- Finally filmed a video showing off everything I keep in my Maxpedition Micro pocket organiser and it is seriously maxed out.
I know I got centimetres and millimetres mixed up in the video but I bet you're going to tell me in the comments anyway.
I will try and find links to everything I have in my kit but some of it I have made and other bits I have picked up over time in all sorts of locations so I won't be able to link absolutely everything.

the Spyderco+cork fitting into the knipex handle space was amazing lol.
I wasn’t quite sure if that was a “refresher” wipe at first lol. Great video
It was pretty big innit
One of the best well thought out kits I have seen. Thanks for sharing it with us. I’m an EDC fanatic for the past 30 years. I’m always trying to build the perfect kit. I think my wife is ready to have me baker acted. I am subscribing to your Chanel now.
Thanks very much for watching and subscribing, would be great to see what your kit is like.
Hello. A very clear showing of an excellent kit. I always enjoy this style of video. I am always looking for new ideas. All the best.
Wow, amazing set up! Great job. Love how you fixed the knife to go in the wrench!
Bro.... that little kit is fire🔥. I love your taste in your EDC tiny pack.
Wow very nice kit. I have a micro as well and I’m blown away by how much it will hold! One small suggestion if I may? Medical supplies of some sort. I carry a couple 2 x 2 gauze pads and a couple bandaids. Just the very basic just in case of a small injury. Of course being a paramedic my mind set goes that direction anyway, but thought I’d share that suggestion. Loved your kit and I feel I need to find that tiny mechanical pencil now!!
Hi there, thanks so much for the suggestions, I really do need to get a few small medical supplies in there. I'm pleased you love your Micro as well, such a great bit of kit. The pencil is called an Ohto Minimo, hope that helps.
Very cool mate, well put together and very well presented. Enjoy that.
Very well thought out kit with high quality items. You did a good job on assembling this. I've seen thousands of videos on EDC pouches, most of them with nonsense stuff but with this here I agree with every item. Seems that you have put a lot of thoughts in it and have experience with EDC and tools. Would be great to see more videos from you! Cheers from Germany!
Thanks very much, very kind of you to say. I will put an update video online at some point to show what has changed over the last few months.
Cheers
@@carryco I'm excited to see what has changed! Will leave an abo to be sure I don't miss!
Very well laid out! Great job!
That's an extremely well done kit!!!
best tinker EDC ever , great inventiveness, well done !
Thanks very much
very solid kit. nice work.
One of the most effective and usable EDC I’ve seen over. And I’ve seen a lot ^_^
Thanks very much, kind of you to say.
Great information and suggestions for the EDC
Dude. Loved this video! Keep the great content coming !
Thanks very much, I'm hoping to bring a few more videos including a follow up to this kit soon.
It's the biggest toolkit ever! Big like & thanks for a good ideas! Only 1 think no like (no problem) a nano spiderco knives, no its not good. But how you made a little holder, the greatest! Thanks for all ideas!
Hi there,
Thanks for your kind words, I've made lots of improvements since this video. I agree about the SpyderCo, it's not a super useful tool but it comes in handy at times.
Cheers
Excellent kit! The best I’ve seen so far in the EDC community!
Thanks very much, very kind of you to say, I've made some nice improvements since this video
Great Kit!!
Love the cork idea for storying loose items in between pliers handles
I have a couple of different sized paperclips attached to the bands inside of my kit. Paperclips are always handy and serve many needs.
Nice idea, I'm going to try and fit a couple in my kit.
@@carryco thank you for the compliment. Great video, sir!
This is a genius kit. A lot of people know how to fit small items in but not in a way that's useful or effective. Your kit actually is leagues above those 'Altoid tin' kits in that everything has a use and practicality. You also make a really great point about the Leatherman bits. It's so true. If you lost one bit, you're SOL. I personally shifted away from Leatherman bits as well because they get mangled pretty easily (compared to Wiha or Wera bits), they also don't have as much force because it's half the size (they just don't feel as locked in), and it's actually pretty cumbersome to take each bit out and use on a clunky multitool when it's much easier to use a driver instead. I love how you did that cork thing. It's just so next level. And the way you labeled everything is just so eloquent. Also the WD40 idea seems so damn genius as well but I'll admit I'm scared to try that. :P
Hi there,
Thanks very much for your kind message, I've moved putting my kit together and I get plenty of use out of it, I've made a lot of changes since this video so I'll probably upload a new one soon. The WD40 is still holding up ok so far 😂
Cheers
Not a bad way to go I went a little different with mine in my video but great stuff man. I’m glad tool kits are becoming more popular. Hope to see your channel continue to grow man.
The only thing I might look at upgrading is your ratchet to either the topeak rocket lite ratchet or the Granite Rockwell mini ratchet same size and shape but better bit retention and a selector switch instead of flipping the ratchet over they’re practically Identical aside from a few pieces you see them come with so I’d go with whatever you can a find a better deal on.
Thanks very much for the feedback and suggestions, both of those ratchets look like top upgrades on the Victorinox one so I'll check them out properly. Just about to head over and watch your kit video now 👍. Cheers
very nice kit! liked as the 1,000 like ! haha. Good job on the items
Excellent! Insightful. Cheers. George from Greece.
That cork insert is genius. Giving me ideas here. I think I'll go ruin some Ikea cork hot plates.
Here by way of my buddy RHINO54... nice content. Happy to subscribe!
Thanks very much for the Sub, loving your channel as well, I've subbed. Cheers
I came in because your kit is interesting, but you have such a pleasant voice. You could probably do other type of videos narrating in addition to EDC.
Thanks very much, very kind of you to say.
Knipex pliers are my most used tool at work working on chemical tankers. When you adjust them just right they work like a ratchet and make the job very quick and the angled teeth get the same grip as the old fashioned pipe wrenches. I've put cheater bars on my larger ones and put a ton of torque on them and I've still not had any break. I have that mini knipex plier and I never thought of adding it to my edc but I definitely will now. Nice kit you have put together!
I love hearing about gear being put to proper use, I can't say I've put mine up to a proper test but I can tell they'd be able to handle anything, cheers for watching.
Neatly put together kit.
Thanks very much, very kind of you
Bloody good show ,well impressed, just starting a edc kit ,great ideas
I'm pleased you enjoyed watching it, hope you like creating your kit/EDC as much as I do
Brilliant mate! Just got my pouch same as yours and still looking for an idea on what to put in there 👍👍
Pleased to hear it. Enjoy kitting your one out, it's a lot of fun.
Hey you sound like alfie aesthetics, great video btw
Great setup, it does inspired me to make small but very functional EDC like yours. I used to maxed out my Vanquest EDCM Husky for EDC (inside my backpack). Your setup is great for on body carry...thanks for sharing 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks very much, kind of you to say, I'm pleased my kit could be of some inspiration.
i have the cobra xs and i’m waiting for the wrench pliers xs (ordered over a month ago) to decide which one to use as a slingshot. I found a 1/4” square to 1/4” hex locking bit holders and I plan to weld them to the tips of the handle of one of the pliers so that it’s more of a multi tool but also so I have a really fast way to attach slingshot bands. I really like the knife holder thing, i’m probably going to do that to whichever pliers I don’t Frankenstein. And I’ve been strongly considering a small pouch. something I’m looking for is a bright rechargeable flashlight which I can use as an emergency battery bank to recharge my phone so that it’s still practical to carry in the daytime.
Oh nice, it would be great to see how the Frankenknipex come out once you've chosen which one to do. A good extensive pouch is definitely something that's worth carrying in my opinion. The torch idea is a brilliant one, I'm not sure I've ever seen one with that functionality before, hopefully someone brings it out.
A replacement for the Victorinox bit ratchet could be a Prestacycle or Topeak bit ratchet. In the States, a couple other brands like the Power Torque bit ratchet sold at O'Reilly Auto Parts can be found. The Icon Bit ratchet from Harbor Freight might be preferred by some. You've got a good bit of kit there! Thanks for sharing!
Hi there,
Thanks very much for the suggestions for the ratchet driver replacement, I've been thinking about replacing it for a while but still can't bring myself to replace it yet, I just had a look at your suggestions and they all look perfect.
Cheers
Awesome ideas. thanx. I want one of those rulers.
Hi, im new to the Hobby, and i found your videos very entertaining as well as informative keep up the good work
I'm pleased you're loving EDC, thanks for your kind words. I hope to get some new videos out in the summer. Cheers
That is amazing. you are so clever.
Nice job. I like your kit.
Thanks very much
The cork holder is genius 😁
Wonderful Tailored items for your Organizer !! You gave me some good ideas. Thanks for that.
2:16 ..The Flashlight Nitcortip SE 700 lumen...does it run on AAA batteries or a specialty battery ??
4:14 ...I always put some duct tape over my Bic lighter triggers, to prevent the trigger from accidently being pressed in the kit.
5:27.. Excellent creative PS on the DIY cork holder that fits perfectly in the Cobra Pliers
10:33..been using regular 50 cent, paper pocket notebooks for field notes, for decades and never had an issue with rain (A simple custom cut to size ziplok baggie works perfectly)....Everyone is buying up these $30cad Rite In Rain Notebooks ...and they rarely use them...lol. It baffles me.
Rhodia has a good GSM Paper.
Suggestion : add a small Ziplock baggie with bandaids and a straw tube of Polysporin triple strength for a Booboo Kit.
Cheers !! Happy New Year to you.
Hi there,
Thanks so much for the feedback and the tips, the Nitrcore has a built in LI battery which I'm able to charge using the power bank inside the kit, there is a similarly sized/shaped Royvon called the E3 which takes a AAA but it's just a touch too big for my kit.
I like your recommendation for some antibiotic cream, we don't have that in the UK but I will definitely add some antiseptic to the kit if I find some room.
Cheers and happy new year to you too
Great video, thanks.
Banaids! Great video!
You can actually slip a couple longer zip ties on the inside of the bag. Going around everything slipped inside the fold of the bag. Just slip it inside yhe fold with the seam. If you understand what I mean?
It wont even be seen that way. I`ve had it for several years.
Yeah I get you, that's a really clever idea, I'll have a go at fitting some of those in, could be really handy.
Cheers
Nicely done sir! Do you have a link for the mechanical pencil? I’ve never seen one so slim. Keep up the good work..
Hi there, I don't have a link but if you search 'Otho Minimo pencil' in Google you'll find it, it's a very clever little thing.
Nice load out
Thanks very much.
Awesome how many items this tiny pouch can fit.
Nice!
Nice, thanks for sharing.
No worries, pleased you like it.
The Spyderco in the cork is very good idea. Have you considered a Spyderco like a manbug or similar and reducing or removing the cork insert? Very nice kit, great job.
I did consider a larger knife but the tolerances are so tight that the Spyderco Bug is about the largest knife that will fit, the Spyderco Honeybee would have fitted without the cork but then it wouldn't stay in position when the pouch is closed.
I might put tape around your spare Stanley blade, just in case
Nice kit, loved this video. How do you make the labels? They look really nice 👍🏻
Hi there, thanks very much. The labels were made with an old Roland Stika vinyl cutter which I picked up off eBay.
Clear labels for a p-touch label maker would be similar. (Black on clear. Red on clear, White on clear)
I subbed greatcontent thanks
The guy version of girls, what's in my bag? Video's. So cute and adorable.
Cracking setup you've got there! I also carry a Maxpedition Micro organiser that I have crammed full of stuff, would love to share it with you as it may give you some ideas (as indeed your video has given me). Out of interest, what is the brand of powerbank you're using?
Hi there, thanks for watching, would be great to see your set up as well, I'm always looking for ideas. The powerbank is by a brand called PowerRush but I think they've since been discontinued.
Something to think about a glue stick (they do not leak and they work with a lighter) and a little bit of bank line or some spiderwire fishing line and a needle. A little bit of 25 gauge floral wire goes a long way to temporarily holding hot items. (I have used multiple wraps of it to hold up mufflers till I could get a proper part). Just somethings to think about.
Some really great suggestions there, thanks. I will try and find a spot for a glue stick and some wire as those would definitely be handy additions. I have made quite a few changes to the kit since the video and it does now include some fishing line and a needle amongst many other things
Maybe you could add one of those gripper fabrics for jar lids.
Great call, I'll have a look for some space for one. Cheers
how does this guy have less then 1k subs? he obviesly put a lot of affort into this video
Very kind of you to say, I'm hoping to get some videos out soon which should hopefully push it over the 1k mark. Cheers
The tiny one metre Stanley measuring tape would easily replace that 10 cm ruler.
I unfortunately don't have the space for the tape measure due to its shape but it's definitely a good idea
Possibly on that Bic lighter you could wrap a foot or two of duck tape around it 👍🏼👍🏼
Hi there,
I have tried that before but unfortunately it's so tightly packed that it wouldn't close properly, I have since found a solution for duck tape which is wrapping it around a spool attached to the handle.
Cheers
A really well rounded kit! What's the tiny misc items tin from?? Neat form factor. (And - how did you get the lettering on it?)
Hi there, thanks very much. The little tin is off eBay and should come up if you search 'slide top tin', I added the lettering with an old vinyl cutting machine, similar to a cricut.
Cheers
Really great kit you have there. Thanks for sharing. What was originally in the tin before you adopted it for battery, drugs etc.? You are a bit quiet. Your video would benefit from turning the levels up a bit. I use Levelator for the Mac.
Hi there, the tin was actually bought specifically for this purpose, I picked it up off eBay for about £1.50, thanks very much for the suggestion about the video volume, I'll try and address this in future videos.
Great video. I hope you do some more videos.
Where is the case from that your WD40 and electrical tape from?
Thanks
Hi there,
The electrical tape setup is just two different types of insulation tape re-rolled onto a short piece of wooden dowel, the WD-40 bottle is actually a small supermarket sushi tray bottle which has been repurposed.
Cheers
well thought out kit, bro. quick question: what power bank did you use in this video?
Hi mate, unfortunately I bought it from my local hardware store a fair while ago and it doesn't have any branding on the case, I have seen similar things online under the brand 'Miady' though, hope that helps.
Very nice kit! Where did you find the utility knife / pry bar ?
Hi there,
I found it on eBay a fair while ago but they often go under the name 'Exceed Designs' so it's worth googling that
Cheers
10mm Ruler? That looks a little long for a 10mm 🧐👀
One tip: change this cheap zinc battery, and get alcaline one. Safer option and lasting longer as well.
Great tip thanks, I did recently replace it with a usb rechargeable one which has been great so far.
Cheers
What did you use to label the tin? And the other labels you had on there were intrigueing as well.
Hi there,
They're made on a Roland Stika vinyl cutter which I already owned, you can get similar results using clear labels on a label printer though.
Cheers
I Love To Have Three Mexpedition For My Mom And My Dad And Myself.
Nice setup. Do you have a link or brand name for the utility knife ?
Hi there, thanks very much, the utility knife is a titanium utility knife which is usually sold unbranded so you have to search for terms like 'mini titanium utility knife' on Google, it can often be found under a brand called Exceed design and is known as the TI-rant razor M. I am going to be investigating selling some myself and I will post a link to my website if I do so.
Cheers
2:40 in the back here as well we have some oversized Condoms for my big ass D 😂
Nice EDC tho I really enjoyed it but I want to recommend you to the Rolling Square inCharge Mini Charger Cable wich is basically every adapter you may need. Micro usb, usb c lightning USB A all packed in a really small formfactor I am really happy with mine. ✌🏻
Haha what can I say. Great suggestions with the mini cable, I'll check it out. Thanks.
The cork case is a great idea. How are you creating those neat labels please?
Hi there,
The labels are made with an old Roland Stika vinyl cutter that I already owned off eBay, you can get similar results with transparent labels from a label printer though.
@@carryco Thank you :)
Bonjour je besoin le cutter en titane
i like the small pencil - can you tell me the brand and maybe where to get it?
Hi there, the pencil is the Ohto Minimo and you should find it quite easily by googling it.
Cheers
Great vid! Insta-subbed. Do you have a link for the powerbank? Cheers
Hi there, thanks very much for your kind comments and sub. Unfortunately I bought the powerbank at my local hardware store in the clearance section and I haven't been able to find the same one since. Cheers
Great kit! Can I ask how you printed the letters on the various bits?
Hi there,
The letters are cut out of vinyl using an old Roland Vinyl cutter, it's similar to a Cricut.
Cheers
@@carryco Had no idea that was even a thing! Ace, thanks.
Great EDC! Where did you get that little bottle for the WD40?
Cheers mate, the little bottle is actually the little soy sauce from a supermarket sushi snack
Hello to you at carry co, just an idea for the micro kit, how about a pair of disposable gloves? Kind Regards Kevin, Leeds, U.K
Hi There,
Great suggestion, I'll try and fit some thin gloves into the kit because I could see them being handy.
Cheers
🖐🙂👍👍👍🛠👌
So many of these kits are nothing more than pocket jewelry for a lot of people with the fancy decorative pry bars and such a that’s are useless. At least this one has some knipex pliers which would actually be useful.
Where did you get the titanium utility knife I've been looking for one exactly like that
Hi there,
Sorry for the super late reply, I found this on I think eBay a while ago but they do often go by the name Exceed Designs TIrant M so it's worth searching that on Google.
Cheers
I'd Recommend a kitchen sink, put it in behind the power bank then it'll be complete!
Still working on getting that in, I'll keep you posted haha.
10mm ruler 😅 Good kit, lots in there, quite a few knives though?
Thanks very much, there is only the tiny little Spyder Co and the Utility knife, they do the job for my needs, I no longer carry the blade in the utility knife though due to UK law. Cheers
Give me a more video your video too high quality 😂😂
What's the brand and model for the titanium utility Knife? Please. :)
The titanium utility knife is usually sold unbranded so you have to search for terms like 'mini titanium utility knife' on Google, it can often be found under the brand TI-rant M.
Cheers
Any updates in 2023?
Subscribed.
I will be doing some new videos in due time and an update of this kit will be one of them, there's lots of new stuff to show. Cheers
What is the tin case you have used here ? Kindly share the link ?
There are many suppliers as it's quite a generic item but if you search: 'Slide top tin 10ml' it should come up straight away
You might want to rethink carrying that utility knife as plod will class it as either a fixed blade or lock knife and you will end up getting arrested.
Did he say a 10 mm ruler, instead of a CM?
The vocal fry is killin' me, couldn't finish the vid.
Your name's PlentyOBass, you should love it 😁
12:40 BRO COME ON MAN...
Very tiny gear. Did you consider adding 1st Aid?
Good suggestion but this is more of an urban kit and unfortunately doesn't have space for things like bandages.
Where did you get mech pencil Could you please send me a link Thanks
Hi there,
I think I bought it off eBay and the link is no longer available but if you search 'Ohto Minimo Pencil' on Google you'll find it.
Cheers
@@carryco found it thanks again
I wonder how many times you can say “ That’s what she said” throughout this video.
Thought bro just pulled a rubber out of his pouch 😂
What do u use to label your gear?!
Hi there,
I use a Roland vinyl cutter, similar to a Cricut.
Cheers
But how do you put this bulky pouch in your pocket?
No idea
Where is the battery pack from?
Hi there, unfortunately I bought it from my local hardware store a fair while ago and it doesn't have any branding on the case, I have seen similar things online under the brand 'Miady' though, hope that helps.
Where did you get your equipment from
Hello,
I've noted the majority of the items in the description but if there are any items that you like that aren't mentioned let me know and I can tell you what they're called.
Thanks
