EDC

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.

I primarily work from home, so EDC is a little different for me.  I keep it pretty simple (and cheap).  Would like to upgrade the pen.  Suggestions?
iPhone 4
Panerai “homage” with tan croc strap
Jfold wallet
Zebra clicker with 0.7mm gel
Car, house keys, leatherman multi
On night walks with the pooch, I will take my sog knife with me JIC.

Editor’s Note: Hey there! Your carry seems to be off to a good start if you prefer simple and cheap. As for your pen situation, you’ve already got one of the best budget pens for EDC. You could look into a very similar pen, the Zebra F-701, which features more stainless steel in its construction. Pilot pens are also a popular alternative (G2, Hi-Tec, etc) and could probably handle home office wear and tear. I personally really like the Uniball Power Tank line too. If you’re willing to splurge, keep your eyes peeled on kickstarter campaigns, there are usually some really nice pens in the works there. Lastly, for your nightly dog walks I’d maybe recommend keeping a flashlight on you as well! Thanks for sharing.
