Frequently Recommended Gear
RULES Please use the 'Report' feature for any post/comment you feel is in violation of the below rules.
1.) Post a list of your items
When posting pictures of your EDC, please provide a list of items in the comments within one hour of posting; otherwise, your post will be removed.
2.) No Spam
We consider spam to be posts/comments that try to take advantage of the subreddit, automated or otherwise.
This includes, but is not limited to:
Advertising your own products/company/social media
Shilling for a third party/Thinly veiled advertising such as "Hope I can get this into other people's hands" or " Items I produce"
Affiliate/referral links
You can include items that you make/sell in EDC posts, so long as it includes other items.
The one and only exception to this rule is special deals offered to the members of this sub. Before posting such deals please message the Mod team.
3.) No Incivility
Comments/posts that include name calling, insults, mocking, condescension, gatekeeping, or any other form of incivility towards users or items will be removed. Criticism of an item itself is allowed, but keep it civil.
4.) No Politics
Discussion regarding any political party/ideology/group, even those you agree with, will not be tolerated. Do not debate the politics of a country/state/city, user or of an item they choose to EDC. Posts are allowed to contain political imagery (stickers, flags, patches, etc.) so long as they aren’t the primary focus of the post, and don’t violate Reddit TOS.
5.) No Inappropriate Content
Inappropriate content is content that doesn’t fit the theme of the subreddit. This includes, but is not limited to: content unrelated to EDC, news articles, nudity, and injuries/gore.
6.) No Videos
Video posts are not allowed. They are difficult/time consuming to moderate and often contain advertising.
7.) No Memes
No memes, petitions, screenshots, or clickbait. Satirical EDCs are allowed, so long as it follows the traditional EDC post format.
8.) Meet Minimum Posting Requirements
In order to post or comment, an account must be at least 48 hours old and have a minimum of 50 Karma. This is to prevent spam. Please do not message the mods asking for your post to be approved. Be patient and repost/comment once your account has met these requirements.
9.) Do not ask why someone carries a knife or a gun
Please read the FAQ before asking why someone carries a knife or a gun. These questions are often asked dishonestly, and this rule exists to discourage political debate stemming from loaded questions.
10) Do not give unasked for advice regarding firearms or knives, or ask why they aren't carried.
Do not give unasked for advice regarding purchasing or carrying firearms or knives.
Do not ask users why they don't carry.
Both of these actions are the flip side of not asking why they are carried. Doing so serves no good purpose and pushes users who choose not to carry such items into justifying their choice, or explaining the fact that laws are not the same everywhere.

Pocket organizer for money, cards, knife and pen
I am looking for a small pocket organizer that can hold money, cards, a small knife and a small pen suitable for office wear. This way I can keep my phone in my other pocket. Do you have any recommendations of such pocket organizers? I am losing expensive pens and the pocket knife also easily slips out.

Do you guys have different sets of keys?
I'm having quite a large key chains connected with different key chains.
I started to seperate them for different occasions. One has a bottle opener with friends.
Another has an sd holder when studying and need to seperate my devices, and it comes with a flashlight as I tend to study late at night.
I'm considering having another one in case I'm doing maintenance / diy work where it'll have a mini pocket knife and a more advanced flashlight (one that has UV) and magnifying glass.
Was wondering if someone does a thing like that? As I find no EDC works the same and each one has a different purpose.

How to carry a notebook better?
Hey r/edc I've been carrying a pocket notebook with me for a little over 2 years now. I usually wear jeans and put it in my right front pocket along with whatever pen I'm testing at the time (currently a uniball signo). The problem for me is if I'm ever carrying anything else like my phone or my earphones or some candy in that pocket it makes it a pain to pull out my notebook when I need it. Not to mention my notebooks end up pretty beat up if they aren't hardcovers especially if I ever get caught in the rain with no umbrella
