Re: Please Reply: What\'s Everyone\'s EDC?

I've recently changed my EDC. Now it is:

SF M2, LOLA
SF L1, white
Chris Reeve Sebenza, small, plain
(6) 123A cells in a Omniseal credit card holder
Sebertool M3

Of course there is a bunch of stuff in my backback and more in the car...

Wow! B-I-G response in a short time. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I try to cycle through all my lights so I can feel good about having bought them. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif More often than not, though, indoors I carry an Infinity Ultra-G with me from room to room, and outdoors I use an LGI or, when a little more kick is necessary, an EL Blaster VI.

Re: Please Reply: What\'s Everyone\'s EDC?

It all depends on what the day ahead holds. I doubt that anyone carries the exact same set 365. Here are the lights and tools/knives that are most often with me. I strongly recommend all of them.

Most Heavily Used Lights (in order of carry hours):

When wearing pants - Arc AAA 2003 CPF Edition on keychain.
After dark & when use is likely - Arc LSH-S in pocket.
Night walks & other heavy use - Madmax+ Q3 in Brinkmann Legend; NiMH for economical runtime.

Most Heavily Used Knives/Multitools (also in order of carry hours):

Almost constant companion - Leatherman Squirt P4; quality construction, disappears in the pocket; most capable multitool per pound out there.
In heavier weight pants & when use is expected - Leatherman Juice S2.
When outdoor & heavy cutting is expected - Benchmade Pinnacle (Sebenza knock-off; no longer manufactured).
When cutting in a genteel settings is expected - Opinel Effile #8 or #10; incredible knives that are relatively unknown in this country.

Re: Please Reply: What\'s Everyone\'s EDC?

Now since you guys got me hooked on Surefires (It's all your fault /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif ) my EDC, at least to work is an M3 and an X5t for backup... for good measure I'll keep a 24/7 clipped inside a pocket.

M3 and X5 go inside a CO-86 Ripoffs pouch. (I was carrying a Stinger XT so size is not the issue; M3 is shorter.)

Re: Please Reply: What\'s Everyone\'s EDC?

My typical EDC:

Leatherman Wave, Arc LS with custom battery holder (accepts 123, AA and AAA batteries - glowring attached), small lighter, pen, Casio Databank or OnHand PC watch (both with integral 5mm LED flashlights).

In my wallet, I carry thee usual complement of ID and plastic, a small mirror, mechanical pencil, needle and thread, compass, Photon 3 (white), Swisstech pliers (airline safe), a few safety pins, nail clippers, flint and magnesium rod, bandages, antibiotic and hydrocortisone ointment.

On my keyring, Tag LED light, Glow ring, UtiliKey and keys.

Hmmm, do I carry too much stuff?

Re: Please Reply: What\'s Everyone\'s EDC?

well...i'll put it this way...quite a few people have asked me 'is that an ultrastinger in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?'

actually...i don't carry a flashlight. i have a lightwave led on my keyring. i carry either a benchmade griptillian/kershaw chive/spyderco delica and my keys. sometimes a pack of spierament orbit if i plan on conversation.

One of the six on the left is normally carried in a belt holster. Brinkmann LX with a facelift, MINI LGI, MM w/MadMax+ Cyan, MM w/MadMax+, Xenergy AL-606(SL TT-2L), or G2.

The Stylus in normally carried in a shirt pocket.

Upper right, one is carried in left pants pocket. MMM w/MadMax+Q3and McFlood, or E1/KL1.

Lower right, one of these is always on my key-ring. ARC AAAA, ARC AAA, or Streamlight Key-Mate.

Selection is usually random or based on where I'm going. I normally carry 3-4 lights.

Re: Please Reply: What\'s Everyone\'s EDC?

I used to carry a 6 volt incan sf for bright light (I have edc'd the e2, e2o, M2, and A2), and a one watt luxeon light (arc ls, or kl1/e1e combo)for general purpose light, and an arc aaa.

Now I carry a surefire L4, the arc aaa, and some spare batteries for the l4. I have found that I use the l4 for about 80-90 percent of what I do. The only thing that will make me change my edc would be a sf with two stage brightness running a five watt led.

EDC,
A Micro Illuminator has been added to my collection and keychain. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/buttrock.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif Nothing like a little R3 Luxeon goodness in a AAA size, it is now (by a large margin) my EDC. The 2AA Brinkmann is on my bicycle helmet and the Mini-LGI/McFlood is at work. Life is good...........

My current EDC:

- Benchmade 806D2 PE
- Arc AAA

Looking to add a pen, a Comtech Stinger, a smaller folder, and an LS light to flesh out the EDC.
