SURPRISING Gear I Keep In My EDC Bag

[@T.hunstiger]

The honey stuff has been used for thousands of years for wound treatment. Honey is one of the few superfoods and one of the very few things in nature that never spoils. Love the gear, I wish I could afford more of it. Have fun camping 🏕️

[@charlescollier7217]

Thanks for this, Taylor. Three things that really resonated with me. 1) Immediately started down a propolis rabbit hole on PubMed, and this is NOT a drill! Thank you for that! 2) Knipex rules. 3) Pouches are my life savers. I don't put ANYTHING nekkid in a bag anymore. I have found sinple tool pouches of various sizes extremely useful.

[@dutchbachelor]

It keeps bothering me that people keep complaining there are so few SAKs with a Philips head screwdriver. Since I got my first SAK at age 6 or 7, I was taught by my father and grandpa to use the can opener screwdriver (that almost all larger SAKs have) for the Philips heads and not once has it let me down. Not once. Yes, you may slip a little easier and you need to be careful when applying your force, but it ALWAYS got the job done.

[@ShaunRGardner]

I’d like to see an ultralight edc setup with summer coming up

[@glassmw9823]

Is this not ultralight? If not, what weight limit and size is ultralight?

[@ajs510]

Thanks for freely showing that those Firefly toothpick fire starter things break extremely easily. I went through like three of them before one actually held up long enough to give sparks, they just snap right in half.

[@natef1212]

which side are you striking it? Its recommended to use the shorter side since its thicker

[@ajs510]

@@natef1212 Face up, with the fingernail grabber facing skyward.

[@natef1212]

@@ajs510 yeah, use the other side. its smaller but thicker

[@mushroomtip11]

Thats why i use the leatherman ratchet driver and the letherman pliers! No need for the extra weight or tools taking up space.

[@Justinator616]

I bought this after one of your other videos and it’s been really handy at keeping some of my extra gear on me without crowding my pockets. I bought the Velcro inserts from Amazon however.

[@TheShenanigator906]

Great observation with the separate knipex and Swiss army knife for being able to do 2 things at once! Made me think of one of the benefits of the GOAT tools multitool! (That thing is awesome if you ever get a chance to check one out)

[@Gadsdan]

I recently asked Leatherman about the rachet extension. They said it is not discontinued and are working on dialing in a new manufacturer to ensure quality. They didn't give a timeline for when they would be restocked but they are committed to making them.

[@jaymontana3553]

Very cute purses!! You go, Queen!!

[@BestDamnEDC]

💅🏻

[@mkflores1]

Ahahahahahahaha

[@jameshaulenbeek5931]

Propolis is awesome stuff, but I typically carry some tea tree oil - it's generally easier to come by and less expensive, works SO well. Great for injuries, sweat/heat rash, etc.

[@jimmeek8621]

You probably know this, but the SAK Fieldmaster is just like the Huntsman, except it substitutes the Phillips driver for the corkscrew. A much better deal in my view.

[@jonathancamps9853]

That time I thought I was thinking ahead/saving space by carrying a multitool, only to realize it can only do one thing at a time. Now I have more tools again. That said, Im thinking the multitool is the perfect one tool option if you only need one.

[@JakJakYee]

Wait so which table at Blade Show will you be at?

[@SussexEDC]

An awesome run down of what you're carrying. Some ideas I already and others I want to explore. Just as it should be. Thanks for sharing.

[@KaleoBolton]

the knipex and swiss army makes sense however you can just keep the leatherman bit extender on you and take it off to use it seperatly.

[@ieuandavies9007]

You should do a video of Jordan’s EDC bum bag. I wear a bum bag everyday and I’m curious what other people carry that carry bum bags everyday

[@brandontroxell9882]

cant believe how early I got to this vid! also never thought I would see the day that fanny packs "unironically" came back into style

[@MRWKFClark]

Maybe I live by the “rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it” mantra a bit too much. My EDC pouch had a SAK cyber tool, leatherman charge Ti and the knipex cobra 125(5”)

[@jeremyhollstrom7818]

Cool vid. What table will you be at?

[@dchappell]

I can see the logic of the knipex and the Swiss Army knife, I go with the alternate of a SAK and a leatherman, now granted if I’m out and about there is a spare leatherman in a toolbox in my vehicles trunk and I have a potential secondary tool. Also the sak tends to be less intimidating when I need to open a box or cut food when I’m around city slickers. 😂 10:23

[@mckenzierobida8866]

I just wanted to say that you are looking jacked these days. You have clearly put in a lot of work and it’s paying off.

[@BestDamnEDC]

Thank you! I’m trying lol

[@Jedi_Jed]

The Fanny pack has been elevated, quite literally.

[@CBRooFeo96]

Just ordered mine. Can't wait to get it.

[@matthewtickel845]

Is that a bottle of Old Forester 1910 or 1920, barely in the shot, top left corner?

[@jamiewaddell7446]

Bought it last week when it dropped and it gets delivered today 🎉

[@martykauffman]

They was some very interesting stuff, especially that honey thing

[@madmajek]

Propolis is awesome.

[@darylch597]

I was interested in that magnus thing too, never thought it’s just a blade holder… damn, why making a blade holder like that, a overkill

[@PiLLO360]

Waste of $100 bucks lol

[@999torres]

Taylor you’re looking fit brother 💪 good for you! Now if only I could motivate myself

[@DocumentNegativity]

Generic advice: Don't plan put off or wait, just do it no better time than now. Non Generic Advice: What you don't do now feels worse later even if it feels like nothing happened.

[@dutchbachelor]

Watching the video further, I can confirm on the effectiveness of the Propolis stuff. It has highly anti-inflammatory properties as well. Another natural "wondercure" that I swear by is Tea Tree Oil. I always have a small bottle around somewhere and as you usually need only a few drops per application, they last quite a while. - It helps to prevent mosquito bites and if they bit you, it helps reduce the itching. I can imagine it will do the same for bee or wasp stings. (Can't tell as I have never been stung by those.) - Applied to superficial cuts, scrapes and bruises it prevents inflammation or makes it go away on VERY short notice and makes such cuts heal within 2-3 days. - It also helped me with rashes, when I put 10-15 drops into my bath water. - On vacation, the appartment I was in had an "ant highway" running through it. After trying all kinds of commercial ant repellants and poisons without success (they kept coming back), the problem was solved almost immediately when I dripped the oil onto the entrance doorstep. Seems the ants can't stand the smell. I had to do that for 2-3 days to finally permanently "divert" the highway. However, from what I read, Tea Tree Oil is not for everyone: some can't stand the smell and others have allergic reactions to it, so your mileage may vary.

[@supersoni126]

9:28 I’ve never been in a situation where there was a nut on one end and a Phillips on the other… a nut and bolt head yes(meaning the need for a plier and bit driver with hex bits aka ratchet )….but what on earth uses a loose nut AND a Phillips head screw?

[@BestDamnEDC]

I’ve definitely needed a screwdriver and a wrench in the same moment plenty of times. Craftsman toolboxes is just one that comes to mind. Philips head screws and a nut for attaching the casters. I couldn’t fit a normal wrench in the tiny space and actually ended up using the alligator wrench on a TPT lol

[@texasfirst1836]

Could not justify $30 + on the Knipix pliers but had the same issue, got a 4” Crescent brand crescent wrench and 4” pliers. Thanks for the video

[@007Jmoney]

Trust me it’s worth it. $30 for tools that will last four lifetimes is definitely worth your money. I use mine all the time.

[@mattali77]

Just bought the Titanium Pocket Strong Box With Loop - Gen 2 I have been looking for something like that for a time now …. Thanks Tyler

[@dommer256]

I thought you guys called it a fanny pack?

[@manashdb]

Depends. If it's a real man carrying it, you can call it a fanny pack and be comfortable with it but if it's someone like this guy with supple A cups and a confused sexuality who likes hanging out with bearded guys, call it a bum bag.

[@albertoa.rodriguez-toro3277]

Been loving mine since I snagged one! Stays in my center console!

[@StAustin101]

Will the CC Bum bag return or is it a one time product? I saw it earlier today and was thinking about buying one and 2 hours later they are sold out.

[@brandonreyes7841]

I got the same waxed jacket it’s my favorite

[@Owl566]

What jacket is it?

[@811stever]

There is the geek side of me that can't get enough of this stuff...(Great Channel by the way). Then there is the smart ass side of me visualizing.... a Cartman EDC Southpark Episode. Bum bag? , if that's the English term for butt, remember it was one joke that ruined the entire rollerblading industry.

[@ashleygovender4104]

Thank you for awesome videos as always.

[@anthonypeak1]

Dealbreaker for me is if the strap is smaller than 1.5 inches. Anything smaller is just not comfortable when the bag is packed. I wont mention the name of the brand but a popular sling bag nailed it w their straps being wide

[@CB-zf2zr]

will it fit a g19

[@joshgonzalez2885]

Hell yeah. Started watching this at 4:58 MST and just snagged one 😂😂

[@davidmorgan6896]

How many bit driver kits and knives and flashlights do you need? Why no first aid kit?

Some really cool items here. Very interested in the Propolis Tincture but that link doesn’t go to the product and I can’t find it on the web. Don’t suppose you have a direct link?

[@BestDamnEDC]

He doesn’t sell it online because it’s mostly isopropyl in the bottle and can’t be shipped that way. But you can DM him on IG or FB and see what he can put together

[@chitwngmr]

@@BestDamnEDC awesome thank you!

[@NobleSavage44]

I was expecting a version of the hobo sack, not a Fanny pack carried like a sling pack. I’m so bummed out.😂

[@montanaminuteman]

With how full my pockets get, a small bumbag would be useful.

[@skateecho]

i was watching your site earlier in the day and totally missed it that evening! hopefully ill catch it next time. looks super handy and minimal. love the look and how modular it is. hopefully youll bring it back before too long!

[@BethePandaGames]

Great review. I personal use the 'RovyVon Angle Eyes e8' Flashlight Has a strong 700l LED light that uses a lipo battery, but also support and extra AAA battery as backup. Comes with a clip that also sticks to a hat bill for POV lighting. Also some with blacklight which in sothern states is nice to have for scorpions.

[@B-RaDD]

You’d have to message them on Facebook or IG to ask. Since it has isopropyl, shipping it is a tricky thing.
