edc [everyday carry] shaved my wife

[riff]

Sup guys! Relativity - nice to see you here.... Please tell me you like knives... You will then be absolutely irresistible!

Haven't posted in a while, but got my long-awaited Shane Silbert Benchmade today.

This thing is effing gnarly. They weren't kidding when they described it as "over-built".

Took some pics next to a Leafstorm & large Sebenza for comparison purposes. At $157 shipped, an amazing deal IMHO...

[Osmosis Jones]

^ that's the only liner lock i'd use. so beefy and loud when you open it.

[35percent]

Nice blades you got there!!

I need a new keychain knife to replace my CRKT peck, going bigger.

I want something like the Spyderco Native, maybe a bit smaller. Needs good steel, g10 scales, USA made, under 4" closed. price range is 60-80 so I'm limited.

[spudeey]

Boring Edc.

Foray, sandisk, saturn, swiss army, blackberry, jcrew, beat up moleskine

[Graytrain]

Sweet Jesus! You could deflect a missile with that thing. How thick does that measure?

Also, is there a place online that sells spyderco cheaper than all the rest?

[jonle714]

nice 755! i didn't order one because i think it would be too small. i'm waiting on the full size....if there is gonna be one.

[ubiquitous]

It is massive - about 1.5cm thick. Try spydieguys on Ebay. Others more knowledgeable than me will probably have better sources!

Thanks - I really like it. A full size one? :eek: I can't even imagine how ill that would be....

BEFORE PPL rep my last pocket dump i shouldve said that bm42c is not mine lol

in other news

is anyone else getting bored of their current EDC?

my gawd i want to minimize. cut things down to maybe 7 items or so. kinda hard cuz my leafstorm is so good but its also kinda big, but not rly,ffffuuuu. im just babbling at this point.

also, any good money clip recs? ideally it would be like a money clip that could manage a wad of cash + some cards, probably like a titanium/leather hybrid clip/cardholder would be amazing. but then i might as well just use a wallet mirite? iono.

halp.

[willy cheesesteak]

i have several wallets but after switching to a cardholder, will never go back to wallets again.

[branespload]

^ I'm feeling the same way. Do you carry cash with your cards at all? watz gooood

[willy cheesesteak]

i usually keep a 20 in there for those just in case moments where places don't accept cards. if i need more, i'll just hit up the atm since theres like a million of them.

[jonle714]

i have to have a thin wallet. i use an AA wallet (..i know). it's super thin and holds up really well. i've had mine for 3 years and it hasn't had any serious damage. and it was only 5 bucks.

[chris_n]

how many cards do you guys carry?

i have:

1. ID

2. car insurance

3. health insurance

4. AMEX

5. VISA

6. ATM

7. AAA

8. in-n-out credit card (beta testing, so necessary)

it's kind of a brick when i put it in my card holder and back-pocket it. sometimes the staggered card slots on a wallet help offset the brick-ness of that stack.

i dunno. thinking about going back to a cardholder as well.

[f50fan]

wish i could switch to a card holder and get one from corter.

too bad there are no cash registers or atms in hawaii yet (10)

waiting on corter to unleash another bifold in the sale. so sad i missed the first one.

[branespload]

1. Driver's License

2. School ID

3. Debit

4. honors study room keycard

5. apartment keycard

6. laundry machine card thing

7. remove trap card

the last 4 are really not that necessary, so iono.

[177itch]

1) DL

2) Debit

3) CC

4) Joint Debit

5) Disneyland Annual Pass

6) Zoological Society

7) Insurance

[jonle714]

1. DL

2. School ID

3. Gym Membership

4. Library Card (i go almost everyday)

5. K1 Racing card (pretty useless, carry for spur of the moment situations)

6. CC (emergency only, never used)

[U MAD]

British Columbia ID

Credit Card

Debit Card

Student ID

in the relevant side

the other side has some other bullshit like blockbuster card and printer cards. I have found since switching to a cardholder that all my cards stacked directly on top of each other gives me a bruise on the butt. Need to switch back to regular wallet+slot for emergency 20, staggered card slots make the thing thinner. Also my cardholder being only the size of a credit card plus a little bit makes it fall over in my pocket sometimes. trading horizontal and vertical space for thickness is good.

I just keep my cash in my front pocket since I have so little of it anyway.

@ Graytrain - Ebay usually has spydercos for pretty cheap. Or newgraham, knifecenter, or knivesshipfree

[rome1]

-DL

-debit

-CC#1

-CC#2

-Vitamin shoppe card

-Health Insurance Card

[Ryan]

In an Albam Cardholder

1. Drivers License

2. Insurance Card

3. Amex Card (most all purchases go on this, gotta rack up those points/miles)

4. Visa Check Card (on the rare occasions I need to take money out or they dont accept Amex)

5. Metrocard

6. NJ Transit Monthly Pass

7. One bill. usually either a $5 or $20.

[arem]

In my silver cardholder I only keep:

- State ID (I don't drive, native NYC'er for life)

- Bank Card

- Health Insurance card

- Metrocard

I can keep it to just this because I have key tags for stuff like the gym, store discount cards, etc. If I get given a business card I add the info to my phone and toss the card when I get home, I hate carrying extra BS like that around.

[geneticdrifter]

1. DL

2. Gym Card

(both in an ID-holder-thing. Clear plastic one for hanging your badge at work) and

3. Cash.

all in the front left.

[chris_n]

working on a new wallet to hopefully improve my back pocket card brick situation. goal is to have something done by next week.

[sweapea]

Chris, are you still making your leather "triangles"? I too am looking to move away from the big wallet, down to a card case & coin purse combo...

[hollowsleather]

I'm all about the minimal card situation. I just carry ID, checkcard, cash, and a piece of paper for recording vital information.

[f50fan]

still waiting on my bear and son trainer, been about a month already.

knifecenter just keeps saying next week, next week, next week.

I think i remember some of you had problems with knifecenter's out of stock items also?
