Nothing major but took some spare thumb studs from a bugout and put them on the Artisan Cutlery arion. Amazing improvement and put some skiff bearings in it.
you and me both lol. Most expensive piece is my CRKT CEO lol. Working on slowly upgrading but it's tough because everything I have works for my needs. The constant struggles of wants vs. needs lol
Question for the comments or Taylor: if you force patina copper as heavily as Frankie did does it rub off with use/?how hard wearing is it? It seems my stuff has a harder time getting a natural patina because it tends to re-polish itself in my pocket or clinking around with other gear all the time.
I always carry a Victorinox Swiss Army knife, and usually I trade out the standard scales that come with them for blue… for those ones you can’t get in Blue, I mean, like the Rambler… which I keep on my keychain.
I know in the opinel group on fb there are some mods that blow ya away. Some custom orders that also sell for around 2-300. I have quite a lot of the different models. The #13 saw stays in my truck pack.
Omg I just thought everyone had forgotten about the bench made 943 my dad bought one for me years ago as a gift I still have and love my 943 I hate that they stopped selling them
I would love to know how the first submission @Lassi modded his openel! What did he use to reshape the blade and handle? I would 100% carry an Opie that looked like that!!!
I love all these knives, but it’d be pretty great to actually see one that’s legal here in the Netherlands. That means, 1 sharp side, maximum of 28cm when unfolded, not a switchblade, no butterfly knifes (those are actually my favourites so I keep a butterfly comb on me a lot), but also no knifes that you can open through a button/pressure/swinging it open with gravity. Any suggestions? I don’t like just box cutters since I need something more sturdy most of the time.
Love your vids !!! I am into edc and want to send you pics of my gear !! Just trying to get my kid to help me because he has the bombastic camera gear ! Lol
Dumb question.. the stuff you carry on your person every day is EDC? Is the other equipment that sits in storage still EDC? Or only EDC when it’s being carried every day.
It could be helpful if we were able to see the carry the whole time you are talking about it. Sometimes after reading their description it cuts to a full screen of you talking about it and I have to rewind to see the carry again.

Not usually a fan off forced patina, but that second carry is legit on another level!!
The Leatherman PS is also a TSA friendly multitool. The Spyderco Victorinox mod is sick👍🏻!
Love Knathan’s Knives work on TH-cam & Instagram! Also, he’s my brother so glad to see his work being talked about by other influencers. 🙂✌️❤️
He’s a fantastic dude!
Please do more of these modified EDC weeklies!!!

I normally hate patina, that trio is WICKED and I'd rock it for sure!
Thank you!

Yes it will wear off but if you put clear coat on it it will preserve the patina

That Bugout is beautiful.
That shipwreck design stuff may be the coolest thing I have ever seen. I have to figure that one out.

Did you pick up one of those OD Green Zaans from Northwest?
That shipwreck is beautiful 😍
Hello from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦👍❤️👋
Damn! These are epic. I love the modified/ custom gear
Congrats on 250K subs!!
That is a pot welded to his exhaust. Awesome!
Bladeless leatherman fuse works too. Just sold one actually
Omg I just thought everyone had forgotten about the bench made 943 my dad bought one for me years ago as a gift I still have and love my 943 I hate that they stopped selling them
Leatherman also make the Style PS which is also a TSA approved multitool.
I like that g-shock. May have to re-consider wearing a watch. Has to be able to take a beating and still look good
Damn, I forgot to submit mine this time 🤦🏻♂️
Thanks for doing the show, Taylor 👍🏻
I actually did buy a pot and use it as an exhaust tip😝
Love the Nico Leonard van der Horst quote… “God tier” G-shock
Hey Taylor, do a working man’s edc! Also, I would I submit said carry if I don’t have instagram?
I use an sog traveler bultbuckle for a great and handy pocket tool
Love these videos, by far the draw to my obsession with your channel.
Thank you so much!! I’m so excited I’m in your video! ☺️
Leo's got style and Eric's Victoria Spyderco is cold blooded.
Hey first things first love your videos they got me into edc, mainly knives, but since you brought it up wanna sell that katana again?
🤣 I don’t think that’s wise. The universe has spoken
Taylor, add I little oil to the actuator on you Microtech it'll make easier to open and close 👍
It’s not the action. It’s the spring. It’s REALLY stiff
Oh ok. Cause I just got my ultratech and some one suggested it to me so I thought it might help :))
I just traded my pm3 with that kraken design in brass for a new ultratech s/e. I'll probly build another.
This is a cool series idea
I commented about the second edc before I seen the tritium bugout 😍 that thing is freaking gorgeousssssss!
Thank you 😁
Who did the scales? I love that knife.
Say what you will about forced patina. Frankie's carry looks incredible.
Thank you 🙏
DNA lasering is my dude only person I'll get Lazer work done by.
Will definitely check out the clip recommendation. Also got forwarded to Ripps Garage tech, their fatty pocket clip looks tempting as well.
I would love to know how the first submission @Lassi modded his openel! What did he use to reshape the blade and handle? I would 100% carry an Opie that looked like that!!!
Protech SBR fixed blade I would trade! Leather sheath with it to

That second edc though!
Thank you 🙏
No problem!
Love your vids !!! I am into edc and want to send you pics of my gear !! Just trying to get my kid to help me because he has the bombastic camera gear ! Lol
"i wish Everything had tritium on it" 😄 me too brotha!
Dumb question.. the stuff you carry on your person every day is EDC? Is the other equipment that sits in storage still EDC? Or only EDC when it’s being carried every day.
Nice one again here! Thanks for sharing
def anodize the scales the same blue as close as you can get to the tritium 👍
Homemade EDC like handmade knives or Pry bar
Maybe an idea for a future one would be handmade carries?
Thank you
Great video all around! I sure enjoyed all the pics

Great topic!
awesome finds
Thanks for showing of my shit!
Hey Given_PNW,
For an TSA legal Multitool, I have used a Leatherman Skeletool with a washer in place of the knife blade.
My high school is allowed to take his Gerber MP-600, and uses it all the time in his shop at school.
This video seems like it was heavily inspired by the series Metal Complex just did on modded knives
White gear? A White Spyderco Para3?
whoever wanted the white gear, ExcessorizeMe has a white gear, and a NASA theme videos that feature white EDC
The only way I think I could carry an opinel is if it was modified in some way like the first edc.
Not the hugest fan of the reverse tanto on the Osborne 940 either.
Cool mods

Couldn't watch because of the music overpowering the commentary. I can't do both.
