As some of you may know, I tend very much towards the tactical side of the Everyday Carry (EDC) world. One of the reasons that I find EDC to be so fascinating is that there is a wide range of people. For example, the author of the excellent Everyday Commentary website finds that a Spyderco Tenacious, which I consider a mid-sized knife for EDC to be far to large for his uses. This is simply a difference of opinions. I like knives with blades over 3.75" and flashlights with a single-mode "forward clickly" switch. And there is that little part about packing a gun around. Others can't imagine themselves carrying a gun and prefer knives under 3 inches and twisty lights. Certainly an interesting world!
As a result of my ramble here, I am posting a poll on the sidebar asking about the purpose of the things you carry everyday!
