Here's mine. The bag i leave the house with, whether I have other stuff with me or not.
I ride a bike unless I absolutely have to drive somewhere for work or somesuch, and I live in a town in a semi-rural and heavy agricultural area, so that colors my choices a lot. (as does our weather)
That's the bag, belt, and pockets (minus a few pens and lighters). You see the fancy W&S patch on the caribou bag, my "laptop" phone (nokia E61), clear and dark glasses, my hat, my everpesent REI filter screen coffee cup, a Camillus rigging knife I don't carry *every* day but which is my go to for cordage work, my necker, and the always famous Victorinox outrider and LM crunch pair.
closer vies of the necker, Camillus, well used outrider and crunch
Here's the bag unpacked
Wow! What's *in* there?
Nearly everything, apparently. Brinks LED flashlight (yeah, it's not a surefire, but it works) LED headlamp, red LED keychain light on a caribiner on the bag, a tiny little white LED light that has pushbutton on & blink modes and an elastic cord to attach to handlebars.
Toothbrush kit, 9 yards 550, small sewing kit in a medicine bottle, paperback book, space blanket, 2 bike tools.
the black case on the left bottom is my HP-35S calculator. Does fractions, binary, logic operators, equation solving, and is programmable. I use it several times a day.
The cord-wrapped knife on the left is a 5160 blade I forged and have been testing for a half a year, works great, REALLY EASY package to carry with the linen wrapped handle. On the right is a nessie necker design I keep testing out. Sharp little beastie.
Two moleskines? well, one is my bobo book, and the other is actually my wallet.
Yaesu VX-170 Weatherproof 2m ham transceiver. Get your license, it's worth it.
The ipod shuffle is the old style that works as a memory stick, and that's mostly what it is.
The black case on the left on top is my first aid kit
Gauze, tape, loratadine, ointments for my hussein sunburn (seems to last a long time, huh?), iodine, lighter, teensy sak (only in there for scissors and scalpel, but no better ambidextrous scissors are made), ace bandage, and alcohol wipes. Oh yeah, and the T cord and bite kit.
The first aid kit is sitting on my forage bag- one of those string tie backpack thingies that holds a ton but folds down into the bottom of my caribou and takes no space. It's nylon instead of pastic. handy handy thing to have around.
