My Carefully Planned Everyday Carry

My website: EDCPocketTools.com
This is the EDC that I'm carrying currently as I am in the process of moving. It's definitely more than I usually carry, but it should only be for another week or so, and then I can go back to a more minimal setup.
A new batch of CatClaws will be ready very soon! Subscribe to the newsletter on my website to get an email when they are in stock (I won't spam you).

I love videos like this where you show HOW you carry these items rather than just have the items on the table.

[@edcpockettools]

Thanks! Yeah, that's what I was going for. I forgot to mention in the video but I wear almost exclusively Carhartt pants because they all have those useful side pockets. Just for those wondering how I carry the side pocket things with other pants on.

[@michaelray3108]

Once your done moving, I would love to see a video tour of your workshop. Keep up the great content.

[@edcpockettools]

Thanks! Good idea, I'd be open to doing a tour of it once it is all set up!

[@grepora]

Treat rusted metal with phosphoric acid. I use it to revive rusted tools. If it is minimal surface rust it will either wipe off or turn grey. I pour a small amount into a plastic container with a lid and dab a small rag in it to wipe it on. Be sure to wear rubber/latex gloves and eye protection.

Reallly enjoyed this video. Hi from the UK.

[@maxlvledc]

love this! something of note, the Streamlight is NOT waterproof. Many like the functionality and size but its a major drawback imo. There are a bunch of other AAA lights worth considering.

[@edcpockettools]

That's really good to know, thanks! I agree and now that I think about it, I'll check out some other AAA-sized lights. Also, love your content! I watch your videos very regularly.

[@strikenryken]

Olight I3T EOS with a 10440 battery is what I’ve settled on for its light, compact size and output/runtime. I’ve been getting about 3 hours on low and 30 mins on high and the output is better than a standard aaa would produce while it still runs on NIMH and alkaline aaa batteries. I keep a backup battery in a modified chapstick case.

[@user-hk9du6px9x]

I like the pivot and hand switch with the flashlight!

[@petevelazquez556]

Great video. One of the best I've seen in a while. I couldn't agree with you more on the importance of carrying a power bank. I carry 2 of them. Everyone is always quick to judge until they need a charge.

[@edcpockettools]

Thanks! And you're spot on, a power bank is one of the more underrated things to carry IMO

[@thronebreaker6950]

Great video. Love the wallet the most amazing

[@lightinthedark_]

I'm with you on the philosophy. Having it and not needing it is better than needing it and not having it.

[@freddiedorris3788]

Just came across your channel, I subscribed. I really enjoy watching new channels just starting out. Great video by the way. I like the way you carry you carry your gear. Like Max said there are better lights out there. Myself , I’m a Thrunite , and Olight fan. Keep up the hood work

[@edcpockettools]

Much appreciated!

[@Flyboyminer]

Great kit and video!!

[@edcpockettools]

Thank you!

[@Robert-cd5zr]

Knipex and vise grips are a great combo

[@parjau4554]

I have that Anker PB if it is the 10,000mAh version. Really small for the capacity so incredibly convenient size for EDC.. Also have the Knipex as it is extremely useful and versatile for the size and weight - also has an incredible grip as well as long as it is rotated in the correct direction. I was going to get a Swisscard for a wallet but got the SA Alox Mini Champ for a keychain instead. I have a Leatherman Micra which has very good scissors but I just prefer the feel and precision Swiss engineering of the Mini Champ.

[@xseph]

I enjoyed that! :D Thanks!

[@sputnikone6281]

Your EDC is not strictly what most of us normally carry with us everyday, you have a complete Repairman / Mechanic / Electrician / Plumber / Decorator all purpose tool kit which is way beyond most of us carry for EDC whether at work or simply out and about I consider normal EDC to be:- a watch, a phone, a wallet with cash & credit cards, ID cards etc, car and house keys with a small Swiss Army keychain knife/multitool, a small flashlight, a larger locking bladed knife or Swiss Army multitool knife & if you have one a licensed pistol - those are normal EDC items - not your tool kit

[@Duke4ever188]

Great video regardless if you found It lengthy 😉. I’m interested in your cat-claw 🤔

[@sezary8294]

my guy carry three scissors

[@ncash331]

Great video. Greetings from germany

[@lucioweht2161]

Great video as always , i discovered you're channel after you posted the 3rd version of you're organizer in the edc subreddit If you keep with this quality of videos , i have no doubt your subs and views will skyrocket soon Keep up with the good work and greetings from ARG 🇦🇷

[@edcpockettools]

Thank you! That means a lot. I have many plans for more videos in the future :)

[@keepsurviveu]

looks good. I don't know why you need so many tools, but it's your EDC, so..

[@edcpockettools]

My EDC when I am not in moving-mode is much more minimal.

[@pretentiousname01]

That wallet is kinda sick. You should team up with someone to sell them

[@edcpockettools]

Hey, thanks! I appreciate that. If anyone wants to collaborate, send me an email!

[@ChrisJB84]

I agree with this.

[@JC_1095]

Eagerly awaiting the catclaw and mini catclaw! Any idea when it might be released?

[@edcpockettools]

The full sized CatClaw batch is almost done. Probably looking at a week from now or so. The minis are still being tweaked because Im not completely satisfied with their design yet. Sometime in 2024, hard to pinpoint when though. Thanks for the interest!!

[@Frantxis]

Buen kit edc , saludos desde el canal "Sólo tallas..y algunas cosillas más"

[@edcpockettools]

Gracias!

[@ZER0o10]

I would buy that wallet if you sell them!!

[@edcpockettools]

I'm considering it. The only disadvantage to me is that it takes a heckin long time to make, since I'm just a novice with leather crafting. I might hire someone to do it professionally for me though. That may work.

[@ZER0o10]

@@edcpockettools let us know

[@procrasti86]

edc final boss

[@tbugduoduo4767]

nice！！！

[@RenegadeBastard]

This is one robust EDC loadout! Heh heh.

[@zzzetsulive]

So you have TWO "plumbers" pliers... Shouldve gotten the other pliers that wont mar up the nuts or bolt head instead of doubling down with leatherman and the knipex

[@Flyboyminer]

What pants are those man! I've been searching since I watched this video a few days ago! Pls help 🙏

[@edcpockettools]

They are Carhartt "Rugged Flex Relaxed Fit Heavyweight Double-Front Utility Logger Jean"

[@Flyboyminer]

​@@edcpockettoolsThank you very much for sharing this!

[@jerry247]

Something is wrong with your battery, I run a fold 3 for 10 hours and end up with 30%. Streaming all day will kill it though.

[@edcpockettools]

Interesting. My Fold3 is about 2 years old, but yeah, it only lasts maybe 6-7 hours with regular use.

[@jerry247]

@@edcpockettools mine is mostly screen off use, screen on can drain a lot faster.

[@jasonthomas1556]

You wouldn’t make me a wallet like that would you ?

[@milesnevin81]

Buy a tool belt

[@edcpockettools]

Good suggestion, I do have one. It's just hard to get in and out of my truck with it on, and I don't like having to keep putting it on/taking it off whenever I go somewhere.

[@smellyone4927]

Holy gadgets wow batman you're ready BAM POW

[@vladimirkirillovskiy8056]

Why the bow strung backwards!? 😵

[@robbiewilliamson357]

heeeeck naw.. aint no way in the world i’d walk around with all that mess all day. hell you may as well wear a carpenter’s belt… or a purse…glock 32 and a pocket knife is all i can stand

[@edcpockettools]

That's fair haha. I actually do have a carpenter belt that I will wear when out on the property, but the problem with it is that it's hard to get in/get out of my truck if I do, so I'd prefer belt pouches which are more comfortable to me.

[@user-xu9uh3dw9u]

All of that crap is just gimmicky. If you really need all of those tools on a daily basis then your a handy man with real tools. All that does is weigh you down

[@StevenTroutman]

The amount of junk you carry on your person is insane to me.

[@OCD_Sparkies]

An EDC with 3 pairs of scissors is not carefully planned. This video is long, rambling, boring and you basically have a toolbox pulling your trousers down. This isn’t EDC for most people it’s more like EDC for inspector gadget.

[@edcpockettools]

Inspector Gadget is nostalgically awesome.
