One thing I find indispensable is a small folding knife. In fact I carry two - one for personal grooming ( the tiny Victorinox) and a small Case folder for opening packages.
Happy Birthday, Ash! Yet again an excellent useful video! 👍
Always enjoy the videos Ash. Great stuff. Keep them coming!
John Molloy’s book was the bible for the basics. I also had Alan Flusser’s Style and the Man. Nothing close to being a dandy with those guys. Straight advice for corporate situations, exactly what I lacked. 40 years later, it is hard to remember how little info men had on the fundamentals. My “college” was a service academy (US version of Dartmouth) and then six years as a naval officer. I knew corporations had their “uniform” and needed help to understand it.
Thank you for sharing. Love to watch peoples everyday carry.
A handkerchief?!?! Sorry Ash, this gives away the fact you were a Brylcream Boy!! Ha ha! God bless ya!
Good to know that proper chapdom isn‘t dying! 👍 Keep up the good work and please, give us the guide to colours and their combinations :D
Ash, I am almost certain you are wearing that Kangol cap the wrong way round !
Not in my universe!!
Happy Birthday and all the best wishes! Another great video in your channel, really enjoyed watching your EDC update! Best regards and have a great weekend!
Hi Ash. Your costing me money.. I bought the Entourage 7 vintage amber sunglasses and LOVE them. Also bought the Pilot metropolitan pen. Love your channel, keep it going!! Stay Chap, Mark in Knoxville Tennessee USA
Oh and many happy returns of the day!
Smashed it Chap!
Missed the birthday Ash. Good health and long life to you. Really enjoying the content
That was another very interesting video, Ash. In terms of other or alternative items for your EDC, I’d suggest that you consider a Davek Solo umbrella at some stage. They really are the Rolls Royce of umbrellas, and are amazingly sturdy in the worst of weathers.
Hello Ash,
I’m heavily into the EDC game myself. I like to match my EDC items and I got different items in a rotation. Like my watches, pens, wallets and so on. A very important item for me personally is a gentleman’s pocketknife. I carry pocketknives since I was twelve years old as an EDC item. And for a couple of years now I’m collecting mostly small and compact gentleman’s pocketknives. To carry a cutting tool is quite handy and I used my knives a few times every day. Opening letters, cutting boxes or some fruits. There are so many tasks a blade can do.
Best regards,
Claus
I agree and do carry a knife, but for contractual reasons linked to my employment, I am unable to be associated with knives in my videos.
@@TheChapsGuideAre You serious 😂😂😂 political correct, woke and not very manly. Christ, how times has changed.
Simply the best, thank you sir!
Glad you liked it!
The moment I saw the turquoise notebook, I was like, ah! Thats a Montblanc 😄Coincidentally, Montblanc paper is made for fountain pen ink, so you hit the jack pot. Anyways, fun video!
Great video Ash. Would agree with others here. Clasp knife would be paramount. NCIS TV shoe Gibb's rule#9 never go anywhere without a knife. Cheers Ron
I do carry a pocket knife, but unfortunately my employer has asked that I am not seen promoting the carrying of knives in my YT channel. Ridiculous I know, especially as my EDC knife is a small Swiss Army model which is 100% legal in every aspect, but while I remain in my present employ, I must observe their request.
Happy belated Birthday Ash!
Many thanks
My goto pens for the last 15 years, a Kaweco ball point pen and a Sheaffer Imperial IV Touchdown Fountain Pen (Easily over 20 years). I'm glad you are getting the message out regarding Kaweco, I have a steel, gun mental grey version, a great product.
Great video, as always Ash. These may be a bit too American, but I think that for your military look, a pair of Randolph Aviators as an alternative sunglasses choice, would be great. I got a pair recently from a pilot shop here in the UK and am seriously impressed with them.
I'll look them up, they sound intriguing.
Happy Birthday!
I like the sunglasses. Here in Australia good sunglasses are a must and I have multiples of them. My current for good wear are Ray Ban Clubmaster Black marble polarised, a modern version of the classic Clubmaster. I'm a new subscriber and enjoying the channel. Cheers.
Very nice video... All the best!
I’m 52 in may myself , love your channel, weird I have an iPhone 12 in blue aswell , I also use reuzel shaving products that I see you recently bought 👌
Reuzel is awesome - review video on it coming soon!!
Nice video!
13:07 Well it might be a bit late but happy birthday !
Thank you.
Thanks!
Thank you sir
👍I agree inirely
Good video (and Happy Birthday). The thing in my everyday carry that is a real nuisance is the key ring. It doesn’t sit well in a trouser pocket and gets in the way wherever I put it. Ok so I have house keys, car key and keys for the allotment gates on mine, plus the Baby Swiss Army knife, so it’s in no way minimalist, but even when it’s just the two house keys it’s a pain. Any tips for getting round this? Hiring a servant to open the door whenever I return home is sadly beyond my finances!
I find I tend to use my car to travel to most locations, so I keep most of my required keys in the car and then I only have to carry the car key around with me. Cuts down on pocket litter and keeps the slacks looking sleek.
Buon compleanno !
Maybe sometime you could do a video on gentleman’s signet rings. How and way men of style wear them. Stay safe.
I would consider adding a little folding knive, like a Laguiole, or a Victorinox to your EDC. Cheers Oni

Same here - although I have recently started to carry a Leatherman, mainly because it was a gift from my wife, but with the advantage that it has no blade.
Happy Birthday Ash I bought those gloves, upon your recommendation and they exceeded my expectations - thank you What on earth did you call your holdall bag?
It's a valise - www.dictionary.com/browse/valise
Love an EDC video. But the British ones always seem a little tame compared to the Americans.
Happy birthday my man! Have you ever thought about including a pocket knife in your EDC?

Great video w/ excellent content!
Thank you!!
Please let us know what jacket you are wearing in this video.
Its a nylon bomber jacket from Gap, probably about 7-years old now. Under £50 when purchased, great bargain.
I suggest giving some thought to the Bullet by Fisher Space Pen for your second writing instrument. I have carried one in my front left pocket for the past 15 years or so.
Many thanks, I will check that pen out.
Goodmorning Ash. I really enjoy EDC videos. I’m also very specific in the things I carry everyday. The last time you did an EDC update you showed a pocket knife. Do you still carry the Pioneer Solo, or something else, or have abandoned the pocket knife entirely?
I still carry a pocket knife, but unfortunately my employer has asked that I am not seen promoting the carrying of knives in my YT channel.

@@TheChapsGuide Seems reasonable, I guess. Thanks for clearing that up. Have a nice day Ash.
Love EDC videos great stuff Ash .. you might need a knife though

@@TheChapsGuide Totally agree Ash it might seem ridiculous but at the end of the day its them that pays the bills
Although I carry more stuff than I used to (no glasses yet at 59), I don't think I need to carry a hold all yet. I was thinking of a small men's leather satchel type bag. I'm not sure if this would be a bit hipster for the Chap look and wouldn't want to deform a jacket. Has anyone out there taken this route?
Another interesting video. My edc is similar but a lot less expensive. Maybe you could do a 'budget' version for those of us who are fiscally challenged! (sorry to be pedantic but Moleskine is pronounced 'moll-e-skeen-a'.) keep up the good work.
Depends on whether you want to pronounce the word in English or French or Italian.
Hi Ash. Hope you had a great birthday. Can I please ask what you use to treat your leather weekend bag? Kr
I have used Renpur leather balsam for many years, works a treat on my bags, gloves and other leather items, cheap too: amzn.to/3vCQ5qE
@@TheChapsGuide thank you, sir
Howdy from a first time viewer in Texas. I really enjoyed your information and presentation. I know things are different all over the world and people in different parts carry different things. Sometimes because of needs and sometimes because of laws. Do you ever (are you allowed to) carry a pocket knife, small multi tool or just small tools (like a screwdriver and small pliers) with you or in your bag? What about a small flashlight? I prefer a small USB rechargeable, but also keep a little larger & brighter battery powered one in my bag.
Hi there, I love Texas and have visited many, many times over the years. I do carry a pocket knife, but unfortunately my employer has asked that I am not seen promoting the carrying of knives in my YT channel. Ridiculous I know, especially as my EDC knife is a small Swiss Army model which is 100% legal in every aspect, but while I remain in my present employ, I must observe their request. Great idea about the torch, I generally make use of the torch on my iPhone when needed.
@@TheChapsGuide thanks for the reply. Just curious, do you work in a job where you can’t carry a knife to work or does your employer just not see knives as tools and doesn’t want to be connected with them? My grandfather taught me that every gentleman should carry a “pen knife” as he called it. Later I switch to a smaller SAK to have the access to a screwdriver and awl. I’m enjoying your channel. Be safe.
@@k2daizzzo My employer (a UK law enforcement agency) has asked me to defer from being seen in these videos as owning & carrying a knife. I personally disagree with this viewpoint, as I carry a small Swiss Army knife that is very much legal, but I am observing my employer's wishes.
@@TheChapsGuide thank you for explaining. I understand your viewpoint and respect your decision to comply with your employer’s wishes (even if you are carrying something that falls within the law of your land). Keep up the great Vlogs. Be Safe!
you should do a vid on cars. honestly, I think BMW, Audi or Mercedes are the way to go for a dapper gentleman. you don't want something kiddy like a hot hatch or a little hatchback. estates are ugly. coupe or saloon is the way to go. Audi S5 here.

@@corporatemcmahon2815 what about distinguished and dapper but not arrogant
Ash, I think you can find the history of your Kaweco pen rather interesting. It was invented before the Great War (WWI) for German military personnel. Most of the pens were confiscated in 1917 because they were made of brass, needed for shells, so they are pretty rare. The contemporary ones are almost the exact copies of the original, the differences are minor.
Greetings from Poland!
I love that brass model, a bit expensive, but hopefully one day soon. Hopefully it will be in next year's EDC.
Small torch, very useful. Don't carry a knife in the UK.
I would appreciate your opinion about a 75 year old man carrying a sling bag for daily use.🤔
I would say that it depends on your habitual style. If you favour streetwear and millennial clothing it would be an appropriate option. If you dress in a more traditional manner, perhaps a casual briefcase or leather valise would offer a more age appropriate route. But remember, there are no wrong answers - wear what you like and what fits with your own life circumstances.
@@TheChapsGuide Thank you for your reply.
But where is your pocket knife...legal carry of course Ash 🙂
No pocket knife??
What about a multitool?
Multitools are a problem in the UK for law abiding citizens.
@@jamesbailand4311 How sad.
@@leonardgoffe7159 it's much worse than that.
Baseball caps, unless you’re playing baseball, are deplorable.
Hi Ash, That bag seems to be the male equivalent of a woman’s handbag, but no woman would carry a bag that large and heavy around with her everyday.
Women carry bags which are generally unobtrusive, yet are attractive accessories. It must be very tiring carrying that much weight around everyday, also would it not give rise to comment to carry a bag that large? I would guess you probably leave the bag in your car, and don’t actually carry it around.
All that clobber is your every day carry? I find that hard to believe.
Don't you carry a PURSE for money and change? I only see a small wallet.
Money and change?...... We are living in a cashless society dear sir. I haven't had the need for coins for about 2-years and I think I have the same currency notes in my wallet from 12-months ago, hence the ability to move to a nice, trim wallet.
@@TheChapsGuideBoomer wanna sound edgy and cool in TikTok times. You, fine Sir, forget that you become a slave, once you dive into „the cashless society“! Government can control you. You are not free and traceable. Cash is the true money. No energy, no internet or devices. Cash is freedom! Never forget that!
