How about a antique store/flea market/pawn shop carry challenge ?
I've done one in the past. Definitely not opposed to doing another 🤘🏻
I carry a Fenix E30R and love it! The pocket clip is also set up to clip on the brim of your hat as well
I love my PD36R. Carry it all the time! TBH, it is my first edc light, so I don't know any different. I handled a streamlight wedge recently and wonder how well people like it.
That fenix 36 is a great choice. I use the E12 for my edc. But use the 36 for a bike light for early morning rides. The 36 is also a great size for camping and hiking. I chose the e12 for my edc because it takes a single AA battery. My thought process is that in the event of an emergency, an AA battery is fairly common and I can likely replace it easily if needed. If power is out then I can charge a rechargeable flashlight. E12 was the clear choice for me.
I remember enjoying your content with Pocket Now and was sad when you left to do your own thing. But as time went on, I guess I got into edc, and I'm so glad that you're a big player here! I love your EDC content!
What size of glove do you wear? I am trying to figure out what knives you recommend would fit my hand. I wear an 11 or XXL for gripper or work gloves.
I have the Mini Adamas in Magnacut and it's my favorite knife, by far. Overpriced, but I don't regret buying it a single day.
Dude I loved this one! First timer here. And I appreciate you even showing how you went wrong with that big flashlight. That’s value in my eyes. Thanks! Awesome work ! Good dudes ! Be well ! New sub.
Luv leatherman, got my first and its the charge with the wood scales. All black and ratchet driver xtra bits so sik. Since then bought all my family various leatherman models and kolors😂
Great Video Yes definitely do more build edc carry
That is such a nice Benchmade, steel, colors, and all! Gonna have to pick that up!
Right on!
Love my Skeletools, but sounds like the Leatherman Curl would have fit what you described (file and scissors), but I know you got that one for the Bass Pro vid. Great choices here though and great video as always, fellas! 👏
I have an older version of that PD35, and I love it. But it is big, so I keep it in my bag, and I don't carry it around every day. I carry the E12 in my pocket, and it's a good light. Got it at REI too, it would have been a better pick for you.
Ive had my pd36r as my edc since it came out. Fenix makes the best 21700 powered lights imo. I think the original is better for edc than the pro model because the pro sacrifices half its runtime for power in all modes. I'm so glad they upgraded the original to the pd36r v2.0. I highly recommend that one.
I’ll check it out 👊🏻
How about a keyring tools for urban carry? I have an emergency whistle & flashlight (living in London it's less a case of IF something hits the fan more a case of WHEN). Plus I have some other bits but would be interested in what you would consider key items to look for.
The Taggedout in S45VN is a pretty nice carry, the thumb studs are great and the scales are actually pretty killer, imo.
Great transition !
The super zoomed out one was incredible, really gave a clear view
great info with a simple REI video. EDC bikepacking kit or weight weenies EDC knife blow out in grams. Cheers.
Great video today!!
Real quick, what is the small flashlight that you pulled from your pocket and set next to the fenix?
Yeah, I really like the fancy blue
Luv rite in the rain big fan since 2000, so much so that i bought a bunch of their pens and mechanical pencils, and refills. Other pens that I like but their refills absolutely suck, I swapped it out with rain refill.
I carry that Fisher stowaway in my pocket organizer....I don't care how small or minimalist you want to be.....there is room for this pen. Writes good too...
I carry a mini adamas but in Magnacut with a pressed carbon fiber handle.
I think the Leatherman Bond is an underrated edc multitool. Yea you need to buy the pocket clip separately, but for about $65 altogether, it's tough to beat and has a nostalgic form factor. It's not much bigger than the skeletool too.
I remember you saying the clip sucks before, but so far I’ve had mine half a year and had no problems with the clip. But maybe it’s just situational idk
I actually do love the pd36r as a home inspector. Never had any problems except the rubber thing that covers the charging port fell off
Same thing happened to mine. But as far as I know fenix is one of the few who waterproof the inside circuitry.
@powerart1 Not all of their models are internally sealed, unfortunately. I have no clue why.
Hi taylor. Before you try the leatherman surge... please, give the bibury multipliers pro a shot. I dont think you'll be dissapointed
Loving that Benchmade, that's some knife.
It’s so damn good
I have a 2022 Toyota Hijet truck, have that same spark throwing carby on my small little food kit. A snowpeak folding stove, a small fuel can, snowpeak topography cup with my old agency logo. have a little esee izula with the kit, a ti spoon and a ti fork, ti chopsticks. Have a toyota landcruiser bag that was made and embroided for a few people who worked on the new landcruiser, for circle of friends. Have field notes witr style expedition notebooks. Ti Topo pen was gifted at gieves and hawke last time I visited for my retirement/eventual funeral suit haha. Uses blanc insert. ti zippo from a company called pdw. has an outdoor design engraved on one side, and on other, a smiling skull with 5 blossoms around it. gift from guys from another life time ago... My edc also includes metric only tools from harbor freight, icon brand? For my Hijet, and for my xt250. My edc has helped over the past few weeks with my bike, had to fix a line. And when I was converting my hijet from 660cc, to a 1.5L T motor, big brake kit, new suspension parts, stack snorkel, rigid lights, solar setup and larger fuel tank, cut hoses with my knife. Used my lighter to heat wrap for some electrical stuff. Im currently using coast stuff. Have a 2000L headlamp, XPH34R. Is 70 dollars I think, but got on clearance for 17 at home depot last jan as they clearanced out black friday stuff from a few months prior. Going to be welding up tube and a light weight trailer from harbor freight to build a light weight camper the kei truck can haul around our massive prop, I like to camp and just hang out with our dogs. Great video!
Have you done a Cabela's edc challenge? If not that would be cool!
Back in 2018 I went to a Canadian tire store (it’s like a Walmart) because they had the wingman on sale for like 29.99. Opened the box in my car and a skeletool cx falls out and at first I was pissed but immediately was like nope this is way nicer then a wingman 😂
What a weird surprise!? You are happy with it? I still have my wave from when i was 18. I was able to fix it up and it's like new so I've not bought my own lol. I do want a roxon flex. I like the idea of it and the goat.
What's the reason for the heat shrink tubing over the clip screws of the Micro Arcadian?
It's a ranger band and the Mini Arc. But I use it as a way it's carry the band and as a bite ring
Did you go to the North Lake REI?
Had to watch a Big Idea ad before this, just made sense.
While the mini Adamas is nice, I definitely would prefer full size Freek, M4 steel holds an edge for a long time, plus the blade can be put through the ringer without having to worry about it getting damaged. Watch the DBK video on their torture test of the Freek, it’s unreal. Haven’t seen the Adira in person though, looking forward to checking it out!
I will say the instinct solar 2 has been my daily driver watch and it is vastly superior to the original instinct/instinct solar and will take 22mm bands so that is a good thing to keep in mind, as near 30 day battery life and with some basic land nav knowledge the coordinate system gps system is a very good gps means. and in terms of lights I tend to edc a light with anduril 2 either a sofrin sc21 pro or the new noctigon d3aa that I am awaiting delivery on. but I am curious on what your opinion on titanium bolt action pens are like the bigidesign slim, as it has caught my eye as I am tired of my fisher click pens opening in my pocket?
What is on your wrist good sir!?
I have a Lumintop EDC Pico around my neck, and use it almost every day. Held its charge forever! Need to get out of a dark room? - It's there.
Hi Taylor. What happened to the good old office, which became a very cozy home for edc items? I'll miss this place.
We moved offices and the new space isn't fully set up yet. But the show must go on
@@BestDamnEDC I'm sure the environment will become cozy again. because you have good taste in all this 👍 And I wish you good luck with this!
Agree on the skeletool comments file a scissors!
Ill just got skeletool, maybe change to cx one day if on huge discount
The mini adamas is the perfect edc knife, I just wish it wasn't so expensive.
Man!! That new Benchmade is killer!
Agreed 👊🏻
Please do a video on the clip for the skeletool I neeeed a better clip!!!
Got all the parts. Just need to remember to make the video 😅
Just a heads up you can’t use the coupon code on the Ti lookout
Would love to see the skeletool video
What brand is that GMT Pepsi that you are wearing? I thought at first it was steinhart but I am pretty sure it’s not.
Vaer G5 Meridian
@@BestDamnEDC thank you!
Do one of these videos for Scheels
Firebiner is what we call my cousin Pedro after he tripped into a bonfire
😅
I don’t understand the whole need for scissors in a multi tool, I’ve never even thought to need scissors, and if I have a knife it’s usually good enough
Literally hanging smack between the E05R and the PD36R Pro was the LD30, which would have absolutely been the light to have picked. If you want to verify that, go get the one hanging on the door of your alucab that I specifically pointed to and said "don't lose this, Fenix has made all the newer models too big 😂" Thanks for the mention!
🤡 I am not a smart man. Also, I'm 90% sure I got that one in the Alu-Cab the last time we did this video at REI 😂
@BestDamnEDC Aye, it happens to all of us 😅
what happened with the video at 5:35?
That's a really good question but it just gave us a great laugh around the office
@@BestDamnEDC I had to rewind the video because I thought it was part of a joke I wasn't getting. Good to know I'm not going crazy 🤣
Someone accidentally drop the scale all the way down? 😂
A PX/BX carry challenge would be near if you have any military friends to bring you on.
I don't know if you were going to dip the sandwich and something I feel like this would be the Superior cut
Do a complete EDC from Olight
What happened at 5:37 ? 🤣🤣🤣
😅
Do a Disney and a bike week EDC
Well, I guess I’ll be at REI when they open their doors!
Carry the light for a week!!
Bet
@@BestDamnEDC let's goooo.
yeah i mean benchmade i guess had to roll out a line finally to compete with all the mc out there esp salt series
Oh wow. That adira looks great. But not $200 great 😅
5:47 lol baby screen
Man I want to get the signal so bad and I’ve came close so many times but I end up just buying a knife and spending way more than what the signal costs.
😅 been there
@@BestDamnEDC 🤣
Woah. I’m early to a video for once
Cool! Me Too.
What you got on your wrist bro ?!?!
Very good review of the Benchmade products. I think they are really CRUNCHING for top profits on the pricing (i.e., OVER PRICED). Sad to me I honestly. It’s a great company with a rich history, but gouging in my opinion.
Intentional editing at 5:45 ish? made me think my KZhead was bugging out haha
5:36 What is this? EDC for ants?
That's exactly right. Totally intentional 😂
Road trip to REC in Ohio for a Best EDC from there.
👀 don't tempt me with a good time
@@BestDamnEDC You Can Do It
5:35 Uhhh... what happened? Why is the video suddenly sooooooo smaaaalllll?
I wonder why Benchmade costs so much…. *looks at packaging….🙄
This kinda turned into Benchmade pr0n, lol (not complaining, I love Benchmade!)
meh all a watch needs to do is tell time, pretty sure a 5 dollar watch at walmart will do that just fine for quite a few years. i miss when dollar tree had those marvel and DC digital watches for a dollar they tended to last a few years. now i just got a cheap timex expidition i got on fingerhut a while back to get my credit score a boost. still going strong after like 5+ years only had to change battery once. only way i can see spending on a watch is if you want an EMP proof wind up watch, then you want to go for quality so the mechanism does not break down too fast.
I use the Garmin to track my workouts, hikes, and to leave breadcrumbs when hiking so if I ever got turned around or lost hiking in the wilderness (no trail markers and lots of overgrown, unkempt trails), I can find my way back.
@@BestDamnEDC i always just used an old style compass and map to keep the skill sharp. far more useful things to drop the remaining 980 dollars on after getting a 20 dollar watch, if i even had a spare 200 lmao. most of us are not wealthy. most expensive item i have is a used leatherman wave i scored for 60 at a pawn shop 2nd gen sadly so no replaceable wire cutters.
REI -Really expensive inside...
Early for once
Glad ya made it 👊🏻

REI is actively engaging in anti union practices. Why are you giving them a platform? #UnionStrong
"OH MY GOD... A WALLET WITH PINK IN IT... RUNNN, BRO!!!!!" Lol. So funny how dudes are so scared of any colors that aren't black, grey, blue or OD green.
I'm not afraid of any colors. I'm very secure in my masculinity but it was a joke.
