    Tool (multitool, blade)

    I can't believe it's taken me this long to discover your channel. Well done, Subscribed.
    Already purchase too much gear, but now I'm gonna blame you. ;-D
    Basic EDC list:
    Wallet
    Watch
    Keys
    Pen
    Penlight
    Lighter
    Handkerchief
    Cordage
    Pocketknife*
    Multitool*
    Like many people I also require Glasses, and want the luxury of gum & chapstick.
    Of course I carry a lot more than that, not just for fun, but due to the Rule of Three's:
    One is None, Two is One, and Three is a safe margin of error.
    There are also different EDC for a variety of conditions:
    Essentials (as above), Workdays, Hiking, Road Warrior, and TSA-Friendly.
    PS: Briefcase, Murse, Backpack, Toolbag, or Get-Home Bag EDC seem like a lot, but maybe you might want to look at a monthly best-of dump.

    Tyler that is a very difficult question to answer. It differs from person to person. My answer is the least amount of tools that I need to get me thru my day. Which changes based on the day. On the weekend it is a leatherman, crkt knife, olight baton, minimal wallet/money clip. During the weekday it changes to wallet, business card holder, pen, crkt knife and olight. Some it is the same but different. Love the videos you are an inspiration to up my EDC game

    I have two distinct EDC sets for very different times in the year. My summer EDC is tailored to being outdoors and very active, as well as overseeing and caring for children (I work at a sleep away camp) and the other is oriented around using it at college, so I think the basic items between those are pretty ubiquitous.
    Phone
    Wallet (or some form or cash/card carrier)
    Watch
    Knife or utility blade (or both)
    Keys
    Pen
    Flashlight (optional)

    Leatherman wave- because of the two knives and basic tools.
    Brass Fisher space pen- it can write on almost anything and anywhere, plus it looks amazing.
    Olight s1r baton 2- small powerful and quick charging capability.
    Phone- so I can keep watching your best, damn EDC vids. I'm addicted! A lot of great gear out there!!!

    A contemporary carry for me is the following:
    - mobile/smartphone (already vital nowadays)
    - wallet (money, cards and ID carrier)
    - a good watch
    - a pen (a tactical pen if you want something for self-defense)
    - a small multitool (multitool key, Victorinox cadet or a TPT)
    *I did not include a knife since it is a very polarizing carry and it will not be allowed in a lot of places.

    I think you should carry some way to tell time. a cutting tool, a thin wallet to carry documents (money, fire card, multi use card, bandaid, sanitize wipes), some way to make fire, a small space blanket, a keychain flashlight, a buff/ handkerchief. Thats what I carry most of the time. The space blanket is situational since I live on the edge of wilderness and concrete Jungles. btw thanks for another great upload!!

  • @blake2609
    @blake2609 5 років тому

    From my experience, the problem with True Utility is their knives. 90% of the models I've seen, with blades on them, have an over-milled stop causing excess wear/chipping of the edge near the tip. That said, I did pick up their skeleton knife a few days ago, and the blade seems very well aligned.
    On another note, imho a bare essentials EDC would consist of some variation of the following :
    Wallet, knife, keys/keychain, phone, and sunglasses/watch (as needed). I would also venture to say that, while it's not "required", a pen & notebook are often very useful.

    @MrLiveWest 5 років тому

    I am an on and off viewer of your channel. What I would like to see is the best 4-pocket setups. I often wear only jeans and I think comfort and utility. I also would like to see comparisons of large to small carry, such as a downsides/benefits 4 inch folder vs a miniature knife. ..it sounds silly but if you said you thought a 4 inch knife was 20% better for cool factor while a minature knife was 20% better comfort, I think it would be helpful. ... videos are great keep up the good work

    Must have EDC tools in the following order:
    Wristwatch that is easy to read and accurate. NO EXCUSES. A phone is not your oversized "pocket watch"... (person pet peeve) must be acceptable in a work setting, no "smart watches"...
    Flashlight, NOT negotiable
    (Most used tool I carry, second only to my watch)
    A quality pen, must be ink for legal documents
    Leatherman or SAK type multitool that suits user needs
    A dedicated folding knife, legal in your area.
    (It bugs me when I see men especially, using scissors to attempt opening packages that should be opened with a knife.)
    A quality wallet that doesn't make you look childish on a date or interview.
    Optional items:
    A quality phone that meets basic communication needs, perhaps good for photos and video if you are a mobile blogger.
    A lighter of some sort
    If legal,and you are willing, train and practice to do so, carry a quality firearm.
    (Your protection, is your responsibility.)
    That's my core EDC in the order of importance to me. 😎

      @@thetravelingkites cool deal! I can't speak much on the G-Shock options as I only recently got my first, a GD-350-1BK. I'm more of a functional purist. Meaning, I prefer the simple efficiency of analog readouts over digital. Now that said, I realize that digital watches can display a lot more functions, but often times I don't need all the extras. My go to watches are diver type, simple bezel, with markers and indexes for general timing, or a clean 12/24hr field type watch with an illumination feature of some sort. My wife will vouch for my disdain of math, but I can look at an analog readout and be just as precise about time and remainders as someone with a digital, or their phone. It all boils down to the "fractional" pie chart readout, and I enjoy it! If you remember, come back here and comment on your watch pick, or hit me up on Instagram, @peregrine_command 😎

    I think it’s hard to pick a basic EDC. Different people need different things. I’m in advertising, so I need a wallet, keys, iPhone, Apple Watch. I also carry a Hitch & Timber Runt 2.0, which has a beard comb and the Pocket Tripod in the back (along with business cards). In the front, I carry a space pen, Lumintop AAA flashlight, and the SAK Pioneer Alox. Other than the flashlight, I tend to use everything else...almost everyday. Keep up the good work!

So I think my answer is going to be the one that suits your needs it can be anything from a pen and a watch or knife and a flash light when I started with an EDC it was just a knife and a Zippo and i called it a edc

    Flashlight: used almost daily even though I am in a professional building.
    Wallet
    Pen
    Notes: Always taking notes for account info and emergency dental work.
    Utility blade/ Multitool
    Tactical blade; again hopefully never needed but there if it ever is.

    The essential EDC list would be different for each person. Your EDC channel has caused me to look at every piece of what I carry, from wallet to key organizer and everything in between. I have put together a nice little collection of gear that is a quantum leap from what I carried before. Thank you for causing me to be more intentional about what I carry. One example is that I've never in my life been asked about my wallet until I bought a Trayvax about 15 months ago. I'm sure others have had that experience with their EDC gear as well. People notice when our gear is well thought out.

    #1 Wristwatch: Analog, or digital; the battery life must last years (I have changed mine once in 6 years of having it)
    #2 Folding Pocket knife, 2"-3.2"; EDC is one of my main hobbies and the knife I gift or give reccomendation to for stsrting is the CRKT Squid.
    #3 key Ring: $1-$10; I reccomend the Nite Ize S-biner (has two gates), I like to have an extra gate available to me for things like rings and such for secure pocket carry when taken off hand.
    #4 Pocket organizer/wallet
    #5 Fisher Space Bullet Pen; you just gotta
    #6 pocket Note book
    #7 Single AAA Pocket Flashlight; I really like Nite Ize for budget

    Absolute bare minimum for an EDC has to be:
    1. Knife - 100% essential
    2. Phone - 50% essential (sometimes distracting)
    3. Wallet - only the money is needed
    4. Keys - 100% unless you want to walk or be locked out lmao

  • @fortstache8051
    @fortstache8051 5 років тому

    Basic setup imo (no order) is:
    Watch - batteries last forever and more accessible than your phone
    Knife - always need something to cut with maybe a multi, utility, or a blade but needs an edge of some kind
    Wallet - money, money, MONEY!!!
    Phone - essential in today’s world and will serve as a light if need be
    Some sort of keychain - organizer or just something to keep keys together
    This is bare bones and simple, and anything more is just gravy!
    MONEY!!!

  • @cannonkay8947
    @cannonkay8947 5 років тому

    I think the most essential items are a knife/multitool and a flashlight, you can survive without all the other items, however with a blade and flashlight you can do just about anything needed to survive.

  • @bhcleadp2577
    @bhcleadp2577 5 років тому

    Basic EDC= 1.) keys because you have to be able to get into your house, car, work, etc. 2.) wallet because you have to be able to carry your ids and cards in a organized fashion. 3.) is your phone because that’s how pretty much everyone communicates and you have to be able to get ahold of people. 3.) chapstick cause taking care of your lips is important (especially in dry climates). 4.) lastly a watch because telling time is important and even though you have a phone it is less rude to check your watch than a phone. This to me is a basic bare bones EDC

    Imo the basic things of an EDC is a knife/multitool, wallet and keys. Since those 3 things are always on me, i always have a knife or multitool everywhere i go but at work i carry much more than i need just in case. "Have it and not need it is better than need it and not have it." Is something my dad always told me and what he was told by his father

    Bare minimum EDC starts with:
    1.) time keeper/sun dial
    2.) knife/stone or bone
    3.) lighter/fire starter
    4.) flashlight/torch
    5.) writing utensil/quill
    With these items or any combination of these items you can proceed to get out of any predicament the day has in store for you.

    To me an EDC is anything you bring along with you on a daily basis, weather your going to work, shopping, grabbing drinks with friends, running errands, or changing your oil in the driveway and for me these things are a multitool, phone, wallet, and a watch. Obviously certain activities call for a different pocket dump but I would say that these four and the back bone of any interesting everyday carry.

    Basic EDC :
    #1: 🔪 Knife because your always going to need to cut stuff open or clean up your hands
    #2: 🔦 Flashlight because you never know when your going to need to see in dark places maybe you just need to see where you dropped your car/ house keys at night
    That’s pretty much the basics

    @bleau_edc6094 5 років тому

    some kind of knife weather its on a muti tool or not is situation depending. a flashlight in my opinion is a must. if you dont have a flashlight its because you never have. i always have a pen and a backup knife just incase this is usually a smaller cheaper knife in my case. a watch is also very helpful. i also like some kind of scissors, never carried them before but once i did i will never go with out again. a pen and paper are also important your phone can die so it will come in handy if you need to take notes. and besides those add what ever else you use every day. great videos by the way really enjoy. just started following your discord.

  • @anthonyrogers1212
    @anthonyrogers1212 5 років тому

    I think an essential EDC should consist of a wallet, a multi tool (any kind small or large) , and phone. Hopefully you have a knife but I know that sometimes is impossible due to job restrictions but still a knife is extremely useful when you need it.

  • @dorkknight413
    @dorkknight413 5 років тому

    Minimum edc would be keys, wallet, phone, and yourself. After that is up to you. For me personally is a knife, multitool, flashlight, sunglasses, and watch. I do agree with a lot of other people phones don't count as watches or flashlights. Phone batteries die faster with all the things they do and the led light in them isn't that good.

  • @LoLcH33s3BuRg3r
    @LoLcH33s3BuRg3r 5 років тому

    The essentials should be a phone, wallet, keys, flashlight, knife, and a marking tool(could be a pen or marker). Everything else is personal preference.

  • @ryanlavallee6342
    @ryanlavallee6342 5 років тому

    Anything carried is your edc. Bare bones would be phone, wallet, keys. If you had a phone with a wallet case and don’t drive then the phone is your edc. Anything you carry everyday. That’s why this is so special as it’s so personal that it cannot be wrong.

  • @Afterimage121
    @Afterimage121 5 років тому

    I'd say a tool, knife or otherwise, phone, wallet, and keys would be bare minimum. I personally like adding a pen, watch, and flashlight, but they're less necessary nowadays. Phones can double as flashlights (albeit mediocre ones) as well as a way to tell time, but for me nothing beats the dedicated items. Things made for one purpose tend to be better at it than "generalists."

    @cm42mejones64 5 років тому

    I would say, depending on local laws, a minimum edc should include: a dependable watch, keys (house, car, work, etc.), a knife, a wallet (to at least hold some money and identification), a lighter (for fire or a light source), a pen that can write on multiple surfaces (sharpie, Fischer space pen, etc.), a multi tool, and a firearm.

  • @thomascrowell5103

    in my opinion a basic EDC should contain the following your wallet, phone, watch, lighter, knife and lip balm but, what you yourself carry in your EDC is base on mitigating factors of your comfort level, your job and places you go in your daily life sadly to say a lighter and knife are not seen as tools but ,as weapons in this day and age...
