My everyday, never leave home without it. The Sebenza just replaced my Microtech mini Socom Elite, the Glock gets 50/50 carry, during the summer I replace it with a Kahr PM9 equally customized, heavier clothing the 23 goes with me. Fancier dress the Luminox Chrony blackout gets replaced with my Tag or my F117 stealth. What do you leave home with everyday and why?

Wallet, keys, cellphone for obvious reasons, I'm addicted to chapstick, plus its a great fire starter, the little case is my sheeple knife, surefire E1b light, survival braclet with shackle.
I work at a huge gun shop during the day, SWAT cop for a local dept at night.
 
I always have my PM9, spare mag or two(depends where I'm going and mood), E2D defender, and my Mini CQC 15, mostly paired with my Manix 2 lately. Plus phone, wallet, keys, had lighter.



Chapstick can be used as a fire starter?
 
Yes, chapstick burns like crazy, gather up some tinder, smear some chapstick on it and hit it with a spark. You will be amazed.
I carry a tiny ferro rod in my wallet, with the chapstick it helps getting things to burn. Cant always count on draining the car of gas or motoroil, lol
 
wallet
key
phone
watch- g-shock something it was like 90$, and for nicer places my citizen eco drive or another watch [i love them]
knife- zt 0300 and dpx gear hest 2.0
zippo
cigarettes
sunglasses if its day time [sensitive eyes due to birth complications]



i never carry a flashlight on me though. i don't see the need. in my car i have a mag light led and a mini mag. and a nice led flashlight in the door pocket. and i don't exactly need it on my day to day duties plus there is no comfortable place to carry on for the style of clothes i wear
 
The things that don't change are screwzall and LED light on my keys, phone, wallet, lighter, Pockettoolx Piranha and Olight T10. At work I usually carry something slim and light because I work in scrubs, so my Benchmade 530 sees a lot of pocket time there. In street clothes I usually carry a slim slicer in my back pocket and a larger, heavy duty folder for chores that require more muscle. In a suit I carry either an A.G. Russell Italian Tactical with brown anodized titanium or a Mcusta Tactility with cocobolo scales. Almost forgot, I also always have a Buck Metro that my father gave me more than a decade ago.
 
jwblack911 funny u mention it, always have my photon light on my keys, since my car works by push button ignition I always have access to that light. Didnt ever really use the surefire until just recently during a weather emergency and it was invaluable. made the years (months with that particular light) carrying that light well worth it
 
You work at a gun shop and on a SWAT team and you worry about sheeple?

I carry one of my knives, my Nebo blueline flashlight and a Bic. Just waiting to move to an open carry state.
 
Basically the only thing I always carry everyday is my fenix pd30 flashlight and my wallet. Then I'll generally carry a sak and a one hand folder. I've not been carrying a pistol lately since I've been living in either California or an extremely rural part of Washington state where everybody knows everybody.

LOL, on duty is a bit different, though that stuff rolls with me to station. Off duty, yes, I always carry, even not in uniform you are still an officer and that drive is still there, plus having spent 6 years in patrol I always worry about running into someone I had contact with when I have my family with me.
So yea, the little case is simply a string and tape cutter, but it helps keep my main blade sharp and doesnt draw attention when used, plus if someone needs a knife for something I dont have to worry about them as much

- phone (Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, thank you)
- pocket pistol (Kahr PM9, Kel-tec PF-9, Ruger SP-101, S&W 442 or Ruger LCP)
- folder
- SAK or multitool
- whistle
- Sharpie

The standard stuff- wallet, phone, etc.
and a red bandanna, million uses, a schrade tac pen with a Fisher insert, a moleskin notebook, a Surefire G2L, a one hand knife (right now swithcing between a Ka-Bar FIN folder and a CRKT M16-14ZSF desert), a Buck 55 or a Cold Steel super edge for small chores, a Leatherman ST300, a paracord bracelet, and a cheap Timex watch (keep losing or breaking em)
And my bag, not gonna get into that
 
I work in an urban office and today I'm edcing a yellow Spydie Salt I along with FOUR lights:

-- Photon Pro and a DealExtreme knockoff on keyring;
-- Nitecore D10 clipped inside pants pocket;
-- And ThruNite 1C Neutral in outside coat pocket.

The Photon Pro is a newer model with a terrific light but it's expensive and sometimes turns on by itself. The light on the cheapo knockoff isn't nearly as good but it's great as a backup and for gifts.
