Question/Advice/Discussion New Job, New EDC

Post image
Upvotes

I owned a lawn and landscape business for 12 years and started a new job in outside sales at the end of last summer. I’ve always naturally been disorganized which is why I carry the moleskine. There’s a lot that has changed in my day to day, I take more notes for phone calls, a lot more paperwork, I carry business cards everywhere with me, I use a pen more, I’m on my cell phone taking pictures more, I’m way less sweaty than I used to be, I sit more than I ever have, I use my key ring more often, the list goes on. My pants have changed, my jackets have changed, I now carry a messenger bag, like my whole life is different- you get the picture.

I’m looking for new stuff. Stylish stuff is a plus but not a must. I think I need a new carabiner, probably upgrade the pen cartridge, and most importantly I need to do something about organizing my notes. Maybe the old pocket notebook isn’t the move anymore, maybe I need something bigger but thats what I need help with. What are you guys using for notes and organization?

My current loadout: Pants- Duluth Foreman 5 pocket khakis AirPods Wallet- Madewell Money clip slim wallet Knife- Victorinox Alox Notebook- pocket moleskine Pen- Zebra F-701 Not pictured- Copenhagen, Handkerchief, and IPhone 16 with Quadlock Case

This may be common knowledge but wanted to throw it out there because I just saw it today.

If you have the Shop app, you can place an order on the App for Big Idea Design, and they have a promo where you get $20 off an order of $60. Additionally, you can stack any other coupons on top of that! I got a mini bolt action for what I’m hoping is a good price haha.

Question/Advice/Discussion Patch on Alpaka?

Post image
6 Upvotes

After a long wait, I’ve finally gotten my hands on my first Alpaka Elements Backpack Pro! Super excited about it. Just curious—has anyone here with an Alpaka bag ever added a patch to theirs?

Any tips on the best way to attach a patch? I’m wondering if gluing or sewing it directly onto the bag might mess with its water resistance. Thoughts?

Question/Advice/Discussion Are small tools useful

Post image
70 Upvotes

Ok so first off I get it I am the odd one out. I carry a 5in vice grip and a 6 in 1 screwdriver in my back pocket along with a deluxe tinker as my knife. The knife changes now and then. I did carry a surge on my hip every day for years and love it but I found I need full tool so much I just carry them. I did start with a the screwdriver and water pump pliers. The 7in wiha are a replacement for a 7in channel locks that wore out and they work amazing. but I found the ability that locking pliers gave me I just couldn’t pass up so I switched to carrying the locking pliers and the 6 in 1 in my back pocket everyday. Now on to my question do you all find small 4in tools or smaller worth carrying. what do you end up using them for. I mean I do find myself using the little pliers on the tinker now and then but I grab my locking pliers or something bigger 99% of the time. Maybe I just run into bigger stuff from day to day. I am a believer in carry what you need and use it. And just want to know how the small tools work out thanks so much

Question/Advice/Discussion That knife is fake?

0 Upvotes

Good afternoon!

I ordered an Ontario Rat I from rat.com.ua as a gift for my father, but I am concerned about the fact that I was not contacted to confirm the order, but was sent immediately by cash on delivery.

Also, the price is 2500 UAH ($61).

I don't know much about knives, is it a fake?

Question/Advice/Discussion What size power bank do you carry?

I understand we have different needs but I'm just curious what people carry. So what's in your bag?

  • - no extra power
  • - I carry wall charger
  • - 5000 mAh
  • - 10 000 mAh
  • - 20 000 mAh

I'm rethinking my power so any feedback or tips and tricks are much welcome.

0 Upvotes

I'll ask the counter argument for those in the USA looking at imports in a separate post

Personally, I've got a load of US made 5.11 Tactical bags, CRK knives, and lots of assorted stuff sourced from US companies. Tariffs are going to make replacing them a lot more expensive. Admittedly they'll last years with good care, but a lot of EDC posts I see are from the USA. I'm.wondering if we might see changes in what we're carrying outside the USA

Question/Advice/Discussion Fastening strap that doubles as a wristband?

9 Upvotes

I saw a product in here and for the life of me can‘t find it anymore. Does anyone know?

It was a fastening strap made for attaching stuff to hiking backpacks. It could be worn as a wristband when not in use. It was out of a stretchable material and had holes in it to adjust the strapping. I think it was transparent.
