All neat items; in defense of things like the knife a fork, I'm out in a truck all day for work and sometimes I'll stop at the grocery store and pick up something for lunch, so in my work bag I currently carry a set of titanium chopsticks and a titanium spork. For the right person, that kind of thing is very useful.

I get inspired from these edc items, then try to find low cost solutions. I would like to get a nice edc fork and spoon, however I also know I can score free plastic cutlery from my carry out. I actually use diner style fork and spoons at home. I just feel like I need to respect my budget in my edc addiction

My GFs mom gave a hobo knife, and I thought cool a Fork and knife I couldn't use at the same time, but I still used it. Then, when cleaning it one day, I had the fork open, and it fell into the sink and popped the knife off with one scale attached. Turns out opening the fork, then sliding the scale would separate the knife. At that point, I was sold, genius idea.

As far as fire starters, I’ve always told people to just keep mini bic lighters in their kit and stashed where needed. An extra step is you can cut a bicycle inner tube down, stuff the mini bic and some kind of tinder in, and seal both sides with rubber cement. It’ll still work if you leave it sealed for 20 years.

Another tip I saw in a video is to wrap it with hemp wick, then secure it with a small ranger band. Then you just light the wick's loose end and can save the lighter fuel. Works great!
@chevy4x4669 ай бұрын
The bic lighter is the ultimate fire starter , don’t care what the edc gurus say. Matches r a close second

I have the Kickstarter Grim Workshop kit. Comes with a few extra bits for starting a fire like a tinder card, magnifier & a key chain version of the dog tag plus some other bits. Live in London. So unlikely to use often. Though London is less a case of if things go to hell & more a case of when.

The Cold4ged Forkanife is better than nothing, the knife tears things apart well enough as long as you stick to soft items like pastries etc. Both you have to be mindful the direction it folds out when you hold them as neither lock into position firmly and you need to clean it quickly if anything gets into slit once it drys it is pretty much there forever. Just my experience having used it for a year or so.

I've been carrying a houbei 2.0 for about a year and love it, handles a few bills easily but if you have a lot it gets to be a pain. When I handled the original topsider I wasn't a fan. This new topsider LT is what I wanted so I have one on the way, stoked for it to show up. Open sea leather is the best

The CRKT cache driver looks like a flashlight because it's a Joe Wu (aka Scout Leather) design, and he also works with Prometheus Flashlights. Joe Wu makes useful, good-looking tools and all of his stuff has a distinctive look. I recall you've featured some of his drivers before. Take a look at them and the flashlights side by side and his design signature will jump out. Brilliant guy.

That first crkt driver looks like a whistle at first. I did purchase one of the 711L mini ratchets but the one that has a round handle and a 1/4in driver hole in the handle bottom. It’s gonna be great for my RC hobby as I use MIP bits. I’ll fuse some rubber to the handle for spinny grip. I bought a prestacycle ratchet too that’s the same as the 711L but longer and comes with an extension that doubles at a T handle. I cut it down stubby and welded it back together. Great stuff.

You mentioned that you keep a secondary wallet in your bag. So here is my question. By carrying secondary items like wallets and so forth, when does an EDC stop being an EDC? There must be thousands of EDC carriers who carry too many items.

Nah. None of them look worth the money to me. If you need cutlery just get a cheap fork at the second hand store and flatten it and/or cut it down to size. If you want a flint sparker, just salvage a used lighter. I've seen better bit driver designs in smaller packages. The sticky knife kit seems bulkier and less useful than a thin Swiss Army Knife or clone. The handcuff key kit might be useful.
