Official EDC (every day carry) Thread

[Guest RandomHero]

Didn't see anything about every day carry equipment elsewhere on the forum, so I thought i'd give it a shot. Post what you carry on an everyday basis, or most often.

You carry that every day? ALL of that?

[Dropkick Murphy]

Dude that's a lot of stuff. I don't think I carried that much when I was an LEO.

NAAAHHHH.... the knuckles are just for bada** effect. And the second pic shows 2 options, either my full size 1911 of SC glock. Usually carry the stuff in the first pic. Most days. But the gun stays in the car in places i'm not allowed to carry

[BimmerFreak]

Ok, I just pulled everything wasnt clothing off and put them on my desk:

This is normally what I carry, with the only differences being which gun and knife I am going to carry.

Gun- Ed Brown Special Forces Carry

Knife- Microtech

Light- Surefire

Pen- Surefire

Business Cards

Watch- Rolex Submariner

POW MIA bracelet

Phones- Blackberry (Verizon) and iPhone (ATT)

Wallet- Badge/Commission card= keeps me out of jail

Cash- I always try to have 500.00 in cash. Never know when you will be in a situation where plastic doesnt spend or get desired results...

I'm VERY jealous of the microtech man! Is it a halo series? Does it get dirty with lint in your pocket? what's the blade style? I need to budget to get one for the novelty of the auto OTF haha

Its a Makora II, serial number 00570 (yep, Microtech actually laser engraves serial numbers and build dates on each knife)

Joe, I really like the looks of the EB SFC.

Joe, I really like the looks of the EB SFC.

Thanks.

I already had the Kobra Carry, and when I had the opportunity to trade one of my Nighthawks for this, I jumped at the chance.

(we had sold the SF new, and the owner wanted to try a NHC, so I agreed to trade it back)

Joe, what's special about the Surefire? It looks like an E20 with an LED head, but what's the gold ring around it?

[Peanut15]

Joe

So now that it is a used piece of crap, you are going to sell it to me cheap. Right?

[BimmerFreak]

Its an E2L

I gave Surefires to everyone at Hero-Gear last year from Christmas.

The band says: Hero-Gear 2008

Yeah, sure.

We stock Microtech.

As far as wishing they were <200 bucks....I had that same conversation with a guy down at Lamborghini of Atlanta a few weeks ago.

"Man, if that Ferrari F430 was 50k instead of 150k, I would buy it today...."

Dealer looks at me, shakes his head, and walks way...lol

Its sad looking after Joes and Mikes but its what I carry.

I know that you asked Joe but I have sent some back before

When they were in Florida I sent 2 back and had them back in a week, They are in Pennsylvania now and I have heard the turnaround is about 2 weeks

They are normally really good with repairs and maintenance.
