Your Edc

Unread postby Tennhunter3 » Mon Apr 06, 2020 2:39 am

Was wondering how many people here carry a edc. And what's in yours.

My edc consist of hunting licenses, ferro rods, cotton also works if I forget milkweed.
Striker, button compass, 4 katadyn water purification tabs, fresnal lens, 25 feet of dyneema cordage, 5 band aids,cash, string relief wipe, a emergency light being a nocturnal , drivers license and a debt card, fishhook, needle gorilla tape outside package.

This has been used several times while in the field. Fits right in my pocket.

It's not the best edc but is easy to carry along with car keys.

My letherman skeletool Kbx is always in my pocket too. Sometimes a mini Bic lighter.

The only thing I ABSOLUTELY grab every day, is my Benchmade 535 Bugout, I'm ashamed to say.

When I do go on longer distance trips, I always carry an altoid tin with some of the same stuff.

Few other things I might add to a small package like that is a Goody's head ache powder and ibuprofen along with a mini glow stick.

What do you use the lens for? And what type of package is your EDC in? Looks like some type of heavy duty ziplock...

If I'm going longer, I will sometimes keep an emergency space blanket and poncho, but those add bulk and eliminate fitting in your pocket.

It's a fresnal lens 4x magnification.
It will start fires from the sun and it does work.

A mini glow stick is a interesting thought.

2 acetaminophen does fit inside it.

1-2 Toilet paper tablets also fit inside it well. One of the coolest inventions I've seen.

I do keep several titan survival blankets in the car.

I had to look up what EDC stood for - Every day carry.

I always have a pocket knife on me, and have al sorts of goodies in the truck

They are slightly expensive I was on the fence for awhile before trying them.

You do have to have some water from a bottle or creek to make them turn into towels. Most areas I hunt water is never hard to find.

I dunno the exact size I would say they create around 9 x 14 size towels.

If I was hunting/hiking in more remote areas I'd probably carry some other stuff, but my normal hunting pack has most of what you all have mentioned.

My actual EDC though is just my pocket knife & my Glock 43 or Glock 19 depending on what I'm wearing....which I generally have on me while hunting as well.
Speed is fine...Accuracy is final.
