sry. No pix.


RR: wallet, comb... still have a full head of hair.

LR: Bandana, divided leather pouch, no bigger/thicker than my wallet, that contain a LM S2, fisher bullet, Inova x1 (flood version since it came out) and a BSA spark lighter hidden across the bottom. This pouch RARELY causes me any comfort problems...

RF: Change, V-nox pioneer, ranger, camper seahorse whittler or some other "folder." BM 710 HS best knife ever... Griptillion is a close second. If I dress up a BM 590 - I like Allan Elleshwitz's stuff.

LF Key chain. House/car/work keys, bsa spark lighter, v nox mini champ, Fenic LOP SE and occasionally a small "home made" pry bar all on a small locking 'biner like key chain.

Belt: May FAV multitool, original LM Wave and a Surefire A2 w/ white leds.

This is about all I can EDC with my normal work clothing, which is a suit unfortunately. On nights and weekends this would be augmented by a better light, knife, leatherman, etc...

I carry this with me everyday in a clinic setting. It's the bare minimum for me:




Clockwise (more or less) starting at top on the periphery:

T-Mobile Wing phone
With keys: Streamlight Key-Mate flashlight, ASP Key Defender, Swiss Multi-Tool, carabiner
ARC AAA Camo flashlight
Rotring Esprit pocket pen
Cricket piezo butane lighter
Leatherman P4 Squirt
Wallet

Center clockwise (more or less):

Guess Waterpro watch
ACE rubber comb
Heavy gauge Fender guitar pick (for jazz)
Medium gauge Flex 75 Herco nylon guitar pick (for blues)

Everything encircled by a Ralph Lauren Polo leather belt (multi-use--stropping knives, a tourniquet, a sling, etc., and of course holding up pants).

Be_Prepared, or anyone who knows, I'd like to get my hands on that magnesium ferrod pictured just left of the squirt and right of the compass. Does anyone have a source?
