I want to see the 8 hours of Brian using the striker

Gentleman: hip flask and a revolver Scoundrel: butterfly knife and a pack of cigarettes Warrior: Battle axe and a jug of mead

Brian, you're absolutely right. Your every day carry is going to be totally different than mine. I keep mine very simple: small pouch as a container, note pad, pen, pencil, small folding knife, 10 ft paracord and 40 bucks. Those are things that I would need every day, so I take them with me every day.

im 100% with brian on this one. edc is every day carry, its what you carry every day!! this is some kind of mini bug out bag. you dont buy edc "kits", you just acquire what you need and discard what you dont. where we differ is a lot of the stuff i carry i dont NEED everyday. my edc is more survivalist stuff. my edc: rr pocket; pocket knife (similar ot the one in the first kit from what i could see) and tactical pen. not because its a tactical pen, but because its in my back pocket, and a plastic pen gets broke when i sit on it. lr pocket; wallet with ids, cc's, cash, a small diy hook lock pick and tension wrench and a universal key measurer (all in wallet) rf pocket: main keys (house, work, truck) loose change lf pocket: backup keys (a few garages, out buildings, ect) small flashlight, lighter (dont smoke), and a paper towel or hankercheif (in case allergies strike) hip; pistol - cargo pocket; phone. mainly only ever use the pen, knife, keys, cash and phone consistently every day.

"Am I afraid, here in Texas, that I'm going to get emergency cold?" Well that comment aged like milk

EDC really is a hard one for me. For a long time I never really considered a need for one until I started taking stock of my life and the things I did day to day and it's made me reconsider. Brian makes a valid point about the "EDC kit" being a little out there, sure theres a nice aspect to things like the knife, the multi tool card isnt a terrible idea, the paracord bracelet isnt bad, but a lot of it seems incredibly pointless. Urban EDC, if you wanna break it down is a few things. Your phone, wallet, keys, a pen of some sort (Fischer space pen is a good small option), some form of writing pad or notebook (field notes is a personal favorite), a multi tool (add or remove based on your needs), a flashlight (maglite mini is a good inexpensive option), and a solid knife. From there flavor to taste, do you need a med kit on you regularly because you're an EMS worker, do you need survival equipment if you live in a more rural area? What about flash drives, cords, battery banks, etc. If you're in an IT field? If you've never really considered EDC sit down and give it a few minutes thought. I for a long time didnt but after realizing the regularity I found a need for some items, it changed what I carried and with good reason. I saw EDC as similar to prepping, unnecessary and a little weird, yes be prepared, no dont own a military bunker just cause. EDC though is different, it's about carrying items that help you and make your life easier, not harder and that is what you should take away from this. Also Brian and Jason both need to just be followed by paramedics constantly cause I swear

Breaths are still recommended in CPR unless you don’t have a “cootie protector”

I don't think the idea of an everyday carry kit is "something you use every day". I think it's to have some things on hand at all times in case of an emergency and you don't have time to get to the store / house / office etc. to get your normal bug out bag or toolbox or first aid kit etc. You don't really want to carry around a duffel bag full of stuff, so you boil it down to a few essentials that have multiple uses.

Please make your own EDC kit with some medical stuff. Would love to see modern rogue branded EDC.

Why am I carrying around an emergency blanket, am I worried that here in Texas I'm going to get emergency cold.......can Brian predict the future?

If you look for EDC's on forums/youtube/wherever you'll find that they have almost nothing in common with those kits you have. As Brian said those are essentially mini-bug out bags. The core items in most EDC's on the internet are typically as follows: -Knife -Keys (car+house) -Pen + possibly small notebook -Flashlight (on this list this is probably the least carried item because of phone flashlights) -Phone -Wallet -Self defense item such as a gun (subject to state/country law obviously) Obviously each individuals EDC will be different, for example a Lawyer would have a vastly different EDC to say a machinist, but those listed are the items you'd find on average in an EDC.

Those "backpack straps" are meant to weave through into Fighting Load Carriers (FLCs) and Plate Carriers (body armor) so it's easily accessible and doesn't flap or dangle around. What you essentially bought is an IFAK (individual first aid kit) that's missing a tourniquet and added survival tools, with really bright glow sticks (if they're military grade) that last for around 12 hours for emergencies. Also, just because you opened it (the very first thing you opened) that pressure bandage is no longer sterile. Edit: Dummy me, looked back to see you didn't actually open the bandage itself XP you sterile. The bandage, not you. Unless you got snipped. Then you sterile

Well, now at least you'll have something nearby when the injury counter gets reset

I would certainly fall on the "warrior" side of a paradigm, so my EDC contains: (1) My CCW firearm and mags. (2) A useful knife (swiss army or multitool), sometimes with a backup belt knife if appropriate to carry (can't legally conceal a knife in my state, so it has to be open carry). (3) Fire (a lighter, because it is your EDC - you can check to see it is in good function any time you want) - ferro rods are for long term survival or a kit that might sit dormant for a decade or two without use. (4) 2 bandanas in 2 colors, bright and dull, for bandages, signaling (thus two colors), for standing out or not standing out, blowing snot, mopping spills, etc (5) A small LED flashlight (again, check it any time you want to know your batteries are good) (6) A bit of paracord (laced invisibly as my shoelaces) (7) Pens (for writing) and a sheet of paper (to write on, folded into my wallet with the cash or absence of cash) (8) Emergency cash (separate from the spending cash, but still tucked into my wallet) (for me, about $200 - enough to get out of a store with my groceries if say they can't take my card due to a tech issue with the readers). (9) Earplugs (nice for large crowds/sporting events and if I have a chance in a gunfight) (10) Handcuff key (on keychain) and paperclips in the wallet (easy to reach when your hands are behind your back, clipped over some loyalty cards in an upright wallet) - the paperclips are useful to pick or shim cuffs and pick common residential doors (as well as use as wire ties, fish hooks, hanging things on a line, etc). That all lives in my pant's pockets every day arranged the same way so I can access them by memory. Only thing missing to completely get home would be food/water and potentially protection from extreme elements - but food and water are everywhere in modern society (just raid a snack machine in a breakroom) and keep dress for the weather (wet or cold being most necessary). Of course, your vehicle should have a real get-home back with the camping gear, etc for an extended walk home (assume you are limping at 1/2MPH for a worse case understanding of the duration of the get-home period). It should also be prepped for a "stranded in the car" scenario for 3+ days. I've never had need for the handcuff key or the CCW. All of the other things are used, some of them very regularly once you realize the utility of having them on you.

"When I see an emergency blanket I think why do I need that it isn't like I'm going to be emergency cool in texas" little did they know...

So, going through this Texas winter storm, yeah that blanket could come in handy

Snake bite on the hand. Good thing I’ve got this saw chain to take my hand off 😉

I love the timers on the popup info. It lets me know if I need to pause and read so I don't miss it and have to rewind. Nice touch guys!

I'd mostly agree with Brian in that your kit bag should be stuff you use every day, but I'd also say its something you _might_ need at a moment's notice. I often carry a small multitool, hardly use most of what's on it, but the fact it has pliers and a selection of screwdrivers is invaluable to me when I need to make a quick repair to something.

Prob been said before but these are not EDC. EDC is usualy what a person has on them on an average day. Even if its just your phone its EDC. This is more like a good way to take a basic EDC bag and make it a starter bug out bag. Pretty sure Adam Savage has a vid of his EDC that would be a good example. Would love to see Brian and Jason do a EDC vid like whatever Brian has in his bag.

Please do the three modern rogue edc’s for a vid, I want to know! For the gentleman, please include a handkerchief!

It buggers the imagination that an "EDC kit" would be something available from a store. To my mind, EDC is whatever _you_ - personally - _carry every day_ - which is obviously going to vary wildly from person to person. Do you regularly smoke? Cigarettes (or tobacco, filters and papers) and lighter would be part of your "EDC". Do you live in an area that allows concealed carry of firearms for personal defence? A firearm and a suitable holster may be part of your "EDC". EDC also varies from situation to situation. My EDC in town merely overlaps with my EDC in the bush - because I'm not likely to encounter all of the same risks in town as are possible/likely in the bush and I'm not likely to need USB memory sticks in the wilderness. I _am_ going to need my vape, extra ejuice and spare batteries wherever I am, likewise my wallet. Certain things, like a pocket magnifying glass, Leatherman, lighter and small flashlight, are potentially useful anywhere so I always carry them. I count EDC as only what I always have in my pockets or otherwise on my person. Anything I carry in a pack, 72-hour bag, briefcase etc is not "EDC" since I'm not carrying them _every_ day. A pen - identical to the one in the first kit - is part of my EDC (as is a spiral-bound notebook to jot things down or write notes I can tear out and leave (or give to) someone), paracord bracelet is fine for EDC but most of the stuff in the first kit is stuff I'd only count as "EDC" if I were out camping/hiking. The second looks like a great First aid kit, to me, but something you carry in your car or in your pack/72-hour bag when camping - unless you're an actual paramedic. I definitely concur, those kits look more like poor relations of bug-out bags than actual EDC. For a start, where's the point in the bulky bag or even the snap-lock box? EDC should be comfortable to carry and compact enough to have on you all the time, not something you might take off and put down or would inconvenience you to have on your person at all times. My EDC's scattered about my pockets, which distributes the load and makes sure I haven't got a bulky/weighty mass in any one place - and it's stuff that I either use every day (wallet, vape, pen) or am likely to need at a moment's notice (I've needed to use my Leatherman often enough at random times that it's worth carrying all the time and you never know when you'll wind up being delayed somewhere until after dark and will need to use a flashlight)

Just like I did for the bug-out bag, here is my "critique" of these particular EDC bags: Size: Jason nailed it with "If you want to look like a weirdo". Contrary to what Brian said, EDC stands for 'every day carry' and is supposed to be just that. Something you put in your pockets/bag every morning, and only take out when you go to bed. Ideally, if you want a 'survival kit', it shouldn't be bigger than an Altoids tin. Look up altoids tin survival kit on KZfaq, you'll find some great stuff. USB flash drives: Great! I myself carry multiple electronic devices and doodads with me every day, including a USB network card that can be put into monitor and insertion mode :-) EDC being first aid: Of course it is. Multiple times, I have been really glad that I was carrying band-aids, or scissors, or safety pins, or disinfectant, etc, etc, etc. I have never been in an urban situation where a carabiner was of any use to anyone. Emergency blankets in Texas: that's why you customize your kit. Water bottle clip: I have never needed that, I just keep my bottle in my backpack. Paracord bracelet: cool, but only a couple feet of paracord and some basic supplies which can easily be stored someplace else. And it looks very survival-y, so depending on what you want that could be a negative or a positive. As an aside, you don't need any cordage to construct a simple A-frame shelter. Ferro rod is fine, but also carry a lighter. Flashlight is always cool, and they probably didn't put batteries in for storage purposes, but still. This is why you check everything before use. Tactical pen/knife: valid self-defense options, two-tiered. Approved, as long as you put them somewhere you can get them quickly. Whistle: cool. Again, approved as long as its within easy reach. Saw that is a chain: useless in my experience. Will break. 6:44 hits the nail on the head :-) Carry all the things Brian said, except maybe the porn :-) The more medical one Jason was unpacking I had much less to gripe about, but it IS NOT AN EVERYDAY CARRY KIT. It is more of a combat first aid kit with some survival elements. The MR EDC should be something like this: -Flashlight -Tactical pen -Pocketknife -Tactical knife -Multi tool -Wristwatch -Wallet with cash -Rudimentary first aid -Glasses if you need them -Gun if legal -Ammo if legal For more pointers, check out Nutnfancy's old gear check videos.

My EDC : - Leatherman Skeletool - Wallet with one of those credit card multitool inside - my vape + vape liquid - my phone + keys - notepad + pencil - 3 foot of reusable gauze - a pack of tissues - a USB drive - an Altoids tin filled with stuff (primarily paperclips, dental floss, paracetamol, imodium, a USB OTG adapter, a few toothpicks, a screwdriver with several bits) - a power bank with a charging cable for my phone - gum - lockpicks from Southord. I usually don't leave my house without these items, and most of them stay inside my jacket's pockets. Having gauze saved me a few times, because with the tissues, it's enough to make a makeshift dressing if I fall onto some gravel or something. Notepad and pencil cause it's just easier than typing notes on my phone, and if my battery's dead, well, you get the point. My USB drive has Apps from PortableApps.com on it, stuff like lightweight office suites, code editors and troubleshooting tools, as well as a copy of Hiren's Boot CD 15.2. My lockpicks saved me once from a 50 euro locksmith call. Picked my own lock cause I forgot my keys at work. And I don't count the number of times that my leatherman saved my ass.

Here's what I have in my EDC bag (a leather backpack: Duct tape First aid kit 50ft skein of marine rope Spare leatherman Heavy duty work gloves Battery bank (I discharge and recharge it weekly) Spare USB cables (micro and type C) Pay Day bars (a lot)

I've got some cool pogs. Alf pogs! Remember Alf? He's Back! In pog form!

For me, my EDC is my phone, wallet, keys, and a Leatherman. When I'm out on my bike I bring equipment for fixing anything that goes wrong with it. Beyond that I don't carry much unless I'm going somewhere for an overnight or something.

God tier EDC: -Handle of Tito's -Matchbook with only 1 match left -An apple in case you get hungry -Your car keys -An apple to distract a wretched corvid while you flee the scene -Ample amounts of updog -Protector Series 15,000-Watt Liquid Cooled Automatic Standby Diesel Generator -A positive attitude Anyone that doesn't carry these items will surely perish

Emergency blankets have so many uses! I've never actually used one as a blanket

“Why are you advertising this?!!?” “Because Boners are rad.” The words of a wise man, indeed.

Great channel, been here since 100k, happy to see how much it's grown

next vid should be the two of you making custom edc bags

from what I've heard, if someone has a cardiac arrest, their chance of survival if left alone is really low, with just chest compressions its around 20-30% and with rescue breaths as well it goes up to around 60-70%. This is vague from memory of my life guard instructor quoting roughly off the top of their head so please correct me if im wrong?

"Things missing from this: Pocketbook of Pornography..." like the first thing he said was that

I go to the forest with my daycare kids. This seems pretty good, but even we take more first aid things, including disinfectant, bug spray, cremes, a small tarp, etc.

I want to see your rogues E d c What would you guys carry as modern rogues. If you were super cool Brian and Jason could each come up with something and then they could compete in challenges to see whose is better.

I'm poor and don't often leave the house, so my EDC is USUALLY a survival bracelet (paracord and a little knife), power bank and phone charger (and phone), the obvious wallet/keys, a bit of makeup, my vape, a sketchbook and pen, and sometimes a snack (granola bar or something). It all fits in my purse so it's always on me. I should probably buy some emergency stuff for the car.

Was gonna visit HQ last week, drove to Austin from Houston. We had to turn back since we were sliding down FM2244 backwards (Texas Blizzard 2021). Didn't get to make the drive by.

0:50 into the video and they've already shown their ignorance towards the brilliance that is MOLLE. I would expect nothing less.

EDC basic stuff: wallet, phone, pen, keys, multi-tool, small flashlight, pocket knife. Then based on the day or the individual you can add any additional items: personal defense (pepper spray, knife, firearm), marker, jump drive, things that you use regularly.

The glow sticks could be useful for marking your vehicle in large parking areas after dark or marking your emergency escape paths or even rooms that don't have threats, after you've checked them. My every day carry includes a usb battery charger, a pistol with spare magazine, a leather-man multi tool, a zippo ligher, and a fixed blade knife

#1 thing an ALL of them (particularly for you guys) bandaids.

Modern Rogue "3 Pillars" EDCs Gentleman: Lagevulin Scoundrel: Jack Daniels Warrior: Knob Creek

EDC for the modern rogue The rogues revenge hat. The lock proof pen The rogues ring A multi tool of some description (subject to personal preference) A flashlight with USB port for charging external items. A deck of playing cards for entertainment, tricks, misdirection, and making new friends. With these you have covered personal safety, escapes, repairs, tools for when you get lost, and socializing. The rest seems to be more of a personalize to your daily needs kind of thing

I think the modern rogues EDC kit should be split into 3 categories The gentleman - A lighter (You may not smoke but a true gentleman will always offer to light a ladies cigarette, even if he doesn't like smoking) - An umbrella (A gentleman will not allow for himself to show up drenched and with ruined hair, the same as he won't allow that to happen to a beautiful lady) -A monogrammed handkerchief (A classic tool of the gentleman, can be used to dry a ladies tears during a sad play or a sad movie, to cover one's nose when something reeks, or to treat a flesh wound) The scoundrel - Lockpicks (The scoundrel goes where he pleases) - A handcuff escape tool (Maybe going wherever you please isn't the best idea) - A misdirection (No I don't mean a smoke bomb or a flashbang, I mean something that you can use as a cold opener and to keep peoples attention on you, like the watch stealing guys from the last episode "magic" ring, I personally prefer a deck of cards as if you enter the scene with a dynamo shuffle or any other show-offy trick you've got their curiosity, offer to show them a card trick and you've got their intrigue which I find to be a great opener when trying to seduce a beautiful maiden) The warrior - Brass knuckles (I do MMA, trust me, you do not want to punch someone in the face with your bare hand, you'll just end up jacking it up) - A knife (Many rogues may like the balisong for its elegant appearance and flashy nature, however, if I may make a suggestion there's nothing I prefer more than a tactical assisted open karambit strapped to my belt under my shirt or jacket when it comes to self-defense the balisongs flashy open may slow you down and the curved blade on the karambit is more comfortable in both stabbing and slashing once you get used to it Edit: oh yeah belt buckle push daggers are rad, I just don't own one so I forgot to include it in the list) -A gun (Depends on where you live I've personally never carried one but that's only because my country has little to no gun violence) - A teaser (I prefer hand to hand combat for none lethal self-defense but not everyone is good at fighting)

"We're Modern Rogues. We laugh in the face of safety!" What Jason should have said...

Not a single tourniquet in any of those kits. I EDC a North Amrican Rescue Cat-T on a Philster flat pack belt carrier.

So, EDC stands for Every Day Carry, which means that whatever you carry around in your pockets every day IS your “EDC kit”. For most people that is just their phone, wallet, and keys (pocket knives seem to have gone out of style in well populated areas, and where they are found, they are usually met with fear and caution [in my experience]). I personally carry my phone, wallet, keys, a pocket knife, chapstick, a pen, and my earbuds. And a belt. That is my ‘EDC kit’. Also, pockets tend to be a more convenient and subtle way of toting things around than a big belt pouch.

Phone, wallet, keys (with mini leatherman keychain), cigs, lighter, utility (razor) knife, regular pocket knife, notebook, and pen.

I actually always carry bandages and medical stuff with me. I've never ever used it on myself but there have been situations where I could help others with the stuff I carry around.

I'll tell you a use for glow sticks, public bathroom that has a light switch and some jerk thinks it's funny to flick the lights off on a dude in the stall

I made a EDC kit a day or two ago. It has a measuring tape (which I actually use a lot), a paper clip with duct tape, a needle, a set of mini pliers, a house key, 20 US dollars, 2 SD cards with emergency info (instructions if I get stranded in a foreign city), adhesive bandages, a tissue for use as a tissue and as container filler, and a dry erase marker. And all of that is in an Altoids tin.

The big pouch at the beginning is a military pouch. The two straps you showed are part of the Molle system. There is horizontal straps sowed every 2 inches or so to create a matrix of horizontal "loops" behind these two straps. Your tactical vests, backpacks, and as you can see, even some pouches like that big one you have, have these types of webbing around them also. The two vertical straps will weave through your vest's web, then the pouch, then the vest, then the pouch, etc, and is then clipped back at the bottom. This makes for a VERY solid attachment when using quality vests and pouches, and let you customize your vest and backpack with the pouches you want, and where you want them. It's an awesome system. The pouch you have is probably used to carry medical supplies, used by the "Medic" of your squad, or a s huge-ass drop pouch to throw you empty mags in, but I doubt it would be used that way.

Well whenever I've been taught first aid the mouth guard has been highly recommended. No sense in getting yourself ill if it's the work of seconds to avoid it. (of course this was a couple of years ago when mouth to mouth was still being advised)

2:35 "Am I afraid that, here in Texas, I'm going to get emergency cold?" That didn't age well...

one of the things they should have everyday is a personal nurse or doctor, a pack of band-aids, and suit of armor

My take on EDC is more towards the "what if" even if you don't necessarily use it every day you might frequently be in a position to do so. Mini booboo kit for either of your EDC seems like a good call to me! Just think "what do I use every day?" then add "what would be the worst things to need and not have related to my daily environment?" +1 to watching Brian and Jason making their own edc kit for us and maybe a guest to judge.

Spectacles, Testicles, Wallet and Watch :D

So when are we getting a compilation of all the injury's done on this show?

As a chef, I keep my EDC knife bag with knives, kitchen tools, sharpeners and many other tools that I use daily. I also stock it with nail clippers, B-12, Aspirin, Benadryl, Neosporin, basic boo-boo kit band-aids, butterflies for serious cuts, finger-cots/thumbstalls, burn spray, 3 types of medical/sports tape, larger bandages, multitool, magnetic LED flashlight, and more. I use this stuff every day or once a week. I also keep a fully stocked and very personalized and much more substantial 72-hour bag (BOB) in my vehicle. If shit happens, big or even little shit, I've got it covered. I also have that vehicle to just leave or to go buy more.

A full flask of the best bourbon and a multi tool nuff said 👌

When I saw EDC bag I immediately thought of Electric Daisy Carnival

Phone, keys, money, Leatherman, zippo, sunglasses, playing cards, tissues/handkerchief, waterbottle, cigarettes More than average but I've never run into a situation where I regret not bringing something!

For my everyday carry, a always have basic medical supplies, along with a full med kit in my bag, a Lock picking set, a knife, a multi tool, a notepad, a charger, and a few other useful things that I find the need for often.

I have my organizer always in my backpack. One pocket is lighter, torch (olight eos i3e super small and bright), victorinox of my choice, cheap small multitool with pliers. Second pocket is nitryl gloves bandage, sterile gauze, wet pads soaked in alkohol, adhesive tape, condom (it have many uses) and duct tape rolled onto old card (like credit or other). I don't use it every day, but there were many days, when I need to make use of few of those tools. Sometime its in my car, sometimes is phantom on my Advanced Life Support classes in collage :)

9:12 oke, i have performed cpr several times during my job. for the love of god, if you are doing mouth to mouth always (with the only exception being family or friends) use some sort of protection. people could spit blood or vomit, and you don't know what types of diseases or other nasty shit you are at risk from. (i will not give mouth to mouth to a stranger without protection) also the statement on not doing mouth to mouth anymore is fairly understandable, but it is very important that you know when you do have to give mouth to mouth for instance when somebody drowned, or suffocation. the reason is because when you have somebody with say cardiac arrest, their heart is to cause of the problem but their blood still had plenty of oxygen in it, so mouth to mouth is redundant. but with somebody who has drowned or suffocated you need to start with (we were trained 5) mouth to mouth breaths, then 30 (if adult) chest compressions, 2 breathes, 30 compressions etc etc. im sorry if my tone seems a bit angry, English is not my first language. just seemed important to tell people to please use protection when giving mouth to mouth, also use rubber gloves (doctors gloves) when touching (or being at risk of coming in contact with) any victims bodily fluids. guys loved the rest of the video! stay safe guys and have a wonderful day 👍

The name is everyday “carry”, not everyday “use” XD You carry it everyday just in case, you don’t carry your bug out bag. But out bag at home, everyday carry just in case. Edit: also, with that mouth to mouth cover protection thing, Red Cross does say no more breaths, but if you’ve got someone else there to give breaths while your doing compressions, there’s no harm in that.

1. Batteries 2. Flask with attached breathalyzer 3. Flash drive 4. Toothpick/matches or switch-blade lighter 5. Sun glasses 6. Umbrella that doubles as a collapsible baton 7. Black nitrile gloves 8. Club soda, bug spray, sunscreen, musky cologne or vanilla perfume for roguesses 9. Duct tape 10. And, if you have room, a broadsword

I carry a "space blanket" in my photography kit. It can be used for making reflectors and casting shade. Combined with gaff tape and scissors from a Swiss Army knife, it is also handy for fashioning a dress for that time when you were shooting at a waterfall / swimming hole in the woods and some joker ran off with your model's clothing. See, what you pack is dependent on what scenarios you are providing for, which is informed by your past experience -- every time I _wish_ I had something, I add it to the kit.

2:35 well... that aged like milk on a radiator didn't it...

My edc that i carry for work is a drop leg pouch that wraps around my leg and waist. In mine i have a small screwdriver, a phone charger and cords, a custom first aid tin in an altoids tin, pepper spray, mechanic gloves, whistle, nail clippers, a knife, some tylenol , some larger bandages and mylar blanket, and a n95 mask.

I have a backpack I use as my EDC. What I put in my EDC is a pocket knife, portable charger, a small flashlight, a pen and a small notebook, bandage wraps, Band-Aids, some antiseptic, travel sized hand sanitizer, paracord in case I need to make a tourniquet or tie something, a windproof Zippo lighter, and a small umbrella. It weighs about 8 lbs.

"8 hours of brian striking a ferrocerium rod" what else do you think i subscribed for?

Wait, a paracord bracelet that you should always wear is in an EDC bag?" Just wear the damn thing and make room in the bag for something else.

My purse (it's about the size of a piece of paper folded in half) is basically one of these. in it i carry a lighter, knife, sharpie, tweezers, lock pick + tension wrench, spudger, chapstick, advil/benadryl, all access card, deck of cards, bug repellent wipes, nail file, hand sanitizer, pocket can opener, fold up fabric scissors, tide stick, 6 sided die, pocket wrench, a chapstick tube i filled with stick deodorant, pencil sharpener, small ruler, ear buds, wall to usb block, microusb charger, microusb to lightning converter, mini-leatherman keychain, microusb to usbc converter, tape measure keychain, bus tickets, a tiny personal care set (sewing needle with floss, tiny mirror, bobby pins, safety pins, hair bands, barettes, and a paper clip), feminine hygiene products, mini tarot deck (for funzies) AND MOST IMPORTANTLY: KEYS, PHONE, PORTABLE CHARGER, WALLET, TRASH BAG, WHISTLE. and of course a d 20 incase I encounter any dragons.

I have a hip bag/satchel that goes around my waist and thigh. Love the thing. Carry a medical kit, wallet, earbuds, cellphone, etc. I'll even use it for holding snacks or a water bottle (laziness, haha.) I'll use it to hold dog supplies too. Treats, potty bags, etc. I could even fit a handgun in there if I wanted. Definitely reccomend if you aren't embarrassed by one. I think mine looks badass.

I see the lock picking lawyer inspired you guys to judge amazon’s pick

"... This is the kind of beast you'd be showing off to your friends playing Counter Strike." Lmao. Brian, what's you're analogy here? Also do you play?

Awesome exploration into the ideas behind EDC and emergency kits

There are 2 types of edc (as in one containing whatever you need every day, and one for emergencies) your normal edc is what you guys are thinking of. A survivalist edc is designed as a small bug out bag. It is designed to get you from wherever you are when SHTF to your nearest bug out bag, or to get home. Usually it is a small version of a big out bag, but without food, carryable water or large tools/shelter. Basically, it should last you in an emergency for up to 1 day, or however long it takes you to get home. (Hope the explanation helps). My current SEDC has water tablets, a mylar blanket, a knife, a flashlight, a small power bank, mosquito nets, some spices, a multitool, some Paracord and a poncho. I have a separate first aid kit, as I am a highly trained in first aid, and I know how to use a larger lot with several more advanced components.

The point of a EDC is so you can have it if sh*t hits the fan and you do not have time to get your bug out bag

CUZ IM A MODERN ROUUUUUGGGEEEEEE

Interesting video! That was a lot of gear to try to EDC. I keep it pretty slim on what I carry. I have a leatherman, pocketknife flashlight, tactical pen, phone and a pocket first aid kit along with keys and a wallet. All have proven valuable to have on my person throughout the day. Having kids you can't have enough band aids handy! I thought carrying a flashlight all the time was silly but after I did it for a while I realized that I used it a LOT more than I thought would.

How i decided what is in my EDC is i carried around a small notebook and a pen for a year. Every time i said to myself "I wish i had _____", "I could use _____ right now", or if somebody asked me if I had ____, I would write it down or make a hash mark next to it if i already had it down. Anything with 5 or more hashes at the end of a year i add to my backpack.

Emergency cold in Texas? Don't be ridiculous!

brian are you worried now thaT you might get emergency cold in texas?

I have an EDC that I made nearly 1 year ago. I have a lot of things that I might use on a daily basis, such as nail clippers, scissors, tweezers, medication, bandages etc. However, an EDC is more about something you carry every day IN CASE something goes wrong. My family goes camping, target shooting (guns and bows), and we cut trees down in remote areas. If someone got injured (shot, axe to the knee, car accident, etc), bleeding out can occur in

When I took First Aid training ~1 year ago they tought us to do rescue breaths but only if we had the plastic bag. Reason being is you dont know what that person has and that situation could turn into that person dying off and then you dying later down the road due to the illness they gave you. Plus it keeps blood, spit and vomit from going from their mouth to yours. That plastic piece in youre edc bag is pretty useful because it can give someone a higher chance of survival. The compressions will bring in a little bit of air but you can never be sure they are getting enough

Watching this in February 2021 what Brian said at 2:30 definitely aged poorly.

2:36 Oh that didn’t age well

For my roguish self, a small Swiss army style knife has all the general toos I’m going to need in the general day; water bottle and snacks because it’s cheaper to bring stuff from home; my wallet; phone and charger: battery pack; and my knitting bag, which will have my current project and simple knitting tools for that project inside. Pencil and pen, my journal, earplugs, bandaids, and a few pieces of candy.

I think the CPR mouthpiece is a very important piece of equipment. You will not use it a lot but it means the difference between life or death. Also the space blanket can be used to reflect heat from a fire, hold water, make emergency shelter and obviously treat hypothermia. I think those are two very important things in a edc kit or even just to leave in your car. Then a flashlight, multi tool, knife, rope, maby a beanie and gloves, lighter and/ or fire starter and I find a powerbank very usefull
