True.
(at least one)
A. iphone (I find I don't wear watches much anymore)
B. far to many to list and unfortunately I don't even own most of them lol my gerber profile w/hook seems to see a lot of carry tho as i'm mostly too lazy to switch from work beater to something more fancy
C. iphone (never really carried a light other then a mini-mag at work but not since I got the Iphone....been meaning to try some more "tacticool" ones tho
D. Wife (and my daughter the lil woman...."mini-mom")
 
Heck, this is a knife-forum. I don't wear a watch anymore. I seldom carry a flashlight unless I'm out walking at night. My wife is a fine woman; wouldn't trade her...and one wife is just fine for me.

But I have...and I want...and I need...quite a few knives.

I've been going through one of my severe minimalist phases lately.

A Casio F-91w
B Vic Spartan (appropriate no?) or a Case yellow peanut.
C Coast LED (single AAA) something-or-other, had it for years, works great.
D Mrs yobbos1 is the best there is, period.;)
 
I already have a knife. Now I need a woman who has a flashlight and a watch. Any woman reading this please send me a picture of your flashlight and watch...:p
 
1. Tissot T-Touch
2. Spyderco Manix 2
3. Inova X1
4. Wife

I will also say that every man needs a very good friend. The kind that will tell him when he's got a noodle in his beard.
 
Hello All! I am new to the forum and this is actually my first post.

1. Cell Phone is also my time piece.
2. I always carry two, all the time. At present a Mora 1/0 and an Opinel No. 8 Garden.
3. Dorcy 41-2510 LED
4. Wife

As someone else mentioned, a gun should probably be included. I have a CCW and carry 24/7.
 
A. Don't have a good one
B. How do I even choose between them all??
C. How do I even choose between them all??
D. How do I even choose between them all?? Just kidding, my girlfriend of course
E. Favorite rifle? toss up between the AR and my 30-30
F. Favorite black powder gun? 1858 Remington new army

A. Skagen with a white face and a brown leather strap. very simple, very classy. love this watch
B. spyderco dragonfly. maybe not my best knife but I think its my most carried EDC
C. streamlight stylus pro (when I get my replacement in the mail)
D. yeah I've got a lady... she's 'aight ;)

can I make an addition to what every man needs on their person at all times?

E. a good CONDOM. c'mon, you want to talk about things that you can carry around that might save your life? how about one of these? I guarantee you'll need it sooner than you'll need a self defense knife, just sayin'. such an easy thing to add to your inventory, might as well, even if you don't think you're getting lucky. I carry a trojan "Naked sensations" ;P

I know that there are some really cool women on this forum so I am not trying to be sexist by this post but...

D. A good woman

I know that most of us have several of each. What are your favorites???...

I've found that I "need" two things, A & B. A is my dog Murphy (my mood stabilizer when I'm out in public), B is the knife I'm carrying... usually a Native 5 that is sometimes replaced by a small micarta 21. I have all the other things in your list and I love my wife the most of all of them (she knows all about my "hobby"and doesn't care one way or the other), but A & B are absolutely essential and I'd have them whether or not I was married and had a Fenix in my pocket.
 
A: Timex Ironman
B: changes every day, but today is a Kershaw Blackout
C: ultramini keychain flashlight designed for jacket zipperpulls
D: same girl for the last 7 years, not much variation there
 
I'd add a good lighter to that list. Even if you don't smoke, they come in handy.
 
A. A cheap Casio digital watch with backlight.
B. 3-inch folder, currently the Al Mar Nomad. Need more 3-inch folders, especially beaters for EDC.
C. Blackhawk Ally PL3 LED with pocket clip.
D. Don't have one, don't intend to find one for the foreseeable future.
 
Today it's:

A. Rolex Milgauss
B. Small micarta Sebenza
C. Quark mini 123
D. Mrs. Retzius (married 5 years, together 13)

Welcome to you, sir, but perhaps not quite 24 hrs/day. Very uncomfortable. But I do understand what you meant. I do the same. My knife is for utility only; I am not trained to fight with it.

That's a pretty good list, but I agree with some of the others, I'd add "a good gun" or two...and a Bible.

A. I have about 19 watches right now. None are expensive but I do have mostly good mechanical watches. I wear a watch every day and rely on them frequently.
B. I have at least 80 knives in my collection. I have about 6 that I rotate through for EDC.
C. I have about 30 lights of various types. I got interested in good LED lights a few years ago and bought a lot of different ones. They have improved a lot over the past few years and that last 2 Fenix lights I bought are much better than almost all of my old lights.
D. I have ONE wife and ONE daughter.
