edc [everyday carry] shaved my wife

[nicholas1987]

Ok, here's my first pocket dump contribution. Hope it's not too derivative. Sun's finally out which is great (and cold) but sorry about the shadows. I only carry one folder, but had the other in the bag today.

-Keys w/ Fenix E01 & old SAK (not sure which model, but has scissors. Want to swap for one w/ bottle opener

-Billykirk zip wallet (10 months in)

-PD20

-Ambitious (new EDC; wanted to try a slightly smaller folder)

-Pilot Precise (left my old Lamy in a coat I need to track down)

-CRKT B.U.L.L

-Zippo tape measure (been using it recently for projects, so it's EDC right now, but not all the time)

-Hill-side bandana (20 months in. Kinda just want a pocket square, since these are bigger than I really need)

Pic w/ iPhone 3G. Upgrade date is in April. I'll be excited for the nicer camera.

What color was that bandanna originally? Red?

It's actually called Plum Violet, even though it's much more of a faded red. I've washed it a few times. It's not the covert red one linked above--that one just came out recently.

[gettoasty]

i kind of fancy the kyoto violet though as someone mentioned, perhaps a pocket square would be suitable ... damn need money to buy it!!

anyways, anyone EDC a tote? yeah really. I think I will just kop a cheap lands end small tote and call it a day. will solve my problem

[oboy_oboy]

I've always liked the basic Filson tote.

Also the 3sixteen tote that's similar, if you can find it around...

[gettoasty]

good call on the filson, thanks

[seven.homme]

just got real mccoys denim tote and its good

[itschad]

eh, emptied my pockets

im wondering where i can get a brass umm . . . u shaped key ring thingy. . thats on the bottom of your key hook? seems a bit more functional than the solid ring on mine

[hollowsleather]

"shackle" is the word you need, they're all over, just google brass shackle.

If you dont mind waiting to get it from japan, Sumi is the man http://cgi.ebay.com/BRASS-SHACKLE-JOINT-Multiple-Wallet-Chain-Hook-Fob-/320653867458?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aa875b9c2#ht_5050wt_1289

[denimdestroyedmylife]

"bow shackle"

they carry them at the huge home improvement box stores and your local mom & pop hardware store

[Ed x TWWK]

They're not the hype knife anymore, but you can now customize a Benchmade Griptilian or Mini-grip.

the fact that you can add a laser etched image to the blade is kinda cool...

Customize a Grip

[oboy_oboy]

Still and always a solid, reliable knife from a great company. Kind of a cool addition. Pink & green two-tone handle w/ black blade anyone?

Kidding...

[denimdestroyedmylife]

mini grip is the new dunks

Gotta EDC at the farmer's market. Never know when that shit will turn into a survival situation.

[oboy_oboy]

^ No lie. The Farmer's Markets in Portland are borderline survival situation's as is. Be prepared to throw some elbows for those organic heirloom hand harvested sugar beets you plan to go home and can.

[branespload]

moving on

KOR moving in the right direction. BLACK STEEL~~~ just wish they had the no worry cap, not this twist off nonsense

[ordo]

Water bottles! Now we are talking.

Except I just bought five Kor Deltas

[kiya]

Any idea on the black steel KOR release date?

[branespload]

^ no, as far as i know they havent officially announced it. i found that on some singaporean hardware forum. i tweeted at them tho, hopefully they respond. i'll keep you guys posted~

[the Repeater]

Archival Tote.

Good ass shit more spensive but obviously totally worth it.

I think later this spring. They had these at the Outdoor Retailer show last month and I handled them. Really nice feel. Despite their status as Iron Man's bottle of choice, they are super small company, so not sure how fast they are able to move some things along. might be longer on the release.

Speaking of water bottles... My personal fav. I have yet to try a Kor though.

I saw these there as well. I love the look, but the whole glass-bottle-in-a-bamboo-sleeve construction didn't do it for me. Just seemed like more to deal with and/or break.

Made in Oregon! By extremely cool people.

EDIT: Mike told me they're bringing these into the Woodlands Supply Co. Not sure if it will be spring deliveries or later though...

[MikeS]

Are there any 4sevens discount codes out right now besides the 8% one? I know they announce them on facebook but I dont use SN... I think im going to sell my Q123 and get something a little bigger.

[gettoasty]

^ well definitely kop new KOR. going 2+ months w/o my original one now damnit ... i hate leaving things behind

[kenthenoob]

speaking of water bottles, i bought a Ti one a couple days ago.

[f50fan]

Which one? ^^^ and how much was it?

[Solix]

Waiting on a few goodies to come in nearing the end of the month. Hopefully then I can post an update (with video?).

[Lozinski]

Of course with video

[branespload]
