New subscriber here, just discovering this whole EDC thing at age 46! (I just thought it was "crap I need every day" ) But you convinced me to add a pocket flashlight and it's bern so much better than digging through the glove box every time! Thanx
Yeah! I was given a flashlight to use at work for an Apple Store, and I realized I used the little thumb light all the time. After I left for a new job, I knew I had to have my own! I use it more than my pocketknife
Good things about having matching theme EDC is that if you ever lose them at workplace, it`s easy to determine the owner. So maybe colleague that knows your favorite theme might find them and hand them to you. Also it really works when you`re in a workshop and everyone has their tools all over the place and it`s hard telling which belongs to who.
I generally carry my watch and wallet keychain with Leatherman 10 a pry bar attached and some form of pocket blade I have a few all small folders to comply with UK law sometimes I add a pen.
I use to have terrible luck with omega springs. I highly suggest making your own omega springs. I started making my own omega springs and it was a great choice. I bought thicker memory wire (not too thick). And formed it myself. The thicker wire is more durable plus it holds the blade in the close position better.
I’m just learning about all of this and I choose you and your channel for help. A lot of it is beyond me but the best way to learn is to jump in. Thanks 👍
I love your videos. I like looking at all the same stuff over and over again in different configurations different uses and so on. My only thing that I want your channel to do is branch out to more items. I have a knack for needing different kit. Such as backpacks shoes/boots hats and other gear Necessary for day-to-day use just a idea for you to expand your channel that I love so much and binge watch the shit out of!!! Keep it real like always and stay classy Taylor!
I have 2 Benchmades, a 940 and a Bugout. And BOTH have broken omega springs. The Bugout was first. It was the first of the two that I bought. But within a week of it messing up, my 940 did the exact same thing. The problem is that I’ve customized the Bugout so sending it back to Benchmade is probably out. But I have a set of new springs headed my way so I guess I will attempt to replace it myself. The 940 is stock though so I’m leaning towards just sending it in for a spa treatment at BM. Anyways, hurry up with that video! I’ll be looking for it. Haha. Thanks brother.
The Pen Rotring is german for red ring... So it is pronounced as the german Rot (red) and Ring together... (maybe google translater or something has a speak function)
4:33 you can't beat the price of a Hubs Hank. Jared is an amazing guy I have probably 6 of his Hanks that I EDC! Taylor, if you're interested I can probably get him to make you a "Best Damn EDC" Hank.
Thanks for the feature Taylor! I’ve got a video idea for you that I can’t seem to find on RU-vid. I’m trying to figure out what pen insert is the best for my edc pens but I can’t seem to find anything on RU-vid or the internet on which ones write the best. I think would an interesting video to see different pen inserts compared. Just an idea, thanks man!
If a $500 Chris Reeve knife is relatively common knife to see on Best Damn EDC, then $150-200 is mid-range. $200 is NOT out of line to pay for a Spyderco Benchmade etc. You've been playing with those low budget, $50-100 pocket carries too much.
Great variety today. Bring on the omega spring tutorial. Just Ano'd an old mint Boker Rexford dark brown and old bronze. Started anodizing a year ago and am addicted. Now after seeing your Sebenza, I have to my my small Seb. The bead - blasted titanium takes on color more richly than the high polished I find. Got some 4mm ti plate from Flea-Bay that will be turning into my first attempt at prybars and key dangers. When's the next shop mod vid?👍
Listen, I’m a knife guy but I can’t get around to spending that much money on a knife. Even spending 160 for my para 3 hurt my soul. I would just get a benchmade or a spyderco instead
its hilarious that was your first knife of inspiration mine was the Gerber 06 Drop Point the Anniversary addition with the USA Flag on it and in OD Green!!! love this knife lol nowadays id do some sketchy shit to get my hands on a Microtech OTF I would invest a lot of money to customize it as well. but that is a grail knife so someday maybe lol
hey, just saying how about making the format from top down photo to pocket dump. how people actually carry there gear is i think where rubber meets the road. I am really interested in knowing how can people carry all there necessary edc gear without voilating the rules of fashion too much. Give this idea a try, i think that will be fun.
Depends on your usage needs if your mostly doing around town and opening things at house delica is.perfect without bulk. But if you camp or use for food prep or law enforcement military type needs endura just for that extra bit of blade and handle leverage
2am, can't sleep after shoulder surgery. SO, sitting here watching TM. Man, I need to get a life, but the vids are still really good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watching today, GORGEOUS CHARLOTTE DAY #cltkidsfest. Carried my Bonescraper, Dagger of Dolus the Sigil MK6, Klarus Ti AA flashlight and my brasswerx copper Farmer. Good day in the hood!
It would be cool if I didn't have to flick through unrelated the intro. Putting your updates to your regular subscribers at the end will get you more subscribers, I just close the video when people don't get into it straight away, aint got time for that.
@@BestDamnEDC Hey mate I was just giving you some input. Every time I've commented on your videos you've been a total dick in response to my respectful comments. How about instead of being defensive and taking it personally you actually take on constructive criticism like a man instead of having a sook everytime someone says something you don't like.
Glad to be featured, you need to get a plethiros in hand and feel that humpback whale lock in like it’s made just for you😉 get in touch with Jared at @hubshanks on insta or Facebook and I bet he could hook you up with a super nice microfiber hank. He’s an awesome guy to deal with and the quality is out of this world for the price
The guy carrying bourbon around everyday is... redic. Nice video, interesting to see what people carry around everyday, even when it's just showing off.
So what’s up with the discord these days? Is it still up and running? I joined but nothing seems to be working. When I go to my other discord servers, they’re working great. Any help?
You should do that with other RU-vidrs. I can NOT tell u how many times it pisses me off watching either randomfrankp or uravgconsumer pull out a gas station quality knife to do an unboxing review... lol a black and red dragon karambit really? lol
um, use one of your knives to make the handkerchief smaller....then find someone with skills and will to hem it, either by sewing,gluing or bonding. We EDC guys are such 1st world consumers! Lets get more into MAKING..producing!
No way #4 carries all that shit with him every day. Guitar, 2 bottles of liquor, and an axe blade? Come on..this is supposed to be for EDC's not what your desk carries.
@@warlantactical yeah it almost seems like a photograph competition these days. Realism and practicality are passed over by people with 2k$ in fancy gear and pretty pictures. I was part of the airforces special engineer group called red horse. what I was able to carry in my pockets was my edc. I wonder how often someone with titanium this and that gets to use that gear like a tool instead of an ornament...like oh...that's a nice 200$ handkerchief you have there...can it wipe sweat better than this 1$ Hank I bought at Walmart.. I can find plenty of pretty edc pictures on Pinterest and Reddit. I like pics with uniqueness and good ideas, I don't care for showoff's.
I think I'm gonna unsubscribe this channel. It makes me sad. Last week i lost all my money i saved for my leather squirt to an online spamming. And this channel keeps showing lovely edc everyday. Anyways love from india ❤️. Great videos!
chris hanson Five Guys has better burgers on average. Overpriced? Yeah, a little bit. Better than Shake and Steak? Hell yes. So much better XD (Yeah I sad Shake and Steak. Fight me.) Edit: WAIT IS THIS CHRIS HANSON?! DON’T CALL THE COPS ON ME. I SWEAR I DIDN’T KNOW!!
I have 1 GEC #85 "Beaver Tail" Slipjoint (Jigged Brazilian Cherry Wood Scales) new in tube - never used, carried, or sharpened for sale - great 2nd pocket carry. check my video & leave comment if interested
