EDC is what works for each individual....There is no right and wrong. Most people have keys, wallet...and after that anything goes. A lot of my older friends still don't own a smart phone. I carry one, and hardly use it. I like a watch. I carry a multi tool and Knipex Cobra...but rarely seem to use. But...Super handy when needed! I could probably get by with a folding knife...and my SAK Rambler...and a couple of flashlights, and be good...but carry things "just in case"....For a pen on work days....it has to be a one handed one...with no removable cap to lose.

I don't have the same budget as this EDC, but the concept and types of tools are pretty much what I am aiming at for my own EDC. With two major differences: I don't pocket carry and my wallet will be something stand-alone. My backpack goes literally everywhere with me, and I have a lot of tech concerns I prepare for, so organization is a huge thing for me.

That's a lot of redundancy in your kit at the end. I count 2 scissors, 2 pliers, 3 screwdrivers, 3 blades (I think the arc has 2 or 3?)...

The Arc Company Bolder XL is my jam! Mostly I went with the XL because I want my cash folded once. I can't stand trifolding bills. Inside I currently carry cash in the back slot folded in half (I like to have cash for tipping servers and such) and cards in the front two slots (I think 7ish between license, credit cards, and insurance cards). On the front I have a Rite in the Rain Pocket Pen on the left (though you have to be careful since no clip it can slide out when the wallet is open but I've just gotten used to being careful of that) and a RovyVon Angel Eyes E3 on the right (though that might change to an Olight). In the back slot I have a few bandages and business cards. I can't say enough great things about Arc Company stuff. So well designed and made! I also just got The Marksman case to use as an EDC writing kit and have a notebook, Rite in the Rain pen, Rite in the Rain pencil, eraser, and small ruler/template guide in it. It's been just as fantastic as the wallet.
