WOW Shane, that's a lot of stuff. Ok what I carry. A G19 or G26 (depends of season) on the waistline with a spare mag. A money clip and ID/credit card case. And phone. That's it. Upon getting to work, I put aforementioned items in my locker in my office. I change into hospital scrubs and proceed to my morning rounds, then in surgery. Afternoon back to office to chart patients, back in surgery. Then go home.....a 12 hr day 5 days a week. Every so often on weekend call...in which I stay at hospital due to I reside 75 mile from Nashville.
Good stuff. Not sure if you remember me, I'm the one who asked you about low-profile EDC/CCW sling bags at the BladeHQ re-opening. Wish I knew about the Katara a few days ago when I ordered a Vertx Commuter. I'm sure the Commuter will be fine, but it looks like the Katara has better internal organization, even if it is a little smaller. Also, the high-contrast orange inner lining makes it a lot easier to see and grab things fast. If I need a secondary bag, I know what's at the top of my list now. It seems most CCW bags capable of carrying small laptops are either full-size backpacks or messenger-style bags, and I prefer vertical satchels and sling bags. A lot also seem to always put the CCW pocket directly on the other side of the laptop sleeve, ( I worry about the pistol slide damaging a tablet through the foam ). Putting the CCW on the outer portion of the bag means you've got multiple pockets between them, affording better protection. And it's got enough external straps to be useful without screaming "Tacticool!" and sticking out in a crowd. My only question is if the CCW pocket on the Katara can be opened from both sides or only from the left? Maybe I'm too particular in what I want from a bag, but this one looks very well thought out.
I do remember you! Thanks for chiming in. I must have been picturing my 15" laptop when you brought that up, which does not fit in here. It would fit an 11-13" laptop though, yes. I completely forgot to mention that the CCW compartment is accessible from EITHER side. Totally ambidextrous.
Do you have a cheaper alternative to this bag? I really like the way it’s set up but it’s costly for what it is. I want basically a pack like the Vanquest mobius but with a backpack style sling because the “shoulder” bags hurt my shoulder after a while
It's their Ti S1R II in a unique finish that was made for influencers and affiliates. Tons of other reviewers got them, but they probably didn't show it.
I'm not going to pretend to be a expert in this but you should have some rubber gloves in the bag... It's for your safety if you ever have to help anyone..
Tried using your Olight code on 01/03/19 and it didn't work. Can you confirm if it SHOULD still be valid? Thanks! I really like that iPhone case, too bad I don't carry an iPhone. I will be investigating it for the Android platform. :-)
My EDC bag 1. Large IFAK 2. High output flashlight 3. Fixed blade knife 4. Empty holster for my EDC. (For off body storage if need be) 5. Water thermos, for water or coffee 6. Large multitool 7. Small sanitation kit (TP, wet wipes, Colgate wisps) 8. Spare mag for EDC gun 9. Large bottle of pepper spray 10. Anker battery back for my cell phone, EDC light, and large light in bag.
I don’t agree with every EDC, to each his own, but why are people who only carry “keys, phone, wallet” even watching EDC videos? If you don’t care, what’s the point? You’re ALWAYS going to think people carry too much. Is it just to comment and feel cool or badass?
Don’t show your keys online. It’s possible to clone keys from photos!! This is a beautiful mix between modern and worst case scenario survival mindset blended together. Definitely having a standby go bag in your vehicle that is separate from your EDC is a must for me though.
while it is true that they can. If someone has the knowhow, intelligence, and resources to do that They are going to do whatever it is they were gonna do anyway. regardless if they copied the key from the video or not
Literally all you have to do is trace and outline and cut out 1mm thick plastic to the outline. It doesn’t take a genius to copy a key. No way in hell would I show house keys on the internet. You’re asking for your worst nightmare.
@@Battechofficial Keys are for honest people, man. While certainly possible, copying keys from the internet is not a thing. I can get in your house or steal your car without a key in under a minute and I'm an amateur.
I've never understood iPhone people. Not only does it sound crappy (to the person receiving the call) and break if you breathe on them the wrong way, but one of the main 'show points' is always how slim and sexy it is. Then you have the owners that immediately slap on a case (so it doesn't break the first time its dropped) that makes it thicker than a brick! WTF? You may always want to be prepared but the number of charger cords, cables, adapters etc. you carry is ridiculous. (this is coming from someone who's pack has enough gear to create a small network). I'd recommend you switch to ANY phone that takes a standard micro USB. Switch to the On The Road or other CR123 equivalent lights that has the micro USB port. Its an easy standard. I have several devices but I carry ONE tiny wall wart and a cable and I can charge all my devices as needed. I skip all the silly little "tools" that never work very well and carry ONE leatherman. Nuff said. EDC isn't about how MUCH you carry. IMHO
Len Zielenski I’m a mechanic and tow truck driver I’ve had the same iphone for 3 years never had it break, it sounds great still. Not quite sure where you get your opinions from but to each their own
Sorry, I only speak English. If you meant 'select all devices so that they all use USB type C, then, eh. Micro USB is ubiquitous and will be for the foreseeable future. If I was worried about data transfer, I might consider it, but not as a charging source.
@@TheLateBoyScout you have me re-thinking my bag.. Lol... 5.11 Moab 10. Kwick question: Do you ever find that you have stuff in your bag just because you can get one more piece to fit? I'm working on the essentials but there is a point where it gets counter productive if too much gear is in there... Thx
@@gbruceg5138 At one time, yes. Now, not so much. I try to keep plenty of room available in there for transient cargo like lunch, jacket, extra camera gear, etc.
I can’t carry what you do when I fly. Last time I flew I was pulled aside and stuffed into a bombproof enclosure. They never (TSA) told me why! I finally got released when my wife started screaming that is my husband and my caregiver! Before this I witnessed Muslims being passed on though and I’m a Army Veteran and now a caregiver! No justice. Great video on your EDC though.
Lee Greger Yep. I have a known traveler certificate, am 61, and still get pulled over at the airport. Not to mention I’m in an an airport chair and walk with a cane. I must be marked.

Thanks for the update video.....I also primary carry a 380acp with a 9mm as a backup....
Why did you blur the keys
Obviously had a picture of Muhammad on it
verblvik whoa whoa whoa
Good looking bag. I like Vanquest bags and their innovations.
I like that you continue to use tactical bags in the sub-20 liter category. Keep it up! (Or an update?).
Awesome bag. I could really use a concealed carry compartment like that on my current backpack. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.
Great EDC Bag video! Have a happy new year! 🎆🎊🎈
BudgetBugout You too, man!
Have a Rysh 12 now and debating getting this Katara 16 and the New Maxpedition Riftpoint. I can't decide.
what is the name of this iphone cover?
Is this better than the rush 12?
Your video popped up in my feed so I thought I'd give it a shot. Awesome review!!! I just liked the post and subscribed.
Thanks!
Nice bag. I've really like my Stealth Gear vent core (for the SIG P365). The most comfortable holster I've ever worn, particularly when it gets hot.
Where can I buy that knife patch?

Great video
Appreciated I'm thinking on this bag or their messenger
Nice and detailed video! Is the first with a black katara 16. Thx!!
You don’t have a medic pouch or kit? Do you not think you need one?
Nice backpack. Give me please links on IPhone 7's sheath with tools

Thanks for uploading, that's a great bag!

Yep.
Nice bag, I got the same one. 😎
Very good video as usual...BLESSINGS to you and your family in 2019!!!
Kinda odd that the main edc firearm is smaller and less stopping power then the back up. But hay at least your carrying. Keep up the great content!
Yeah. Go out and shoot someone!! Way to go America!!
Soap and water is as effective as hand sanitizer and doesn't make the bad bugs worse.
No trauma kit?

Mine as well👍
He can do a lot of good with what he has... His tactical pen and shema and handkerchief 550 coard and ban-aids... He won't need his car kit...
