Man I use a sharpie every day weather its to mark my name on a soda in the frig at work or to label a tag on a bad piece of equipment. A sharpie has a number of things it can label through out my day.

Benchmade 520 (arrived yesterday, got it when I came home from work; carrying it today because it's new and it's neat, albeit a little large/heavy for the pockets in my slacks),
Benchmade 440 (great little office knife, S30V blade, looks classy, doesn't scare the sheeple so much),
Victorinox Climber (in my briefcase)

Debates
I also have a Kahr PM9 but doubt I'll CCW again... I don't really feel the "need" anymore, the area I live in is quite safe, and I still very much doubt I could draw and fire faster than I could close the distance with a wave-opening knife.

I'm torn between a PDA or the notepad. I need to do appointments (which I use the cell phone for), shopping lists, and todos. The notepad is lighter, more comfortable, flexes, and is faster to use than a PDA. But the PDA is cooler.

I still can't decide on a knife either. I just grab one (or two) depending on mood I guess.

The HDS light is nicer after dark than the Peak AAA, but the Peak is impressively bright and with DST now there's not much need atm.

I wear the Timex most of the time; the Luminox looks pretty but I've lost so much weight it doesn't fit anymore, and until I either lose more weight or fatten back up sizing the band would make it lopsided.

I also recently switched the prescription medication I take to an all-day time release form, which doesn't seem to work as well, but at least made it so I didn't have to carry pills around on me EDC.

Ah, you're in Kansas.

Yeah, my off-duty EDC includes a CCW, but work CONUS doesn't allow CCW...work in SWA includes a couple:D Fortunately, I'll be back in TX in about 30 days:thumbup:

Yep...didn't have the SAK on today, as I'm trying out the Surefire Aviator...also had a small Pocket Pal dayplanner today. It looks like a ton when I take it off, but when on it carries very well, and all "concealed" given my uniform. I surely can't get by with that much when dressed in civies.
