A story that may amuse you folks:

The very day I remove my Wave from my kit because I never use it, the electric locks on the driver's door of my car freeze up. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I was in our parking lot, having just pulled in. My wife was with me, and she got the pliers I bought for her out of her car, gave them to me, and I pried myself out. <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

The Wave is now where it used to be. On my belt. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, a little bit of kit I've assembled is composed of my Victorinox Midnite MiniChamp II, a Photon Freedom Microlight Covert (white), and a Mini Fox 40 whistle. This rides in my front jeans pocket next to my wallet. It's a tiny rig that works well in an office environment. No one is surprised to see me hauling gear out of various pockets anyway.

Another thing I've grown to love carrying is my Princeton Tec Impact II. The built-in clip is great. Clips to the outside of my front jeans pocket. Handy as all get-out. I've already used it to walk the dog at night, look for stuff under car seats, and inspect some minor flooding in a friend's basement.

One more piece of gear that's nice to have is a pair of leather gloves. I usually keep a pair in the inside breast pocket of whatever jacket I'm wearing. Since the weather is too warm for jackets, I still may carry my jacket, but I moved the gloves to my right rear jeans pocket. Right in back of my bandanna. Having gloves on your person, rather than having to go find a pair, is handier than you might think.
