Edc system

Time of day, weather, destination, mode of transportation and travel companions all add or subtract items from what I carry. I really load up in the winter where it's cold here and offers a ton of extra pockets. In shorts & T-shirt it's tough to conceal much but I don't have to conceal anything at home.
 
Front R pocket: Benchmade 940 or Spyderco Delica 4, Victorinox Cadet or Leatherman S2
Front L pocket: Keys, Chapstick (don't go without it)
Back R pocket: Hanky
Back L pocket: Wallet
 
frp: burger lexk, keys, spare change
rrp: large tanto sebenza, wallet
lfp: cell phone [Droid Incredible]
lrp: usually where i stash folded papers and what not
fifth pocket: lucky 50 cent piece, zippo
 
Usually carry a Kershaw Leek but today I have a Rat1 in my left pocket and an CRKT M16 03Z in my right
 
Had to catch a ride to court today so it was light and simple, moneyclip wallet, cellphone, and a case sbj for support though it had to wait in the car until i came backout. Usually though its:
RFP- Keys, change and a small medium size folder normally a sak
LFP- Cellphone (droid eris verizon) in an otterbox case
Right cargo pocket- moneyclip wallet ( if Im wearing jeans this shifts to LFP)
On my belt horizontal has been riding a 110 and hopefully soon a wave

when I get a wave I plan on swapping the sak with a case peanut which I also hope to get
this would be my ideal set up for a normal edc
 
My general approach is to carry the smallest items with the most utility. But some times that flies out the window because its just more fun to carry a big, honkin' Supertool 300 than Swisstool Spirit or LM Juice.

Here is one iteration where "smallest possible" has flown out the window.

This one is back to "smallest possible" - smaller gun, knife, light and multitool/SAK:

My Keychain, SAK Rambler, 4Sevens Mini CR2, TI Peanut Lighter, TI Whistle, And some larger Blade, Depends on the mood I'll also have a smaller traditional Knife. And My Wallet etc..., If I am working I usually have a briefcase with me so I have some more stuff, but this or similar is always with me.

Open drawer. Think about what I have on and what I'll be doing. Grab knife. Stick it in the drawer at night. Repeat next day.
 
Well, I went fishing today, so this was my system.
Front R: Benchmade 551 SBKSN, $2.12 in change, Lighter
Front L: COBY MP3 player/camera, Blistex Chap Stick
Back R: Black wallet with $30 in it
Back L: N/A
IWB: CRKT Stiff KISS
Neck: Benchmade 5 hook
Wrist: Croton Aquamatic II watch
My usual system is something like this and does differentiate between knives.
Knives that usually go in the Front L pocket are: CRKT Apache II, Buck Metro, S&W Extreme Ops, Kershaw Scallion (Just one, not all)

Sometimes I take my quark tactical instead of the surefires. The small sebenza has since been replaced with a sanrenmu 710.
