EDC: The real world Everyday Carry

[BritKLR]

So, what do you all carry on a daily basis?

Post anything EG: guns, knives, comms, commuter bag for riding the train in, Overland travel, hiking, biking, motorcycle, etc......

I've EDC'd for over 40 years, 30 years professionally and the rest in retirement. It's not a fade and some of it has saved lives. Cheers.

Version 2025 EDC

In the Jeep:

Tow strap
Receiver Shackle
1st aid kit
Buck Knife
Window breaking / seat belt cutting / flashlight tool
Water bottle
Spare change
Tire pressure gauge

In the Bike:
Visor wipes
Advil
Spare change
Water bottle
Baseball Cap
Tire pressure gauge
Clear and tinted safety glasses in case I want to ride with my visor up.
Tool kit that came with the bike.

I have AMA as well, so for everyday type stuff I'd likely just call them.

Reviewing my list, I should add a small 1st aid kit to the bike & maybe a small air compressor (if that exists) & tire patch kit.

When I leave home I generally carry my lifetime TN Sport license, Federal Senior Pass, AAA, health ins and credit cards. All conveniently fits in hip wallet.

It very much depends on work, personal, where I am going, where I am currently at.

At a minimum my Leatherman (Actual Leatherman, not off brand), Suunto vertical solar, phone/wallet.

Each truck is well equipped, as well as the moto. Plugs, pumps, recovery, axe, knife, etc

And then I have a backpack, that is usually flung over the passenger seat, that has battery pack, headlamp, flashlight, in reach mini, soft signal mirror, gloves, shemagh, buff, beanie, water bottle, second Leatherman wave, and a few other things. Depending on the days plans, Baretta Px4 Storm. 40 sub compact.

It depends on location, but always have my Benchmade Griptillian Rope Wrench.

Leatherman, not off brand. Used to be PS2, now a Rebar. Surge in the center console of the truck. Swiss army knife if I dont have my Leatherman, but also a Byrd Cara Cara sheepsfoot serrated too in center console, for seatbelts if it comes to it. Spyderco Native 5 on hip. Wallet. Keyring has a little Olight EOS. Keep a MagLite XL 50 in the truck so its handy at home or to and from work. Use it for walking the dog at night or early mornings as we get a lot of coyotes, bear and deer. And a SureFire OG Nitrolon that's been converted to LED is in my lunchbox so its handy if I'm at work, in the truck, or at home.
