My Most Used Everyday Carry Gear | EDC Update Summer 2022

[@williamtoole2927]

Dang, I was just watching an old video of yours and noticed how (with respect) big you were and how fit you've gotten in the last year or so. Dude, you've made some crazy progress!

[@BestDamnEDC]

Thank you!

[@rpsproductions]

I thought the same thing! Looking great man! Hope life is going well with you and yours ❤️

[@Spacedog_42]

Hey Taylor, I bought a Tough Clip because of your recommendation and have had it since December 2021. Can’t thank you enough for advertising that product. Jamie did an amazing job with the simplistic design. Great quality and very durable. It replaced every other dangler or carabiner that I’ve used in the past. I don’t go anywhere without it.

[@BenSemisch]

Wallet - Hanlon Leather Pen - Sharpie Gel or G2. (I lose pens a lot). Multi-Tool - Leatherman Wave or Victorinox Climber Flashlight - Rovyvon A8 Watch - Apple Watch, whatever the newest gen is. Don't have a dedicated knife, but I'm considering adding one. For now the Multi-tools do the work.

[@effie410]

3:59 yes! that is in fact situational irony! you would expect what you carry the most to be there with you, yet your expectations are subverted, therefore irony is in place.

[@liamjordan5948]

I like how you don’t get too bummed out from the negative comments. Glad you’ve highlighted the positives to expensive torches/flashlights. Would love to see a budget flashlight video sometime (if you’ve not done one already). Something around the $£100 mark if possible. Thanks for all these videos, I’ve watched a lot over the past few weeks and really love your channel. Keep the great videos coming! 🤙

The one EDC watch everyone sleeps on or knows nothing about is the Casio Oceanus S100 series. Titanium case and band, sapphire crystal, and the same Casio Tough Movement in most of their dialed-out G-Shock watches but in something that does *not* look like a G-Shock. You could wear this thing to a wedding and then go to the range and dump a few thousand rounds downrange and it won't affect it one bit. Not to mention it sync up with the atomic clock wireless every night as well as can easily jump between time zones in seconds, far faster than any other watch on the market. Lume is incredible on it. And it's solar so no worrying about batteries as well as 100m w/r. And I guarantee it's one of the lightest watches on the market due to it's all-titanium build. And right now it's going for anywhere between $350-$500 depending on where you get it. Backup analog watch is a Manchester Watch Works "Rattler" automatic watch. Titanium case, sapphire crystal, superluminova lume that charges easily and lasts all night, hand-wind or auto, screw-down crown with 100m w/r and uses the venerable NH35 movement with shock resistance. I've hand-calibrated mine to keep within a few seconds of atomic time. Too bad the company doesn't exist anymore and the watch is no longer made, but that NH35 movement means it's easily serviced or repaired at pretty much any watch servicing business in my area.

[@rorykelly7451]

Fellow invictus enthusiast here. Not sure if you’ve ever handled an Invictus Alpha, but if not you should hunt one down. It’s the Jeremy Robertson custom version and something about the design combined with hand ground blades, hand fit locks, washer action, and XHP - it’s the ultimate expression of the invictus

[@jacobhodges7374]

Never change Taylor. We love your variety in carry. Everyone has stables if they really love gear and a bit of pocket jewelry. Hopefully I will have a collection close to your amazing array of gear.

[@danielcram4734]

The rustic heirloom wallet is exactly what I have been looking for. I’m a chain wallet guy and this fits the bill. I wish it was in stock.

[@randomvideo0191]

I'm an Indonesian🇮🇩🇮🇩who really likes the videos you make and I'm happy to see you

[@jkash3787]

Would love to see more flashlight content. I got a bunch of customs and would love to get your perspective on some

[@YaGhAd]

Man, i love your videos. The room set up, the quality, the subjects, and of course You ;) . Love from Saudi

[@jaredj631]

I think my flashlight philosophy is completely different. It’s the flashlight I wanted cost $300 I’d still buy it. However the one I’ve been edc-ing for 12 years runs about $25 now. When it first came out it was about 85$ it is a on off AAA 25 lumin. Flashlight. The function I like about it is the lens. Pulled back it is extremely even clear light for close to work. And it does OK as a spotlight too when the lens is adjusted. It has a hat clip. I use at least one to two hours every single day that I am working. It might be my most indispensable tool

[@Lycan683]

SOG PowerPint and a small prybar/flat driver is a good combo.. 👍👍👍

[@auggieedc205]

I know this is an older video but just wanted to drop by and say this video made me FINALLY try Nylon on one of my Hinderer's. Chose to try it on the NF Eklipse and I absolutely love it now that it's broken in. Makes me want a NF 3.5!

[@cobraman502]

Sofirn SP10 pro is pretty damn awesome. Anduril 2 need I say more. 14500 and AA both work in the light and the battery voltage test works for both. $23

[@Lunarpreparedness]

Great video, man. I look forward to your video more recently. Since your new studio and more “earthy” vibe your videos give off, I’m really digging it. More than in the past. Well done. Carry on!

[@Adrian890722]

When’s the wallet release Taylor? And any update on a patina update? Thinking a about getting one

[@l33tnull]

Hey Taylor, just so you are informed, it is possible to find out the biting of a lock just by looking at the key so someone can make an exact copy of a key seen on video. Be careful. Carry on.

[@Greg-zr4wm]

Glad I watched this, if nothing else for the sog multi tool. Side note though the flash lights you carry, they should put a double sided clip on them. So they could clip to your hat as well. Especially for the cost.

[@diebox14]

It’s been a while since i watch this channel, you have lost a lot of weight! You look great! Congratulations!

[@bhunt919]

I dont even have a flashlight but I want one. Love the look of the okluma DC0. I'm looking to buy a slim pocket flashlight preferably rechargeable but everyone I like is sold out and I want to spend around the $100 range.

[@crpizarro8241]

Dude I lost your channel for a while, it's good to see you lost some weight, you look good man, respectfully.

[@justinmarney2193]

Ooo JRW with an o-ring. Ok, that's some next lvl right there. Hella smart.

[@AdAce21]

19:50 wow, that is a really nice watch.

[@adrianoviedo4000]

have you ever showed us how you carry all this stuff? I think it would make a great video. Where do you keep all of it? Pouch? Is it comfortable? is everything just in one pocket?

[@pagodad8079]

I’m wondering the same. An example of how the key clip sits when hooked on a pant loop would be helpful for me. I’m considering it for my work keys but not sure how many a guy can fit on one as I have several and want them to reach my pocket from plant loop so they’re not making noise while walking.

[@d3xkb3rry]

That wallet. First heard of it while watching your channel. It was love at first sight. Missed the drops a few times but finally managed to land one which hopefully is in the mail on the way! Keep up the great reviews!

[@GriffMJ]

....SOG Powerpint is my MT..... I carry a WERA bit set for it in my EDC bag. I also carry the SAK Climber (+ scales) with the Key¦Smart pocket clip with SAK lanyard. (Knifeless REBAR for bigger and main MT)

[@wyattbreymeyer4033]

the reason people are hesitant on flashlights is because of the fw3 and emisar, muiltple lumitops that use great ui

[@just-dl]

I’m loving your videos! But, brother, you and me are from different planets! 😜 I wish I had your budget, though! My key management is a split ring and I made a leather fob. Snaps for belt hanging. Car keys are separate. No key ring blades. My pen is a chubby Cuban I turned on a lathe. Flashlight is a Fenix - 5 white modes. 10-1500 lumens, plus red and green. Too big to wear. Wallet. Old leather job that looks like a brick. Going to make another. Kinda small biker. Wood watches cost me $50/ea. Condor Wendigo for my knife. (Ordered.) replacing my krakatoa. I think the big distinction between you and me is my backpack(s). I have many. My edc is in my bag (sometimes my pockets) as such I lean to bigger and heavier items. No multi tools. Multiple tools. My work pack has laptops, cables, adapters, disks and drives. My play bag has the stuff we both like! It also has a cz-75. I usually don’t wear that at work. I liked your bit about the finer points of flashlights. I agree but not fully. I mean, you have a much deeper understanding of flashlights. I have 7 options and use 3. I use 2 90% of the time. There are watch aficionados who would hate my wooden ones. I like cheap but good stuff. Like condor knives. Wood Forest watches. I also like to make stuff. It’s not great. But it means a lot to me. My whole kit is probably well under $500. I’ll have to price it out. Thanks again for the great videos! Cheers!

[@Chriis_Perry16]

Taylor, digging up an older video but what flashlight/headlamp setup do you roll when hiking or camping?

[@MichaelR-kl6hk]

Personally I like your contant on high end flashlights. I carry a little brass Maratac aaa twist top light about 90% of the time, I don't feel the need for more, but I find those high end options interesting to know about. It's like high end watches, not something I'm looking for but seeing what's out there is cool. Really enjoy the channel.

[@FreedomFox1]

The copper Maratac aaa is my favorite keychain light. With the patina it looks like an antique ship instrument. I also like the Eagtac d3a in titanium, a compact clicky aa. It has an excellent UI and a better clip than the Maratac (I clip it to my shirt for hands-free work). I’ve had reliability issues with a number of lights recently, but these two have never let me down. I also agree, I’d love to hear more about the high end stuff!

[@anthonymorelli67]

What is the most affordable tactile turn pen

[@frankenstein3163]

I like my low grad carabiner for key's. Crazy fl's.. near 2k in fl's LOL I heard strobe flashlight is one of the best defense items next to being a black belt.

[@rudyjimenez8535]

Your looking good on your weight loss journey!

[@MikeHere]

My latest acquisition is a ZT Hinderer 0625TI. Like it better than my Chris Reeves titanium frame lock. On another note, every now and then I’ll buy a leather minimalist wallet but always go back to my ridge wallet… it’s just so quick and easy. I’d like one of those Mac 2 3.5’s mmmmmm

[@chukulan]

Honestly, the little o-ring on the key holder says "bad design" to me. If you have to add an o-ring to keep things from falling off, then the clip is ineffectual in and of itself. Just my opinion. It would be much cleaner without it. But then of course, things could fall off.

[@1980JPA]

I think that many of us (knife, EDC guys) will spend 80 to 100 bucks on a nice flashlight, but 450 bucks is a bit of a different story. It may be just me but a $100 flashlight feels equal in range to a $200 knife. I feel like a $450 flashlight is equal to the $800 knife to most of us EDC enthusiasts. Maybe only because you can get almost every single Bell and whistle on a flashlight for a hundred bucks. There are plenty of enthusiast flashlights that you could talk about just like knives. You don't have to avoid talking about them, just include more of the range of what's available. No offense but not talking about flashlights because you want to only talk about the $400 ones is a bit of a cop out, 😁. Love the channel, and thanks for all the work that you put into bringing us quality content so regularly

[@unfi6798]

Cowabunga mate.! Great summer carry TM. It's winter over here with similar carry but much low end but functional. Cheers matey. Greetings from Australia.

[@unfi6798]

Seriously? Is this really genuine.!?

[@iambobwhoru]

I already have the tough clip - what size oring could I put to duplicate this?

[@adamrobertson2048]

The special edition wallet just dropped again. Had to pull the trigger I love Pueblo leather!

[@soybein3848]

Where do you carry a multi tool if your pickets are full

[@geminisduerme5266]

Not tired of hearing about the sog powerpint. I want to get one at some point.

[@diskobean]

Its a phenomenal multitool and nothing in it's size comes close to it. I love it just about as much as my Leatherman Free P2 and Wave+. It's so compact, but has every tool i basically ever need. I just wish it had magnets to keep it closed like the P2 does, but that's the only gripe i have about it. When it's on my Grip6 belts, it can come "apart" and open. Not the tools though, just the frame/handles. For the price and size, i dare you to find something better 😉👍

[@j.cut_]

Know of any options similar to the key smart mini in real leather? Love the design but plastic isn’t my jam 🤣

[@BestDamnEDC]

You can make one with a Chicago screw and a scrap of leather

[@merlefisher3103]

Love the shirt! Verb coffee and Groundwork Common is where it's at.

[@jwmmitch]

Hey there. Looking to put together an EDC gift package. What's makes those pens worth that much (or really more than $10-$20)? Thanks

[@TheDobbermn]

i have the tough clip but how the hell do you get the o-ring on there like that?

[@Nate-Aims]

Just got the Damascus TI big idea designs mini click.. $775.. lmk if you want to review mine, I have #19 and expect delivery on the 26th and I can ship it out for you to review.

[@kellyhill2410]

I recommend omega seamaster for a watch. Great summer time watch

[@davidquesada5087]

After going to CRK, Hinderer, Shirgorov… and all the fancy flashlights (totally love those flashlights tbh). Would you do a month carry with more “mid range” items like a PM2, olight…?

[@edsaban572]

What do you recommend for a flipper? No ZT or Hinderer please.

[@JamalKhaffaf]

The tpt bead where did you get it? Very very nice! You have a good taste sir. Cheers!

[@jamesbrown146]

Hey Taylor, I have been on board the PowerPint train sense your first video with it during the store edc challenge videos. That being said, have you had issues with it coming open in the pocket? It seems to be my only issue I have with it. If you have, have you found any way to combat it?

[@tj.rockwell]

Did he make bronze oklumas? I need to find one

[@THExDUDEx8624]

I started keeping my edc gear 2 less gear,but nicer stuff that I love 2 carry. 3 wallets,5 knives a couple flashlights and so on. I had 2 much stuff before. I felt like I couldn't enjoy the gear I had.

[@Tyler-Woody]

Found your Facebook group then KZbin recommended you hahaha. Didn’t realize the Facebook group was based on the KZbin channel . Great content

[@symplman14]

Great list. Doesn’t matter the price as long as it’s functional, reliable, and is used regularly.

[@r.charles9762]

Best damn: Every Day Change Should be the new slogan!

[@landscapingspecialist]

I too hold corrosion resistance very highly on the knife overall attribute scale.

[@eagles7235]

You gotta do a Hard Use/ Top 10 Heavy Duty MT video next! Keep doing awesome work man!

[@GhastlyGrapes]

When you busted out the case for that second I actually laughed out loud 😂 great video

[@markhickman3372]

I really like the power pint

[@ceejwoods06]

Can you do an updated budget carry video under $100 or under $200?

[@jodyrowe8166]

Liked the flashlight and knife comparison. All gear should be good gear. Good man taylor

[@AKEFMA]

Great video!!! If I may ask, where did you get the Teflon washers for the Hinderer spanto? I’d like to get a set for my spanto as well. Thank you!!!!

[@conradomoreno783]

So I've watch a few of your videos and I'm hooked but what will carry commission consist of?

[@diegoaravenabustamante1044]

Hi, what are the measurements of the rustic heirloom wallet?

[@Happy87Camper]

Speaking of flashlights, have you tried any Convoy lights? Or Emisar/Noctigon lights?

[@Toiletstainz]

For a minimal wallet look up magnus industries ti wallet from New Zealand. Love mine and its basically only a step in from an elastic band in being as minimal as they come

[@John-sn4hl]

Best pocket knife under $50?

[@hockeymack]

im with ya on the flashlights bro! I feel that in the majority of my struggles in life, a little bit of light, goes a LONG way...same can be said for a knife, but i've never met anyone scared of a pocket light! lmao

[@jctedsap]

You haven’t seen the 2000 lumen light that I carry. It will light you up @ 300 yards.

[@Adrian890722]

@bestdamnedc any patina update bro?

[@waynegreen7634]

Those big idea design dual click pens are so damn nice. I have the full size zirconium.

[@philipjdry1234]

The best EDC would have tea candles

[@weirdmusicmixmaster]

any idea if they'll do another run of hitchhikers? never saw a minimalist wallet i liked until that one

[@Kilt_Camera_and_Carry]

You must try the full Ti American Blade Works framelock!

[@j8rr3tt]

I'm pretty sure you can toggle memory on both the CWF and the DC0.

[@BestDamnEDC]

You can reprogram the CWF, not the DC0. You have to send it in to have memory turned off.

[@Genesis992]

The lights are neato, but I don’t think an Emisar D4v2, FWAA, or SP10 Pro can be beaten. Anduril is the best software I’ve used and the more I’ve used it, the less I’ve been interested in other lights. Only other light that gets carried is a RovyVon for my keychain.

[@m4jqp]

I love those lights too. The only downside (for the tail switch one anyway) is the e-switch. For real though, if the d4v2 got an actual good deep carry clip, it’d be beast.

[@BestDamnEDC]

Anduril is awesome and powerful, but for daily use, I just prefer having something simple and straightforward. I really enjoy the FW3T I have, but end up grabbing these instead.

[@Genesis992]

Plus, I’m a fan of the magnetic tail caps offered in the D4v2 and SP10 Pro

[@lamefart]

I have the FW21 Pro. I wished they made a Ti version. They only made a Cu one aside from the standard Alu..

[@cowboydan9450]

Hello! Just discovered this channel. Question for the community. I bought a Spyderco Shaman recently and realized it wasn’t really what I was looking for. Where does one go to trade knives for other knives?

Looking for a good edc power bank that isn’t too large and is less than $50. Anyone have suggestions? Thanks in advance for helping out a newbie edc guy

[@enriqueleon6493]

I neeeeeeed it. Lol that wallet is so nice. I tried to go to the cite and it says I need a password. Will it just be open next month or do we need to aquire the password?

[@DaveErnstIs]

Hey man do you still carry the neon zero I was wondering because I would love to get one but there out of stock do you not like it anymore

[@Phyxsius_85]

Every fool has his own joy, as they say. each of us spends money on what we want to have. It would be nice if you made a video dedicated to flashlights in several price categories

[@mikekingsborough1]

Great video, Taylor. It really motivated me to jump on and buy one of those lights, the SOG multitool, and the fif20. Everything is always sold out. Any recomendations?

[@generaljeffery117]

Yeah I was so sad to find out that the Powerpint was sold out after I decided to get one after I’ve seen them in so many of Taylor’s videos now

[@DustRichKemp]

Love your videos! Was wondering if you could do a video of some button lock knifes. You recently mentioned the We Knifes Culex.. kinda pricey so was wondering if there are any others out there with similar action.

[@CNYKnifeNerd]

Are you in luck... Literally every budget brand is cranking out the $50-$100 button locks, at the moment.

[@rickgrimes1016]

Taylor be looking fit! Great video as always mate.

[@marygrace5231]

Did you get rid of the Ray light pineapples?

[@AnilPatel721]

Have you already done a review of the BigIDesign Field watch?

No love for slip joints? I always have a slipjoint as my secondary knife they are great in public for cutting up dinner when the waiter brings a butter knife or just peeling some fruit or veg for the kids

[@Andrew_M202]

I haven’t tried the power pint yet but I carry the Gerber suspension nxt it’s awesome has all the things you look for in a multi tool including locking tools look forward to a video if you give it a try

[@geometrycutz9167]
