Small backpacks and mini-packs seem to be all the rage right now. It seems like everyone is buying them as an Every Day Carry (EDC) bag including men like me who seldom ventured in the man-purse or "murse" arena before. These compact, low-profile packs are perfect for activities like hikes, an...

The title is redundant, I know, but I got to thinkin'... I've seen all sorts of EDC Kits from Altoids Tins to small backpack and everything in between. I began pondering the whole Goldilocks & The 3 Bears Syndrome and thought "which one would be right for me?" IMHO, it'd have to have the...

I am moving to New York (job related moved)...I plan to live way outside the city, but I will have to commute into NYC now and then. Looking for advice on urban Every Day Carry. I plan to carry a backpack and will have the basics, but any thoughts on NYC specific EDC? Many thanks...

I'm hoping to get some feedback On my EDC set up. This is a rundown of my everyday carry on my person.* This is my Ruger SR9C inside my crossbreed ITWB holster. I carry this between 3-5 o'clock depending on my clothes that day. I load hornady critical defense rounds. I really like this...

Good morning all! How do you integrate your EDC into your GHB? Looking for a few opinions on my EDC and GHB set up... I work in an office about 25 miles from my home/BOL. I EDC a Maxpedition Kodiak gearslinger (soon to be Falcon II) with: - a small FAK (minor trauma and variety of OTC meds +...

Hey guys, I am pretty new to this forum, but participate on a few different knife forums. I always like to read the EDC threads on those, just to see the different things that people are carrying. I was excited to see the EDC thread on this forum, but was also surprised to see that many of the...

I thought most carried bleach for this purpose. Its the only water purification I've actually used. 2 drops in a canteen, carried in your cheap orange whistle/compass combo. My wife showed me this with Girl Scouts training they received and we've used this ever since. Then I watched these...

I have been using the piper gear bugout bag since the thing came out for my BOB. I also got another one a few years back that I used for school, gym, camping, etc.. . Well I am out of school, rarely going to the gym but I go fishing almost everyday and I take it with me every time. I am trying...

...and what kind do you carry and why? My dad carries a Case Stockman. I carry a Case Trapper with Stagalon handles backed up by a Victorinox on my belt. These cover me well for anything that might come up.

I'm planning to go into the woods & try out the bits that I edc every day. Its not that much & I know that it all works as I've tested them, but I just want to see if I can do it. :upsidedown: Anyway. Here's the full kit. Victorinox survival pouch, Smith & Wesson tac pen, Fenix LD10, Svord...

I thought you'd like to see what all can fit in a original Gunslinger. Basically a comfortable 3 to 5 day pack-- indefinite if you can trap/fish or hunt. You get the idea'er. I could squeeze my North Face 2 man 3 season tent in there-- but it adds 8 pounds. 2 weeks ago I walked up into the local...

I have heard everyone talk about BOBs, BOLs, and BOVs but not much talk about your EDC (every day carry). I will have to rely on my EDC to get me to my home and then decide on the appropriate action. Any comments would be appreciated.

I want an EDC bag in Attache or Messenger style. Not too tactical if possible. I wear a tie to work and don't want it to stand out too much. Maxpeditions are too much $$$. What cheaper alternatives are out there? (and where to buy them) Also any opinion on County Comm bail out bags...

Lets pretend there is a drawn out SHTF situation and you happen to be in an urban situation. The S has HTF for a couple months now and everybody is scraping for every last bit of food and other supplies. it is kinda dangerous out there. So you have to leave you well stocked BOL for some...

Maybe I'm just blind, but I've searched and searched, and can't seem to find an epic Every Day Carry topic, so if there is one, forgive my ignorance. But in any event, my EDC is constantly changing, and the stuff I've got here is subject to change frequently. I know some of it is going to change...
