EDC - Every Day Carry

[graybeard]

(NCIS reference) Gibbs' Rule #9: Never go anywhere without a knife.

Mine is usuallya Gerber 4.5" folder.

Other stuff: keys, wallet, cell phone, pen.

[sharps_74]

Aside from the usual stuff (Money, keys and my billfold) I carry my spare eyes, cellphone, loupe, Swiss Army Knife, spare magazine and my SIGPRO in .357SIG. I may also carry my Palm Pilot.

I've added a Stanley "SportUtility Outdoorsman" knife... It's not the highest quality thing out there - not by a long shot - but it's a big bladed folder (3 1/4") combined with a standard, "boxcutter" utility knife.

It's definitely a cheap knife, but it's also one that I'm not afraid to abuse. And the cheap main blade lasts a lot longer because the disposable utility blades do most of the grunt work.

Pretty minimal junk here....having pockets full of misc. crap really annoys me.
My list is:
Keys
Wallet
Knife
Glock 29SF

[Krew400]

Keys, wallet, 2 cell phones(work and personal), iTouch, Lighter, knife, and pen.

[RiponredTJ]

Keys, cash and ID.
Everything else is in my Jeep.

Can you not route one to the other? My Dad does that for his work and personal.

He's never sure who's calling, he just answer it with his work spiel.

There are many reasons why you (or your company) might not want that. Accounting, for one - do you want to pay for work calls/does your employer want to pay for personal calls?

Privacy - does your employer need to know the phone numbers of all your friends and family?

Legality - do-not-call lists apply only to private numbers, not business phones.

I handle it all with one phone as well, by forwarding everything through Google Voice, then having Google ring me. But there are many reasons why one might want multiple phones.

I think my Dad's case is very different from yours. He's now a Funeral Director for a home in Georgetown where he works with a friend of his. His employer pays for his phones, since he does route them to him, he's one of the 3 people that answer calls, and you'd be surprised how many people call at 3 am trying to discuss a bill.
