My Everyday Carry

submitted by Rob Nichols

This EDC page just came to my attention and I’m somewhat fascinated at how many other fellow Walter Mitty James Bond Boy Scout Superhero gadget syndrome folks are out there n the world. I went right downstairs, dumped my pockets on the kitchen counter, and here’s what came out (clockwise from top left): Ray Bans; the inevitable phone; Key Fob #1 with, um, keys; Mini Mag-Lite w/LED kit; Key Fob #2 w/8GB USB flash & tiny backup LED light; wallet; and Spyderco Military folder.

There are some very cool multitools shown on here as coming from other pockets, and I sense the coming on to have one. I like especially the flat stainless steel “credit card” types. There’s also a Glock Model 30 in .45ACP that I carry from time to time when I’m feeling skittish, but that’s fairly rare nowadays, and of course this was a “come as you are” unrehearsed emptying of pockets.

Editor’s Note: I like your separation of keys and gear, as it keeps things less bulky. Nice hardware on those clips too. If you don’t mind the Maglite’s size there are lots of new flashlights that can match or exceed its power in a fraction of the size, so that’s something to consider along with the credit card multitool. Otherwise, looks good~~ Thanks for sharing and I appreciate the ‘come as you are’ honesty. B)
