Your video appeared in my feed and I was curious. I actually carry a bunch of these items, the light, the s.s. zebra pen, and the alox pioneer sak. My expensive items usually stay at home. I actually bought that o-light in bulk to give away as gifts. Who doesn't love a handy little light? Also, a pry bar is a must for me, I sell wine and open wooden crates on the regular. Mine is larger though, I think I'll try the one you have. The Gerber Shard didn't work for me. Thanks for great content, subbed.

i had a rat 2 in D2 used it for about a year before i gifted it to my cousin. Rat2 has been my favourite edc knife to this day. waiting to buy a new one with some cool handle or something

Now my favorite pen is Going to be impossible to find

It's nice to have some levity. Tacticool stuff is boring all the time and while it can be stylish, not everything has to be so grim and serious.

I'm down for the whole concept, but Ontario Rat model 1/2 are both over $35 on their own atm even in AUS8. Under $30 your best bet is likely the Civivi Mini-Praxis...not sure about a large knife though. If your ok with Ganzo they have tons of great options under $30.

I have that Nite Ize Doohickey and I am shocked at how many times it comes in handy. Bought it on a whim when it was on clearance at Dicks. So glad I did. TFS. ☮️

For those like me that like a mechanical pencil, one that's pretty nice and safe for the pocket is the Uni Shift

RAT 1 is substantially bigger. RAT 2 is a great buy. Have had one for 10+ years still going strong.

Yes front flippers are the coolest ways to open a knife. You can open it multiple ways with a ff. Tired of those boring flipper tabs or thumb studs. Have you try the kizer militaw or Varatas?

Jack Wolf needs to start making their knives here in America to provide American jobs. That's just my opinion.

As a maintenance technician who works on machinery on a daily basis, there are a few essential things to keep in your pockets and a pry bar is not one of them.

What if I told you that neck tattoos look like shit

+1 for Victorinox Floral knife. I don't have a sheep's foot and this looks like a good value.

I daily carry a Cadet. Its great for office setting and for my day to day needs. I also agree with you with the key ring, I find them really useful (key ring and nail file are the reason why I stopped daily carrying my bantam alox). It sucks victorinox doesn’t put scissors in 84mm models anymore because a Cadet X would be perfect for me.

Imagine the muji pen came in that infamous vtech clear green

Just now watching and I think this video is the new standard for entry level EDC

I just bought a Spyderco Ladybug K390 (👊👊). Black is the most basic and can never go wrong, you can match a lot of stuff with style for MUCH LESS, good luck.

$18 for 10 Muji pens

victorinox executive woodscales, that is like a classic (w/o screwdriver) that one is attached with a simple sturdy keyring to your very same prybar, or as alternative the alox minichamp, mine is in a particularly worn black through some time. For the knife alox bantam, alternated with a medium trapper or stockman. But for the weekends or events I. enjoy adding a small sebenza, an elementum or civ-inox, or even a brazen or bigger like the. rat 1, depending of the occasion. But to be honest the medium traditional patterns most always fit any time any way with the least pocket real state. Light pineapple mini Ti, pen brass space pen all the way up to tturn ti bolt action pen. Great vid nEDC ! any thoughts on edc small pliers? is it something you need often? or is just the hype?

I have that civivi elementum. I don't speak for the rest of the dessert series but the paint on the blade and the clip is chipping away. The paint on the scales are also chipping and fading away. I've had it since Dec '22 and it's part of my summer rotation edc. It's a great sharp lightweight knife but I'm now disappointed in the paint quality.

I like the rat knife a lot, hate the logo change Esee Avispa is also a good knife

kershaw pt2 over the shard because the shard is 3cr and the kershaw is 8cr and has room to hold a ferro rod or hex bit in the hole if u add 2 o rings

victorinox waiter offers more utility for the same price over the solo, floral, or cadet with the waiter being only $18 some places. between the waiter and bantam it's all personal preference but I personally love having the corkscrew (with mini driver), toothpick, tweezers, and ofc the combo tool.

Mini praxis is a much better knife than the elementum. Same steel but $20 cheaper and is better in every way.

Yeah the pry bar agree a cheap one is great as you said you can eat the crap out of it.

Nice video always loved zebra pens and mechanical pencils.

Cool video,budget is best.

I knew there was a word for the way a click pen should sound! “Positive click” 👌

I've got an old proto brand keychain flat head that I can pry with, haven't really used it but it looks cool

My favorite pen is the Lamy Safari.Fenix EO5 ( 90 lumen) my favorite flashlight.Victorinox Classic SD my favorite miltitool.Boker Urban Trapper Petite ( VG10 titanium and cocobolo handle) my favorite knife

If I’m traveling with friends, I carry my budget , with my family I edc all tough and reliable gear.

Vic Rambler, iR2 Eos and Pico Pen are fairly budget and have been my solid EDC for about a decade now. Still under $65 for a great "main 3" keychain edc combo that is very compact and lightweight.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Love the hand tattoos...

The Ontario Rat knives really need to die already... or be updated. If you like them that's cool but the value is flat out bad compared to Civivi and similar brands. You can get better steel, g10 handles, and bearings all for less money.

Rovyvon A3 is another great small flashlight. USB-C rechargeable, it has 3 modes and it hits 700 lumens. It's around $35 so it's not super cheap, but it's tiny and very powerful. I have one that lives on my keys

5:01 fisher refills also fit the zebra

Great vid man, new sub! Been into EDC for 7 years now and you got the juice to be doin this bro. Check me out youtube.com/@cincinnatus007?si=Gu2wQu1DAlAObFfR

I carried a RAT1 for somewhere in the ballpark of 100 years. Hahaha i suggest getting the uncoated version though for sure. Especially if you end up using it for food. Haha best value for money in my opinion. And are you even an EDC collector if you haven't owned about 30 microstreams and given all of them out? Haha very good video Tom!

Great video! I have the same mindset on many things that you said! I'd love to find a budget alternative of the civivi elementum with button lock. Good luck for your next videos 🔥

Can’t find this anywhere. What’s the brand and model? Thank you

Tom, stop spending my money 🤣

Awesome video! Just somethings to point out. The refills on the Zebra F- 701 can be something special. If you want a smooth writing experience you can get the gel refills from the Z Mulsion line with slight mods. If you want a more versatile refill to write in any condition, always get ink, and is compatible with no modification. You can get the Fisher Space Pen SPR4 pen refills. Other than that great pen as is. Also on the Alox I know you tried to explain it but for those that don't know that combo tool is slightly different because it is a flat head, bottle opener, wire stripper and can opener in one. It seems to be a bit longer as well. My main carry so far is the F-701, Victorinox Super Tinker use it a ton especially for the scissors, Keyport Flashlight that thing is dope, and a knife from CJRB not the one I ordered but it performs great. I wanted the Pyrite light so I'll try and get it from their main site. Also, Knipex Cobra XS not everyday but everyday I go to work slip it in my back pocket and I hardly know it's there. It's usually in my bag or near me when I'm home. Although, when i feel like going lighter, It's primarily just the Super Tinker, Keyport, and F-701. Carries all the bases and then some for me. 👍

My top 2 favorite edc Victorinox knives are currently the compact and alox pioneer x. My wife and I always edc a rambler on our key chains as well.

0.5 refers to the thickness of the ink writing. So that pen is 0.5 mm, some worlds of pens that is a fine, were there is Fine/Med/Bold. It is like your mechanical pencil lead thickness too. Most of the time you don't see or hear the 0. (point) part, we usually say 7 mm or 5 mm and really there is a 0. part.

I'm 40 and I've never ever been in a situation where I was like, I wish I had a pry bar right now. I always had a multi tool so I opened paint cans with the flathead screwdriver (which can also tighten a camera mount just fine). Also, I've opened like ten paint cans ever Maybe I don't have enough paint in my life.

It's like the old timers light a match

Cool gear. The Alox models doesn't have the toothpick and tweezers. That kills it for me. Gotta have those two with my Swiss.

Vic Solo is 93mm Pioneer sized, not 84mm Cadet.

Nice video. Did you see my edc… I Have the Ontario 2, gerber shard, Victorinox compact, olight i3e. Keep up the nice videos.
