.

[@IvIidnight]

My best EDC finds are always at one of them.

[@MilesLee-Rogers]

A year ago or so I found a kershaw blur at my local Walmart and honestly it’s been one of my absolute favorite knives for edc. I ended up buying the s30v version of it because I liked it so much. At one point I took out the spring to have a non assisted version of it and it legitimately felt better than it did before even though I thought it was perfect beforehand. My only complaint is the finish durability but that’s kinda whatever

[@JS-oh7xu]

The EDC find that has probably been the most impactful in my carry was finding TŪL pens at Office Depot. Saw them, liked the way even they looked and bought some, and have carried one ever since. Even upgraded to their full metal version!

[@steezypants]

Got the brass looking one. Had it on me errday for a year + and the patina is in full effect and it is gorgeous. It is also the most smoothest loveliest enjoyable pen to write with

[@americansuperdad5769]

I'm a pen connoisseur, and the best pens I've ever used are the U.S. Government pens I accumulated in the Army and the Zebra gel pen. Edit: I found a telescoping magnet at Auto Zone that is absolutely fantastic and very handy!

[@evansale4018]

Mannnn for Walmart, the new Swisstech stuff is awesome. The $50 multi tool and both $29 flippers are incredible. Been waiting two weeks for my Walmarts to get them and finally found them the other day.

[@missourirebel9669]

My local WM just got them in

[@evansale4018]

Mine did too. I first found out about them and searched every Walmart around me for a good two weeks haha

[@UnclothedPrimate]

My all-time best find was in 2000 at a K-mart that was closing to become a Walmart. I found a Leatherman wave (original version) for $20. I managed to convince my dad to buy it for me. Best piece of kit a 16 year old could hope for at the time.

[@Joshcrabb7]

I found a victorinox classic sd at a gift shop that sold random Knick knack things in Cloudcroft New Mexico.Originally I thought it was something I’d just throw in a drawer when I got home. But it’s ended up being a part of my edc since. I’ve used it for almost everything from changing batteries in kids toys to cutting threads off of my shirt. Definitely a great find.

[@johnnyg287]

I like to carry a pocket notebook with me. If you go to hobby lobby, every other week they have the journals/sketchbooks 40-50% off. They have a 3- pack of pocket sketchbooks that are Moleskine-esque that you can get for like $3. Great find that won’t break the bank. Love the vids!

My latest and greatest edc find was at Walmart where I got the kershaw leak by Ken onion. I love the snappiness of this knife 🥳 Also I’d love to see you do this at a Sportsman’s Warehouse if you have one in your area 🎉

[@stevecastellarin698]

The best finds I've had at a local store was Schrade machete in one of the bargain bins at Tractor Supply. It cost under $10 - and is still working like a champ!

[@MorningBonner]

My best edc find was my Leatherman Micra at the local Ace Hardware. The Ace use to suck but came under new ownership. Shocked me at everything they did have.

[@DylanLey]

Pretty good selection at Walmart! Really interested in that $8 utility knife!

[@JaMRacing]

Best find was at ACE hardware store Leatherman Wave PLUS on sale for $49.95. I bought 2 cause I couldn’t believe it. They marked the price incorrect but still honored it. 😂

[@therealchrisbrown24]

My cool edc find was the write in the rain notebooks pack of 3 at Menards. Have not seen them at any other menards I've been to in my area.

[@SexyMistaMustard]

I think one of the things that has surprised me the most over the last year is how much I like not having keys in my pocket, I only like to carry my truck key and a house key, I randomly stumbled across the gerber mullet at bass pro and love it! I use it all the time to have my keys on my belt loop and open bottles with it, even use the flat blade pry thing to tighten tripod plates on my camera

[@Shannon_Robbie]

I'd like to do this buy my car has a key fob or a Remote keyless system as opposed to an actual key.

[@chodies.S.C]

Really new to edc but my best find is probably the coast flashlight you mentioned in this video! Super compact and easy to carry

[@DaHeetFiveOh]

I've picked up a few Walmart items, that I carry everyday, without the intention of buying EDC items. When my old wallet wore out, I bought a temporary nylon one at Walmart. I don't know the brand, but I've carried if for about 3 or 4 years. Still going strong. I impulse bought a Buck 293 inertia several years ago for $35 or $40. It's now my #1. Same thing about my $100 G-Shock GW-M5610 solar digital watch. Even though I tend to prefer analog watches, I really like the toughness of the G-Shock, so I have worn it the most for the psst couple of years. When the full size Leatherman started bugging me, I got a $25 Gerber Dime, either at Walmart or Academy. It's always with me,, but on my keychain, where I use the pliers, several times a day. Finally, after misplacing my utility knife, I bought an $8 Sheffield flip open, lightweight, plastic handle, full size double bladed knife at Ace Hardware, maybe 5 years ago. I've since found my Sidewinder Edge, but guess what??

[@danstewart7834]

I was traveling in Vancouver Island and had been looking for somewhere I could pickup a decent knife as I hadn't brought one. Spent the hole 2 weeks looking buying a few things then found a House o knives shop 20 minutes away from my accommodation picked up a REALLY NICE BRASS SCALLED BIG TUSK arete.

[@thefeatheredfrontiersman8135]

I never really thought about how much my EDC and backpack together costs. I'm shocked to say that depending on what pair of pants/jacket I'm wearing 1200$ Worth of equipment with my backpack. If I'm hunting it nearly doubles. I'm shocked I'm now no longer bottom status anymore.

[@engineeredlifeform]

'George' was the in house fashion brand at UK supermarket chain 'Asda', the George brand was founded in 1989 as a partnership between English fashion designer George Davies & Asda. Walmart bought Asda in 1999 and got the brands, but I guess it wasn't as successful over the pond. Davies formerly designed for high street fashion outlet 'Next' in the UK.

[@JamesDeMarcoForReal]

My best pickup is a Milwaukee Fastback at my local Lowes! Coolest find "in the wild" was a Fenix PD40R flashlight just hanging out near the checkout at my local security uniform store (they generally don't have much quality stuff, I was shocked 😮)

[@Normet2]

At Walmart I bought the $7 Energizer LED Keychain Flashlight, Mini Pocket Flashlight, Water Resistant LED Light. I was surprised by it and even bought one for my Dad and he keeps his in the car. I didn't buy it for EDC but turned into one!

[@YTCrossHair]

I just picked up a coast px15r and dickies wallet from wal mart yesterday, I have the Kodiak light and it stopped working. The coast is big for edc but as a mechanic I need a light with a lot of lumens to see.

[@syndicate4417]

Do not buy a Gerber multi tool. They cost leatherman prices for more gimmicks, fewer tools, and lower quality. The jaws on gerber pliers are cast, and leatherman pliers are forged. I have broken gerber multi tools in two twisting and cutting chicken wire. (I know that’s a semi-strenuous task, but something you expect a pair of pliers to be able to do) If you’re gonna spend leatherman money, or even 10-20$ LESS than leatherman money, just get a leatherman. In general, gerber just doesn’t make good products for the money.. but, I do understand this video is about Walmart products so

[@greenwoodsbushhogging6704]

The best find in a while is in the camping section of Walmart. It's a little day bag cover in molle strap for like $12 bucks. It makes the perfect junk bag to keep in the truck with some first aids, notebooks, etc. Everything I need to walk properties for quotes. Sadly, I'll probably not see the live stream, but I'm easily found on Google search via my name. I'm just down the road in York County too.

[@briankinney7022]

My Walmart just got the new Swiss Tech line of knives. I picked up the Wirdig and the Gerundit folders. For $30, they are exceptional with the action being phenomenal. DO NOT get the Taktstock. SOG used to make it and it was terrible. I had one and threw it out.

[@raym6764]

My BEST EDC find was at a HomeDepot I picked up a LED Maglite Solitaire. It doesn't throw that far or is the brightest BUT its a tiny light that finds its way into my pocket everyday for the last 5+ years. I think I picked it up for about $10?

[@etzequielcovarrubias2045]

I had to make an emergency EDC in Autozone a few years ago, my bag got stolen, Nothing significant, off-brand Swiss army, multitool, lighter, flashlights, and knife, The knife was a little jewel a surebilt folding that still stands today. rusty but sharp enough to cut everything.

[@leksasdf]

My best local EDC find was at a flea market. They had a random aliexpress "thrower" flashlight for 2€. The flashlight was absolutely shit but had 2 decent quality 18650 cells, which greatly pleased me as a flashlight nut.

[@tevmanuelable]

i found at least 5 leatherman on clearance at walmart over the years. 2 waves, Rev, Supertool 300, and a wingman. I also got my Gerber Suspension & Gerber M400 multitool. All for Maybe $20 or less with most being under $10.

[@dcus55]

Hi taylor, we dont have walmart here in the UK but I was once in Bristol in the UK and found an old school tool store and I bought a Hulafors fixed blade for probably $10 US its fantastic for heavy work but I cant carry it for UK legal edc, I've got some SAK and leatherman stuff but Id really enjoy this carry. Love the channel, thanks for your content. Ben

[@chrisk4418]

Guess I can't win as I am based in the UK and it'd be a nightmare for you to post the items to me but I'll talk about my experience anyway. I once went to one of my local hardware stores here in Scotland and was surprised to find the milwaukee fastback utility knife on sale (for approx. £9) and a flashlight (for approx £5) that resembled the Acebeam pokelit AA and which still works great!

Ive been on this utility blade kick as of late but realistically I will not buy a high end version.....it's a utility blade😐. I need a tough user for work and I'm not a huge fan of red so the fastbacks are a no for me. While at lowes a week ago, I found a kobalt quick release button lock utility blade with a wire clip. It checked all the boxes for me and it was around $25. Im been impressed with it so far. Interesting to read all the things you guys have found. Happy EDC hunting everbody.

[@kendon81]

about 2 years ago was passing an old army surplus store on Dublin city center one I hadn't been in since I was in the boy scouts, 20 off years before, and pocked up a Whitby cutlery folding 3 inch blade for €30 about 25-30$ depending on the exchange rate......a little flicknof the wrist and it flips out with a lovely solid click, still rock solid no movement on the blade, not quiet dead center ter placement bit then that's the way it came in the box, I don't know what steel it is, i assume it just standard stainless but takes and edge and holds it.

[@gregmarinelli4622]

I recently purchased the HART 4-in-1 Pocket Tool Utility Knife 2-Pack at Walmart and liked its compact size. The best part was the price as it ran up at .75 cents

[@deejayimm]

If you are getting a flashlight from WM, def get a coast. They are decent and can be relied on. Also, I have been carrying a WM wallet for almost 20 years now. Except for the 2 years that I carried a "nice" wallet I was given as a gift. It literally rubbed a hole through it in 2 years. Not everything at WM is junk, and sometimes cheaper is actually better quality too.

[@hatfield3656]

Hey man, working out of town few summers ago doing road construction lost my knife so grabbed a SOG aegis flk at a Buc-ee’s gas station before heading out for work, not supper sharp and the action was ok but with my line of work I beat the shit out of my gear. I was able to put a razor sharp edge on it and 3 years later it’s my work EDC knife. It’s cut everything imaginable that you would use a knife for on a road construction job and still going strong. But when but at work I’ve been running my civivi elementum(wood handle of course)

[@jdnboyy]

Well im 45...and ive had it 20yrs but it still serves me to this day...buck crosslock...i think i found on sale or clearance for 17 bucks...i still carry it to this day. I keep it on haversack.

I'd love that gerber multitool, I've been seeing the EOD version lately on the Chinese marketplaces. my best edc find of the year is a clik style buckle with a THICC 1.5 nylon belt for under $10. best belt I've ever had and it holds up (literally) well

Walmart doesn't carry Leatherman? I haven't really looked at multitools since... the 90's, but I'm pretty sure they used to sell them. That was about the only place we could shop back then for that kind of stuff.

[@Kenjrossi]

They don't sell it anymore but I got this Husky multitool that's a beast but they must have discontinued it. $8 I picked up 3 of them at home depot. Workhorse with pliers, flat head, bottle opener, Phillips, saw. It performs as well as any other leatherman I own.

[@gritnyc]

For a budget wallet, one can easily find a nylon product or, as I prefer, head to the candy section and get an Altoid tin. Another super-low cost option is a binder clip. They came in various widths and the prongs fold over to further secure what is held.

[@suem3980]

Walmart in the UK is called Asda and they stock Ozark gear... I got a drink flask which was inexpensive and fits in my cupholder - this is EDC to me as I constantly drink water 👍

[@BentonFrisse]

My best find was a CRKT CEO on sale, last one they had, 35 bucks! I had been eyeballing them for quite some time to pack into the office instead of my Alox Bantam and it was like destiny finding it at my local mom & pop sporting goods store!

[@javicpt98]

One of my best finds was a Bass Pro Shop. I found some gloves that were actually liners for fishing mitts. But they were the warmest gloves I ever had and I only paid about $10. It sucks that they were stolen from my car along with my Gerber prybrid.

[@johnathonpatterson2816]

Not gonna lie edc at Walmart can be kinda rough but I’ve have carried that particular wallet for about 2 years or so and it works great feels well in the pocket patina decently at least as well as can be expected. That things been in my pocket and it have no signs of giving up anytime soon. Of course I have better ones but none of them are that cheap and reliable. Give it a chance before putting it down is all I’m saying. Y’all KZbinrs got this edc world thing pretty silver platter if you know what I mean. Not all of us can have all the nice expensive tried and true pocket junk you all like to carry. I’ve watched you videos for many years but haven’t brought myself to subscribe because quite frankly if you look back at all you budget edc series you spend most of the video pointing out flaws and comparing it to all you “fancy” gear. I know you’ve “tested” quite a few of those budget carry items from aforementioned series but it seems like you are indirectly putting those less fortunate than yourself down when you compare the like of a kershaw shuffle to a spiderco paramilitary 3 you (as an example). These items are two very different worlds apart. I’ll continue to watch but youll never reach the full potential of your channel until you realize you are no longer connected to your intended target group. All this to say don’t judge a book by it’s cover. It never hurts to try something new even if at first it doesn’t look great you never know something’s potential until you allow it to blossom or die out.

[@markdavidmagat9866]

One of my fav pick ups is from Home Depot! I find really cool stuff there, when they have them, they have decent knives for fair prices, a lot of box cutters, but my fav are the flashlights. A lot of workman flashlights, but found a small untra portable one that uses AAA batteries that's similar to the one you showed in this video, but shorter and fatter, and the focus ring is kind of crap, but overall for like $15 I think for what I picked it up for, it was a steal and I love using it when I can cause my girlfriend keeps stealing it cause she loves it too.

[@flamingballzonice]

i saw one of em Buck 264 HiLine at a random walmart a few weeks back. was a bit cheaper but didn't get it cuz i dont really trust the quality of knives even from the big names at places like walmart, home depot, autozone, or anything of the sort. glad to see their quality improving though.

[@P-12]

I got a Leatherman wave plus from my local Home Depot, I love it. Later I found a that Leatherman makes an even bigger multitool, the Surge, so I bought that. I couldn't decide which one I liked better so I carry both.

[@Mt_Ev3r3st]

So far, my best find has been at my local ACE Hardware, I found a Rite in the Rain Notebook and pens. Paid 5.88 for my notebook and I love carrying it everyday!

[@caution1100]

so I have 2 good finds that I carry daily, one local hardware store was having a "going out of business'" sale I got a set of mini name brand vise grips for $5, another local hardware store. on the Monday after black Friday, I got a Gerber tri tip for $20. I'm a high school maintenance guy and I use it a hundred times a day, that front edge is great for scraping gum or stickers. holds a decent cutting edge when breaking down lots of boxes, I use it to pry stuff often and I've even used it as a hammer a few times. and the shape of the handle lets me hold it with just my ring and pinky fingers if I need to manipulate something with my other fingers, or pinch the flat of the blade between my thumb and pointer. overall a very underrated pocket fixed blade.

[@AintEvenLyon]

About to head to Walmart before watching this. I’ve been wondering about the new Swiss Tech knives and if any of them would make a good EDC knife. I may look for that Gerber you found though.

[@Pritam043]

I am assembling a stationary EDC Altoids kit. Please suggest me - 1) Best glue stick or liquid glue which can be used many times 2) Slim compact stapler

[@philadelphiabornandraised]

I don't have many fancy or really well made knives I usually stay under $100 bucks but the main reason I'm commenting is I was just looking at that same buck at Walmart a few days ago I didn't end up getting it I saw the civivi mini praxis I ended up going with that . Walmarts selection especially at the bigger Walmarts has definitely gotten better

I thrifted a Buck 055 at my local Goodwill bins Store , for $ 3.89 a lbs here in Los Angeles... Thought that was cool.

I found a Rat 1 for $30 and a Tenacious for $25 on clearance at Walmart I no longer have them but they were great finds. Also got a 120 yr ann Buck 110 fir $17 still have it and carry it in my go bag.

I have a similar wallet branded Levi that I bought at Walmart and it has held up great no real wear other than it forming to my cards and I've carried it everyday for several years. Also I'm not someone who doesn't appreciate quality as I carry a sig 365, a benchmade redoubt, and wear a samsung galaxy watch but sometimes things just work so why not use them

That light was rated IPX4, yeah I'll just wait on my $30 sofirn or wurkkos IPX68 flashlights to ship from china.

I actually found a gerber two pack box cutter set. A tiny box cutter in black and a liner lock style bulky box cutter that package did come with 5 extra blades. I also found the Gerber pledge for $22 and it was a gift set, the pledge and a mini paraframe.

One of the best EDC deals I got was on Ebay. I bought a Leatherman Micra almost in new condition for $4.00. I carry that thing everywhere.

I bought the Gerber sumo and the Work Sharp Precision adjust at Academy and I'm happy with the purchase the Sumo is a great knife for the money.
