I've played around with various EDC items for years, but 3 things I have almost never been without (and regretted it when I was):
1. Leatherman Micra (carried this even while carrying "test" replacements.
2. Fisher SpacePen (Lost a few over the years, now carry the titanium version with a fine tip replacement). It doesn't write as nicely as a Pilot G-2 or other Gel inks, but it ALWAYS writes.
3. Leatherman Multi-tool. I carried my Wave until I lost it, carried my New Wave until I opted for the Titanium with S30V blade. Regardless of your feelings on the version (usually centered on the driver bits), it's effectively the same multi and not one version has ever let me down despite daily use and frequent abuse.

I've been carrying it for 18 or 19 years now. It has loosened up a wee bit (broke in actually) and I was foolish enough to loan it to my DW once, and she prompty broke the tip off of the knife blade.

But I still Love Her!!!!!!


I sent mine back, and they replaced the broken tool and did a very nice refurbishment on it, for free.
