Pls excuse the overly loud music from 9:50 to 11:10 ... somehow the audio volume got messed up. Sorry about that.

[@kermitthepog7063]

Lmao I thought it was an artistic choice! You say "now for the boring bit" then turn up the music to drown yourself out!

[@Northanteus]

6:50 ~ If they're on the next Titanic that sinks, their watch won't go bust at the bottom of the ocean, for the future generations to cherish decades later when they dive to search the wreckage. I thought this was obvious! 🙄 😋

[@MrDiPY]

​@@kermitthepog7063 haha, I thought exactly the same thing 🤣

[@atombomb6719]

No worries You're doing a good job 👏🏽 👍🏽

[@texmex8220]

Haha😂loved it, great choice in music the bass made me very happy

[@scenicdriveways6708]

For me, EDC means just that, "Everyday Carry". It's what you carry on your person everyday. Not a backpack you may leave in your vehicle and only carry once and a while , or items in your vehicle that you never carry, but are in your vehicle for emergencies. EDC to me what you have on your person at all times.

[@jupamoers]

Some people carry a backpack on their person once they leave the house. So that's an EDC as well for them 😉

[@ypaut]

Function is the best form of aesthetic

[@sloanNYC]

The Cyber Tool M is a nice option too. It is smaller by removing the saw and file, and a couple of the options on the back side, but with the bits and pliers with everything else still intact, is a nice trade-off if you don't need those 2 things very often. In my mind, if I need those tools, I'm going to my Leatherman. Cheers!

[@frogturtle]

True EDC is about carefully pondering your life, and carrying just enough to feel confident. Over time, you will learn what you are missing, and what is unnecessary.

[@fivevs1]

I agree with you, the cybertool line is under rated. Wish they had more versions with that awesome bit driver.

[@waltonsimons650]

I don't think it's underrated, it's just expensive and big. People don't want to spend that much on a SAK and tend to think, that a pocket knife this wide is uncomfortable.

[@ypaut]

btw from 9:54 to 11:10 the music is particularly loud, probably not intended

[@TobisTings]

Damn... thanks for letting me know. That was certainly not intended, no idea how that happened actually.

[@DarthJabba504]

4:07 I have and love the Sinn 104 but if you need to make micro-adjusts on your bracelet, I highly recommend either a strap or another watch with on the fly microadjust. Makes a huge difference in convenience.

[@abc456f]

You need some type of hank. I carry a cotton bandana with a length of dental floss and a few bandaids folded inside. A must for spills, sweat, blowing your nose, etc. I've carried some form of handkerchief since I was a kid.

[@GoldinFredddy]

Got a new job and needed to reconsider my edc because of pocket clutter. Love your videos, Thanks for the video and now in going to try to slim down my edc.

[@Langseth.]

The patina on that wallet is AMAZING!! What color is it??

[@smsdelux]

Du hast die Stecknadel vergessen. Die gehört und passt genau in das Loch in der Außenschale beim Korkenzieher am Victorinox.

[@niklasbecher8968]

How about you change out the scales on your SAK Cybertool for some aftermarket options (Daily Customs for example) if you don't like the feel of the standard plastic!

[@EduardoHenrique-nd1ro]

Amazing video! Thanks for sharing with us! Cheers from Brazil!

[@aman803]

I see Sinn, I click the like button

[@stevewilliams2895]

if you prefer the feel of the hardwood handles but prefer the cyber tool as a tool. why dont you just swap the scales between the two. and have the wood scales on the cyber tool?

[@ThomasSelig]

You do know that you can easily buy third party scales and pimp up your Cybertool (or any 95mm Victorinox)? You can buy plain wood scales from Victorinox and put them on your Cybertool. I have done similar with my Cybertool L, which now featured copper scales (with all slots for tweezers, pen, the pin and the toothpick, which I replaced with the Firefly). So now I don't only have the most functional Victorinox by my side -- but also the most stylish one.

[@TobisTings]

Thanks! Yes, that is something that I am currently looking into. Any brand recommendations? I haven't found the right ones yet (and the ones I like are currently unavailable).

[@vijaybhogal456]

Nice video, I enjoyed you tarus camp wallet video aswell. you have alot of items in you pocket and you wallet is jam packed for a minimalist wallet. I can not imagine walking around all day with that many items.

[@M3LTUP]

I have the swiss Army tinker and the spartan. I like them for edc. because they are pretty light. Depends where im going.

[@parawatch1761]

They are aftermarket scales for most models of SAK’s. They’re super easy to change as well.

[@TobisTings]

Thanks! I am currently looking into different aftermarket scales/options. Just haven't found the right ones yet.

[@jamescgarrett6356]

Thank you for a very informative, and well put together video. I share several items/themes with you - I own a Sinn 104, iPhone/Apple Watch, Rovyvon torches and Swiss Army knives. My wallet, though, is one I hand made myself in a style similar to the Open Sea models (but modified to accept U.K. notes). However, my 104 seems to take a back seat these days in preference to my Grand Seiko SBGN027 (high accuracy quartz is a winner for daily carry to me!) and I tend to carry the smaller Classic Swiss Army knife with Alox scales and the smaller Aurora A5x torch. I’ve made a small leather pouch/carrier for these last two that effectively acts as my key-fob. I’ve also made a small, brass version of a KeyBar for my 4 common keys. For me, this is ideal. It easily fits in pockets/on my person. If I need anything more heavy-duty, I pack a pouch with a lighter, pen and notebook, Leatherman multitool, power brick, charge cables, zip-ties, paracord, small first aid kit, car cigaret USB and U.K. wall USB plugs, SIM tools and USB memory stick, and a small sewing kit in it. This gets dumped in my work brief case during the week, or switched to my satchel if I go out at weekends or in the evening. Keep up the good work, and keep well :-)

[@hopey10able]

What camera and lens did you use to film this video. Nice look.

[@petercruz1993]

I switched from the A8 to the A5. It’s the same torch, but has just red and white in the sides. The UV a gimmic imo, but the red and white lights are both useful. Because of this you can access the side lights with 3 clicks instead of 4, which honestly makes a big difference l. The side lights are amazing when camping. You can hang it from the ceiling. They’re also good for lighting up rooms. Also I got the natural bulb 5000k. It’s more like an iPhone light lol. I prefer it’s considerably. This will be my main torch for a while, although I’d like to see another button on the torch though. One for the main lamp, and another for the side lamps.

[@TobisTings]

Thanks for the heads up! I might just have to take a closer look at the a5.

[@donaldcarr8766]

A low budget edc keyring torch is the S12 based on the rovyvon.

[@Imme...1]

I just carry everyone all day at work so just a Leatherman skeletool and ledlensor p3 ganzo 759 been over 6 years and works

[@michaelputro5766]

Great video my friend. I personally have carried the swiss champ since 1984. It is a smaller predecessor of yours. Love Sinn dive watch, and your light is a good choice. I'm curious why no lighter. Even a little Bic lighter is a great accessory to carry. I just subscribed so keep the videos coming please. Thank you....

[@TobisTings]

I rarely ever need a lighter but if I do, I have one in my EDC Pouch (in my backpack) :)

[@zachbills8112]

Pretty sure you can just swap the scales between the swisschamp and the cybertool.

[@cshevlin]

EDC is essential!

[@Ferien7]

Another good vid. Do you still have the Junghans Max Bill 38?

[@TobisTings]

Yes, still have it, still love it (its a 34mm though). I usually gravitate more towards the Sinn 104 during winter and go back to my Junghans Max Bill in spring :)

[@PapaTony28]

what's the name of the wallet please?

[@erich964]

You only live once EDC I carry every day. Koenig, arius McGizmo, haiku, Mont Blanc, pen, Panerai submersible , it makes me feel good, and I use them every day. They don’t sit in a safe.

[@vercingetorix444]

I once visit Shiddenfarden Manor and was welcome as a wholeful guest just as Tobias Farden tell me then, you don't need to carry such nice things IF you carry gold in anus which can be use for purchase things

[@saldomino1639]

Great Video ! I also love the Swiss Champ !

[@Northanteus]

I don't drink alcohol, so I don't drink wine, but when someone wants me to open a bottle of wine, I put the bottle on the ground, right between my feet, push down with one hand and pull up with the corkscrew in my other hand. It feels easier that way. Try it. 😁

[@zakburford9553]

Excellent video. Where did you get that leather key case/organiser?

[@TobisTings]

Got it from Amazon. Brand is called Donbolso :)

[@MrDiPY]

I like the look of the credit card multi tool, where did you get that from?

[@TobisTings]

Its from a brand called MyEDC. They are available on amazon.

[@parttimegeekswe7069]

The Rovyvon A8 lives on my keychain, one of very few true edc items for me. Great video, as always! 👌

You know you can easily switch the scales from champ to cybertool, right?

[@Passively-Prepared]

Carrying the cyber tool L or Swiss Champ on person is wild lol but I give you lots of respect. Feel like a Leatherman bond + bit adapter & bits + Farmer X would be more natural? I know it’s heavier, but may be able to play Tetris with them better? This is the first video I’m watching, so I am assuming you are dealing with European knife laws that’s why I say Leatherman bond. If not l, a good ole Wave+, Charge+, Rebar, Super tool 300, or Arc plus bits would be a more natural fit than a large SAK like that? I just always assumed it would be weird having a handle that thick to cut an apple or open a box or use a screw driver or saw wood…

[@aderz8284]

where can you get the replacement for the toothpick??

[@TheGrenadier97]

How do you carry the Cybertool?

[@TobisTings]

In the coin pocket of my jeans. No idea how I am going to carry it in the summer though as I usually wear lighter pants (chinos, shorts). Probably either with some sort of pocket clip or I will opt for a different knife.

[@TheGrenadier97]

For shorts, consider a pocket clip on the keyring, clipped to your waistband and dangling inside the pocket. I do that sometimes when I'm near the beach.

[@blazcampa9991]

Do you still wear your Junghans Max Bill?

[@daveyjones5702]

there's 3rd party wooden scales you could buy. and a whole slew of other materials too.

[@TobisTings]

Thats definately something I am considering. Not found the right scales yet though. Also, just in terms of functionality and durability, these cellidor scales really aren't that bad.

[@daveyjones5702]

@@TobisTings personally i think a swiss army knife is like a ferrarri; they come in all colors but they really ought to be red :P the ruby scales are my favorite though. always thought they looked cheesy in the pictures, but after buying a cybertool i fell in love with them. they look industrial and futuristic, yet retain the iconic swiss army redness.

[@prod.deathwish]

your edc is hella clean man

[@CristianRaoul]

You can buy custom scales if you want. But I agree with you (or you are unknowingly agreeing with me hahaha) I have been into EDC since I was 16 yo and once I discovered the online community I really always struggled to understand the need for 400 or 600 USD knives other than for collection and not using them around. Victorinox knives are relatively cheap and very resistant for day-to-day use and even can be abused in the outdoors. I wish there was a custom marker based in Europe to remove some of the useless tools and slim it down. The cyber tool is on my list but I use a compact and a manager that has lived on my keys since I was 18yo. For bit drives, I managed to buy a leatherman bit holder replacement and I have the bit kit. Soon I will buy the ratchet extender and it's probably the best and most compact solution I could find. Hope this can help and inspire others.

[@davejenx]

I still use my Swiss champ which I bought in 1982 and used throughout my military career

[@TobisTings]

Thats awesome!!

[@crux314]

Nitecore Tikki is superior (not gimicky) but in the charging port

[@GamerBivy]

[@jammies701]

Nice vid mate

[@donaldcarr8766]

Victorinox knife is too big for edc in my opinion, upto 3 layer is practical. A good combination for me in size is the Victorinox farmer alox combined with the Swiss card nailcare.

[@TobisTings]

I previously carried a Swiss Army 7 (very similar to a farmer) and a Leatherman Style PS. So very similar setup to what you are suggesting. I might go back to this in the summer.

Those swiss army knives are waaaay to big for the pocket for EDC. 3 layers at most, 4 if your going camping or something, but ideally 2 layers are best.

[@Richard_Barnes]

Whilst I'd got the Grain wallet on my wish list and then on order, it was your review which I kept coming back to, to see all of the details about it. The one thing I am disappointed with though is with my natural shell Grain wallet, there is no leather smell. It's the only shell in my collection that has no smell and I don't get that at all. However, it is the perfect set up for me. I get the cards I need in it; I too have a pen slotted in; UK cash in the back and just need to choose a key or something else for that slot. I use both a Watch Ultra and my steel analogue watch all the time. I'll never be without an analogue watch. I don't understand your mini rant about Rolex when you have a shell cordovan wallet which can be replaced with a £10 one and yet you enjoy your wallet! So why the comment about expensive watches? We buy them because we enjoy them, it's that simple. You'll never drive your car at 155 mph so why bother buying one that can? You don't. You buy it for other things you like about it. I don't bother with knives as in the UK it could become an issue. The cybertool knife is very tempting though. Interesting video thanks 😄👍🏻

[@pzkpfw917]

Toby, I appreciate you and I really enjoy watching your videos. However, I don't know why you gave up on minimalism? These Victorinox models you mention are too big for me, for my pocket. You cannot prepare for every possible situation in life. At first I carried the SwissTool in my backpack, but since I didn't use it for literally anything for a long time, I transferred it to the car. Okay, you have your reasons, but I can write that I really liked your minimalism about EDC. GEC #78, Olight Titanium, Leatherman PS Style,...that was the times... No matter what, made videos as much as you can. Especially about these Victorinox models you mention.
