I definitely use my flashlight more than anything. The knife does come in handy opening packages/kids toys/scraping/cleaning/prying and fidgeting during zoom calls.
I Carry a really really small knife in my keychain. I mainly cut or help remove the cigar label paper or the ribbons that some have at the tip. But it's useful in general, just in case. You never know when you might need one
CHALUPA I enjoyed the slightly longer video. Having some more explanation to why you chose the gear you did gave some perspective on how they can be useful to edc. Great vid as always!
Much appreciated Ryan! It’s always in the back of my mind that a video might be too long so I’m glad the longer format has its benefits with the deeper exposition 🤘🏼
I use my knives regularly! And I used my pocket flashlight Sunday night after the Super Bowl. We were at a friend’s house and their driveway is both steep and dark. The Mrs. Appreciated it because her phone was low battery and she didn’t want to use its light.
I carry knives on a daily at work to cut split conduit loom, electrical tape, make markings, etc. I also use my laser pointer/ flashlight to see into bilges and point at broken components/ where things can go!
Hi Ron, nice EDC update for 2024! The Protech Malibu Operator is a fantastic, DLC blacked-out flipper and daily carry mine. Kudos to Protech's foresight of including the Tritium button lock (almost lost my Malibu Operator at night once, if not for the Tritium!). I EDC a Tactical Turn Side-Click pen, which I love. I'm going to take the plunge and take the fountain pen challenge for a while, and see how I like it. Great content, keep it coming! -Alex@Vanquest 👍🖊
Love your Chanel so much, I would love to see more new edc items. You do such a great job describing each item. Hello from Southern California, this is Alan.
CHALUPA - I only carry a small Victorinox, but if I’m being honest I don’t use it that much. I do really like having it with me though, and when I do need it, I’m so glad I have it.
I use my pocket knife on a daily. I’m a bigger guy, so I try to ensure that everything in my pockets are truly essential. Thanks for letting me share bro! Great video BTW 🤙🏽
The Re:Form RE:01 is an awesome wallet and has been my everyday carry for about 9 months now. The fact it can carry change/bills was the decider for me as I need to carry plastic and cash.
YOU ARE A FREAKIN BOSS! This video felt like 5 minutes because of how drawn I was. I commend you brother. I’m ready for a LWP: Essential Carry Netflix series 😛. Always dropping heat my guy. Thank you for a WAKAPOW of a video 🤙🏾
I am in the UK(Scotland) and rarely carry cards as the phone does almost everything cashless. Its great.i keep a 20 inside the back of my phone cover just in case. The only times I need cash is the barbers and a few services I get to the house (no not that) like window washer and house cleaners
Keys, wallet, utility knife, flashlight(night), phone, ccw, pepper spray. . Ive used the flashlight more than the knife, so *shrugs* know your situation, edc accordingly 😅
I really don’t get why you don’t have more views. Amazing quality and aesthetics, really enjoyed the video. Btw give me that first knife. The foldable one.
Use my edc knife daily, if not daily every other day. However between that and the scissors on my SAK classic SD on my keychain - double daily for sure
I'm still carrying the RE:FORM RE:01 you gave me, Ron. (I won it in one of your giveaways.) It's the best wallet I've ever owned. I'm a little puzzled by your comments about the Apple Watch. If it's not your cup of tea, that's fine. But saying you stopped wearing it because you couldn't deal with all the notifications is bogus. You can turn those off, and I'm sure you know that.
Glad you like the reform wallet! Regarding the watch, what I’m referring to is the added sensory stimulation. I can definitely acknowledge all the benefits and added tech you can take advantage of with a wearable. Yes I can silence the audible notifications - hell, I can disable the notifications altogether and have it just be a screen on my wrist and only engage with it when I want, but that’s exactly the thing. I found it to be another point of distraction and sensory stimulus when my current state of mind is to regulate and reduce the amount of stimuli I get from screens. Another layer to this is sentiment of screen regulation ebbs and flows, that’s just where I’m at right now. Hope this clarifies things a bit!
Awesome EDC specially because everything has a reason to be carried! But... I was kind expecting you to talk about a smart ring. I was looking at that ring and thinking it was an oura ring or something like that. Well... since you mentioned the problem with notifications on a smartwatch, did you miss the fitness tracking and other resources from it?
Haha the ring I have on is my wedding ring! Just tungsten carbide and rose gold, nothing smart. I'm not really a jewelry dude so I couldn't get behind the Oura, although I have friends who think highly of it. As for fitness tracking, I've used Fitbit, Whoop, and to a certain extent the Apple Watch for this purpose, but I also found that all the metrics got in the way of me just getting out there and working out. I def see the benefits of smart things and apps, but I'm currently in the season of balance, having my productivity apps but also keeping things simple. Thanks for the comment!!
I use my knife everyday from cutting boxes and fruit to cordage to string on my coat ,opening soil I do it all but I have alot of knives so I switch em out and sharpen my own shit maintenance is key man .
I like the clean look of your video. I also like your question for engagement, i honestly rarely use my knife. Not out of choice, there just isnt many opportunities to use it. Question for you, have you seen taco bells new 2024 line up? Im hoping for a new good CHALUPA!
Hi Ron! Enjoyed this video a lot. May I ask what color your key organizer is?? I’m going to get one and I like that color the most, but I can’t seem to find that color on their site
I absolutely can’t stand the way that that knife flaw works where if you have a knife on you it Hass to be out on your belt because let’s face it when someone sees a knife out on your belt it freaks them out unless they happen to be a knife person. It’s ridiculous. And then if you hide it and you happen to get harassed by the cops for some reason and they go through your stuff then that’s an extra charge. Granted, I don’t think that’s going to happen to most people but still, it’s really annoying.to me, I think if you’re gonna have a knife out on your belt where it’s just right out in the open, it might as well be a sword.😂
I definitely use my flashlight more than anything. The knife does come in handy opening packages/kids toys/scraping/cleaning/prying and fidgeting during zoom calls.
Fidgeting during zoom calls underrated 🤘🏼
3:11 must've replayed that at least a dozen times, that is certainly satisfying
I Carry a really really small knife in my keychain. I mainly cut or help remove the cigar label paper or the ribbons that some have at the tip. But it's useful in general, just in case. You never know when you might need one
Agreed! Doesn't have to be a massive blade, but it comes in clutch when you don't have anything remotely sharp nearby
I use my knife pretty much every day and the gerber dime on my key chain regularly. I feel their loss keenly everytime I travel.
I use my pocket knife almost daily for work. Mostly one of the two knives my father passed down to me. ^.^
Love that you're using time-tested and legacy passed down blades man, that's awesome. Keep it up!
CHALUPA I enjoyed the slightly longer video. Having some more explanation to why you chose the gear you did gave some perspective on how they can be useful to edc. Great vid as always!

There you go! A reason to carry a flashlight that’s different from your smartphone (there’s already so many reason though 😉)
I use my Kershaw leek fully assisted every day. It was designed by Ken Onion. Black handle black blade 14C28n blade
I carry knives on a daily at work to cut split conduit loom, electrical tape, make markings, etc. I also use my laser pointer/ flashlight to see into bilges and point at broken components/ where things can go!
Sounds super interesting, love to see a good set of tools being put to good use!
3 cards. 1 id, 2 cc of different brands like visa and Mastercard. $20 hard cash, 1 $10, 1 $5 and 5 singles

Hey Alex, thanks for the comment! Fountain pen challenge is gonna be fun, lemme know how it goes 🙌
With my job as technician, I almost always use my knife cutting, breaking opening boxes
Great video, and that slingbag toss is on point 😅
Lots of practice 😉 thanks Bo!
Chalupa baby! Absolutely loved the longer format. The way you poked fun at yourself was great
Thanks man I’m glad you enjoyed it!
honestly, i use an old buck for most stuff and a kershaw pub for boxes--at some point when the buck dies gonna invest in a nicer assist pocket folder.
Sounds awesome man. Use those tools into the ground!
CHALUPA you know I'm here for the knives 🙌🙌
Love your Chanel so much, I would love to see more new edc items. You do such a great job describing each item.

Good thing about Victorinox is that they're pretty small so it doesn't cost much real estate to keep it on you even if you don't use it often. Nice!
Might use knife once per week. Chalupa. Unfortunately, I have to carry double on work days... Kind of a bummer; appreciate the minimal koadout
Makes sense to have work and personal carry separate 👍 good stuff dude
I use my pocket knife on a daily. I’m a bigger guy, so I try to ensure that everything in my pockets are truly essential. Thanks for letting me share bro! Great video BTW 🤙🏽
Awesome to hear man, and yes curating those pockets is ESSENTIAL!
CHALUPA. Ron, love the videos and your unique take on gear and edc. But I’m going to say your videography on this video is especially great.
Been working hard on the details to get it to that point Dave, thank you!
Almost never use my edc knives maybe twice a year. I have box cutters for packages 😂 no need to get blades dirty or blunt from tape etc.
The Re:Form RE:01 is an awesome wallet and has been my everyday carry for about 9 months now. The fact it can carry change/bills was the decider for me as I need to carry plastic and cash.
Love me a good hybrid carry. Can't fully commit to all digital just yet so here we are 👍

CHALUPA I gotta dona rewatch because I was at work while watching. I didn't have vol loud but man everything looked so got dayum smooth
Sooo good!! I gotta come back and watch again
Thanks for the love Mikey!
Awesome vid bro! MORE 🔥🙌🏼
Thank you brother!! Yessir 🤘
My work knife is a spyderco para 2 Monday through Friday lol my other knives barley like twice a month
The Final Fantasy sound effect🫶🏽❤️🫶🏽
Stoked for FFVII Rebirth?!
Nice video - thanks for showing the gear- Chalupa
Thanks Kathleen, glad you enjoyed it!
Alternative to the Orbitkey, I would suggest the KeySmart Mini Key Organizer for those who have two keys. Otherwise, I'd get the Orbitkey myself. :P
CHALUPA I always enjoy the gear you showcase and how you share your thoughts on the why of it. It's also great to see you improving every time.
Thanks Miya!! That means a lot coming from a longtime supporter like you and I’m glad the content has been evolving 🙌
Chalupa! I liked the teal light in the background the most!
Thank you! Fun little accent light 💡
Great video! I too, love the EDC goodies!
Thanks Tyler 🤘🏼
Keys, wallet, utility knife, flashlight(night), phone, ccw, pepper spray.

Ive used the flashlight more than the knife, so *shrugs* know your situation, edc accordingly 😅
Sometimes it be like that 😂
I second giving fountain pens a try I've had the Kaweco Liliput in copper for about a year and I love it.
Nice! I haven’t looked at Kaweco pens despite using their ink refills - will do!
I went down thew fountain pen rabbit hole, may never see the light of day again.
Godspeed man 🥲

Great video man, love that it was longer! Chalupa with purpose.
Yessir glad to hear it!! Thank you man 🙏🏼
I hope the magnets on the wallet don't interfere with the magnetic strip on the debit card (or credit card, if it has one)
I haven't had any issues with demagnetized cards with this one!
Solid video! Noticeable increase in quality / production, keep up the good work :)
Thanks man glad you enjoyed this one!
CHALUPA videos always on point thanks for always keeping it Sharp
Glad you enjoy man!
that wallet is clutch, I love mine
Great to hear man!

I use my knife (benchmade claymore grivory OTF) whenever Amazon comes.
How often does Amazon come?!
@@RonKwok twice a week lol
I use my knives every day. Just yesterday I used my Kizer drop bear to cut a hole in some dry wall!
Sweet! Keep it up man 🙌
Ron, we’re still waiting for a tutorial to make a paracord watch strap with that magnetic buckle!😊
Maaaan I knew you were still out there! It’s coming 🙏🏼
I most enjoyed....watching you chow down on that CHALUPA
I use my knife everyday from cutting boxes and fruit to cordage to string on my coat ,opening soil I do it all but I have alot of knives so I switch em out and sharpen my own shit maintenance is key man .
Awesome! Amen to that maintenance is absolutely crucial 🤘🏼
Thanks for the GAW Ron! CHALUPA
🙌🙌
Ayeeee yo what a kit!!
Thanks bro!!
Yaya! Let’s gooo!
CHALUPA loved the B roll and close up shots man. Keep grinding!!
Yessir will do!
Great advice and gear per usual man!
I appreciate you Brett!
Great carry, always enjoy your videos 👊
Thanks TR!
Get a magnetic connector for the orbit car key combo. Its a game changer
OOH and detach when you're not taking your car? INTERESTING
Chalupa liked the glasses
This was a great gear; loved all the gear that you covered. I would leave out the lotion and grab an edc chalupa though! 🌮🌮🌮
The tradeoff is REAL! Thanks man 🔥
I like the clean look of your video. I also like your question for engagement, i honestly rarely use my knife. Not out of choice, there just isnt many opportunities to use it. Question for you, have you seen taco bells new 2024 line up? Im hoping for a new good CHALUPA!
Rare opportunities definitely is a thing. I have NOT seen their new 2024 lineup, what's different?!
Nine items but none are a CHALUPA, what gives! Sick video Ron!
Gonna have to fix that, congrats on the win!
@@RonKwok thanks G, messaged you the addy on insta
i could genuinely use a knife every day at work, i open hundereds of boxes daily, but they give us boxcutters so no use really
dear ron, firstly, CHALUPA and secondly i think all you are doing is perfectly done and needs no improvement
Thanks my taco brethren! Always looking for ways to innovate and improve 🔥
What's up Ron, I'm H! New here. I like your EDC stuff man!
Thanks for the support man!
Where to buy your LWP ranger eyes?
If you discover watches you will be walking down a very expensive and obsessive path 😂
CHALUPA , the true EDC !
Now we need a Kydex sheath in the shape of the chalupa
Hi Ron! Enjoyed this video a lot. May I ask what color your key organizer is?? I’m going to get one and I like that color the most, but I can’t seem to find that color on their site
I’m thinking the closest would be driftwood?
Yup it’s the driftwood crazy horse KO! Hope you picked it up and are getting good mileage out of it!
@@RonKwok thanks so much for the reply Ron! I haven’t picked it up yet, haha. Will now though ;) have a great Memorial Day!
CHALUPA is a canoe or small boat.
Fruits & cuticles hahahha everyday.

Great stuff my guy
Thanks Marty!!

Yea the logic boggles my mind sometimes 🤷♂️ sword would be even more intense
I carry 3 knives, 2 of which I use for work alternately. But they’re the exact same knife so there’s that…😅
Better safe than sorry 😂
CHALUPA is not as great as the cheesy Gordita crunch but hey 🤷🏽♂️
I use mine everyday for something lol. Cleaning my finger nails, even cutting my CHALUPA
Hopefully not without cleaning in between 😂😂
@@RonKwok 🤣🤣🤣right
Благодарю!
Np!
Hey Ron! What is that beautiful fixed blade? Looks like a Tracker Dan to me but wanted to confirm :) super sweet
It's the Auxiliary Manufacturing Pocket Bowie in Stingray Resin Wrap!
Chalupa
what's the knife @2:51?
Hey man be more confident in that sense, I bet most people here won't judge you for that and in all probability fully understands you
I appreciate it man!
CHALUPA what's the word my guy
If your Item brings you joy but you don't Use it, Is the joy it gives you enough?
If it brings you joy, you are using it for the joy it brings.
Nice editing! CHALUPA
A: I use my Benchmaid serrated Bailout on the daily.
Bailout is goated 🤘
TBH i use my knife for flipping wayyyy more than actual cutting.
PREACH
Anyone looking for that starter knife please go get a Civivi before you get a Milwaukee
I use my knives everyday.
Solid!
To be honest: stop filling phrases.
I use my knife every day
Where is your sebenza?
In a dealer somewhere ready for me to buy it 😭
@@RonKwok I thought you unboxed one in TH-cam shorts?
I carry a wig
