Everyday Carry, or EDC, generally refers to small items or gadgets worn, carried, or made available in pockets, holsters, or bags on a daily basis to manage common tasks or for use in unexpected situations or emergencies. In a broader sense, it is a lifestyle, discipline, or philosophy of preparedness.

Anonymous asked: What do you guys find is more practical in an EDC folding knife? A straight blade or a blade that's straight and serrated?
I'm looking to purchase a folder and can't really make up my mind.
I would personally take plain edge over combo edge. I might be wrong about this but I think plain edge provides cleaner cuts and is easier to sharpen. They are also more sheeple-friendly. I think serrations are better for heavy duty cutting, but even then you would probably want a fully serrated knife.
I’m not a knife expert or anything but that’s just from my experience. Hopefully people can chime in via disqus with their opinions.
