Today we are sitting down with one of the most, or maybe even the most, practical EDC guys I know; my good buddy Jamie! Me and Jamie have been working together in the EDC knife and tool world for over 5 years now and he is the other half of this channel! He has been carrying the same EDC knife in his pocket for 4 years straight in the shape of a few different Benchmade Bugouts. He does not carry any pocket jewelry and until recently refused to carry any multi-tools. Like I said he is a very practical boarder line minimalist person. Recently though Jamie has had some everyday carry evolution so we sat down to sift through the nitty gritty on why we carry the things we do and how those things can evolve, be added to, and subtracted from.

I just joined the patreon as the first member. Hope to see much more content in the future as people discover the channel and you guys grow.
I am a Custodian in a middle school and my Free P4 is literally the greatest thing ever. I still carry a bugout occasionally, but the Leatherman is a great EDC.
Edc for me started as pure utility. I have these basic needs to cut things, see when it's dark, fix something, write things down etc... And it's so satisfying to be equipped with most everything I'm gonna need that day. Then it evolved into more of pocket jewelry (serving the same basic functions) but its a lot more fun and expensive! Gear is one of my favorite "hobbies" now... Love the content Zac and Jamie please keep it going!
I've been carrying a Cold Steel Code 4 in CTS-XHP since 2016. I bought several once they changed Steel for great price. They are out of hand now.
another PLUS for Jamie, is he doesn't say RAD, like you.
Why would you go from a Benchmade bugout to a We Banter… your going from a tried and true axis lock to one of the weakest locks, a liner lock. They aren’t even in the same ballpark?!? It’s like driving around in a v6 Camry then buying a dodge avenger to replace it… a definite step down! If you went from a bugout to a SOG Terminus XR LTE…yes it would be a step down in price, but it’s definitely on par with the bugout . The SOG Terminus XR LTE might be more durable than the bugout. If you were gonna step up in quality or price , buy the Benchmade freek.
Jaime, in a black hat, dark grey shirt, and black pants: "I love blacked out knives." Who would've guessed? 😂
Carry a Recon 1.
Take a shot every time Zac interrupts him in the middle of his sentence.
I carry my EDCs for over twenty years now, and never had the desire to change them. If you find one that fits your daily needs, you stick with it until lost or broken...
Carry a screwdriver, Jaime!
I love that you guys are still hanging and it is one of the reasons why this channel is so awesome
Evolving EDC is so cool to talk about. Yes what you carry is cool but not everyone needs to carry the same thing. Not even the same person! Such a cool concept and love seeing you guys. Keep up the great work
My EDC is a super basic Victorinox Spartan, I'm a professional machinist, I work beside a tool box and I always have tools in my pocket, I find most multi-tools have too many unnecessary add-ons, but at the same time I like having a mini pry bar ( some may call it a screwdriver)
I've been carrying a CRKT M16-Z13LEK for roughly 10 years. Give or take a couple years, I don't remember. I grew up loving knives, and this was the first knife that I felt like I could trust 100% without a doubt in any scenario. I used the glass breaker and seatbelt cutter while responding to a flipped SUV. I used the seatbelt cutter to safely cut wristbands off patients/residents regularly. It was easy to open and close one handed. I love that knife. They just recently brought it back after it was discontinued and I bought a couple more just to have in case they ever dc them again. More recently I switched careers to an office job and I keep it in my lunch bag or car (and its bigger brother in a bug out bag in case I ever have to evac. (Fires in cali are crazy every year.) Now I've got a supertinker at my desk, and a tinker small in my pocket. If I know I'm going to be working on some heavy duty construction or outdoorsy types of work I'll carry a Leatherman P4.
Good to see you guys again, and I have no doubt your channel will continue to grow for years to come. Nice job!
Love that you guys are still pushing your content and style!
