Title: What's in your EDC (Every Day Carry)?
Post by: -Doug- on March 06, 2013, 05:16:52 PM
It's pretty simple, what items do you always have on you? I'll start:

Cell phone
Swiss Army Knife
iPod Touch (4th gen)
Keys - with 8GB thumb drive & store discount/membership cards - on a paracord key fob (made of about 6-8 ft. of cord).
Wallet
Also, I usually have a pen, or few, in my coat pockets.

So, who's next? What do you guys and gals always have on you?

Keys
Cell Phone
Wallet
Pen
iPod Touch
Lip Balm
Eye Drops

Whenever I go out extensively, and am wearing contact lens:

My messenger bag with a notebook, two reusable shopping bags, a bag containing my glasses, contact lens materials, one or two pairs of sunglasses, breath mints, and travel size lotion. Sometimes, I feel I am worse than a woman. Lol.

Well, on myself I carry my wallet, phone, pocket knife, sharpie, keys, spare key in my coat, and lip balm of some sort.

My car is a whole other story, I refer to it as my man purse. I always keep a supply of everything in it. I always make sure to have toilet paper, a blanket, spare change of clothes, granola bars, bottled water, a camp lantern, matches, aspirin/ibuprofen, duct tape, baling wire/twine, and a feed sack. Even though it is just a little car that may look clean on the inside, I always like to be prepared. I go out driving often and visit friends all over the place, if I break down or something, I want to be prepared

Wallet
Keys ( most of the time, but not always)

That's about it for me. But my wife usually takes 4-5 handbags worth of stuff. No, she rarely uses the stuff, but takes it just in case. I don't know what's in there, but it's heavy. She asks me to carry them from time to time.

My every day carry is my car, I'd list everything that's in it but all we'd achieve is a few minutes of life we'll never see again!!  ;D

If I'm not working and just heading out somewhere I'll just take my wallet, phone and keys though.

On my person, just as little as possible.


Everything else (and it's an expansive list of crap) goes in a bookbag so it's all close at hand but not weighing me down.

In my truck (or when I was a reservist in my alicepack)......I can't tell you how many times I've had to use the Portojohn (at various outdoor functions, work sites, or military maneuvers) and there was no paper. Some of these items are left in my truck where I can get to them as needed, others are easily accessible in my work backpack.


While I'm at it, I will amend my EDC list to my Daily Dozen with these two additional items:
11. Gum/breath mints
12. Cellphone Charger.....(Yeah, I'm on SBG that much..)
