Minimal edc setup

I joined edc forums, that is an awesome forum. No I dont live in a post apocalyptic area, I live in Alabama and I just want ideas for a minimal edc for work. When you wear jeans and khakis on a daily basis you cant fit a lot of gear in your pockets. I do carry an edc shoulderpack, its about the size of a large chip bag. Its called a "red rock-rover". Im looking for a small folder (to conserve pocket real estate) pen, wallet, watch, flashlight and so on. Just the bare minimum. Right now im carrying an emerson roadhouse and its not at all minimal. If I buy something its not to look pretty, its to use. Never difused a bomb (although it sounds like a lot of fun) im not in a dangerous environment. The most dangerouse thing out here is a drunk redneck with fireworks. Hope this is semi informative.

I don't do the minimalist thing, but if I were to cut down on what I carry, I would be left with:

- keys
- wallet
- iPhone 5
- victorinox watch
- paracord bracelet
- folder
- fisher space pen bullet (gets used very frequently)
- Wenger esquire
- Streamlight Microstream
- Glock 19 Gen 4


I suppose that's still a lot to most people, but that is cutting out a couple useful items, and I actually use this stuff enough that I would be annoyed by not having it on hand.
 
Exactly! I was thinking of either a bm mini grip or a bm 531 Pardue, or something similar. Good steel and solid lockup.
