What's in your bag? / Everyday carry (EDC)

What do you keep on you everyday?
whats in your pockets?

I'm well aware that most of you have a love of tools and well built well designed objects.

I also know that I really want to be able to rely on the tools I carry with me.
i have a few ideas knocking round my head involving some nice brass key chains and tools/knives etc

So I want to see some pictures of what you keep in your pockets.
I'm not talking about iphones,

just awesome things that you keep on you at all times

i guess maybe some 'everything in my pockets' type photos would be good?

I only carry phone wallet keys and earphones everywhere.

Cant believe how many people just carry around knives??? WHY??

Thank god that we don't have any reactionary laws about knives in this country...

I carry a machete.

You know - for whittling.

Ah, makes sense now!

cause knives are super handy. i live on a boat, im often out of the city, a knife makes sense.

Phone keys wallet coins.

Never come across a situation where I needed a knife to be honest, and I live in the deepest darkest countryside.

4 things
hanky
front door key and bike lock key ( on one fob count as 1 item )
swiss army knife ... you never know when a horse might need someone to get something out of it's hooves
wallet

nothing more nothing less
i check these 4 items everytime i leave the house count to 4 then pull my door too

swiss army knife has a screwdriver / corkscrew / bottle opener / can opener and a fingernail scraper ( you know the black gunk that gets under your nails )

I've not looked it up (don't want to google "is it legal to carry a knife" at work) but, what are the laws on carrying a penknife/similar?

i think its anything bigger than a penknife you have to have a good reason to carry..?

blade length is the main issue i believe
any good boy scout will have a pocket knife exactly where it should be

This man talks my language.

Four pocket taps for me.
Wallet
Phone
Keys
Inhaler.

If I meet the necessary criteria for each pocket tap I may proceed.

I often find my self doing it as I ride, just to be doubley sure.

I'm always checking for my keys as I ride...

Normally in my pockets:
pen
notebook
wallet
phone
lip balm
keys
handkerchief
id cards - for emergency use of discounts
phone

today's bonus: stethoscope (never in same pocket as snot rag)

And knives make the most sense: you're out and about, peckish, go looking for cheese, then you see the price of pre sliced cheese etc, with a knife you can buy block o' cheese, bread and fruit and have a relatively cheap and delightful meal and scorn at the fools with their premade sandwiches. Also opening wine, to go with your delightful snack.

Never understood the whole knife carrying thing, really don't see the point - but each to their own I guess.

If we're talking about ALL times when out of the house I only really have wallet, oyster card, phone & keys. If I'm on my bike I'll always have my bag with me so that's where all my tools/pump/random crap gets stored.

hehe

full house of 31t products

and the log in my backpack

Wallet
Phone
Keys
Bike lock around waist
Small bike toolkit/correct spare tube-either in pack or fitted into jersey pockets.

Phone, wallet, keys, oystercard. Occasionally chewing-gum/sunglasses/plectrum, as the situation dictates.
Boring!
