I’m 64. I’ve gotten turned around a few times in my life. Once in Alaska’s Tongas National Forest while working as a tree thinner, and then 15 years ago in the Atlantic somewhere off the coast of Maine. I was Ocean kayaking and lost sight of land. I never leave home without my bag, several fire starters (fero, lighters, fat wood, tinder, stainless water bottle, whistle, mora companion, Benchmade Bushcraft, paracord, flashlight(s), lightweight tarp, water purification, etc. I mountain bike a lot now in the Maine forest. Things can happen. I took a header and woke up in the dark. If you’re putting yourself out there, be smart enough to be prepared and tell about it. This episode brought back memories. My Swiss Army knife has been with me on all these adventures, for 49 years. Officier Suisse

“My stuff doesn’t look like everyone else’s because mine is used!” That’s hilarious! Like the knife pages… dudes own hundreds of knives, arguing the minutia of blade steel differences but none of the knives look less than NIB condition… funny stuff. 🤟

I’m fortunate enough to see Kevin almost every Wednesday. And when I say he is just a badass goofball he really is!😂

Kevin is such a nice and down to earth guy. Loved seeing his EDC here.

Kevin's a boss! Love when he slide what I'm guessing was an amtak off the table because blade hq didn't carry it lol 🤣🤙🤘

Brilliant video! Both entertaining and informative. George is great as always, and Kevin is an awesome guest. Looking forward to more!

Nice video George!!! Kevin was a great guest to have on and kept relevant to Blade HQ knife and gear lines. Keep it up George!!!😁👍

To paraphrase Les Strout (Survivorman), "There are a thousand ways to make fire, but having a Bic on you is a lot easier."

This video was GREAT!. Please make more similar to this one

"You said knife? As in one? I'm half Filipino bro...". That actually made me laugh because it's true. We Filipinos carry more than one knife. 👍

My EDC: Big Idea Designs "Bit Bar" screwdriver in the front left pocket, Olight "Warrior X Pro" flashlight in my back right pocket, Bastinelli "BB Drago" 2-inch fixed blade clipped horizontally on front of belt, and the Cold Steel Black Talon 2 serrated in my front right pocket.

Love seeing a video about gear that's actually used consistently! Kevin is very knowledgeable and seems really cool too!

Finally realized what's wrong with my EDC light-- Just finished putting a lanyard on it for retention in the dark, thanks to this vid. I also realized I need a couple of different sized pocket organizers-- I'll be correcting that asap. Great video!

1st time I've clicked on this video series. I'll definitely be back weekly because of the host.

If you're carrying an EDC bag, consider keeping a small pair of channel lock pliers in it.

Use a flashlight to see better at night, brilliant idea! Why carry a firesteel daily instead of a lighter? Silly

Sweet video, love these. I also have that same exact Spyderco and its a beast.

Very informative video ... Love to see Kevin in another video in the future if it's possible ...

On a ride several years ago one of the guys asked me about my EDC. He was surprised that I had three knives (a neck knife, a folding carpet knife and a multi tool.) and a Zippo since I don't smoke

This episode was so good I almost thought I was watching KnifeCenter!

I’ve always been an EDC guy but this is a little repetitive lol. I would recommend something like this for a bush pilot or something

Simply AWESOME video!! Really opened my eyes on the importance of EDC gear. 👍👍

Best exchange… “What knife do you carry?” “Knife (as in just one)…I’m half Phillipino bro”

I'm glad I'm not crazy for having a backup of a backup of the main gear I carry now. I mean yea its on my body everyday but just recently I found out there a community that's like me that I never knew about. I always ask for my bday for something I can use everyday and carry everyday ever since I was 10

Love knife banter it's been amazing to watch it grow and develope over the years

Great info. I switched to waterproof rechargable plasma arc lighters. Infinite source of Fire if you have a solar panel Etc. plus they're perfect for sealing the ends of paracord instantly. I still carry the regular stuff but this is now my primary source of Fire.

I love this video! I always enjoy seeing people who are intimately familiar with a piece of gear discuss it in detail. You just can’t find that anywhere outside of social media. I also carry a ridiculous number of knives at all times, but not for redundancy. Someone taught me a long time ago that every task requires its own unique tool, and every tool is designed for a specific task. Take, for instance, a hammer. How many *kinds* of hammers can you think of? How many *kinds* of chairs can you think of? All of them serve different roles. So, in keeping with that, I carry different kinds of knives for different kinds of cutting tasks.

This is the best guest yall have ever had on the channel

I always enjoy seeing how others view EDC. Definitely some awesome ideas. Thanks.

Great vid guys. Keep switching it up. You guys are doing a great job. More interviews.

5:35 I lol’d. Poor Kyle 😂

Thanks for showing someone's real edc! Love it!

Keep George, he is a winner.

Y’all should sell some sort of version of his kit with the basics.

CS Holdout 3, Bic lighter, cs gas, zip ties, Vic farmer, dip and an old fenix light😊👍

I carry a Benchmade AFO. I’ve had one since they were green in color when first made and sold.

Great video George and Kevin , I love blade HQ and Mike glovers field craft survival company

loved the mod you did to your flash light

How do you pronounce your name? I have been watching you for a long time, and I absolutely love watching you scraping as I go to sleep at night, it’s so relaxing. Are you still doing videos about psoriasis since you have healed? The only ones I’ve seen have been about your knife collection and no offense, that’s not why I subscribe to this channel and do you take or have you ever taken public speaking classes? You have an excellent speaking voice that’s why I asked. I know I’ve asked a lot of questions, but can you please take the time and answer these? I have asked questions in the past, and you never answered me. It makes me wonder if you answer anyone please please please just answer me.

“You said knife…” he’s one of us. He gets it. That laugh was the immediate response that we all know well.

Don’t forget super small and light weight head lamp , a UV5R ham radio and a garmin inreach mini satellite communicator

Great video still miss Zach but really informative and better content then you've put out in a long time

My Yellowbirch Outfitters pocket pro is worn in my front pocket daily....inside I keep a leatherman 1st gen, stream light stylus pro, Giant mouse ace biblio (m390) a thin 2 sided field sharpening stone courtsey of Jay Yellowbirch, as well as a bic lighter and tinder. wouldnt leave home without it.

Just got my WE Roxi3. Got it in two days. Thanks guys and ladies. Y’all never disappoint.

Thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks.

I always carry tinder for the rule of 3s - No date for 3 weeks, months or years.

Jay at Yellowbirch Outfitters is fantastic and makes some great quality products!!!🎉

Cool EDC. I was waiting for the watch! Necessary item for EDC and survival

This brought me back to blade hq vids, sorry, the pretty edc thing just does nothing for me personal. Great job, and thanks to everyone who made this happen.

You can carry a lighter through tsa, I’m a smoker and I have never ever ever had a lighter confiscated. Just put it in the tray and you’re good to go. They actually don’t want you to put these in checked luggage, same story with lithium ion batteries

So, George, what is that fixed blade he carried? From the little we saw of it, I'm going to guess it's a Miller Brothers Blade.

Microtech Socom elite is my choice for a knife. Very lightweight, hard to sharpen but it maintains an excellent, durable edge. Fixed blade preference is a Mora Carbon Garberg.

Pinoys with blades.. we’re always holding more than one💯

I had a sebenza and although I liked the sturdiness of the knife i didn’t care for the thumb studs and ended up selling it, the satin bhq shaman in micarta and M4 is my dedicated “outdoor” pocket knife.

I usually just carry a knife for defense these days you never know, that's left pocket, I have a pocket Victorinox, stream light micro stream, two spare AA batteries, pocket notebook and pen all in a pouch since it's not a daily use.

Enjoyed this edc video, great load out and so practical. Similar to how I carry but I need those products.

Sebenza schmener - a Shadow IV is the Chris Reeve knife for an outdoors man.

I loved Kevin’s reaction to the Spyderco Shaman. Awesome video 🌀

George I really like watching you as host. I think you are a great down to earth choice, but what happened to Curt and the rest? Did everyone leave Blade HQ?

The nitecore p20ix is a good price for what you get

I wear dickies cargo pants every day for work... and as it's Florida wear cargo shorts outside of work. My EDC has evolved to include a loaded maxpedition micro tool pouch in my left hand cargo and a bifold wallet style IFAK in my right hand cargo any time I leave my house. Even if I don't load up my person directly with any of my other normal stuff [arc boulder wallet (countycomm personal flood light and pokka pen), keys, phone, main blade (rotates), Kizer Cormorant (in horizontal belt sheath), and victorinox explorer with clip] all easily dumped into a countycomm gaffer bag. I can still quickly and easily grab those two pouches for each cargo pocket. The Maxpedition pouch has: My backup Olight, a Kershaw culpepper slipjoint, a bic lighter in a exotac sleave, a roughly 25 ft. hank of paracord, a countycomm titanium 4 inch adjustable wrench, a countycomm titanium survival fishing card, a countycomm titanium spark wheel with spare flints, tinderquik tabs, a sail needle, several lengths of kevlar 50 lb test thread, a 4 inch prybar, nitrile gloves, a small vial with a single dose of excedrin, a few assorted bandaids, and a dude shower wipe) IFAK includes: A small assortment of bandaids, alcohol wipes, nitrile gloves, a swat-t tourniquet, quikclot gauze, bleed stop powder, and a pair countycomm titanium fine point tweezers. Just between the two cargo pouches I have options for things I run into daily for work and things I plan for the possibility of in life. Inspection light for peering at stock in dark corners, sagging pants or split seams, loose bolts/fasteners I can't tighten with my victorinox, impromptu candles on cupcakes for birthdays or impromptu barbecue, wound care from pallet splinters and scraps to serious bleeds, ppe for work cleaning to wound care for others, and even the unlikely imaginary scenario of getting a fresh fish for dinner if I somehow had no money and found myself homeless, jobless, and on the street. (Survival/fishing kit for me is just there for shits and giggles since it's mostly titanium and adds negligible bulk and weight. I get the occasional laugh at people's expressions when they see what I have in the pouch.) Pouches are great!

I’m trying to decide if I should get a Dawson knives handman in Magnacut. Seems like a steel for 220

Is George the sweet spirit of Blade HQ?

Uhm, please forgive me my humble question, what does being a survivalist have to do with what he carries when he is not being on holiday doing survivalist stuff for enjoyment?

Would love to see yall bring on Mike Glover

"Knife, you mean one? I'm half Filipino bro.." that made me smile coz I'm Filipino and I can truly relate🤣🤣🤣

This was a great video

Look like there’s another fixed blade that Kevin carries, but wasn’t mentioned in the video. Any idea what it was? Looked like it could’ve been an Amtac maybe?

What a great production

Did i miss it or did they not show the make and model of his fixed blade? Looks like a milmak CCW i think... thoughts?

Why dont you talk about his fixed blade knife ? I've seen it on the table,I want to know what in the knife design makes it a good survival knife. So I can buy something along those lines maybe from blade hq,know I don't know and I don't want the definition of a cute fixed blade

Uhh what fixed blade did he have? We didnt get to see it.

Flashlight knife and pen go everywhere with me.

Proud Filipino 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

My car is my EDC kit I can cut shoot or build a house with what's in my car.

Good video - thanks! What was the fixed blade?

next pocket dump, gotta talk about what's on the wrist guys.

14:50 whats that fixed blade knife?

Esee Izula is pretty much everything you’d ever want in an edc survival knife

Where can I find how to do the flashlight hack?

Really liking George as a host keep it up!

Would like to see more BHQ video uploads

Black Rifle is the Bud light of coffee.

I'm surprised your still with fieldcraft kevin. I think you might just be the longest lasting employee there.

Most excellent

You lost me at BRC.

That streamlight is high and low only . It is not programmable, the only programmable line of streamlights are the Protac series.

@3:57 nice one. I got that 😅

What happened to Zac, then Kurt, and others? I used to be able to set my watch by them doing a show but now I get so many different people, rarely get a notification...this doesn't look good for being dependable. Can you go 2 or 3 years with the same people or is there a revolving door here?

Will a Victorinox strike a ferro rod?

где можно подробней посмотреть что инструктор сделал со своим фонариком , я просто хочу подробней рассмотреть

Awesome Video Blade hq 👌

Just add a Firefly ferro rod instead of the toothpick to your SAK.

why not show what fixed blade he had?

The Russians didn't bring pencils to space. It's a myth. They used pens just like Americans. Graphite dust floating around a 1960s space ship would've been a problem.

Is Kurt gone now too?

Dope 💯

What fixed blade does the guest carry? It looks beefy.

Omg I love knives (knafs) but this guy had me doing the air jerk off motion through almost the whole video. Just reminds me of a mall ninja with some taste. Probably never been in a fight but he throws elbows like he is practicing everyday for the fight of his life. I know, we all should be 🙄. Outdoor survival is one thing but this guy acts like he could join swat and be a hero in one day.

You should get Mike Glover on the channel
