Congrats, Jonathan! The number I randomly picked was 102. You had the closest guess! Private message me on Discord and I'll get the magnetic quick release in the mail to you. 🤘
Best Damn EDC 102
Best Damn EDC
That's really nice of you.
Hey Jonathan. I was going through my notes and realized I never send this out. I recall getting a message from you on Discord while I was on vacation, but I can't seem to find it now. Could you DM me again?
Dude! 103 is what I was going to say! It’s the combo to my little pad lock on my work bag. Oh crap...oops
Him: I'm ready for anything at anytime.
Pollen: Oh really.
😂 Too real
@@BestDamnEDC Your not ready for the Spanish Inquisition!
I carry the WE pry tool, simple and awesome.
“No officer, the pills in the hidden compartment are just allergy medicine... and that large bag of pills is just mints. I swear!”
😂
Thumbs up if you want to see an EDC updated once his baby is born!
Tactical Diaper dispenser
Clip on Baby wipes
Pacifier with lanyard
Quick draw sun shade
Etc.
It’s funny you mention this bc there’s actually a company called tactical dad gear. They make tactical dad bags like backpacks that have a fold down changing station, diaper pouches, wipe pockets etc.
I own that Zak tool key holder in the beginning. That thing is almost perfect. Cons are the belt loop is made for a duty belt and slides around and causes you to do a quick search when re inserting keys. Also lifts up as you pull the keys out.
8:50 *LOL.* I can appreciate your honesty. Thanks for sharing.
For hanging keys, nothing beats a d clip carabiner with a nylon strap.
I needed some type of key organizer, just got tired of having them dangling on an o ring. It's only three keys but I still wanted a way to keep them together. I found a leather Northwall key organizer on Amazon for $25. What's cool is that it comes with a small steel prybar that has a sharpened corner to open boxes. I keep an olight i3eeos flashlight and my house alarm fob attached with individual o rings. I keep my car fob separately from my house keys. This edc stuff is addicting.
I got a leather Hitch and Timber pocket pal with three pockets that I keep a Lumintop flashlight, Victorinox pioneer, Gerber dime, and a small pen. Fits nicely into the cargo pocket of my tactical shorts.
And here I am carrying my EDC in my pockets like some sort of savage who still has three hundred bucks in his pocket
Hahaha
Happy Birthday Taylor, here is to another awesome year! My guess is 967. Good luck all!
Tayler ive been watching your stuff for aaages (I was a subscriber of Mod in a box) and its so dope to see that you're still doing this man. Also 221
Duuuude. Your stuff is so good. I was talking with one of my friends who's a film photographer and I told him to check out your channel and he said, "I watch that dude's stuff all the time!" Grats on 31k subscribers, man!
Best Damn EDC that’s too cool man! Really appreciate it ❤️
"Failed business", little baggies? He was a drug dealer
See I’m a minimalist when it comes to me carrying stuff. I try to go as small as possible in not carrying as much. I do utilize the keysmart but I’m actually adding tools into it so I don’t have as much added to my pockets when I’m walking around. The stuff you’ve put on your keys has given me some ideas of what to go for and how to clip everything together.
Subscribed for video quality, interesting content, knowledgable and genuine stuff 👍 keep it up!
Dude dont sub for the quality sub for the gear
If your looking for a good belt loop for your keys I recommend Victorinox . I use mine for a custom SAK. It's like $15 and locks on to your belt with a simple mechanism.
Exactly!
I use the yellow birch case like you do. But I add a mini multi tool to the zipper compartment and a spare battery for my flash light and some bandaids.
Used to cry over getting scuff marks on stuff, until I decided they are there to tell a story, they are visual memories. When the baby has come (congrats!) and all is well you can look at that scratch and just be reminded that life is fragile and that there's plenty to be thankful for..!
Sorry for a little odd and philosophic comment, it's late and the mind is spinning on it's own..
Thanks for featuring us, Taylor! Glad you are still getting value out of our products. -Aaron
Thousands of those little bags from a failed business😂😂 doesnt sound suspicious at all🤷♀️
Edit: The name of the phone case pattern is "fake goyard"
Brooo I used to watch you back when you were at MOD then i lost track of you. Nice to find you again! Definitely staying around here.
Love my tactile turn fountain pen, got it at blade show. First thing I bought was a pen and not a knife lol.
I'm new to all this, but I'm seriously curious. What do people use pry bars to pry? Bottle openers? Are there any bottled drinks that don't have twist tops? I feel like these are similar to the SOS function on flashlights that NO ONE USES. Please forgive my ignorance, but what are these for?
I love the craftsmanship on this stuff. So well made. Seems like there'd be more useful things they could do.
Just little widgets that serve no particular purpose other than to drain a wallet in exchange for a slice of titanium.
Pry bars are for all the things multi tool flat screwdrivers are used for that don't involve screws, while over here (Northern Ireland) most bottled beers need a bottle opener.
Chris McCollum mini prybars are great for popping panels, scraping stickers off, cutting tape on boxes without worry of damaging contents. And most craft beers as well as higher quality mass produced beers don’t use twist off because twist of doesn’t seal as well to keep air out.
Opening boxes, can use the prong as a makeshift screwdriver, opening paint cans. It really depends on what you find yourself doing regularly, whether it be your job or hobby.
I’ve never had a use for a mini pry bar, though I do keep a larger one in the suv for potential roadside emergencies, prying doors open etc. (I’m a trauma nurse).
Plenty of smaller craft beer and import beers still use caps that need an opener.
EDC needs to be individualized otherwise you’re carrying useless junk. EDC also goes through trends and fads though. For the longest time everyone wanted Atwood titanium “multitools” which where about 2” long and over $100 lol
Don't listen to people if they don't even know what a tool is used for. A prybar is considered better than your blade for prying. Yes you can use it to open bottles, but it's more for things like nails, staples, paint or other can tops, scraping off adhesives, etc. Basically anything you'd rather not break your blade off doing. Some people actually use their tools.
358? But happy birthday brother! Keep cranking them out
Very nice eye candy presentation you have an impressive modern Gentlemen’s equipment collection. A bit out of my price range but a very enjoyable video 👍
I drive an Older Toyota Tacoma also (2015), I swapped out my key for a Volkswagen all in one off of a guy on the Tacomaworld forum. Simple reprogram on the truck and got my keys cut at a locksmith. I highly recommend it
looked more into it and these keys are everywhere Amazon/Ebay... your looking for a gq43vt20t flip key . then look up the programming instructions and Bamo smaller keys
Happy birthday
And congratulations on the channels growing success!!!
Number 181
We should just start calling it EODC (every other day carry )
lol so true.
There are leather cases now for the FOB. Most have a flip over Velcro keeper. Some also have a key pouch all in one.
More bulk. But less hassle of damage.
Great Video thanks for the EDC update....
My guess for the quick release is 367. Would appreciate it alot.
That's a lot of copper! Also copper prybar/flathead screwdriver? I dunno.......
Copper and screwdriver shouldn't be in the same sentence
been looking for a BAK for awhile... literally just got materials to make my own brass one, but ill just support the kickstarter because that looks slick!!!
Pocket knife, keys, wallet, multi-tool that fits inside the wallet, gshock gd400 watch, pen sunglasses and hat that's all I carry, everything else in a pacsafe ls350 15L backpack
I'm still waiting on the lanyard/beads video. I am genuinely curious, but I just don't get it. I guess I'm looking for some pros, besides looks. Seems like it would get in the way.
The only use I have known them for are for counting paces.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pace_count_beads check this out maybe it will help
The beads are for pretty boys. Not for guys that actually use a knife everyday.
I have a lanyard on my sak (vic. pioneer). In my case, It is useful i three ways. 1-When i have it in my pocket, the knife itself falls onto the bottom, but the bulky knot on the top of the lanyard (yes, it could be a bead) stays on top of the pocket. That way i don't have to tuck my hand in the pocket but I can fish it in a second with just the tip of my fingers, even while I'm holding something. 2-When i'm using it, sometimes I put the lanyard around my little finger so when I need to use my right hand I can simply drop it and it hangs. Gotta be careful, though. Just for light tasks! 3- Sometimes I don't want it on my pocket but the "standard" ring in Victorinox saks is too small to fit in my keyring carabiner, so I use the lanyard. I could live without it, but it's pretty useful to be honest!
They're great for quicker access, getting a grip, extending finger purchase, fidgeting, and of course some people like them for looks and customizing a piece as their own. But it's a matter of preference and some tools just don't lend themselves to lanyards or beads.
8:50 I wonder what kind of business that was ;P
How have I never seen your channel before? Subscribed.
Happy Birthday. Great Content. My pick is 123. Thanks
First of all, happy birthday, Taylor! Best wishes!
My guess is 738
Hey man great content as always happy birthday. 415
Been a fan since you brought this back. Keep up the good work. 642.
Wow just found this channel LOVE THIS STUFF ,
I don’t think you need any of this stuff at a festival just bring some molly
Cookies Tv 😂
FR
Do you mean molle
@@yangemma3928 ya bring that ,I'll bring Molly&her sweet friend lol.
Ppl are always like "oh Dominic always has a multi tool handy" kinda being snarky about it like it's weird to be a little more useful of a person.
I get the same reaction for having 2 or 3 flashlights on me at any given time. I'm everyone's friend when the power goes out though.
What makes fenix flashlights so good are the the lenses that they use. They throw the light in a longer more focused way. 8 lumens out of a fenix e-12 is like any other flashlights medium setting. Plus the lens is so thick, it will never crack.
I'm a knife guy adding a few bits and bobs; your videos are appreciated - Thanks. Love my Sebenza. Taking your advice to get a bolt-action pen. Cheers and take care from down under. (Moose Jaw boy living on the Gold Coast)
Love your videos. Functional note: set the item down and give me a chance to actually see what your showing. You were waving the wallets around really fast and I never got more than a blur of a view.
"It just wants to be used"
That's what she said
If your having a problem with your key belt connector try Buckle-Down for me it’s fast comfortable and it’s rugged
Nice Vid Bro. Cool stuff
I am all for a cool usable wallet, but dang some of these things are pricey. 140 for a wallet?
128
"from a failed business from a few years ago"?
Drug dealer? 😂
it was a monthly subscription box service with diy projects in it. The bags were used for the small parts that went into the projects.
I am new to this channel and like what I see. I saw a lot of stuff you talked about that I would love to use.
Nice food for thought sir
$100 for an old pen design I can make with $5 worth of material and 45 minutes? Highway robbery lmao
Hell yeah when you starting up your business to sell them?
I wonder what that failed business was 🤫🤫
Obviously dollar store
clone doctor or a button store
It's interesting, I see how you edit your video, based on the subscriber counter on the barrel. Great video!
Dude your channel rocks !!!!
A sim card removal tool AND a package of pills? Strange ಠ_ಠ
Paul Stolle haha
Sim card removal tool ?For your burner phone from your failed business that your still working as a side hustle!lol
Dude, great stuff.
I have the magnetic quick release, but my findings are a bit double. At one side it is an awesome invention, on the other hand, the magnetic part also grabs other metal parts which results in having to ungrab it first before I can re-attach my keys to it, which is a bit annoying.
Failed business that used little baggies lmao
How many tooth picks can one use?
Jesus. That's a month worth of tooth picks you carry every day.
1st happy birthday brotha. 2nd my guess is 500. 3rd I had the same key issue with an old Ford i bought a flip key off Ebay for a Jetta or any vw bought a Ford key blank for the flipper control and bam 1 compact key
Another tip on your zulu cut off the secondary loop and strap portion it will make it a true zulu one piece but more importantly it slims the profile so it will fit better
Hey Taylor, love the channel, how about reviewing some torch lighters compatible with EDC?
you guys carry alot of stuff. i got a phone, and if i bother to lock my door i have a key...
happy birthday man!
I use a Rhinoshield Solidsuit for my Galaxy S9, I freaking love it, it's super slim and protects my phone better than any other case I've had
Does it have port covers for the charging and auxiliary port? Also have an s9
227,happy birthday. You the man
Taylor, you need to try the trayvax link as a solution to your keys. It's an awesome tool. Happy Belated Birthday.
Love your shows keep it up 👆
Amazing vídeo bro. Congrats
Just found your channel. I used to live in Kannapolis. I saw you had Concord listed which is pretty cool!
898
Happy birthday Taylor! Let's try 541. Thanks.
I don't know if anyone mentioned this, (there's 2k comments on this video at the time of this post and I'm not going through all of those) but you can order a key with a built-in remote online and just have a key cutter cut it to size... To help alleviate the key ring clutter.
487 is my #. Thx for the vid!
Hey you will probably never see this, but I had the same issue with my maker knife and I sent Giaco an email and apparently its a common issue they had with the little adjusting screws for the tension. They sent me out a new little screw and new screws for the pocket clip as well because some of those didnt fit correct either.
eBay or amazon sells Toyota keys with the fob in the key. Easy to program and most places will cut the key for free
Love the vids bro keep it up 777
Years ago I was a pothead and liked to carry foldable scissors on my keys. Now I use them to cut the straws at places like McDonald's. I found that my kids had an awkward time working with the large straw for their tiny drink. A knife could work but in a busy place with kids around scissors seemed safer.
I agree on the Olight S2R Baton II, a titanium in neutral white would be awesome. Even the regular finish S2R Baton II in neutral white would be terrific. A fuller spectrum is better in so many ways, Olight needs to give us a choice of NW (Neutral White), I'm over CW (Crappy White). The only more recent S2R Baton II I have is at least a bit warmer, I don't know if that has been a change or I just got lucky on my green version. I love my Olights and have given away some S2R Baton II flashlights, but a warmer tint would be so much better. Meanwhile I have often been using/carrying my Ti Olight Baton Pro. It is still Crappy White, but at least is on the warmer side for better perception and less interference with sleep rhythms.
Check out the SlimFold wallets, I use one and love it! It's durable and thin so it leaves room in my pocket for other things like chapstick, earbuds, and knives.
The only thing that changes in my EDC is my wepon, that depends on the weather and what I'm wearing and what I'm doing etc. I carry a Leatherman Wingman and a Boker Strike, Olight Mx1, a Bic lighter, two keys on a locking Nite-Ize carabineer. my phone, Casio G-Shock GW-350. Front pocket wallet.
Nice. I want that notebook/pen/knife/light wallet thingy. You forgot to include a G43 with talon grips and Glock night sights, OWB holster, spare mag. Otherwise complete. Good video, had fun watching it. Thank you
Hi there, nice blog with awesome stuf! where can I puchase those hangers on your stuff , knives etc. thanks
I just realized I've been watching for 3 years and I've only really started doing edc yesterday I collect things but i don't carry it daily
Put some shrink tubing around that belt key clip.
Should add a thin layer of FlexSeal so the clip doesnt rub against the belt.
Ne subscriber here. Thanks for the great reviews and other content.
Just an FYI if you have allergy issues you should try the Kirklands Aller-tec. It's 365 tables for a lot less and generally on Amazon if you don't have a Costco account
Use a nite ize s biner as key hanger. Looks so much cleaner. Plus you can lock it to belt loop.
264
I discovered your channel and it is fun to see the different types of EDC that can be constructed for different types of situations
should put a piece of heat shrink tube on the belt clip should protect the leather from those sharp edges
Love your vids man 376 is my guess for the number
Hello, I was wondering if the lever gear bit vault will fit in the front right pocket of the Arc Company bolder wallet
Where do you buy the cool paracord aluminum and metal atachments??
My favorite edc knife is the crkt drifter,its only like $25 and is really good quality 😊
Damn, I've been catching up on some videos of yours I missed and I wish I'd seen this video and the tactile turn videos sooner. Now a lot of the glider models are sold out, and there was a sale going on as too. Oh well
Kinda want one of those pens. They sound pretty cool.
I love your videos! I haven't watched in a while, but you're the reason I started carrying a swappable razor blade in addition to my normal folding blade, and I'm so happy I did! It's so nice having that super fine edge for certain tasks, and if I need to go ham on something I don't have to be afraid of damaging it because i can just turn turn it around, swap it for a new one for cheap!
Also my number is 536!
Can you see if they will ever come back out with the scales that are on your par mill 2
