Tractor supply Co would probably make an interesting video. I got a Kershaw Chive there I absolutely love, and they sell some lights, key tools, etc. it would be interesting to see what you could come up with.
Taylor! On the next episode of the EDC Olympics, I would like to see what you can put together from Cabella's. Thanks for taking the time to make this vid! Have a good weekend.
They did fix the detent on the Sprint series… I sent one back that I bought about a year ago… and immediately sent it back. I tried again and the new one was much better
Academy can be so hit or miss. The one near me has a slew of Benchmade and ZT’s behind the counter and has Rat I’s and base Terminus XR’s on the knife wall. But most seem to be all cheap Kershaw’s, SOG’s, and Gerbers.
It depends on the stores too; we get select models from each dealer. Also; a lot of the time other stores take them from one another and have them transferred.
I love my prybid utility. Use it every day. As for writing, I switched to Forever writing pens. They write on anything except glas. It looks like pencil writing though it can't be erased.
I use the"Strobe", it's saved my life on at least one occasion and if you haven't got it that one time you need it then you are going to be in deep s#it.
Yea I was pretty surprised he didn’t go with a better knife. Every academy I’ve been to has a pretty nice selection of those three brands as well as some higher end sogs
Hey can you guys do a new york legal, cheap edc knife reccomendation? Basically, under 4 inch blade, and CANNOT flip open in any way, blade must be pushed out manually. No automatic or spring assisted, and no loose opening knives that you can flip open, new laws consider them switchblades
the rest of the video was great, but my favorite part was in the first 3 minutes when you mentioned your watch strap because I've been looking for a good strap for a while
Bums me out that knives are so forbidden in the UK now. Most of my small collection is illegal to own, and strictly stays at home. Still, I'm determined to one day own a Microtech Exocet, somehow.
Maybe when you are done with all the challenges putting together the best of the best. Would be nice to see what you think the best edc you can build from just brick and mortar stores as a whole(not just one store)
Definitely Cabelas, also the dollar store or a thrift store (not joking) to make more a creative budget EDC. Not expecting anything for a long duration carry, but if you're traveling or just getting started and have a tight budget.
I went to Academy Sports in Jacksonville Florida a couple days ago. I did get a Coast rechargeable small 320 lumen flashlight. The knife selection was limited as were the multi tools. I didn’t look for the other items on your list. I’m enjoying the channel and rediscovering EDC.
That academy is hit or miss over there and then bass pro is right around the corner like you said in another video. Cool seeing a guy make a video around where you are lol. Nice video
My $300 Bestech togatta has a very light detent. Blade shakes out very easily. Wonder if it's just mine or if they all are like that. On the pro side, the closing action is buttery smooth.
Awesome as always! The old man in me (not much older then you at 38) says "dang it boy, would you just get the damn 110 already and put a kwiki thumb stud on it already!" Also very cool on the BDEDC Minichamp. would love to see that topo on an Inox model or custom brass/stainless scale models.
I have that same flashlight. I've had it for about 7months and let me tell you I love it. I use it for work and for working on my truck ,cause of the magnetic tail cap. I've dropped it,gets oil on it from work,and it can a lot of heat since I work in a forging shop. Recommend 👌
Idea: Like father like son, Can you do a Kid version of an EDC? is this even possible with a knife? Or maybe a tool more friendly to maybe a 10 year old. Just throwin some ideas! Great Content!
These look very similar to nebo lights, but not as good and even with nebo you can tell they're a bit off brand. Btw if you carry a utility knife, what do you use your folder for ?
Hey Taylor, quick question? Do you like the new worrior 2 mini better than the first worrior mini? I find the magnet on the the first mini is not that great. Your thoughts ? Thanks keep up the great content 👍
Hey Taylor, I carry a Wuben L50 flash light. I bought it from Amazon and I think you may like it. I have a RovyVon A3 on my keychain from watching your older videos
Yeah I really liked the overall design of my sprint select. But after cutting 3 fingers on it because it opened in my pocket, decided it was not the knife for me. It's a real shame , it's a nice knife if buck would redesign it into a safer knife it would be a good knife.
I didn't know that Academy had Right in the rain products. There is one over the other side of town. I am going to have to go over there and check it out .I have been ordering from Rite in the rain website and paying the shipping charges. The taxes might be cheaper then the shipping charge
@@cameronbottoms1118 I have been using rite in the rain paper for several years .The store I bought them from went out a couple of years ago . I never knew Academy carried them
@@cameronbottoms1118 I assume you work for Academy . There is a place here where I live called Arline international. They sell luggage and other business items including the Parker pressurized ink refills. Thanks for info
I just bought a Gerber prybrid utility knife. I was wondering if I take out the razor blade and discard of it, will I be able to get pass TSA at the airport???
You don’t own a Buck 110??? I’m shocked! You need to get one! Ive got two in my collection and love them! Im patiently waiting on Buck to release the new 040 Onset knife! Check it out on there site! Stay sharp brother!
This is cool and all but... damn addicting. Oh and that'll be the day you catch me wearing a $400 accessory. I could put 4 new tires on my car for that lol. PS. I have all of this gear on me at all times. Minus a watch. You know what I use the most? The damn safety knife work forces us to use 😒🤨

Would love to see an edc set up from Cabelas or Dunhams sports
I would love to see a Bass Pro EDC for sure! Love that place
Just got off work and a new video is up, right in time for the weekend. Nice.
I have the Gerber utility knife that you bought. I used it for cutting drywall and prying out nails in my basement. Solid knife.
I had it and loved it until it broke. The part that holds the blade is attached to the slider with very minimal metal and snapped
I love the prybrid, I carry a prybrid x at all times

Northern Tool, and I would love to see you pick just one knife from SMKW store.
Awesome vid! I bought a Casio Duro at an Academy on clearance for $8 once.

Don't extend the Gerbers all the way unless you want to swap the blade.
Yes!!

agreed. love the feature on my brass K18 and really wish the olight i3t/i5t had it too.
The academy near me has a case of knives as well with ZT, spyderco, and benchmade knives in it.
Yea I was pretty surprised he didn’t go with a better knife. Every academy I’ve been to has a pretty nice selection of those three brands as well as some higher end sogs
The Academy stores in my area don’t have knives in the back. They used to but phased them out.
@@BestDamnEDC shitty the ones in South Georgia, North Florida, and Texas all still carry higher end knives at least.
You could call the challenge for piecing together an EDC with what you have "The MacGyver Challenge"
Bass Pro would be interesting. When is the tough clip coming out ? And whats the deal on the watches ??

Go watch the civivi video and pick the slip joint you like the best
NY is such a fuckin joke 😂😂😂😂😂
BassPro/Cabelas would get my vote for an edc mission. 👍
my academy had a rat 2 which i think may beat that depending on preference of course
Man love ur vids can get enough of them keep up the amazing work.
the rest of the video was great, but my favorite part was in the first 3 minutes when you mentioned your watch strap because I've been looking for a good strap for a while
Our Academy has a Bugout back near the firearms. It’s the lone option over $50
perfect video to start the friday night with 😁👍
Bums me out that knives are so forbidden in the UK now. Most of my small collection is illegal to own, and strictly stays at home. Still, I'm determined to one day own a Microtech Exocet, somehow.
Nice Lebo's hat man! I used to be in charge of the men's boots and dress shoes departments in the 74 location. Small world! Academy rocks btw.
Personally, I'm much more worried about a folder failing and closing on my fingers than opening accidentally.
I am too after having a Civivi Appalachian Drifter collapse on to my hand when I was being stupid and having to go to the ER to get 5 stitches
Hence a good quality liner lock!
That's why you don't use a liner lock
I work for Academy; i’ll be intrigued to see what your outcome is.
I guess we can cross off Buck Knives as a potential sponsor. 🤣
Def snag ya a 110 - solid - simple - killer ergos - just a classic every1 should have 👍👍💥💥🍻- great vid amigo
They sell a pocket holder for the Gerber Prybrid on ebay
Great video could you please do one for bass pro shop
Dat BDEDC topo minichamp, FTW!!!
Anyone know if it ever came out?
@@yourmonkeyoverlord6470it did indeed. I bought and sold it already 😂
I love this series. Here in Europe we don't have all this big stores, it would be interesting that you did the same in decathlon.
Congrats!
That Superchamp looks awesome!
You should do making a full edc. Collaborate with makers from RUclips. That would be awesome
I would’ve gone with something from Ontario Knife Company. Probably the RAT-1
Maybe when you are done with all the challenges putting together the best of the best. Would be nice to see what you think the best edc you can build from just brick and mortar stores as a whole(not just one store)

Buck has been known to have light detents on their flippers
Great video as always! Where did you snag that WE shirt from, I must have one!
Where can we look for that SAK? Looking forward to that!
I went to Academy Sports in Jacksonville Florida a couple days ago. I did get a Coast rechargeable small 320 lumen flashlight. The knife selection was limited as were the multi tools. I didn’t look for the other items on your list. I’m enjoying the channel and rediscovering EDC.
Can you do a video on the lightest knives that are still a decent size
I'd buy that mini-Champ SAK.
That crease in his forehead says it all.
That academy is hit or miss over there and then bass pro is right around the corner like you said in another video. Cool seeing a guy make a video around where you are lol. Nice video
You should've grabbed the Gerber Sumo, for the money it's a good 🔪
They’re expensive at Academy.

Please do a Cabelas next PLEASE
Ooh I want to get that mini champ
hey looking great man
what app are you using
and what a vid!!!!
never seen a shop like that in the uk
Ace Hardware EDC? Or (for the Old North State locals) Mast General Store EDC-bonus points for the OG in Valle Crucis.
You just reminded me why I don't shop at Academy...lol
My academy in Baton Rouge carries Zero tolerance and SOG and spyderco

Please try Cabela’s.
Home Depot or Lowe’s EDC
I just found out about chums wallets bought 2. Looks great with the window. Just wish they made them more water resistant
Harbor freight or any farm store--tsc, rual king etc
10:53 I had the one he chose. I like it but the button did break. The connection point on the button is very thin. Was kinda disappointed.
Bass pro would be nice
Hey Bro. NC in the house! Keep up the good content! About what part of the state are you located?
I wanna see a complete dollar tree EDC
Hey Taylor, I carry a Wuben L50 flash light. I bought it from Amazon and I think you may like it. I have a RovyVon A3 on my keychain from watching your older videos
Can you do a U.K. legal EDC please 👍🏻
Yeah I really liked the overall design of my sprint select. But after cutting 3 fingers on it because it opened in my pocket, decided it was not the knife for me.
It's a real shame , it's a nice knife if buck would redesign it into a safer knife it would be a good knife.
I cant believe that You don not own a Buck 110..Maybe thats a Video Idea...EDC the Buck 110
That's a rebranded NEBO flashlight
Dude... A Vic champ! you hid that from sight real quick :)
do a best EDC from Etsy!
Great review since we don’t have that store in FL. Future stores, how about Dicks, Bass Pro, Grainger’s and Ace Hardware?
One of the dollar stores, ie dollar general, dollar tree ext.
Can you buy anything in the USA that isn’t encased in single use plastic? Almost everything you bought would come in a cardboard box in Europe.
not really they really like that shitty packaging
You should have went with a W.R. Case knife
I think that the new rules should be that if you have something, you don't need to get another one.

@@kg4tri I do work for them; not a bad place to work especially during this ammo bullshittery. Made a lot of friends because of it.
Literally was just there few days ago
I have that light an it sucks it’ll turn on in your pocket an burn the hell outta you feels almost like a bee sting lol
I just bought a Gerber prybrid utility knife. I was wondering if I take out the razor blade and discard of it, will I be able to get pass TSA at the airport???
I was a see a gas station version of the one stop edc.

They carry more expensive knives at there gun counter. They carry Benchmade, CRKT, ZT and some others.
Not every location does. This store used to have some ZT knives but they got phased out.
Benchmade, ZT, CRKT, Gerber, Kershaw, Ontario knife company, and a few others. I’m an associate for them. Good store to work for.
I believe that's the Ortis.
I’ve never heard of of academy sports before I’m in Florida we got bass pro shops for our knives that’s all you get😂🤣
You shoud definitely do an Aliexpress/Alibaba EDC
Do a Walmart one
Should I get a gerber prybrid or is there a better comparable tool
This is cool and all but... damn addicting.
Oh and that'll be the day you catch me wearing a $400 accessory. I could put 4 new tires on my car for that lol.
PS.
I have all of this gear on me at all times. Minus a watch. You know what I use the most? The damn safety knife work forces us to use 😒🤨
That must be an issue with pricing on that coast flashlight. I bought that exact flashlight at a big box store for my son when he was 8 or 9 for $12
Flashlights are highly priced for academy.
Dang looking good man.
Should have bought the Buck 110.
