i see them but they're not too bad. some of them are just pretty ordinary/mundane tumblr hipster stuff that have reappropriated the term. that's probably partially my fault

man i am so behind on blogging and im so behind with whats new in edc, im planning to get things rolling again this week. i dont like the new sufu so i havent been on here in like maybe a month or however long it's been 5.0 :<

Selling my orange manix and XM-18. Never used them but I'm going to miss them, the hinderer is just a beast knife and the manix is fun to flip open.

Moving towards fixed blades now, folders don't really serve a purpose in my EDC now. I've been carrying a serrated Native which I also might be selling, doing some custom work to my orange Military.

I've been carrying my spyderco t-mag and god damn it destroys my bm 940 when it comes to edge retention and cutting capabilities.

I sharpened both the exact same way and man.. I must say I'm looking for a locking spyderco now (pmed you 35)

Anyone tried the Leatherman Crater C55B? I find myself mostly using the blade and the screwdrivers when I have a multitool with me (pretty much always, until I lost my skeletool on thursday :( ), I'm not sure if I'll miss the pliers or not..

as soon as I read "kent" I said Australian :P Is that a WA driving licence too?

Posted (edited)

it is indeed :) how observant of you. i have managed to deduce with my acute powers of observation that you are also from wa. and you shoot film! and medium format! hope you edc that yashica :P

edit: is kent a WA thing? never heard it anywhere but perth so doesn't even seem "australian"

editedit: and oh shit, you're tomorrow's white noise? small world

yeah the yashica is a beauty. Bit large for edc, stick mainly to my 4s on the go (amazes me for a phone cam).

pretty sure kent is a perth thing, my melbourne friends haven't heard of it.

the edc world is getting smaller and smaller. carry on.

Selling..., the hinderer is just a beast knife...

I shed a tear...

Flashpoint?

Probably not, I have my fixed blade game set for right now, Izula and a Bravo-1, as well as a tomahawk with RCS sheath :) Pics soon. I'm kind of over buying cool knives, I have what I want and am thinning my collection, probably won't be buying anything for a while.

my aa was doing this before it just stopped turning on. they sent me back a beat up refurbished one. for ~$2 shipping i guess its better than having a broken light

Cop`d one of my grail EDC items last week. Mac's customs Copper XML EDC. I have wanted one of his copper EDCs for ever now. Finally pulled the trigger...

Embassy pen is just supposed to be a bomb solid sturdy pen. Pretty much any pen could be used as a kubaton if needed, and the skarkie is ridiculously large and has a shitty tip/marker. It is literally a complete waste of money.

Brane - where was that money clip from? I'm going to be downsizing my wallet/number of cards I carry and might just get a clip.

I have the SS embassy. It is ridiculous. I really want the copper embassy but I dont treasure pens enough to spend damn near $200 bills on one.

Posted
Weighs more than twice as much as the original embassy pen at

3.83 oz or 108.4 grams (about equal to a roll of dimes)

I'm getting rid of my Spyderco Sharpmaker w/ DVD if anyone is interested, used less than a dozen times. Going to try to perfect my skills sharpening on water stones.

First time on here and I have learned a lot from you guys! I've been evolving my EDC for a very long time and I still don't think I'm finished. Thanks again to everyone. I will post photos of my evolution once I get passed the posting requirements :)

^ I was debating so hard between the SS and Aluminum version. How does the SS version carry? Too heavy for EDC? I'm carrying the Alum version in my back pocket at the moment.

Weight has never bothered me with anything. I like extremely heavy, overbuilt things. Thus the reason I carry a lot of solid copper and brass stuff along with stainless. So im a little bias with this question.

That being said, I have never once said "man, I gotta get this out of my pocket, its too heavy..." As a matter of fact, I usually carry it clipped inside the button part of a polo shirt while at work. Its right on the edge of being too heavy for this since a polo obviously weights a lot less than denim but I still clip it there. You should not have any problem carrying it in the pocket of you jeans...

I'm in desperate need of a go-to pen. Could someone direct me to a legitimate source of information on the SS Embassy everyone is speaking so highly of.
