[@RAID5_Aesthetic]

@@JE_AB_CA yes, and just like carrying only a fixed blade for a month, it would be fun, and a challenge. What you have done is found the right tool for the job. When I had to cut nylon straps or bands all day from pallets of goods I used a box cutter. I changed blades as needed. We didn't use a knife for that. We also carried the Leatherman PST in those days and that was used as pliers to pull the staples, nails, etc.

[@jameshaulenbeek5931]

​@JE_AB_CA the same is true for pretty much every multitool. A proper screwdriver can't be beat by a multitool. A proper set of pliers can't be beat by a multitool. A proper knife can't be beat a multitool. They're good in a pinch if you can't do better, but if you can, you should.

[@0pt1tr0nD27]

My edc has remained the same for a good bit now. The only thing I change out is my pocket knife, but the main one I carry is the civivi praxis, I’m gonna upgrade here to the full size here soon. I carry a 7” bladed fixed blade, Sofirn light, Gerber dual force, bastion pen, and a lighter.

[@Vinylguy67]

Please somebody explain to me like I'm 5, Why would somebody pay almost (and way over) 400 usd for a flashlight? Genuine question. What makes a light so great that YOU would pay that much?

[@cylentone]

Because he can. Seriously - as a normal person you can never max out a Golf GTI on a public road - and yet people are paying $X00,000 for sportscars that they will also never max out on a public road. Status, prestige but also an appreciation of premium products. My carry costs 1/4 of this carry and can do at least as much when I need it to.

[@007Jmoney]

Because it’s a status symbol in the edc community. Yeah sure it’s a flashlight too but mostly just a status symbol to make your poorer edc friends jealous. They are high quality but in my opinion that can’t justify the $400+ price tag. (Edit: he also gets them for free)

In I always carry my phone in my right pocket and then I always carry my keys and wallet in my left pocket, but I’ve never carried a knife with me because it doesn’t fit in my right pocket when I’m carrying my phone and I’m about to buy a fix blade for my everyday carry knife, so I’m just wondering where I would put my knife what should I do different?

[@jm.0120]

I'd like to see this answered as well. I'm in the same predicament.

[@busterbeast999]

For me, it's phone in left or lower left it I have it. And knife clipped on right. Wallet and keys in the right pocket low enough that they don't fight with the knife. Or if I have a lower right on those pants they go in there. Like cargo pockets is what I'm talking about. My only problem is trying to get wallet or keys without scratching myself on the outside of some knives.

I got lucky, but i got 2 dlc mini click big idea pens for 50 a piece on Kickstart year's ago. My justification is that they are heirloom pens that I'll use and will have the rest of my life. Does someone need to spend 110 on a single pen, maybe maybe not, but does someone need to spend 100 200 300+ on a pair of sneakers? We all like what we like and chose to value all sort of material things differently. Just some of those things will last a lifetime being used daily. While some things can only be used for a short time and you'll have to buy that thing all over again.

[@jasonsarakatsannis7743]

My question on the pens, is how stock are the refills. Companies and brands go out of business all the time. I have a ton of "nice" pens that I can't find the correct refills for. Be careful on lifetime pen purchases.
