This Blog focuses on Personal and Survival EDC (Every Day Carry)
Everyday carry (EDC) refers to various items, usually small, that are worn or carried by a person on a daily basis for use in everyday tasks from the mundane to the unexpected.
Springfield XDS .45acp (5+1 capacity) - Loaded with Federal Premium Low Recoil Hydra-Shok. I carry this in a Uncle Mike’s Number 12 IWB holster. Which was originally going to be temporary until I found a nicer leather holster, but it fits so perfectly and is very comfortable to wear, so I’ve just been sticking with that.
Spare 5 round XDS Magazine - This rides on my belt in the nylon pouch that came with the Skeletool. It fits it well, and is easy to access.
Motorola Droid Razr M - Purchase on Amazon - A recent acquisition which replaced the Droid Gen 1 I carried for a good few years. I know it is much more fragile than the tank (in comparision) that the Gen 1 was, so I bought a OtterBox case for it.
CRKT Heiho - Purchase on Amazon (Assisted Open Model) - Where I work, my EDC blades are constantly being filled and gummed up with flour, and this one has not had a problem opening yet. I carry this clipped inside my strong-side pocket
Streamlight ProTac 2L - Purchase on Amazon - I carry this clipped inside my weak-side pocket most of the time.
Leatherman Skeletool - Purchase on Amazon - Clipped inside one of my back pockets usually
Bic Lighter - Purchase on Amazon (6 Pack) - Most think it’s weird that I don’t smoke, yet always have a lighter. But why would I not want to have the element of fire in my pocket?
