EDC Essentials: A List of Must-Haves

[Bassbob]

For me EDC is completely different than for most. Most of the items listed I have carried for years and don't feel the need to identify them as EDC but my personal likes/habits. Getting into what I consider EDC the only changes for me have been a firearm, holster, and a tactical type belt. There have been some improvements for my lifelong items; keys have been replaced by a fob, knives no longer require a sheath but use a clip, and Titanium watchbands all make for great improvements. The one item that is never mentioned is trying to get through the day with a clear mind.

Isn’t EDC literally defined as items you carry every day ?

That would be it.

My most important EDC item is my smokes. Believe me, none of you want to face me down if I ain’t got them.

I remember those days, actually, remember them somewhat fondly. I am glad I quit, but cannot say I did not enjoy a smoke, especially with a drink.

Yes, you are correct. But I did clarify I view it differently.

If I need a tacticool watch, I certainly need a plate carrier too /s
