As I'm always in search of the perfect wallet, I'm always curious what others are using. I originally asked this question about a year or so ago and I wanted to hear from some of the newer forumites. I also wanted to know if your carry has changed or not. Right now, I have a Filson twill packer wallet that carries just about everything that I can come up with. It also feels much more durable and tough than my Taxi and Coach wallets. When combined with my small field bag, I almost have all of my bases covered.
Thanks,
Matt
 
I carry a cheap chinatown wallet. It's a bi fold and it's thin. I need a replacement soon, but I love this design
 
Rayskin wallet that I purchased at BLADE 2001........still going strong with little sign of wear!
 
Weekdays, I carry an Eagle Creek wallet in my back pocket, with cash, licenses, cards, etc. In my front pocket, I carry a Mission Wallet with my work ID, Fisher Space Pen, small first aid items, and something else - LM Squirt/Micra, Pocket Wrench, or whatever I feel like that day.

Weekends, I carry the Eagle Creek only, or no wallet at all. It depends on what I'm doing.

I think my answer is pretty close to last year's thread.
 
I carry a card holder/money clip from Coach. There are others like it, but this one has held up nicely for several yr now. Two slots on the front for credit cards, license, etc., open in the middle for business cards and a money clip on the back. The best thing I ever did was get rid of a big wallet in my back pocket about 10 yrs ago. This one slides in the front pants pocket or breast jacket pocket.

102 grain leather, samsonite... zellars xmas sale, $10.
about 2" longer than a bill, 6 card slots and space for those plastic card holders.

change goes in a leather folding pouch that my grandparents brought back from texas in 92.
 
T.H.E. Wallet from Spec-Ops (left back pocket) and Mission Wallet (right front pocket). Both are really excellent kit.
 
I also carry a stingray skin wallet. The stingray leather is extremely durable and attractive.
 
Same as last time. Dooney & Bourke Train Pass wallet. Starting to break in pretty good after 2+ years.
 
Working I carry a Bosca business card size wallet with a single ID window on one side, off work I use a Filson Security Wallet.
 
A leather Filson Packer wallet. I have never bought anything from Filson that I would want my money back on.

Well, there is one exception to that. After years of traveling on business and going through garment bags in short order, I bought a Filson garment bag. Took one business trip with it, and then my employer decided to reduce heads and I got a very nice severance/retirement package. The bag has hung in the closet ever since.
 
BLADERIGGER money clip wallet with an omega jr.hook blade one slot just enough for driver license,couple of credit cards. :D
 
Right now I'm carrying some off brand I got for x-mas a few years ago. My next wallet will be either a Filson Packer or the Fisher with the pocket for a bullet pen.

I'm carrying a Eagle Creek wallet for cash, credit cards, ID's etc. I like it because it has a full length zipper pouch where I put receipts and it's durable. In my front left pocket I carry a Mission Wallet with change in the pouch, buisness cards, bandaids, Fisher Space Pen, Arc AAA and a Victorinox Tinker. Those two things cover everything for me. Add my keys, cell phone and my Sebenza and I'm out the door.

Previously I'd always carried a leather wallet so I was a little hesitant to go with a ballistic velcro wallet but after using it for a while I really like it. It isn't classy, but it's oftly functional and I'll take that.
 
I carry a handmade leather wallet with rayskin inserts made by the world famous Kenny Rowe. He makes a heck of a wallet, and the price was pretty good too.
