My wife and i have carried our SAK Classic on flights for years. no questions. So it's also TSA-Friendly. My Micro EDC consists of: On my Key-chain: SAK Classic Alox CRKT Iota Eating tool Rovyvon Aurora A1 flashlight OLIGHT i3e EOS flashlight (2nd flashlight) Titanium Whistle Titanium 3" toothpick Swiss-Tech utili-key (2nd blade) Handcuff Key Micro-USB to USB C adapter In my Wallet: ASE Fresnel Lens Ceramic folding razor (3rd blade) Swiss Card light (4th blade, 3rd flashlight, 2nd scissors, 2nd magnifying lens + pen, tweezers, pin) I carry all of it every day, and its not overwhelming (except when I'm in swim trunks!?). I carry ALL of it on Domestic and International flights, through security. I also usually carry a short folder (CRKT Squid) or a Leatherman Free T4 (not through TSA security though 🙂).
They will take that “TSA” approved Leatherman Multi tool. I got through 4 times. Searched. My bag 5th time and took it even though I told them it just had a scissor.
Glad you mentioned the Style PS. Great tool and so light weight. I pair it with the Civivi Mini Elementum. Both around 4oz. Barely feel them in my pockets. So functional. Perfect edc for me.
maybe a little large, but the SOG powerpint. I just picked one up this weekend. Also bought a gerber dime paired with an, o.light tlr1, or nite eyes single aaa light. All on individual locking s biners on a key ring with a gear aid glow stick. The SOG, while on the larger keychain size, is absolutely phenomenal. These micros are a great compliment to my ridiculous edc surge based pocket tool with every accessory that weighs a ton. My 1/4" bit extension in the end of the sog makes a perfectly sized and well balanced screwdriver, unlike the Surge. If I need to hold a nut with the surge, the sog with bit extension can be used to screw the fastner in. Great combo
Schrade Outback assisted opening knife, half serrated blade in AUS10, 3 & 7/8". $30.00. Griffin pry tools are good, the brass ones will bend, they come in various colors & sizes. Olight i3teos is good. Leatherman micra is a good scissors choice. Grimworkshop has some micro tools that cover alot of uses. Enjoyed watching this, thanks.
Nice selection. I have the i1R and another one like it (but not as nice; only one mode), and a couple more incoming. I have Sofirn's version of the Perun Mini, but I keep it in its headlamp-strap. I got the Prybrid from an earlier video you did, and also the Gerber Dime (which has scissors; I've used mine).
For an urban working environment such as an office, shop , store or factory where you might be restricted in what sort of knife you are allowed to carry, I recommend you upgrade your 2 layer 58mm Victorinox to either its multi-layer big brother the 58mm Midnite Mini-Champ which has a whole range of extra mini-tools including a mini-flashlight & a retractable pressurized pen, thus saving you weight in not having to pocket carry a separate flashlight & a pen in your pants pocket or go straight to a larger urban working environment SAK such as the 91mm Compact which has both scissors & a pen
awesome video , fantastic small tools. note on the leatherman nail file vs victorinox. i believe victorinox is entirely made in europe where as the leatherman might be made partly in mexico and assemble partly in us. im not sure of the percentage so best to double check. anyways great video brother.
pocket flossing some nice stuff there buddy, anything that cost more than $20 is getting tied to me lol , I have found most tiny prybars are useless as a tool , I really like my victonox micro manager- that little pocket knife has everything from a little red light to even a ball point pen coupled that with my i3Olight and my micro swiss tech plyers that attached to a key ring makes them hard to lose and boy howdy I feel like MacGyver in most situations
Buck mini spitfire, about to order SOG Powerpint, I also have new cold steel mini recon folding bowie, victorinox Evo grip 10 or 11, small Fenix VE1 light, and an olight open mini, I may get a maxpedition micro to carry my stuff, also light chapstick, few other little things.
I must say everything presented was most certainly not small or micro. They are clearly all "average" sized with some well above average... also many actually prefer smaller tools and state that they preform far better for intended use.
I spoke with my dad about his EDC while he was active in the Airforce, and he said his Gerber Gatergrip and the Leatherman PST's flathead was his prybar. He kinda just grunted when I showed him mine... haha.
@@focusonthefocus yeah, the only time I pry anything is opening a can of paint…. Not being a professional painter, that’s once every five to ten years, so whatever crappy old flathead screwdriver I’ve got gets a little paint on it.
@@MarineX most definitely. Im a much smaller channel but I cover the dime in my videos. It’s a great tool you can find for $20-$25. And it has scissors.
I wanted my wife to have a powerful flashlight with her but she did not want the extra weight... So I found the Trustfire Mini3. Hella small 300lm keychain light.

I like that Schrade is shifting things up and making a selection of USA-made cutlery.

Ya, I can't carry anything larger than a 3.5 in. Blade.
@@cardiacbob Happy Saturday Robert, I am fortunate that I don't have any such restrictions where I live ( Tel Aviv, Israel )
@@stevesinclair4159 I've lost two knives going into the White House... I know they don't allow knives, I was just stupid and I forgot...

Hello Battalion I carry the Gerber Dime another great video 👍👍👍

Leatherman Micra goes everywhere with me. Hands down best “micro” scissors I’ve found.
I really got to get my hands on that. I want to compare it to the Leatherman style PS.
Used my micro flashlight to smash the like button. Great video sir
Drop kick status. I likes 😂
Very surprised no Rovyvon, they produce some amazing small lights, the Aurora's are great
Buck mini spitfire, about to order SOG Powerpint, I also have new cold steel mini recon folding bowie, victorinox Evo grip 10 or 11, small Fenix VE1 light, and an olight open mini, I may get a maxpedition micro to carry my stuff, also light chapstick, few other little things.
Great selection!
Thanks much. It takes all my money.
Old army grunt here, good reviews, good channel, subscribed after your Amp10 review that you actually used👍
Thanks motivator.
personally i like the card sharp, the pocket monkey, a carabiner scalpel tool, and the ps style.
Video with prices！Good job with that
Good info and cool pics.
Thanks much!

Just found your channel. Love the content. New subscriber here.

For the first time I see an afroamerican EDC geek. A fresh look at EDC topic.
He's a jarhead. We're a weird bunch, light or dark green. You wouldn't understand!
The video I didn't know I needed.
What’s surprising is that I never have needed a pry bar such that I’d edc one, yet so many people seem to. Oh well, you do you.
I spoke with my dad about his EDC while he was active in the Airforce, and he said his Gerber Gatergrip and the Leatherman PST's flathead was his prybar.

nice gonna enjoy watching this !
Ooh Ethos gang! Or is that Icon Pro? :D
O light and Nite ize are the kings of small edc.
I concur
Great video
Thanks much
What does EDC stand for?
Everyday carry
Not a fan of side button lights. They tend to accidentally engage in pocket and drain the battery
No Gerber Dime?
I need to cop one
@@MarineX most definitely. Im a much smaller channel but I cover the dime in my videos. It’s a great tool you can find for $20-$25. And it has scissors.
Big fan of OLITE
They're making it happen
a length meter? I think those are called rulers...
It has to have a fancy name sir or I'm not doing my job 😂
I wanted my wife to have a powerful flashlight with her but she did not want the extra weight...
So I found the Trustfire Mini3. Hella small 300lm keychain light.
Peak 300 or constant?
Civivi mini Elementum
Not a flipper, that's a slip joint.
Learning has occurred. Thanks brother
4 BY 2 INCHES ISNT MICRO ITS PERFECTLY AVERAGE
Giggity
Nice collection. If you had shortend/trimmed you finger nails before the video shot, I would have enjoyed it much more ...
Glad to see TH-cam correction officers are out today. Let me know when you film yours
No, no need.
5 coke nails on every hand, kinda grosing me out, maybe it's just my own problem..
Good thing the TH-cam correction officers are out tonight
