The diffuser is great for camping. Use a carabiner to hang it somewhere inside your tent and it gives you great light to read by. You can also hang it from the zipper pull of a jacket or off of a necklace to light up the immediate area in front of you, which can be really helpful for camping over a cookstove or playing cards at a picnic table.

@Davejkn 5 лет назад

a good way to keep your budget down is to broaden your search beyond specifically EDC items - often you pay extra for something just because it's 'EDC' and you can find comparable items for less if you look further afield from the usual stuff.. a few alternate suggestions - the stainless steel Parker Vector ballpoint comes in black and looks cooler that the Jotter and there's the stainless Pentel Energel, Seiko's Pulsar range of budget watches are good. There are excellent knives that never seem to make it to the EDC sector, some of the european makes are really good value - there's more to euro knives than just Opinel...

@john90rutledge 5 лет назад

The Parker Jotter is the pen you needed for this EDC.

@travisprince1701 4 года назад

I wear that Timex expedition everyday at work and love it! Fantastic watch for everyday, and I typically wear divers. It’s a Timex, so you know that the movement is solid and will keep great time, mine has been on the same battery for over four years now and still keeps highly accurate time, within milliseconds. Also on the subject of the lume, the watch does have indoglo, which is handy at times and lights up the whole face, but the watch does have lumes on the numerals and hands. The trick with the lumes is that it really has to be completely dark, and the watch needs to “charge” in the sun to produce the lume, and then the lume doesn’t last all that long. But before I get to far into the rabbit hole, I love this watch, dirt cheap and tough as nails! I’ve since replaced the band with an older Timex expedition leather band because I wasn’t too keen on the green nato. My only gripe is that sometimes when I pop gloves off they’ll catch the crown and pull it out, I’ve since worked around it by changing my technique for pulling gloves but whenever I’m swapping pairs several times over in a transport (I work on an ambulance and will occasionally go through several pairs of gloves in a short time) I’ll occasionally still catch it. Other than that, I’m absolutely in love with the watch!

@alextsukada4013 5 лет назад

Never thought of an opinel that’s pretty good.

@zBMatt 5 лет назад

Bryan Stone only thing with the opinel is that while it’s a super good knife, for edc people want things to be convenient, most knives that fit in this category aren’t double hand opened. Second thing about opinel is that in the rain, the handle swells making the blade hard to get out. And the third thing is that the blade isn’t thick, so for some edc tasks it may bend.

@longbob9545 3 года назад

the opinel is a good blade my little bro carries one, but like zb matt says it has alot of draw backs for a EDC blade that can be fixed by spending 12 or 18 bucks more

@jinde75 2 года назад

I've bought 2 Cutjacks for gifts and have been wanting one for myself, but always end up buying something else. Kinda like the Mora that's been in my Save For Later for years. When I saw the Cutjack drop down from $43 to $29 and available in OD green, well, that's the definition of a split second! The action gets better with use and I finally got the clip adjusted so I don't need two hands to get it out of my pocket anymore. Really enjoy it in my rotation. I think it is just perfect for a $100ish EDC.

@MrHeavyMetalRocker1 5 лет назад

Back when I was in high school I used to go to my buddies and hang out while he and his friends were smoking out on the back porch. They always complained about the lack of light because turning on the porch light was to bright and would wake his parents. So I had a thrunite t10 with a diffuser so I would stand that up on the table so we could see what we were doing. So that’s basically the one and only use for a diffuser lol.

@brandonkoh8361 3 года назад

Pretty sure the diffuser is in case you need light around your camp but you need both your hands. You can just put the diffuser on and enough lighter gets scattered for you to be able to use it, especially within a tent, without pointing it around.

@DefMunkyYT 4 года назад

For a pen I just want something that writes smoothly and cleanly with no clumps or skips... I could care less how it looks. So far I've been loving the Uniball Signo 307. Writes very well, is light, and is cheap so if it gets lost, broken, or someone takes it, it's no big loss. In a 9 pack on Amazon they're a little over $1 a pen. I also carry a mechanical drafting pencil with retractable tip (to prevent tip damage). It's a bit more expensive, but still both pen and pencil are around $10. I got the pencil as I hate how Fisher space pens write and the pencil can still write on a waterproof notebook when the paper is wet. If you're not as picky as me concerning how well your pens write, just get a Fisher space pen of some sort. They'll write no matter what, just not very cleanly or smoothly. lol

@yogililly1 5 лет назад

I would add a 7th item... A lighter. I would choose the SS Parker Jotter most days in budget EDC. For me, a reasonable cost is $250 add cash as an 8th item for EDC of $20-$60 means leaving the house every day with $300 worth of tools to function with. A possible list includes a Citizen solar field watch such as BM8180, a D2 knife likely R2D2 but other under $45, Sharpie Ultra Fine, Zippo with Thunderbird insert, Nitecore Tip or MecArmy SNG3 ($30) for USB recharge, etc. For most of life the rule of thumb for many EDC items is not more than 2 hours gross. Depending on ones income determines what is budget... A retail worker ($10-$12) versus a nurse ($30+) is a big difference when looking at 2 hours gross, then consider position that are 6 or 7 figures where $500+ knifes or $5000+ watches are budget for that income. National US average around $25 per hour or $50k per year. Many are above or below this mark. But at average... 2 hours gross is $50. If took 8 items (including cash) assigned at $50 average is $400 budget. For me 10% is cash thus have $360 to spend for 7 items. Someone at $12 per hour would have starting fund of $192 and may choose to keep $20 in cash.

"Best Wallets: Price Point Edition," 10, 30, 50, 100 dollars etc. Rinse repeat for lights, pens, etc., so people can mix and match based on what they are willing to spend for that item and they get quick access to your experience.

5:52 I have a rechargeable flashlight that looks exactly like the one in the middle from Amazon and I'm totally satisfied with it. I don't carry it with me every day but I take it with me if I'm camping.

The Thrunite T10 is a pretty solid flashlight for its price point so it might be worth picking up at some point. It makes its way into my carry frequently enough. You aren’t really missing much on the Zebra X-701 it writes descent enough but feels a little cheap and the anodizing chips off like nobody’s business.

Love these videos. Maybe you can try other places instead of Amazon. Like going to Walmart or other stores with a budget. Also, the student edc idea with a focus on pens and notepads is a good idea.

I don't agree with your list of : 1)Watch 2)Pen 3)Key org 4)Flashlight 5)Wallet 6)Knife The swappable components for different activities and price range should be: 1)Watch (Best is OTS at $16 on Amazon) 2)Self Defense: Non-lethal (Pepper Spray, Stun Gun, Blackjack or Sap glove/Brass Aluminum knuckle duster) 3)Tool: Multi-tool/Knife/Swiss Army 4)Flashlight: Olight, Streamlight, or lumintops are a good choice depending on what you use it for. 5)Key Chain Item: Pry bar, box cutter, 6)Specialty Item according to the environment: Survival pouch for the outdoors/Window breaker pen for long drives/etc. I rarely change out my Wallet and Keychain and these items are not mission-specific depending if I am at the office or on the job site, or at a dress event. A pen for Dress or work can go in the Specialty item section. I think if you break it down this way it will be less disappointing in the results because you don't need to have a new item for these three other categories. A standard basic essential Wallet Keychain and Pen can free up your overall choice selection. Just a thought.

Good job staying under budget. The Parker is a good choice because of the versatility of the ink cartridge. Nice watch if going analog. If going digital then I would say Casio. Lots of good choices for a knife but a multitool tool might have been more practical. Nice key ring! A leather minimal wallet would have been a little classier.

I'd love to see another video like this but set a price limit per item. $50 or $100 at once is rather affordable but i feel like $20-$30 per item someone on a budget would be able to buy 1 item every paycheck, ot would take a little longer to get a complete EDC but you'd probably have better gear in the end

The Fisher space pen refills will fit the Parker Jotter. Have been doing this for years.

@pisanglaut7950 5 лет назад

Man, I always amazed when you flick the knife. Maybe you can make a video on how you flick your knife.

@sayeednmb 5 лет назад

Great video. You should think of doing a budget EDC with a box cutter and multi tool.

I've tallied mine up and sometimes, on a given day, it's over $2,000.

I imagine the diffuser being employed in settings such as a movie theaters, where light is less than desired. Olight has the 1/2 lumen setting I believe that is designed for that very thing.

@hechla 5 лет назад

the 1/2 lumen setting is used by the military to see maps ect without giving away your position.

There is a zebra telescoping pen that is excellent for $6 ish. Sometimes they come in 2paks.

The small Hatori flashlights are perfect for pocket carry and you get 4 for 20 bucks.

Enjoy the exercise of budgeting but my mind says spend what is needed. This video made me look at what I'm carrying right now. About $700. Always have a quality watch, wallet and knife. You get what you pay for.
