edc [everyday carry] shaved my wife

[wild style]

Couldn't imagine not having a real tool set around the house. C'mon son.

[branespload]

i have some cheapie tools in a little plastic red box w/ missing tools and shiet.

my dad has his bag of tools but its always in one of his ancient celicas hes working on

tired of not having a screwdriver around, copped leatherman. #edcfail

[denimdestroyedmylife]

yeah i've got two toolboxes in my basement but i can't find a screwdriver for the life of me.

i should get one of those signs that says "one of these days i'm going to get organezized"

[BOY]

Been reading this thread for a while now, and can't believe how many of you guys carry a knife on a day to day basis..... is there any reason/need for it?

sorry if i sound like a dick, but i've never met anyone who carries a knife.

[BOY]

[santos]

am i a kid because i don't carry a knife??

Yes (10). Now quit derailing this thread.

I've started xmas shopping and I decided to pick one of these up for my brother. He'll love it.

I can't afford to get him one of these...

[branespload]

do grappling hooks even count as EDC?? LOL...

[the Repeater]

Couldn't imagine not having a real tool set around the house. C'mon son.

I feel like a failure for not having a full socket set, but it's too spensive and cheaping out on Real Man Tools is the ultimate wrong.

[markdjr]

Santos, have you gotten that hook yet? I would love to hear what you think about the quality, could it actually sustain weight? Do you have a link for the second one? Thanks.

How about this one?

I'm going to have it shipped directly to my brother so unfortunately I wont be able to test it out. Here's the link to the second one.

The Capewell Retractable Grappling Hook:

[markdjr]

I had looked at that mini also, but it looked like that one definitely was not functional. If I remember correct, the one you sent your brother is good for 250 lbs. or something, should be pretty sweet.

[santos]

Picked up 4 of these today. They are so cheap I just couldn't resist.

[markdjr]

Once you guys started talking tools I thought I should contribute my EDC. I have built it over the last three or so years and it's the result of working as a contractor, reading a book called the road, and having a general love for tech/design.

In my car, which is pretty much always with me, I keep everyday....

I always have a frisbee in case there is a terrible accident that stops traffic for hours, and frisbee is fun when stranded. The ratcheting screw driver is also a huge must, the one from Snap On is well worth it. Same for Gorilla Tape.

In my drivers door....

In the bag....

The Nike Flywire jacket is a must for the Pacific NW or any fluctuating rainy climate. The Lenovo S10-2 is about to become a Mac and the camera case is for the Canon S90 I took all the pictures with, I can't wait for a few more years of camera innovations that turn everyone into a point and shoot pro.

In the pocket....

And one more pick of some stuff the isn't EDC but makes the rotation frequently, since you all seem to like knives and flashlights. I was surprised when I found this thread, and then I realized I wasn't. Thanks for turning me on to some cool new ish.

[phen3N]

damn i love that WTAPS lighter case but i cant bring myself to spend that much on something so useless =P you must be ballin then

[markdjr]

Ballin is always very relative, I agree that the lighter case is expensive, but the quality is really impressive. I have found that it is the small luxuries in life that make a big difference. I'm a smoker and it has felt all the more luxurious with a leather wrapped flame in my fingers. Plus I don't always use the iphone case so I justified that the leather case would protect my iphone

[branespload]

Mark seems to carry some quality earphones too. Are those Westone UM1s??

[markdjr]

Good eye, the earphones are UM2s, I am pretty stoked with them. I've had them for a bit and now that the 3's are available I really want to try them.

[branespload]

Godddd I wanted UM2s for the longest but I ended up getting Shure SE530s for like $180 and never looked back haha. Please don't mention any new IEMs, my wallet hurts enough already >_<

EDIT: LOL TOTALLY ACCIDENTALLY NEGREPPED MARKDJR PLZ REP HIM LOLOL SORRY

EDIT2: ok got my bro billy to take care of it!

EDIT3: You have two different tips on, looks like a hard flex and a softflex. Asymmetric ear canal concepts??

EDIT4: Here's my urban wallet, isn't it sick bro??? (10) sup wildstyle

iPhone charger / cord

Highlighters / dry erase markers

Backup 4sevens CR123a

[denimdestroyedmylife]

[wild style]

Got an e-mail from Bill, urban wallet should arrive tomorrow. Pictures to come.

Pointless post, but I'm stoked. Bill has been great to deal with by the way. A real stand up dude.
