Surviving the Daily

The concept of EDC reflects an individual's mindset of readiness and adaptability in their day-to-day life. It's important for each person to tailor their EDC items to their unique needs and circumstances. The goal is to strike a balance between practicality, functionality, and personal comfort. The specific items included in an EDC kit can vary widely depending on personal preferences, lifestyle, and individual needs. I hope while sharing my EDC, I can inspire others and help them refine their own.

Outask sent over the TD2 Telescopic Lantern, and this one actually saved my bacon.

I got a piece of metal in my tire and had to change it on the side of the road in the dark. The TD2 helped me see what I was doing and helped make me visible to other drivers.

It works as a camp light, work light, roadside emergency light, signal light, and even has USB-C charging, reverse charging, magnetic feet, and a telescoping pole.

Would you keep one of these in your vehicle?

‪@maxpedition‬ sent over the new Jumbo Novo Plus, and I packed it out as a 24-hour emergency pack.

This is not a bugout bag or a get-home bag. This is a compact survival pack meant to help me last around 24 hours if I get lost, hurt, or stuck in the woods while waiting for help.

Inside I have water treatment, medical gear, fire starting, shelter, navigation, a headlamp, a fixed blade, pepper spray, cordage, food, and more.

Wurkkos sent over the new HD17 headlamp, and this thing is bright.

We’re talking 2,500 lumens, floodlight, spotlight, red light, USB-C charging, magnetic tail, 18650 battery, and outdoor beam shots at the end.

This is not a weak little trail light. This is a powerhouse headlamp.

Olight sent over the ArkPro in the new Nebula Violet / Clear White colorway, and this thing is gorgeous.

Same ArkPro platform, new finish.

Spotlight, pure flood, UV, green laser, USB-C, magnetic charging, IPX7 water resistance, and seven total configurations.

But let’s be honest, this video is mostly about that color.

Walmart’s tool section has changed, and Hyper Tough might be getting a serious upgrade.

I picked out a handful of budget EDC-friendly tools, including utility knives, markers, titanium coated blades, quick adjust pliers, and an 800 lumen rechargeable pocket light.

Most of these were $15 or less.

One of them absolutely surprised me.

Would you carry Hyper Tough tools for EDC?

FINTISO sent another knife into the channel, and this one might be their best yet.

The Atlas comes with 14C28N blade steel, G10 scales, ceramic ball bearings, a liner lock, satin finish, milled liners, and a milled stainless steel pocket clip.

After checking out the Harper and Toucan, I think FINTISO may have topped themselves again with this one.

Is the Atlas their best knife so far?

I’ve been trying to make my hikes better for cardio and core strength, but weighted vests and regular backpacks just were not working for me.

So I finally picked up the GORUCK Basic Rucker 17L.

This bag has changed the way I hike.

In this video, I go over the bag, the ruck plate, the trail gear, the medical items, the ROXON Flex, lighting, hydration, and everything I have packed inside.

Do you ruck, hike, walk, or use a weighted vest?

Roaring Fire sent over their brand new Spotfire EDC Pouch, and I wanted to see how versatile it really is.

So I loaded it out four different ways:

* Fix-it kit
* Compact tool kit
* Bleed-stop / trauma kit
* Fire kit

It has MOLLE webbing, YKK zippers, a big Velcro field, an RFID-blocking front pocket, a removable organizer, and a surprising amount of room for such a compact pouch.

What would you turn this pouch into?

This is the deeper look at the ROXON Flex.

In the first video, I gave it a quick introduction. This time, I customized it for my hiking bag.

I added:

* Tapered saw
* Short scissors
* Ferro rod / flint

And I removed a few tools that made less sense for this specific outdoor setup.

The idea of a modular multitool just makes sense. Instead of carrying what the manufacturer thinks you need, the ROXON Flex lets you build around what you actually use.

Huge thanks to @roxon.usa for sending this into the channel.
