    Thanks for these great ideas, but sadly, you don't explain how you get the WD40 into that tiny plastic section of bag - not here, nor in the protect & seal video you mention. So my question is: How do you prevent the WD40 from getting all over your machine and anywhere else it wants to travel?

    i can barely find any batteries to buy where i live, i do have chargers usb power and even solar pannels with usb chargers in it. you can buy the rovivon one that has both if you actually want to have battery power, but i dont see the point. Also letherman is inferior to the victorinox. its too large and not enough functions to be worth it. and its flat bits f up everything. Also if you have a were bit kit inside, and you have almost everything you need! Put in a nextool multitool that has a wrench and knife and scisors and you dont need a lot more. best tools are made in Germany and switzerland! Oh also letherman moved production from the us for most of its products btw.

    You're closing your leatherman wrong, you may even damage the scissors if you applied force that way. The scissors are supposed to go in in open position, so no part of it will stick out and the tool will close flush. It'll also fit the elastic loop a little better.

    If you are going to include a water kit, sawyer mini rated for 100,000 gallons, it would easily fit in there. Klien electricians shears, see maxlvledc video testing all kinds of edc scissors. I use a Bibury “wave clone” in conjunction with Knipex pliers, the clone uses a standard bit driver, massive advantage over proprietary and weak leatherman bits.

    Feet. Looks like some of your items consider travel and meals on the move. I would recommend underwear, socks, foot powder, and maybe chafe powder. Kit looks great. Sanitation is important. Add lightweight layered shelter to that and it would be close to perfect for me, maybe not you I don’t know

    Advil/Ibuprofen also comes in tough tubes the size and shape of Chapstick tubes. The tubes will hold many pills, and you can carry a mix of 2 or 3 pills in one tube: ibuprofen, baby aspirin, Benadryl, anti-diarrheal, etc. Those tubes are also good for carrying earplugs. A length of hot glue stick is a compact , handy thing. The Bic can melt the glue. Cell phones die. I think it smart to include one laminated list of important phone numbers (personal, police, fire, sheriff, AAA, wrecker, cab,..., addresses, etc}. I'd seal the leak-prone epoxy glue in a foodsaver bag.

    Due to the varied number of replies, I thought I should mention something in additional to what I had posted in previous months. What one Every Day Carries depends on several factors. 1) Where one is located, and where one is traveling to. 2) The skill set of the individual. What I mean is that each of us have certain skills and backgrounds that influence what we bring with us. The more of a Jack of all Trades type of person, equates to more items that we may have to repair, modify, build, and create. A person that is familiar with sewing may have a leather needle, and a nylon thread, an Engineer may have with them a multimeter & jumper cables, an EMT may have a medical field kit. 3) Sometimes we may not be familiar with certain medical kits, but that doesn't mean not to bring certain medical items with you, as chances are if you are indeed injured, although you may not know how to use a torniquet, someone that stops to help you may know how to use it. 4) Some novelty outdoor & EDC gear may look really cool, or fancy, but as with all tools and gears, other than SAKs (Swiss Army Knives) & Leatherman tools, a lot of these novelty items are kind of crappy, and one is better of using a dedicated tool specifically designed for the job. 5) Last, just because you have a piece of gear with you doesn't mean you are good to go. Knowing how to use your gear, and knowing your gear inside and out is the key. Always try out your gear at home and never try it out for the 1st time in an emergency, or out in the wild.

    Something light but very useful you could add would be a usb and an otg cable so you can access the usb from your phone. You can have plenty of useful pdf books like how to guides plus wikipedia and entertainment like podcasts, non-fiction books, videos and music. It will also allow you to keep another copy of your Important documents and family pictures. You can share the data with others or simply enjoy it yourself. It could be a big boost in moral and mental health as well as resources.

    Hello listening and read the comments from others. I will consider what you said from all 3 videos. It’s a balancing act with these( weight, bulk, capability and functionality) I get 2 is one rule but I try to have redundancies that cover many areas and situations. Like the water in part one, I have water to start, metal container and filter. In case of fire got water to go. Raining I’ll catch and store it. Filter for other stuff. Take CaRe ❤
