If I take it out to show you, it won't be in my pocket anymore. Then I can't honestly post what is in my pocket. :nana:

Most of the time It is a Pentagon Light Molle clipped to the pocket. Maybe a cheap pocketknife. Sometimes a Nuwaii QIII that has as much bare metal showing as anodizing now. Perfectly broken in.

The Statue in the back pocket masks the profile of the uzi in the front pocket. :D

Here's a lousy picture but you get the idea:

a2ofn.jpg


Wallet - Coach small card case with essential credit/debit cards, insurance card, Starbucks card
Work ID - in a leather card case- I don't like the things on your belt, just don't like people I don't know having access to my name and place of employment.
Keys - Bison circle key caddie with house keys (including college alumni tag that guarantees postage if dropped in a box and will then return to me), car key, Liteflux LF2 and REI whistle, secured by a Black Diamond aluminum funbiner.
Knife - Kershaw Scallion - ti ni finish. I sometimes carry a Spyderco Native in its place, and sometimes a Vic Minichamp but I'm thinking the Minichamp is going to go on the keys as I like to have a larger blade in my EDC but like the Minichamp tools. I also have a Kershaw Chive which I found to be too small, the Scallion is about perfect EDC size when I want something a bit smaller than the Native.
Flashlight - Novatac 85P. Sometimes I'll carry another light, Jil JCR2IT, Liteflux LF5 or a Peak Kilimanjaro, but the Novatac is hard to displace.

Missing from the picture is today's pen - a Lamy 2000 which is darn near perfect. Mostly because I have a polo shirt on today and it was clipped to the placket of my shirt and thus not in a pocket!

My dilemma includes how to carry some other stuff I use daily, mostly my cell phone (LG vx8700) and my despised and hated Treo 700wx (simply a dreadful device, so much that I'm pondering dumping it altogether), as well as my Jawbone bluetooth headset and my iPod Nano, most of which goes in my briefcase, but the phones in particular are inconvenient when stored away like that.

guess you guys are all married, I didn't see a single condom!

I don't have any pics but on me

KEYCHAIN 1

Carabiner with 3 holes on the bottom (Home Depot)
hole 1 - Keys to two main bikes I ride on a mini screwgate
hole 2 - keys to touring bike, keys to panniers, P51, Proto key shaped screwdriver, spare "grenade pin" (paperclip formed into grenade pin thingy to keep the P51 in check) all on another mini screwgate
hole 3 - mini screwgate with 3" chain to 1\8" splitring to quick disconnect to key to my cruiser, quick disconnect has electrical tape on it so it doesn't make noise while hitting the bike, that was the intention anyway, but then I realized the little thing can't hit anything anyway, but it looks good and it looks like leather on it due to the recessed channel on this particular quick disconnect.


KEYCHAIN 2

keyman mod with key to the lobby of my apt, key to my apt door, key to my bedroom, key to life (bottle opener) black oxide blade attached with a lobster claw to a streamlite keymate

KEYCHAIN 3 - gadgets
leatherman E4
3ft Stanley tape measure (to make sure stuff I buy or pick up will fit in my panniers)
breath spray
sample sized cologne spray
ultra mini AXE body spray

Knife - CRKT M16 something or another
MT - Leatherman Crunch
Light - Usually a river rock AA or a microstream

Bic on a lighterleash
chain wallet, just emptied out a bunch of crap in it
a couple of cut down to size pens in my watch pocket
2 or 3 condoms
TOOBbrush

bandana (on my head, I wear a helmet)

I doubt I should list my EDC items in my tankbag, unless you guys want me to?

I suck at pictures, but clockwise:

Draco AlTin
Atwood Bottlebug
both attached via GreenLED fob/sinnet

Kershaw Chive (rainbow titanium oxide coat) used as money clip

Big Skinny Thin Card Wallet used as main wallet. Has a cool zippered interior pocket to carry a blank check and emergency cash stash

Chisco Marsupial used as primary keychain
Fisher telescoping Space Pen inside zippered pouch

Wallet and Marsupial go in front right pocket, other two items go in front left pocket. Nothing carried in rear pockets, although just ordered my first Moleskin and that may go in left rear.

Edit: also carry a Blackberry Curve (used it to take the picture)

I should preface this by saying I'm going to school in Italy this year (I'm from TN) so my EDC is a bit more minimal than usual (I don't even carry ID) but I still tend to be a bit of a minimalist...

edc3.jpg

1. Cell Phone Case (also houses #2)
2. Bus Ticket, 20 Euro, card w/ important phone numbers
3. Original Razr
4. Fossil Watch
5. Livestong Band (always have one on my right wrist)


EDC1.jpg

Spyderco Native (well used, hence red paint stains)
Nitecore EX10 w/ room key attached

edc2.jpg

RF Pocket: Cell Phone in Case w/ docs
LF Pocket: EX10 w/ Keys Attached
Left Wrist: Fossil Watch
Spyderco Native clipped inside pants behind right hip, right above rear pocket up against the belt loop. (clip concealed between pants and belt)

Seems I'm one of the few who doesn't carry a knife. Maybe I should buy one. (But then I would get sucked into another expensive hobby. :shakehead)

Anyway, here's everything (minus the car keys):

(Some of the bigger things get thrown in my bag.)

And here's just the lights:

Here's some of the stuff i usually carry either in my country, or when i'm abroad:

Firstly, here are my 2 favourite hawksbill blades, a custom Emerson CQC-9 and an EKI Lagriffe.

Next, here are some of my more fancy looking folders, with a rare Wharnie by Tom Mayo in Stellite 6k, a Loveless Drop Point Hunter-styled folder with a tapered tang, a one-of-a-kind J.W. Smith Full dressed tactical folder, and lastly, a 2-inch bladed Bulus, a collaboration between Peter Carey and myself in Timascus

These are just some of the knives i carry on a daily basis..

Took this EDC-set sometime ago..
IMG_2584.jpg
