1). Benchmade pocketknife. 2). Keys with Tini 2 light. 3). Mobile phone. 4). Wallet with a little cash and cards I use. I stay light and cheap in case I lose an item or get robbed. Great channel!
Actual edc. The things that matter the most. That's why I love this channel. You keep it real. I don't see any superfluous crap in your load out. Thanks, brother. I hope you, the fam, and the community are staying safe and warm out there. 🤙🏽
From north of the border here, when temperatures drop I take a pair of hand warmer packs. Strictly for if I get stranded in the car and have a 20-30 minute walk to get somewhere warmer. I have things in the car that I could use if I have to stay in the car but I'll walk to get somewhere rather than just waiting if I have to.
My Tier 1: - minimalist wallet - knife - G-shock - multi-tool - lighter - beeswax lip balm ( can also be useful to lightly coat non-stainless knife blades after cutting acidic things with them)
Great 1st tier list, man! You hit the nail on the head, start off with the less expensive gear and figure out what you like. I would add keys to the list, or more importantly, a good way to carry them on your person. I minimized my keys, and I carry mine on a clip carabiner that I clip onto my belt loop. As always, thanks for another excellent video. Go BATTALION!
I agree with everything you mentioned, but I have added (due to my work needs) is a brass caliper. It’s small to fit in my front pocket comfortably, measures in standard/imperial and metric, and it measures lots of small things (less than 4 inches) very well.
Thank you my Jar Head brother for all your vids. Im a wallet, watch, pen, flashlight, pocket knife and firearm kinda a guy. Price and style depends on the environment.
Something I have at all times comes from a habit my father has had since I can remember and from my time spent working with him as a truck and heavy equipment mechanic. Ignition pliers. Sounds a bit silly at first, but I don't leave home without them. I have a residential and commercial contracting business now and use them pretty much every day. Years ago, I was a software engineer at a major defense contractor, and i even carried a pair then. They came in really handy once at about 3 in the morning when we were having trouble getting a module out of a rack. The extraction tabs had broken off the board, it refused to budge and was holding up tests. I used my pliers to get it out. I even changed the starter on my 67 Chevy pickup in a parking lot when I was in college. With what I carry every day, I can pretty much cut, grab, twist or burn anything that needs it.
A nice hank is a must for me as someone who wears glasses. No clue how many times I use it to clean off my glasses when I get something on them. Just makes my life a little easier, and it's worth it to me. Definitely agree on everything else. Dedicated flashlight makes a world of difference too. I don't need anything huge, but it's always better than the one on my phone, especially in small/tight places.
Good stuff. For the carabiner, the price difference between a Night-Eyez toy and a real take-your-body-weight climbing biner is very small, you can get a decent wire biner for $5-6. Might as well go for something that can take a load. My keyring is a nice locking carabiner. I have a necklace that has certain always-on-me items, like a whistle, tiny flashlight, and Samsung Bar thumbdrive (water/xray/shockproof and cheap). For the pad of paper the waterproof paper is getting pretty cheap, between the right in the rains and knockoffs. For the pens, while there are more alternatives to the fisher space pens, you can get a really wide variety of pens and use the fisher refill. Because if you're in Houston, it's going to be raining.... for a flashlight, I always go for something that takes AA or AAA batteries. I have rechargeables but keep an AA on me too, you can ALWAYS get AA batteries. For knives look for something with at least VG10 steel, for about $10 more (and sometimes less) you can get a knife that will actually stay sharp. I have nice assisted knives but dont carry them, a lot of people are uncomfortable if you whip out a blade like that. I buy most of my knives on ebay, find out whats worth it and just wait... I've been blown away by the SOG PowerPint, it's really outclassing the competition in that size of multitool. Gerber Armbar is a decent alternative, much slimmer but also a nice bitholder. Thanks for the vid!!
Im ol'school and i believe most are just EDC enthusiasts now a days. I've been carrying EDC since i was a kid and in custom holsters and sheaths i make myself. I have Made several Leather holsters that always hold my Iphone and and a... 1.) Fixed blade or 2.) Buck 110 folder or 3.) SOG Multitool or 1.) Left Pocket /Tanto folder pocket knife, keys 2.) Sharpie Marker 3.) Right pocket / Case Russlock folder, Brass Zippo 4.) CRKT Minimalist boot knife kydex sheath 5.) Leather Cowboy long wallet w/ CC folding knife 6.) Airpods and a Bluetooth headset This is what i Every Day Carry without fail.
Got everything you covered here. But, I carry 2 wallets. A smaller one with ID's, cash, bank card, other credit cards then the larger one with cash, every day credit card. It's the one I'd turn over in a robbery. The card cancels itself if odd activity happens. Each wallet has 36" of paracord, safety pins and paper clips. Safety pins are for clothing malfunctions, mainly. I carry 3 knives, a Gerber Vise, Swiss Army (small one with the tooth pick/tweezers), and a Spyderco Street Bowie. The little Gerber has a plain blade and serrated blade, and a really good pliers w/wire cutter. A pair of nail clippers and tube of chap stick top off that pocket. I have lots of bandanas and several shemaghs, that take the place of handkerchiefs. I'm with you on flashlights. I've started buying the pocket pen sized ones because they are the most handy. Best thing about a water bottle is I can count how many ounces I drink a day. I don't carry a pad of paper, but a folded piece of blank 8 1/2" x 11". Folded to pocket size and it gives me 16 little pages that I can toss at the end of the week, after easily transferring any info onto a desk pad. A good solid pen makes a nice little stabbing weapon. Since I nearly always also have a pistol IWB holster, I wear a belt and suspenders. Keeps all the weight from pulling my pants down.
Pen I prefer Big Idea Design pocket pro, or if you don’t wanna spend that much $$$ a Fisher Space Pen is fantastic. Multi tool is definitely a must, and the flashlight. I honestly use my flashlight probably more than any other piece of gear. I just started carrying a hank, and switched my wallet to a Trayvax OG V2. I would say, 1 thing you missed in my own personal opinion would be a watch. Doesn’t have to be fancy, just something to tell time, preferably with a dial because it can double as a compass in an emergency. I have multiple tier watches from Apple, to G-Shock low ends and high ends, and the one I use the most is a Walmart Timex Expedition.
I also EDC chapstick & a small (barely bigger than the chapstick) pill container (excedrin, ibuprofen, Benadryl). And a smart phone (which I guess goes without saying). I’m 50, so I also carry folding reading glasses (fit in a nice case about the size of a zippo).
Battalion - Always love your videos…especially your outlook on EDC…unlike Best Damn EDC …. You are down to earth…with your EDC not being on the high end ..just a normal everyday guy who loves EDC.
Love your list! The only think I would add is a lighter. I like my Zippo, but a mini BIC lighter does the trick. Sometimes the ability to light a smoke for someone is enough to turn a difficult situation something manageable!
I've noticed most EDC UA-camrs go for aesthetics, I almost fell into buying loads of stuff I don't need. I've kept it simple, groove life wallet, hank, pilot pen, small prybar with bottle opener, Bic lighter, a cahier notebook mostly with contact and emergency info in case my phone dies, sticky notes, microstream flashlight, carabiner, Victorinox SD, and lastly my pocket knife a baby banter, I've bought a bigger folder and didn't like how aggressive if felt, bought a medium one and felt it just still might be too much knife, the baby Bater was just right for all the small tasks and just enough to make someone think twice.
I like this, im very similar. I've been thinking of adding some Ibuprofen (for the girlfriend), bandages and small first aid, Tide to go is something that interests me and I've been thinking of adding a power bank. I also carry a USB on my Keychain in addition to the stuff you carry. Planning on getting something that can organize everything and won't take too much space.
@@musicbydeandre5242 I used to carry small first aird kit, Coleman sells a small one that comes in a tin the shape of the mint brand. I do carry a powerbank it's a Anker 10000 it's slim the size of a phone fits nicely in slings and backpacks. Alpaka has good pouches that can organize your gear, there's the admin pouch, utility pouch or my favorite the elements tech case.
One that you missed is a watch. Again not essential for everyone. My favourite at the moment is a Wenger field watch with olive NATO strap. The specs are the same as Victorinox watches but it's more understated and less expensive. Looks a bit like a Hamilton field watch. It isn't multipurpose, it just does one job very well, telling you the time at a very quick glance. I'm from the UK so I can't say Batallion in a Marine context so: Commando!
@@MarineX Okay thanks for your answer. I pretty much automatically put a watch on after showering in the morning. I'm more likely to go out without my phone than without my EDC gear i.e. watch, knife, lighter, flashlight but then again I managed fine for more than half my life without a mobile phone.
Great stuff man!! My EDC is not only for tool purposes, sometimes I will carry for pleasure. The beads and lanyards do help with pulling out of my pocket but l do choose a certain bead for flexing haha 🤣
Thanks for the great video, I just signed up to your channel. A big thanks for serving in the Marines, protecting our citizens, even the ones that don’t deserve protection, lol😅 !! This is Alan, keep the videos coming! GREETINGS from Riverside in Southern California, stay safe out there in this crazy world, God Bless.
That's an excellent list. Anything I might add would be a some-time item, like dental floss, extra hearing aid batteries, and an eyeglasses repair kit. Those things are just as easy to have near all the places you generally find yourself, but you might be inclined to utter a "Dammit!" if you need it and don't have it.
I have a small little leather carrying case that's about the size of a wallet that I use for the majority of my EDC. It can hold a Gerber Dime (not the best multitool but it works), an Olight I3T, a Case knife, a small skinny lighter, an astronaut pen, an allen wrench, and two flat 10mm wrenches and a $100 bill. It's also got a key ring on it. I pair it with a small Rite in the Rain notebook, my wallet, and my phone, and I've got a lot of versatility just in my pockets. The flashlight and the box cutter on the Dime probably get the most use, followed by the pen and paper, but everything gets used time to time. There's still a little bit of space under the Dime, but I'm not sure what I would use that for. Maybe if there was a pill case about double the width of a nickel I could throw an ibuprofen or two in there.
I never would have gotten it myself, but my wife got me a Leatherman free K4 and man...having a knife with a pair of scissors on it, I probably use the scissors more than the knife.
I carry a Refyne pen or even a Machine Era for a high end, but for everyday I throw a brass Space Pen Bullet in my front trouser pocket along with change and Ridge wallet.
Another excellent clip, sir! Two extras I'd add - a pack of gum or breath mints and a chap stick. I guess I need to get on the 'hank' bandwagon. I'm an old school bandanna guy (aka too cheap to spend $$$ on a rag)
I blow my nose on my hanks. Its also my most used piece of medical gear. I'm a carpenter by trade. I seem to donate blood at work at least once a week. It makes a good pressure bandage.(if still clean) I also keep a polyester blend "buff" in the same pocket as my hank. (100% Cotton)
I’m not sure why OC spray doesn’t get more love. If you can walk away from imminent violence without lasting harm or violence actually occurring, I’ll find room in my pocket for that. Definitely tier 1.
I would disagree about the hanky, definitely tier 1 in my opinion. And probably has a greater # and more varied uses than any other single item you listed. It takes up almost no space, weighs next to nothing and cost less than anything on your list. Just for fun, ask your audience to name all the uses of a handkerchief. You might be surprised, from lifesaving bandage to emergency toilet paper, it’s a item that often gets overlooked. Also I would add a belt onto your list.
I've been really wanting big idea dual click ti. They have sale for 90. Is it worth it or is there a better bang for your buck ti pen? I use a pen everyday but like g2 refills best that's why dual click was my idea
Can someone explain to me the obsession among EDC enthusiasts to carry pens and paper? I'm 45. I live and work in an urban area. I'm a lifelong hiker and camper. I'm a dedicated prepper/survivalist/EDC enthusiast. I've literally never ever needed a pen or a notebook for any situation ever. What am I missing?
Me personally, I only carry a pen in my pocket. The notebooks stay on my desk and center console of my car for writing down thoughts or things to do so I don't forget. The notebooks aren't really EDC for me, but pretty much within reasonable reach I suppose.
Knife: Kershaw leek Pen: Zebra F 301 Wallet: Lost Dutchman leather minimalist wallet Flashlight: Streamlight micro stream EDC Firearm: Glock 43x Other: i have one of the hero clip things on my key chain as well Havent changed these items in a long time besides the wallet which I change whenever i feel like something new
You need to carry a lighter. I learned young you always carry something to cut with a lighter to tie with don't have something use a shoe string then cut the other in half and tie your shoes.Then a hanker chef carry two one small one so you can hand a clean one to the ladies then a big one you can use for your face make a sling a dozen different things. Carry on!
1). Benchmade pocketknife.
2). Keys with Tini 2 light.
3). Mobile phone.
4). Wallet with a little cash and cards I use.
I stay light and cheap in case I lose an item or get robbed.
Great channel!
Actual edc. The things that matter the most. That's why I love this channel. You keep it real. I don't see any superfluous crap in your load out. Thanks, brother. I hope you, the fam, and the community are staying safe and warm out there. 🤙🏽
Agreed. All essentials, no unnecessary bulk/clutter👌
From north of the border here, when temperatures drop I take a pair of hand warmer packs. Strictly for if I get stranded in the car and have a 20-30 minute walk to get somewhere warmer. I have things in the car that I could use if I have to stay in the car but I'll walk to get somewhere rather than just waiting if I have to.
Yes! I've been doing this one for over a decade now. That's much longer than I've been carrying most other things.
Absolutely right approach, firstly hand warmers and secondly staying in the car should be the last option and implemented only if necessary.
My Tier 1:
- minimalist wallet
- knife
- G-shock
- multi-tool
- lighter
- beeswax lip balm ( can also be useful to lightly coat non-stainless knife blades after cutting acidic things with them)

Loved the videography in this vid! Absolutely brilliant. The one thing I carry in addition for my tier one is a lighter 🤷♀️. #Battalion
Thanks much!
Excellent Video brother. Clear, Concise and to the point. Great information and excellent editing.
Always on point!

I did consider it. But 5 out of 7 days I forget to put on my watch. So I thought it would be a little hypocritical of me.

I'm more likely to go out without my phone than without my EDC gear i.e. watch, knife, lighter, flashlight but then again I managed fine for more than half my life without a mobile phone.

One item I always have as my first tier carry is a Shamag .I never thought of how useful it is daily.
Great EDC video. Thanks for the content!
For me a quality windproof lighter is tier 1. Zippo is my go to.
That's an excellent list. Anything I might add would be a some-time item, like dental floss, extra hearing aid batteries, and an eyeglasses repair kit.

The Olight pen the cheaper 1 is awesome
Semper Fi, brother. Great video again
I know they aren’t for everyone but for me a watch would absolutely be a tier one item
Dude. Fire making is tier one I think. Well at least in my edc. Usually with redundancies.
Outstanding video. You covered bare bone basics. K.I.S... Again well done and Semper Fi!
For those who do not know.. (Keep It Simple)
Pocket knife, multi tool and flashlight always!
Thanks for the recommendations.
I never would have gotten it myself, but my wife got me a Leatherman free K4 and man...having a knife with a pair of scissors on it, I probably use the scissors more than the knife.
I carry a Refyne pen or even a Machine Era for a high end, but for everyday I throw a brass Space Pen Bullet in my front trouser pocket along with change and Ridge wallet.
Great carry
Another excellent clip, sir! Two extras I'd add - a pack of gum or breath mints and a chap stick. I guess I need to get on the 'hank' bandwagon. I'm an old school bandanna guy (aka too cheap to spend $$$ on a rag)
I blow my nose on my hanks. Its also my most used piece of medical gear. I'm a carpenter by trade. I seem to donate blood at work at least once a week. It makes a good pressure bandage.(if still clean) I also keep a polyester blend "buff" in the same pocket as my hank. (100% Cotton)
Awesome video I found it to be very informative i definitely will be using some of these tips in my day to day life😊
Glad it was helpful! Next time say it louder
I would add a watch and maybe cordage as well as a lighter
I’m not sure why OC spray doesn’t get more love. If you can walk away from imminent violence without lasting harm or violence actually occurring, I’ll find room in my pocket for that. Definitely tier 1.
Always the best videos. Relevent information all the way around.
I appreciate that!
I would disagree about the hanky, definitely tier 1 in my opinion. And probably has a greater # and more varied uses than any other single item you listed. It takes up almost no space, weighs next to nothing and cost less than anything on your list. Just for fun, ask your audience to name all the uses of a handkerchief. You might be surprised, from lifesaving bandage to emergency toilet paper, it’s a item that often gets overlooked.
Also I would add a belt onto your list.
I would add, a watch and a lighter or ferro rod, as I live North of 60.
I have the same Tier ones!👍
brilliant video
A lighter would be great also, even if you don’t smoke, could come in handy
i never used to carry a knife, but the world is getting a little scarier so i might now, you never know. same with the multitool
Add a pocket constitution and you've got tier one covered.
Chapstick and a small Bic lighter wrapped with duct tape. Maybe some otc meds, aspirin, imodium, allergy, tylenol/motrin
I've been really wanting big idea dual click ti. They have sale for 90. Is it worth it or is there a better bang for your buck ti pen? I use a pen everyday but like g2 refills best that's why dual click was my idea
Can someone explain to me the obsession among EDC enthusiasts to carry pens and paper?
I'm 45. I live and work in an urban area. I'm a lifelong hiker and camper. I'm a dedicated prepper/survivalist/EDC enthusiast. I've literally never ever needed a pen or a notebook for any situation ever.
What am I missing?
mainly because i write a ton of notes for work, youtube, when i teach, and more
Me personally, I only carry a pen in my pocket. The notebooks stay on my desk and center console of my car for writing down thoughts or things to do so I don't forget. The notebooks aren't really EDC for me, but pretty much within reasonable reach I suppose.
Knife: Kershaw leek
Pen: Zebra F 301
Wallet: Lost Dutchman leather minimalist wallet
Flashlight: Streamlight micro stream
EDC Firearm: Glock 43x
Other: i have one of the hero clip things on my key chain as well
Havent changed these items in a long time besides the wallet which I change whenever i feel like something new
Thanks!
You bet! thank you much
Kick that like button!
What about keychain and prybar? Both are tier 1 for me
Back pack and pouches
UA-cam corrections officer badge 📛 😂
Can you tell me what the right angle light you had stuck to your box in this video is please !!
This was the light amzn.to/3jsIozy
Rule#9
Chapstick
tourniquet?
For anyone, but especially if you have kids, a boo boo kit will go a long way.
Sig p365
Do you spell it, “aluminium” too?

You need to carry a lighter. I learned young you always carry something to cut with a lighter to tie with don't have something use a shoe string then cut the other in half and tie your shoes.Then a hanker chef carry two one small one so you can hand a clean one to the ladies then a big one you can use for your face make a sling a dozen different things. Carry on!
