I have been paring down the stuff I stuff my pockets with, hang off my belt and carry in my shoulder bag. Part of this is prep for an extended trip and part is just the ongoing job of simplifying my life.

Anyway, I was wondering what folks would suggest as the THREE items you would carry if you had to limit EDC to a pocketable (if that’s a word) three.

My list:

1. Small SAK
2. Single AA Flashlight
3. Loud Whistle


I have put this on a County Comm flexible ring so it sits more comfortablely in my pocket and will probably add a piece of paracord to tie it to my belt for security. And please don’t tell me that I now have FIVE items…………

So: what’s your pick of 3?
 
I'd upgrade the small SAK for a pocket carry One Handed Trekker or my choice..an alox Farmer
on key ring
AAA Fenix E01
I'm an old fart so will go with a pill fob and chewable aspirin for heart attack
 
If I really only could carry three (not actually my edc).

Cs Spartan
Redline 3 AAA light with SOS and 72 hour strobe.
Pack of Camels with my lighter. They count as 1 to me.
 
1. Leatherman Charge XTI (In a belt pouch)
2. Surefire Lumamax LX2 (Left front pocket)
3. Kahr MK9 in Aholster pocket rig (Right front pocket)
 
Knife, light, fire. The details aren't as important for me.
 
What he said (CWL) currently a Vic, a Bic, and a Fenix L0D

None of you carry a wallet or keys?

Wallet, knife, keys. I don't carry a murse and I don't hang anything off my belt so everything I carry is pocketable.
 
I don't consider wallet and keys EDC. Don't ask me why , that's just how I see it. I never carry a wallet or keys in the bush as far as that goes.
3 items I always carry are a folder , BIC lighter and bandanna. 24/7/365
 
Not including my wallet: Key ring, multitool, 2.5"x4" pocket notebook.

The key ring has a small LED light and a Utility-key. The notebook has a small pen attached and a book of matches in the back cover. The multitool gets swapped with a knife, depending on the circumstances.
