It's often difficult to choose items for your EDC Keychain (Every Day Carry) without creating an overly large keychain of gear. This often times results in the dreaded "Prepper Bulge". This video documents the items on my current EDC Keychain. I talk about each item in detail, perform a few demos and also discuss the concept of streamlining your keychain items in a compact method to compliment your other EDC items.
EDC KEYCHAIN ITEMS:
Foursevens Titanium Whistle
Kingston DT-SE9 16GB USB Flashdrive
Leatherman Brewzer
True Utility Nanolite
True Utility Cash Stash
TEC Accessories P-7 Suspension Clip

Oh my God. I died at the prepper bulge part. Made my day
The intro was great. I'm guilty of looking at prepping items on the net, too.
"Prepper Bulge" I died!! LMO
Hands down, "prepper" video of the year. If we had an awards show, this would win a "preppie".
I've fought the prepper bulge for years, often with mixed results. I'll be adding some of those items directly.
Well played sir... Well played.
Finally, someone who throws a little humor into edc/prepping videos. While these things can be serious topics I see no reason to take everything super serious all the time. Thanks for the funny.
Thanks. I try to have fun while creating these EDC/Prepping videos.
Is that a prepper bulge in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
You could replace the light and bottle opener with a Victorinox Midnite Manager, gaining a letter opener, scissors, pen, screwdriver and nail file in the process.
Manager the best
URB: Its been three years since I first watched this vid. It is still just as good as before, and timely. I still carry a AAA flashlight, car fob, Victorinox Cadet, and now a Hinderer copper piece for fun. Good to see you TT made another vid! Miss your stuff...
Haha... I still really love how the intro turned out.
My evil twin just watched the opening sequence and said "Is that a prep bulge in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" *grin*
Great video! All of them are great! You're by far the best as well as my favorite prepper channel on CZcams. I'm a teen on a budget but I've been putting together my EDC keys and backpack slowly but surely and I often find myself referring to your videos and your tips to build my own EDC. Thanks, keep up the great videos!
I used to carry a USB flash drive on my keychain until I left my entire keychain in a coworker's computer one day,.. Took me forever to figure that out.
The intro was lovely!
That is funny and a great video for EDC preppers!
Gotta say, of all the channels I subscribe to, yours is my favorite by far. Mainly because we have the same OCDs when it comes to prepping and organization, lol. A brother from another mother! Keep up the great work, and when I start my own channel I will give props to you since your vids will likely influence mine. Stay safe and keep on keeping on!
Wow! Thanks a bunch. I’m glad that you enjoy my channel. It’s always motivational for me to hear from folks who enjoy the videos that I create. It helps me keep going. It’s always nice to meet a fellow “OCD Prepper” too! While it drives my wife crazy, it does help with prepping organization. Please keep me posted on the status of your channel. Thanks again for the support.
Great setup, Cliff!! Really like that little Brewzer!
Great video. It's always fun to find a newer smaller replacement for something on my keys.
My EDC Keychain is my next project in my preps, this video helped a lot, thanks. And yeah the beginning is hilarious haha. Keep up the good work.
bought the True Utility Cash Stash for my daily medication after watching this. It's perfect for holding a few days worth so I don't ever have to worry about being with out.
Bethany Briggs I agree. It makes a great mini pill stash.
The opening of this vid had me rolling good job !
I've ordered a few bits and peices for my keychain. The Telepen and the Cash-Stash arrived today.
I've used the Cash-Stash to put a couple of paracetamol in (I get migraines, but if I catch them early they aren't nearly as bad as if they are left to develop) and the telepen for... do I really need to explain?
I was a little disappointed with the telepen. The pen part (refill) was slightly too small for the cavity it filled. This meant that when you pressed to write, the nib would retract a little. I fixed this by folding a piece of cellophane from a cigarette packet and putting it in the tube to pack it. Works perfectly now.
I also checked out the pocket clip but could not bring myself to pay so much for so little. One of the items ordered was the Thrunite Ti3. I intend to clip that to my pocket and have the other items hang from it. Hopefully this works well so that I can kill two birds with one stone.
I'm so glad you have that Kingston data traveller. Me too! Although it seems to sometimes disconnect if I move it slightly.
I have the brewzer included in my key organizer. I think it is a bit short but I must get warm with it.
i like the use of your cashstash. as someone who suffers from irritable bowl syndrome, having some Imodium with you on all times is a must.
Prepper bulge! Oh dear, I was guilty of that until recently. I've slimmed down my keyring carry items, and it's ended up similar to yours. Now I have:
A Timberline +B tool, bottle opener, prying, small blade.
Energiser Keyring LED torch.
Stainless steel whistle (I have four dogs, I can run out of whistle if I have to do it)
Also, on one of my door keys, I have the True Utility Key Tool, mostly for the tweezers. but it does help differentiate between the two brass Yale keys I have on there.
I've also removed all the individual rings, and now favour the VKTech wire keychain loops, as they aren't rigid (helps with that bunching problem) and it's very simple to add or remove items. I have one loop for tools, and one for keys, with a little dog clip joining them, so I can separate them, which makes unlocking doors easier. I have a 'Remove Before Flight' tab to help pull it all from my pocket, no clip,.. yet I'll look into that.
The old small multitool I used to have on my keychain is now clipped to the karabiner in my walking jacket pocket, alongside another brighter single 'AA' torch.
Great Setup as always.
Great vid...thumbs to the intro and end theme!
Lmao the intro was pretty funny
I have the same suspension clip, I use a metal chain for it though as the thread it came with broke.
Another very nicely done video, Thanks
The beginning was HYSTERICAL!!! The rest was very informative...and expensive!
I would recommend the nite ize S-biner with the built in bottle opener
I also have the Veleno Designs Quantum DD is nice with mini usb recharger.
My keychain is a NiteIze #2 A-line with my truck key, house key, and the indispensable Victorinox Signature Lite (flashlight, pen, knife, file/screwdriver). I keep the whistle, bottle opener, and tweezers on a separate keychain in my EDC backpack, but they're also on a S-biner for easy attachment should I decide to go bulky.
Congrats on 200 vids
As I mentioned when we had lunch last week, the telescoping pen was the first thing I bought for my keychain when I started intentionally gathering EDC gear. I've noticed, however, that it has a tendency to slide open a bit in my pocket. Was wondering if you'd noticed it, or if I've got a flawed one (given the fact I spent $10 on it I wouldn't be surprised if it was the latter).
Great video! I was looking at the true utility website and it all seems like really good quality for a good price. By the looks of it most of the stuff is around $10-$12 and it all comes in a waterproof box that is probably worth half of it.
Great video mate, thanks for sharing.
Fabulous! I've watched a lot of your videos and they're brilliant every time, but this one made me laugh out loud!!
Awesome!!! You've inspired me to post mine now.
Oh, man, I was in hysterics during the intro.
I'm pretty sure I just woke up my roommates with laughter. Awesome!
Great key chain items will get a few for myself Thanks
True Utility are based here in the UK but manufacture is outsourced to China, presumably different factories, and I've found their products can vary in quality and utility. I didn't like the 2 older multitools I bought, the Cliptool which I lost within a couple of days, and another one which I keep in a kitchen drawer, the tool selection is pretty poor although the pliers are okay. The Telepen I had on my keychain broke after a couple of months, the pen refill got jammed inside. However I am very happy with the peanut lighter (Firestash) and it lives on my keychain, with my keys and, well, nothing else, to avoid prepper bulge. I keep my Leatherman Squirt PS4, olight e3eos and a small Clipper lighter in my fifth pocket where they fit snugly. I always carry another knife - must be a slipjoint with a blade under 3 inches to be legal EDC here - whether that be a SAK on a separate carabiner, suspended from a belt loop in a back pocket - or a dedicated (non-locking) folder with a pocket clip, at the moment I favour my Manly Wasp , or Bokerplus Atlas if I want to go ultra-slim.
Awesome video. Thank you!
two things i love, keypad doorlocks and the key ring app for my phone! no more house keys or hsoppers club card in my wallet or on my keychain.
Hahaha that was the best intro! I have so many gadgets too.
Good stuff as always!!
The invention of Prepper Porn. I've been online since the early 90's... long time since the net has surprised me.
* tips an imaginary hat *
After watching this video I put everything you had on my keychain and took everything you didn’t have off I even use the cash stash for the same purpose
I love this intro I couldn't stop laughing. Great work man.
My key chain was getting totally obnoxious. I've had to cut it down. Great video.
love the videos man
legit thought i'd clicked onto wrong video at the start. I was thinking what the chuff is going on here! ... glad i stuck it out
I have the kingston 16gb drive aswell and the Foursevens whistle and the thumblite!
Lol keychain buddies!
I still use the swisstech utility with the blade as a backup to my leatherman.
You are the Queen of Compact EDC Keychains! :)

@urbanprepper
May I recommend the utili-key by Swiss gear. It has a bottle opener function along with two different knife blades (I'm sure you could file them down for security) it also has a Philips and flathead screwdriver I have one and would probably choose it over the leather man bruiser. Just a friendly suggestion and best of luck in your future preps.
Ditto dude. I've got one two, it works great, ultra compact, and no one thinks you've got a knife with you. I'm not sure I would call it a "knife" though... It's a tad small. The only downsides the bottle opener. Jeez, that thing is impossible.
*too
Hi there. Thx for the vid. My EDC keying is similar. Only difference is the "cash stash" usage. I have one for cash (as foreseen); a note of €10 is fine. Though, I find your approach for medication EDC VERY resourceful. I will adopt it by getting a second "c/s". Let me add a suggestion to play safer: to jot down the expiration dates in a tinny piece of paper and stash this in as well. It can be as tinny as can be, so long one can scribble the data and simply stash in/out with the tweezers of a Swiss Army Knife. Cheers! George.
Thanks for this video. I'm going to buy some of these items... Cheers
Dave P Sweet! Thanks for watching.
Found out the UW sells a LOT of True Utility gear so picked up one of the telescoping pens. The nanolight is pretty high up on my list too.
Ended up getting the Tiny Torch. Its got two LEDs, has a push button instead of twist power switch, and uses a standard size battery (they're still little pill like things, but they're bigger than the ones the nano uses and I'd imagine they're easier to find).

I use Amazon all the time, even have a prime membership, but I still enjoy shopping brick and mortar when I can.
That damn intro got me. Good stuff.
Haha. Thanks. :)
Nice video but When are you going to update your keychain? I'd like to see a new version. Greetings.
Love the beginning: "Gear porn."
+Adam Seltzer Haha. It was certainly fun to film.
what do you think about the key smart utility that condenses your keys themselves? it really helps the buldge
The 'prepper bulge' intro is hilarious!
What password protection program do you currently recommend for a usb drive?
Sandisk just released a 128 GB microSD card. You may want to check out the Klarus Mi 10 mini flashlight. Its tiny but packs 85 lumens. Or the Klarus MiX6 titanium that takes AAAA battery.
My whistle of choise for a few decades is the London Bobby Whistle from Lands End when they carried them one summer. Carry the whistle with the P.O. key for checking the mail. The only downside id that is not Ti (the budget, the budget) !

Last comment I swear XD.
Ever think of replacing that bulky key fob?
I would have to double check but I believe their are fobs which are much smaller and can copy the signal given off by your current fob.
Better yet Smartphone app and a remote device on your car?
Great intro :D!
Well done sir
A heavy keychain is supposed to be hard on the vehicle ignition. That worries me a bit with my setup although it's not that bad for weight.
awesome sense of humor
I made a suspension clip out of an old spoon. Free and easy diy project.
Hi Cliff,
Check out the Keyport Slide. I think you will like it for all your keys...
I use the Victorinox XAVT as my keychain EDC.
Nice. I need to check that one out.
Excellent review, very impressed. Im assuming its also pretty airplane safe?
Beginning with the music, so cute. Made me laugh.
Omg lol that intro was great.
+Andrew Allison It was a blast to film. :)
What that pen looking thing @ 9:57? Looking like some kind of keychain baton?
My key chain is really minimalistic, only 5 keys, an ornament and a bottle opener. Might add the whistle and change to this bottle opener. The others I feel like they are an overkill for me...
Hey, did you ever make that keychain flashlight video. I looked but couldent find it. i understand if it wasnt a priority. Do you still use the same one? We do value your opinion. :) thanks for everything
Hello
Very nice perception, there are so many types of Survival Keychain, thank you :)

I'm puzzled about the usb drive. If we ever get in a situation where we need these things to save our life, what good will it do? Even if it will do some good, what if we have to get wet to escape an emergency. Will it still work after you dry it out?
In a situation such as TEOTWAWKI or the zombie apocalypse, sure, the usb drive won't help. nor will it filter spring water for contaminants. but, barring that, considering the ubiquity of computers in present society, a USB that has essential docs is very smart.
Still too much "stuff" with the keys. I keep Victorinox sd and Energizer push button light on a separate carabiner on my purse strap for quick access. Other "stuff" (larger knife etc) stays in my purse. I have had a whistle for work for 15 years, only used it once and no one responded to it. They are a complete waste except for camping.
Its best to keep your EDC chain gadgets on a separate carabineer from your car keys. Let alone the noise it makes when your driving with it.
Thanks for creeping me out LOL (save it for Mrs urban prepper haha)
I see you still have the thumblite I recommended :D
But it seems you mounted it incorrectly :) You need to offset the light so the bulb clears the edge of the key and you get double the lighted area.
Well regardless the TrueUtility one seems even better, i'll have to look into it.
Of course! I have it on the other set of keys currently. Thanks again for the recommendation on "Your Bulky Keychain". :)
LOL you remembered :D
I hate it when my mom walks in on me watching EDC rated videos on my computer.
i love it
The beginning is the funniest prepper vid I've ever seen! BRILLIANT!! I posted a link to this video at my EDC/Survival/Bushcraft Twitter feed @bcrafttips Keep up the good work!
Thanks a bunch! I'm glad you enjoyed it. The Bloopers will be featured next January.
I still gave this vid a thumbs up considering u r wearing a Seahawks color survival bracelet
GO NINERS!!!
Soooo funny!!!!!
Good gear selection
In Seattle?
I use KeySmart. It is super sleek and no jingling.
I only have a whistle and a photon light on my keychain.
OMGosh!! The dreaded "prepper bulge"!! LOLOLOL!!!
My Brewzer just got here today
Great Video
I'd love to get the TEC Accessories P-7 Suspension Clip but it is $15.48 including tax and shipping. What about this alternative on ebay? Tandy Leather Small Holster Black Belt Clip There are a number of sellers. It is slighter larger than the P-7 ( 11mm x 2 3/4" not 7mm x 1.53") but is only $4.78 including shipping.
I'll be sure to check it out. It's always good to have various options with similar capabilities. Thanks!
AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ... XD thanks! Brewzer is also a great box opener / digger thingy with the pointed nib at the end. Don't have to try a bunch of keys to find a sharp one anymore.
Next video: "EDC Flashdrive e-Document/Data Necessities."
"Prepper bulge" comment reminded me of Cabin In the Woods and the "husband's bulge!"
I have a prepper bulge and I carry it proudly.
Still, excellent video.
