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.

Hey Bernard, I am addicted to your site… thought I might throw my humble EDC into the mix. I don’t like to carry a ton of stuff, but I refuse to skimp on the knife or the flashlight. The gear is as follows (from left to right):
Big Skinny Wallet
Cummins Keychain (housekeys and truck keys)
Quark AA2 Tactical Flashlight
Palm Pre
Mcusta Tactility (Damascus / VG10 Blade, Quincewood Handle)
Carrera SunglassesAlso, I always EDC a bandana.
Editor’s Note: Was I the only one who read “I always EDC a banana” at first? Hey Dan, thanks for the support and frequent participation in discussions on the site. Sleek and effective carry as expected — slimmed down keys and wallet, a light with long runtime, and a beautiful knife. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.
