Theres been a lot of talk lately about shirt and tie kits etc.I just got this and love it. The mission wallet.The front holds my sak,a 2 cell aaa light,pen.Behind these are some of my Depts. cards I use as writting paper and some band aids.In the zippered pouch I carry a Micra,mini Bic and folding money.All in a flat,nicely made leather wallet. tried to add a link but its not working.If you go over to www.bladeart.com and go to gadgets and gear you'll find it.

The mission wallet looks like a good pocket organizer. I think it's a good buy, and will put it not too far down on my wish list. Many thanks. Keys

This looks excellent. Where did you find out about the Mission Wallet and what are its dimensions?

You might want to consider the notesaf pocket notepad from Brigade Quartermasters. it is a very similar item with a little more functionality. - though it doesn't come with a zippered pocket it could certainly be modd'd with a zipper on the side of the back pannel

It is 3x4 1/2 inches.There is also a larger one 3x5 I think.I found out about them over on Bladeforums
I really like mine.Holds longer things than an altiods tin and bends so it lays flater and is way more comfortable in a pants pocket.
At work I carry a sak,small light,money,pen and lighter.I hated having them loose in my pocket,this is great everything together in a well made nice looking "wallet".

I got one of these for Christmas and also find it very useful. I placed my 2x3 Rescue Reflectors Mirror in the main compartment and a small handmade knife in the outer sleeve. Nicely made and handy.

I like it... but it doesn't look right for hip pocket carry, more suit pocket.
As I recently "lost" the method I used for years to carry a folder out of sight, I've been fishing around for another way. My most recent employment is "business casual" most days, which in the summer includes polo shirts (knit short sleeve)- no jacket pockets, and not too many places to conceal anything.
I've done a lot of leather work (actually did it professionally in part of my misspent youth) so I've been thinking of making a leather folder for the hip pocket, wallet proportions, that would carry a folding knife diagonally (to help accomodate the length), but leave an inch or so of the pommel end exposed, and allow it to rotate up and out for an easy draw. I'd be looking for a knife with minimum thickness for this, so probably not something with a clip... maybe my old Al Mar Eagle...

Thanks, but I'm really not looking for a belt pouch. What with the mobile phone and the Palm Tungsten T on my belt, I'm already beyond the pale as far as a number of my co-workers are concerned.
What I had in mind was a wallet-sized leather device to facilitate hip-trousers-pocket carry of, and easy access to a folding knife, without it migrating around, or protruding ends, or telltale bulges. I have a preliminary design for a leather carrier to accomplish that, but I'm not satisfied with it yet.
