    First video of 2024 and it won't be my last!
    We are gonna talk about edc gear!
    What's in my Pocket Everyday?
    I think like everyone of you, I’ve watched hundreds of EDCs, Pocket Dumps or What’s in my pockets videos but honestly….
    Very few convinced me, I have seen to many "toys" around and not something that could be really helpful in our daily life.
    Let’s talk about my humble idea of a realistic Urban EDC!

    Great video, FINALLY someone who uses gear in a way that makes sense, like using one knife only and not having 2 backpacks and 8 pouches. Also, that mini ceramic blade is very cool. Can you describe better how you proceeded to make it? Or link to a video, I couldnt find the channel you were referring to when talking about it. Thanks

    • @AlexWander
      @AlexWander  Před 3 měsíci +5

      Thanks man! Glad we agree on that!
      It's pretty simple, since these ceramic blades have edged on both sides, when you have one just take a piece of Gorilla Tape 1 cm width and wrap it around of one of the two edges . Doing so you won't cut yourself and you will save a new sharpen edge for future uses 🤙

    Hi. Great video. You and I think alike. Be aware, when using a tourniquet the distant (from the heart) part of the limb will go numb. If it's a leg, as soon as the blood flow stops, start making a crutch. Be ready to crawl. And keep up the great work!!!

In the extreme, I'm sure that I remember someone mentioning shorter intervals than this, from ResearchGate: :Old aspects recommend that tourniquet should be released in every 15-30 minutes intervals, but new studies show and current training books recommend that tourniquet can be used safely within two hours and a tourniquet should not be released unless the hemorrhage can be controlled surgically."

    Good video, I'm looking forward to watching more!
    I have carried a folding knife for self defense for years. It's for emergencies, so I don't use it for anything else. Side note: I also carry it on my support side, in case I need help defending my firearm, which is worn strong side. Consequently, I effectively don't usually have a blade for every day use. There are some Chinese knock offs of some spiderco blades that weigh next to nothing. Recently I've started carrying one of those as a beater knife that I don't feel bad about using for normal knife stuff.
    I also have the Hiker version of a Swiss Army Knife, it's a version with a Phillips head screw driver instead of a corkscrew. I couldn't find a comfortable way to carry it for a long time because I hate the way knives without pocket clips end up sideways at the bottom of your pocket. Then I found a small pocket clip that attaches to the D ring of the knife. It makes carrying a Swiss Army Knife a lot more comfortable on a daily bases. I have a heavy duty straight pin stuck in the hole made for that purpose, and a small fero rod that replaces the toothpick. The Hiker is only 2 layers, so it's very comfortable worn in jean pockets with the pocket clip. Somtimes I carry a 3 layer version (forget the name) which has a saw blade. For EDC, I think a SAK version of two, and no more than 3 layers, with scissors makes a lot of sense. But I love the screwdriver option. The awl is really useful for cutting the heavy plastic on clam packed items. I luckily had my SAK at recent party for my granddaughter. I was the only one there with a pocket knife, let alone a screwdriver. Thus I became the designated toy package opener and battery inserter. The tools are surprisingly functional and well made on legit Swiss Army Knives, which surprised me since I had a cheap copy of one when in Scouts. The knife blade is decent quality, but nothing special by today's standards set by super steels. But then it's also very easy to touch up or resharpen with an inexpensive whetstone. And the Hiker model costs less than $25!
    When I'm fishing, hunting, or in the woods, I really prefer a multi-tool with pliers and wire cutters. Leatherman tools seem to have very high quality metal files. But then we're talking something that's best worn on a belt sheath.
    I've been thinking of buying a belt with a hidden pocket built in to carry a little extra cash, a laminated copy of my driver's license, and a ceramic, single edged razor blade. The ceramic blade that I have has a metal backside like all single edged blades. So a metal detector would still find it, but the sharp part won't rust like regular blades eventually do. But you can buy several dozen regular blades for the same price, so that probably wasn't the best purchase I ever made. We had a ceramic paring knife recently break. I saved the blade thinking that I might use it, shorten it, or modify it somehow.
    I am almost always pretty close to my vehicle, even while working, so I have a lot of useful things in my vehicle that I don't feel the need to carry on my person. And I live in a Constitutional Carry State in the U.S. Knives are also unregulated, so blade length and locking features aren't restricted.
    If you are going to carry a note pad AND a plastic stabby thing, then IMO, a high quality metal or tactical pen seems more worthwhile, and more subtle.
    I have a lock picking set, but I'm not good enough to make carrying it worthwhile. I need to practice more, and at least have it in my vehicle.

      This is a true in depth sharing! I thank you so much for the time taken to write all of this! It seems that we are all in a constant trial and error kind a process but I think this what define us as a true passionate about "self reliance"
      By the way , I made my self defence tool that I called Mr. I DON’T KNOW made out of micarta because, tactical pens , kubotans and related stuff get you screwed in my country, I wanted something helpful but that cannot be recognized as a self defense tool by the police 🤷‍♂️ we cannot even carry a gun in our country 😁

    • @yellowdog762jb
      @yellowdog762jb Před 2 měsíci

      @@AlexWander Thanks for the compliment. I really can't imagine not being allowed to carry a firearm, a pocket knife, or even a pen. Tactically it might not be a sound decision, but it's legal in Texas to open carry a rifle or pistol. However, virtually everyone that carries does so concealed though. Knives are unregulated. The only places that you are likely to be mugged or assaulted are in big cities, where the corrupt district attorneys and judges let violent criminals come and go through a revolving door. Many of the city folks are bleeding heart liberals that the predators feed upon. Outside of the big cities, you don't have to work much.
      Luckily, we have something called the Castle Doctine in effect. If you are in your home or anywhere else where you have the legal right to be, you have the right to defend yourself if you are attacked. I'm not sure how any society thinks it is logically okay that law abiding citizens have to give way to criminals. If a criminal doesn't want to end up injured or dead, it's simple, don't attack other people. It's no different than deciding not to step out in front of a moving bus.
      I have thought some about what type of items one could legally carry on an airplane that would be effective self defense items. That's a discussion for a different, and more private forum. 😉
      Anyway, keep up the good work, your videos are very good!

    I have two layers on me as well. On person I carry the usual cellphone, wallet, keys and pocket knife and a firearm. Then in my smaller chest sling I’ll carry a multi tool, flashlight, notepad and pen, some bandaids, a tourniquet and quik clot gauze, a connectivity kit that can charge my phone to whatever is around plus a charging cable. That’s it. I keep it relatively as small as possible because the bigger the bag the more I’d carry and then it’d be heavy and I wouldn’t carry eventually. Took me awhile to narrow it down, but in most scenarios I’d be covered.

    • @AlexWander
      @AlexWander  Před 3 měsíci +2

      It took years for me too to narrow down all my set ups. It take time but it worths the effort. Your kit is well thought out and it covers most of our needs for sure! Bu the way , do you also carry the chest sling in a urban scenario or is it just for outdoors?

    • @Phlfwlr
      @Phlfwlr Před 3 měsíci +1

      @@AlexWander it’s actually primarily urban. I have a separate pack for outdoors with different tools better for those sorts of tasks. Not necessarily a “Bugout” bag, but it could be because I’ve always got certain things in there that I could use.

    As someone who carries multiple knives for work... you obviously missed that reason when you mention John Wick. I don't carry knives for self defense. I've never been in a fight much less a knife fight where there are no "winners". I'm sure I'm not the only one that does so either. I know many people like to carry a "beater" knife for rough work and a show knife for their own enjoyment.
    Working in retail, I've gotten into the habit of carrying a smaller less "offensive/scary" knife for when I was on a sales floor which also is handy for more controlled cuts... and a larger more robust knife for more serious cutting tasks like cutting down boxes with two or more layers of cardboard or cutting thicker plastic strapping. I tend to prefer wharncliffe or sheepsfoot style blades as the straight edge and forward facing point work well for push cuts and tip cuts. Though having a knife with "belly" is also occasionally knice as it works better for cutting pallet wrap as it gathers material during a long draw cut.
    I carry a swiss army knife as my multi-tool for the tasks its suited for and keep that blade in reserve primarily for food related tasks so I always have a clean blade.
    If I needed to carve on wood... I'd likely carry a scandi ground knife for that purpose. As it is... a flat or hollow ground knife work well for my smaller blade and my larger blade tends to be less thin behind the edge.
    Knives are one of mans oldest tools and have been specialized for a variety tasks. Having the right tool for the job you are doing makes work so much more enjoyable.

    • @AlexWander
      @AlexWander  Před 3 měsíci

      The John wick thing was clearly a joke 😊
      And I will never carry a knife for fighting purposes, I agree with you that there won't be any winner 👍 and actually it's something that works only in movies .
      I definelty understand and respect your idea of carrying multiple knives to have the best for every possible of work, but I.prefer to be "essential" and at least change the type of the knife I'm going to carry based on the environment and the activity I have to do, for instance I will never carry a carving knife if I'm going to the city and if I have to eat I can clean the blade I used to open the box an hour ago.
      The "what if" mentality is not for me ,most of the time this mentality leads to carry everything but the kitchen sink and I see that in so many videos, bushcraft gatherings, survival classes or travels I've been through. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts I really appreciated!
