Just some stuff...

That's the name of the color of my pants, but it sounds like a euphemism for sh**ing yourself in combat...

Enzo Necker Kit Commercial kydex sheath for the Enzo Necker modified with some paracord that servers as a belt loop as well as fixation for fire steel. Several strips of bike tubing fix a whistle and a small dog tag mirror with a SOLAS patch. Still experimenting…

Failed keychain options. I like to keep the car key and work related keys separate from my “real” keychain with knive, lamp etc. So I tried severaI options for this second setup, but apparently both the S-Biner as well as those flexible steel rings can’t take my abuse (I occasionally play around with this keychain in my pocket, especially at work). The S-Biner failed me first, because the spring eventually gave up after the constant fumbling, and I lost keys on several occasions. Then I went through two steel cables, both of them first fraying and eventually breaking… Now I just use a small length of Technora cord tied to a loop, and after about a year or so it still hasn’t failed. Really strong stuff…

I see a lot of posts here on tumblr and everywhere else that say something like “my EDC today”. And often this will make up a whole blog by one and the same person, every picture with different knives, flash lights, key rings etc. Maybe I don’t get it, but doesn’t the term “Every Day Carry” imply that you Carry something Every Day? To me this would mean the same exact items, being carried every day. Everything else feels like fashion choices, like trying to match colors or something. But maybe I don’t get it…

Although I love my Photon Freedom Micro, I have to say that I'm starting to get a little frustrated: A while ago one of them ran out of power, and when I changed the batteries, it just wouldn't turn off. Constant glowing on full brightness, no way to stop it unless you take the batteries out. Ok, so I ordered a new one and put the "broken" one aside. From time to time I put the batteries back in, but still no luck. But then, after weeks or months just lying there, all of a sudden it worked perfectly fine with a battery inside. Whatever. But now the exact same thing happened with the new one. Am I crazy, or is this weird? Anyone else familiar with those problems?

Lanyard for my SHARD (knock-off?), with one of the connectors, some tubing and thin paracord-like, well, cord.

Got a sh*tload of break away connectors from ebay for some lanyard work...

Mini Personal Care Kit A while ago my Coghlan’s All Weather Wallet fell apart and left me with the two indivudual pouches. Those make great containers for mini kits which I carry in my shirt pocket on longer walks /day hikes or sometimes even in my suit jacket when the need arises. You can cram quite some stuff in there, e.g. assorted band aids and alcohol wipes for small wounds or blisters, wet wipes and tissues, duct tape, cash…, and everything can be carried more or less water proof.

Pulled out my SQUIRT PS4 from the key chain this morning and found the spring of the scissors to be broken off. Very disappointing after only modest use every other week…

Tubes similar to those available at Law Industries, but with the lid connected to prevent loss. I use them to hold single uses of povidon iodine for my first aid kits.
