I've been refining and simplifying my EDC for a while now, looking for new items and trying out various products to find the ones that work best for my lifestyle.
I'm currently carrying the higonokami, having switched from a small Gerber blade last week - It's style points when I use it, plus I like the story it tells.
The Flexy money clip is a great product. Originally picked it up when they ran the original Kickstarter campaign and have been using it since then - I guess about two years. It has held up great and whenever the grip gets a bit loose, I just switch which side I'm using for cash and cards. Switching it up brings back the original tension perfectly.
Below that, the Secrid Cardprotector is the newest addition. I picked it up last week in Amsterdam and have been trying it out. The design is really sweet and minimal, with a clever card mechanism that makes swiping into the Metro super quick. I'm still testing the product, but they sell a range of models that I might look into if it holds up well.
My Nexus 5 is still chugging along after two years, but I'll definitely be watching the Google announcement tonight to check out the latest Nexus.
The other pieces all hang out in my coin purse. As a writer, I own tons a pens from all price points, but honestly, a Space Pen is one of my most used. Small, sleek, doesn't dry out, smooth-writing. It's really great, and in lime green, no one has been able to accidentally steal it yet.
Sandisk makes great products for reasonable prices, this little 64GB drive is my go-to for office transfers or carrying data to client meetings and presentations.
The keys are a new experiment. I was tired of bulky keys, and after trying a bunch of commercial solutions, I was still disappointed. So I sawed down some copies of my keys, baked on tiny clay handles in various colors and sanded them to a smooth finish. They are awesome and I'll be working to refine the process in the future. If you want to stay on top of that progress, you can follow my Instagram (adamfierman), where I post most of projects.
