Quick personal question, are you two together.? I hope I do not cause offence, and I honestly do not care what people do in private, I am just an overly curious individual (who is currently a little high on medicine to kill off a virus (that's my excuse)).
Real thankful y'all came back to the UA-cams.
Thanks! We are really thankful for all the support!
Where did they go????
@@latindoggy8059to your mom's house
I use a sling bag as an emergency dad bag. Things I keep inside rotate out but typically carry wet wipes, battery bank, wired headphones, leatherman style, handkerchief and first aid kit. Things that I don't normally need, but when I'm out with my son all of a sudden these things become essential.
A prepared dad is a good dad!👊
When kids are around nothing is more important then wet wipes! Dad essentials!!
What bag did you go with?
I’m looking at the Vertx Transit 3.0 sling
@@matt8um that bag look a lot larger then the one I ended up with. I this smaller vertical sling from Uniqlo around 5 years ago that is the perfect size for my needs. Unfortunately it looks like it is no longer sold.
So happy you two have decided to grow the channel. I think many many people loved the dynamic you ben and jamie had at you know where. Well and kurt of course. I thoroughly enjoy your videos and wish nothing but the best for you guys. Excited for the future of this channel and whatever else comes from it 👏🏽.
It’s because of your support we can do it! Thank you for tuning in and showing up👊
@zacinthewild Glad to see you still on UA-cam man. Still have your handwritten note from when I won a knife from you know where.
@ErbenLegend Could you tell me what happend between Zac at You know where? Was sad he left but never found out why.
Thank you for your hard work making these videos! You really make it possible to somehow connect us all; the edc/projects lovers. These tools/knives really bring the joy, creativity and adventure feeling I had as a kid with a full imagination; thanks for inspiring us to keep that feeling and energy! All the best for 2023!
I am so happy for you Zac and Jamie- you have also made this a great year for your viewers- thank you for the great videos, you guys are the best!! I really look forward to the coming year to see what you guys have cooking. God bless you both, your efforts, and to all the viewers and gear community. Thank you
Thank you so much!🙏
Beyond stoked to hear that y’all have been able to go full time with the channel. Best content in the space and it’s not even close.
You guys deserve every great thing that happens for you. I’m so glad you decided to remain on UA-cam!
That means a ton! Thank you for all the support!
If Zac picked just a single knife it wouldn't be Zac and we would lose our minds 😆
Just got my wild penny a couple days ago, thanks Zac and Jaime!
You guys are both stellar!
True! Thanks so much for all the support!🙏👊

Another Awsome video! iv been watching yall for years ever since yall were doing knife banter, thanks for what you do! Also thanks for showing me the tops m-pat.didnt know about that knife and now plan to buy one.
Day off work, relaxing in the cold. Perf time for the vid. Thank you!
👊😎
Love your contente guys! Please keep posting videos. Merry christmas from Mexico
Awesome video and agree with all the EDC choices and ave a merry Christmas
I’m glad the algorithm shot edc pocket video across my UA-cam. I hate having my pockets full. But only thought of a sling bag. And the knives…❤❤❤. Thank you for being on UA-cam.
You’re both doing great things. Here’s to 2023 🎉
This is my go to edc banter. You guys are great!
Thanks!🤘
I love my alpaka sling bag. People can call it a man purse but I’m not self conscious so people can think what they want. It’s super useful. Carry all my daily essentials and edc gear with ease. Highly recommend it.
Love all your stuff keep up the good work
👊💪
Fun video guys, thanks. Merry Christmas.
You guys are awesome. Keep on keepin on!
Good to see you guys back in action! Mahalos for the cherry content 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Always enjoy your vids, keep m coming! Happy holidays and stay safe!
Happy Holidays to you too!
One of the best knives/EDC channels out there! Quality content always! Keep up the good work!
Thanks!👊
Great video keep them coming!
Great to see you two working together.
You guys are awesome. Looking forward to Fort Wild growing.
Slowly but surely😁
Thanks guys Merry Christmas
Glad we made the list!! Thank you guys again, another great video as usual.
Now we need to get a CUMA Kage to put the through the paces! I’m sure it could make a list or two😁😎. But really that MPAT is soooo good!
@@zacinthewild Zac you have to get the hub kit for your alpaca pouch it’s a game changer
@@zacinthewild hey! I have an mkm mikro but I got the naked with no scales and now I've decided I need scales but mkm doesn't sell the scales separately and I can't find 3rd party, can you help?
Really enjoyable video and some really good looking gear.
I have the same sling and I love it, great size for carrying my edc items and even a few extra thing that I couldn’t normally fit in my pockets. Highly recommend!
Y'all have probably the best knife channel on UA-cam.... keep up the great work.
Just found the channel. Was hoping yall would do something like this channel! Awesome!!!
Website looks legit!!!! Keep up the good content Zac!!
Love having Jamie in the videos like this!!! I carry a “Fanny pack” daily and love it. Very handy and can accommodate anything I want to add for the most part. Could not recommend more!
does it always match your purse?
I wear the same sling that Jamie has all the time. It’s perfect to wear for those days where you need a little more than your pockets can hold but you don’t need a backpack. It’s just quicker, easier, and sleeker than a whole backpack as well.
Good going fellows! I've used many pouches, I find the tech mini the perfect size for daily ESC. The open access to see all items to easily grab is the best. Also, I carry the MKM in the pouch w/lanyard that locks in my pinky to really stabilize it's use. Added note, sub 2" blade for Chicago use if needed.
I love your videos gentleman thanks for taking the time to explain why you love your stuff
Thanks for taking the time to time in👊
See Ben is a smart guy carrying his own scales. Great video Brothers 👍
He’s got some plans for sure. Thanks!
This is the vibe that really made these gents my favorite.. 💪
As I’m watching this video I have the Civivi Riffle and the Civivi Bullmastiff in my pockets! Great video guys!!
I just got my first pair of leather boots as an early Christmas gift, and so far, they're great! Could never go without them know.
Your videos are the best!
Started carrying those Cuh-nip-x pliers around at work, and love them!! 🫡🇺🇸
Always love y’all’s videos. Hope the coming year is prosperous. On me I carry a rotation of Spyderco or Benchmade knives, a Leatherman Skeletool, Flip Wallet, LEO credentials wallet, firearm, phone, Izulu fixed blade, AirPods, Fisher compact space pen, Surefire Stiletto Pro flashlight, some type of chapstick, and keys. And I always throw a go bag in my vehicle.
Awesome content as usual guys!
I spent an hour on the Buck website last night playing with their custom build section thanks to you two 😜.
My favourite gear I purchased this year are the Real Steel G Slip compact, the Real Steel Luna Thumb Stud and the NEBO Mycro 500+ headlamp (awesome headlamp if you are baseball cap guy/girl) .
They didn’t come out and I didn’t buy them this year but I’ve finally got some good use out of my Lems Boulder leather boots. So comfortable, warm enough for UK winters with good socks, not great in the snow we had last week ⛸ 🕺 but I love ‘em.
It would be awesome to see you guys in the UK if or when Zac goes internationally wild.
Merry Christmas chaps and best wishes for 2023! #legalizefreedom 😉
What I love is they are quality knives at a affordable price that you can customize and if you lose it you’re not crying over losing a $300 pocket knife. Keep up the quality work and bring in the quality knives.
Yall are so awesome love yalls videos. I really want to get my hands on one of those mkm knives now. Keep it up yall I always look forward to watching your videos.
It’s a great one!
I carry a sling bag some times. Comes in handy a lot. I don’t do it daily but often especially in the summer
Zac and Jamie are the best !!! I hope this channel gets bigger and bigger !! Wish more frequent uploads , but I appreciate the high quality uploads you guys produce !!!!
I would love to see more EDC general gear , some outdoors field tests, and maybe some camping/ hiking gear. !!
Keep up the great vids guys , makes the week better
Definitely have some more content types we will be rolling out!
You rocks guys, as always 🔥👏❤️
Love this guys. Congrats on going full time :)
Thank you! Sailing out into unknown waters😁
Heck yeah! I love you guys.
Regarding slings - a water bottle is part of my EDC, so I love having a water sling with an additional pouch on the front. Water bottle plus organizer in one :)
I love your video on the Bowie knife it rocked
Great video as always 👍Merry Christmas 🎅
Merry Christmas!
I know I'm late to the vid by a "bit" lol. I just wanted to say I'm glad to see you and Jamie are doing well and can't wait to see what the future holds for you guys....going to check your website out now!😬
I have carried a Civivi everyday for almost 2 years and aside from a quick run across ceramic stick I have had to do nothing to it and it is still as good as it gets! Cool to see them on here!
The Lander is awesome. I’m carrying it daily. Love the scale swapping.
Have been watching since from the very first episode. Glad you made channel after blade hq.🔥🔥🔥🔥
My favorite “new” place to land on UA-cam. Best wishes for the New Year.
Thank you! Happy New Year👊
FORT WILD
Hope you have a ton of success
Merry Christmas
Thanks! And Merry Christmas to you.
Congrats on the growth of the channel! But, on the note of pliers...pretty much daily I carry the 4 in Knipex cobra pliers along with my Leatherman Charge TTI in the slot where the extra bits would go, it's nice having an option between needle nose and something like the cobras with that adjustable feature along with that "bite" and full pliers function. I carry the 10 inch cobras 40-50+ hours at work and as you described the 5 inch ones these are just the same but 2x the size lol, I would recommend looking into the Knipex Wrench pliers, both 5 inch and 10 inch, they have an awesome ratchet like feature that once you get the hang of it you'll replace your normal adjustable wrench
Something I very recently discovered is that there are companies making pants and jeans with the front pockets on the outside of the pant leg like a cargo pocket, but just under the belt. You can fit WAY more stuff in these things comfortably than in the traditional pants pockets that are inside the leg material. And they're made of the same strong material as the pants are, so no more holes forming in the thin pocket material.
Some of them also have dual pockets on each pocket with zips, snaps or straps to keep them closed up. Super rad.
Zac, lovin the independent channel mate keep it coming👍🏼
More to come!
I carry a sling very often. Even on top of my laptop case/tool bag for work. I am female, and I absolutely HATE the "purse look" as well. I own a few Nutsac bags and Alpaka slings, as well as some others. One sling is always strapped to me, and it's always full of the EDC things that I absolutely cannot live without. Yall should give it a try! They free up some pocket real estate while still being easily accessible.
Keep up the great work! Love the videos!
Hope you guys have happy holidays and a very happy new year!
Great insight! We are definitely going to be trying out some slings. Thanks for tuning in👊. Happy Holidays and New Year
Glad to hear about your future plans. 🤞🏻👍🏻👍🏻. My 2022 picks are the We Big Banter, SOG Powerpint, Bark River City Knife, Tactile Turn mini pen, Olight Perun Mini, and a Maxpedition mini pouch
Great choices! The Big Banter was really tied for first but I couldn’t have three🤣
Sooo cool to see a shotout to Votix! I didn't know about them till I found them on Etsy but just got a Sage 5 LW and found them offering awesome micarta scales so I picked some up a few weeks ago, so excited to get them in!
man, i wish this video had longer time maybe an hour more, i love listening to this two, i kinda relate about hating fixblade but ended up carrying one almost if not every day for about a year now 😂😂😂
You guys should try the Hide and Drink pocket organizer. Very similar to the Alpaca but it's made from waxed canvas and leather. I love the texture of it, and I feel it's going to be very durable.
Would love to see you guys go on some adventures. I loved the video where you guys did the off road romp in the desert.
My favorite pieces of gear for 2022
1. Vertex delta stretch 2.1 pants (so freaking comfortable and perfect for all my gear)
2. Sog pint for my multi-tool
3. Nxt belt appendix carry
4. Tactile turn pen the mini bolt action
5. The groove wallet this wallet is a game changer.
Wildcard . Probably my bag pack case I have tried a few out but I always gravitate back to mag back.
I carry a small backpack to work(swiss gear 3598) Holds my med/trauma kit, a small survival tools/repair kit, tact bivvy with inflatable pillow, two power banks(one is solar). It's used as a mini ghb from work or within 20 miles from home. I use a fanny pack during the hotter months and leave ghb in my car. I also use a viperaide v3 pocket slip, comes with a detachable carry strap. Loved the video!
Zac id love to see a video series of you and Jamie building the apartment. As a way of showing off how you guys use your tools but also because watching someone build a garage sized apartment would be pretty cool
We would love to do more with it. We’re trying to figure out how to show it off the best.👊
@@zacinthewild I realize home scaping and filming is time consuming so if it doesn't happen I get it. But I appreciate the feedback and consideration.
You had me going with the give-away. You got me !
I'm a big fan of the EDC sling. I use an AER city sling 2 and it carries a spare knife, my multitool, flashlight, cash etc. It's great because I have a little kid so most of my everyday carry is stuff for her (snacks, tissues, hand sanitizer etc.).
Got to have the snacks! You sound like a great dad👊
Absolutely here for the man bags. The pockets can only fit so much!
My choice for this year has been the Bradford 3D front scout carry and the Keen Cincinnati boots. No break in needed so comfortable right out of the box amazing products. They even have a factory in Oregon, so many are US made!
Great video fellas. I just went to the Alpaka site and ordered a pouch. I currently carry a Trayvax Element wallet and have been for the last 8-10 years. It’s been an amazing wallet and I’ve been looking for an effective way to carry gear without overloading my pockets. I tend to scratch my phone on my knives since I don’t carry my phone the same pocket all the time. I’m ambidextrous and use my phone with either hand so it tends to end up in whatever pocket I last had my hand on it. I know, my ADHD and Autism battle with each other between organization and “Look Squirrel” 😂. I’m now looking at either a Banter or Lander knife and probably adding a Knipex mini Cobra. Thanks again for all the info! Cheers!
First time watching. Great video. The lander looks like a must for me. I have a few civivi knives in my Amazon cart now. Oddly enough I’ve spent the last 12 years in the auto industry
feels like home here, thanks guys!
That really means a lot!👊
