Nutnfancy's ROL EDC System Part 1

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ย. 2024
- PART 1 of 2: Here is a rundown of Nutnfancy's Every Day Carry (EDC) system under the Rule of Law. This system represents, for Nutnfancy, the best blend of capabilities and mobility found so far. Certainly there are lots of different options and methods of EDC out there with different gun, knife, and tool options some being a lot heavier and more capable than these. And if these items are indeed carried in completeness and with high regularity then I'll extend my congrats on finding a system that works for you. However with this system I have yet to see or run into any friend or cohort that has more capabilities than I do. I'm always the one fixing things, patching people up, and fulfilling the sheepdog role with this system. And, if the jurisdiction legalities permit, I always have it on me. That's because it is easy and comfortable to carry. I minimize weight and bulk and integrate most things into a quick attachable system like a quality and small fanny pack (like the Mountainsmith Vibe II shown) to greatly simplify the system. Capabilities include a semi-auto Kahr PM9 pistol with 19 rds, Al Mar Eagle knife, Leatherman S2 Juice, Streamlight Stylus flashlight, Orion whistle, flat tweezers, Neosporin antibiotic, nail file and other various hygiene items, wallet (includes some bandages and alcohol wipes), and a pen. As shown, gun is carried in a bellyband with some velcro modifications made by Nutnfancy. Downsides of this carry are slower draw and inability to re-holster easily but they are offset by the ultra concealment and comfort qualities of a good bellyband system (riding high around chest area btw). In Without Rule of Law (WROL) scenarios, the EDC will change to address possible higher threat scenarios where the threat of confrontation is higher (vids on that maybe later). These WROL situations would utilize higher and faster accessible firepower, body armor, and perhaps more substantial blade options. But for EDC ROL use, this system has proven quite effective.
Agreed - Until you carry these items, you don't realize how handy they can be. I have a SOG power tool that sat on my dresser for two months before I started to carry it. I left it there because I didn't think I needed it. Now, I can't imagine a day without it. Same goes with a knife, and light. They just make life easier.
American EDC are amazing. I was pissed off when the iPhone 5 was bigger. Real estate on my body is very high value. Torches, penknives ,multi tools, guns, extra mags, tweezers... And a partridge in a pear tree. How big are your pockets? I struggle with 4 keys a phone some loose change and a wallet.
I'm a LEO and I carry an XD9 sub-compact, which I qualified with, and either a ZT 400st or a Cold Steel Recon 1 and a fenix flashlight. I also have the maxpedition versipak that is awesome for me. I live in the south where it is shorts weather most of the year and it gets hard to carry off-duty plus a knife and a light and your wallet, cellphone, commision ect. in just your pockets.
That Al Mar Eagle actualy is the "Ultralight" 1005UBK2 model. Looks perfect for what I want, was going to buy a Benchmade 551 but this vid made me change my mind. 4"Aus-8/2 0z/good handle,thumbstuds and flatground= perfect EDC. Thank you Mr Nutnfancy
:-) You have two extra 7 round mags and a 6 round in the Kahr. If you are doing plus 1 you have 21 rounds in all. You have great videos. Thanks for all the information you gives us.
I have a lot of different EDC options, including TAC carbines, and I carry knives and a gun of choice every day. On the gun, I usually carry my Kahr P45, or my Taurus Millenium Pro 9, with extra mags. My Chive is around my neck, and usually my Tenacious or Flash II in my waistband. Love your vids, Nutn'...
I carry: Class 3 machine gun with a shoulder holster, 2 desert eagles (one on each hip), an MP5K attached with a sling, I try to a grenade with a spare if necessary, I carry two maglight LED's, 2 cell phones (1 for calls and 1 for games), I keep an Ipod Touch (for movies and games), an Ipod Nano (in case i need to wait on someone), I carry a machete because you can never be to careful if you need to cut any rope or zombies. This is my typical bare minimum EDC, I would usually carry more.
Coleman has a super bright led series called Coleman Max. They have a pocket sized 3 inch light with either push button on/off or momentary on. Light out put is 115 lumens - it's bright in the daylight! $25 at wally world. There are several versions. I got the smallest to carry and the next size 2AA for my son for camping.
Normal: Kel-Tec P3AT w/ one spare mag and Gerber EZ-out. When Practical I carry my Sig P250. Sometimes I add Gerber Compact Multi-tool w/ slide out pliers. Thanks Nutn!!
Really great vid, like how you explained your concept of ideal EDC then showed how each piece fit in to it.
The Kahr is also my fav carry gun. Most of the time a carry a full size Spyderco blade.
I carried a Streamlight Stylus for the longest time. Lighting became too redundant after I bought a smartphone, Zippo lighter and small red LED keylight. Now my Stylus stays in the glove box (I'll use it before my EDC stuff to conserve battery life). Great $20 or so gift idea for friends and family.
perfect. very well perpared for any situation! OPTIONS! only thing i would add (and will when i get my ccw) is a couple large extra strenth zip-ties. never know when theyll come in handy for tieing something up or securing a bad guy
Hey just wanted to say thanks for this youtube project, I am greatly appreciative that there are sheepdogs out there, before tonight i had no idea in my head there were guys out there like you. Thanks for being SO informative. I am watching your videos, and subscribing today so i can catch new videos!
Great video. Never occurred to me to carry a nice back up shiv. I prefer my compact 45 over a 9mm, but in the event of WROL I'd be carrying my full size 45 or 357 9 shot revolver with a machete for a back up shiv.
I received my Aegis AE-02 yesterday. It's very nice.
I'm preparing my own review video, and I'm struggling to keep it under ten minutes.
Thanks everyone. My bad, the .38 is a considered by most to be a full size caliber and is a valid carry choice. Review on Taurus coming.
Love the nutnfancy reviews and videos.
I've been carrying the Kahr PM9 for almost 2.5 years. Mine has the black Tungsten DLC coating and it really is a Diamond Like Coating. 24/7 back pocket carry including hiking and white water kayaking. Blow of the pocket lint and it looks brand new.
I found nutnfancy because I'm shopping for a primarily tactical knife for EDC. Leaning toward a SOG, either Trident or Aegis AE-02. I love lightweight, but I like what I get for a couple of more ounces.
Exactly. With no weapons in hand vs an opponent that has weapons you have so many options: you can just beat that dude up, or you can take his knife and use it against him (90% of knife injuries in combat happen with the attackers weapon stuck in the attacker), or you can use his gun against him. Some1 who relies on weapons alone is lost if stripped off those weapons. If you know how to use your body as a weapon you're always armed.
Leatherman S2 juice is indeed awesome. Nutn is right. A FANTASTIC pair of scissors. I have used my S2 a ton!! Bought mine from ycs..
If Illinois ever passes the CCW law. I think I'm going to go with the Jetfire because of the POU's you mentioned in your updated series of EDC videos. I wouldn't have a problem packing that on my person everyday due to its tiny size and that its better to have it than not. I'm really checking out the Kel-Tec PF9 through your videos as well.
Yet another great video. Good heads up on the stylus. I've been carrying my fenix Tk10 everyday while I look for a smaller edc flashlight.
I have heard a lot of good about the Kahr pistols. I haven't had experience with the cw9 but i have shot a cw40 and a cw45. The 40 was good, but the 45 jammed a lot
The annotation "I know, I'm sick" LOL :D
Great to have you come along! -- Veri (Nutn's sister)
Good review, I carry the KAHR MK40 Elite everyday, In my opinion it is basically the same size as the PM9 but all stainless with a little extra weight. (I like the weight control) Although I never really carry a Knife, Tool Kit and all that fun. Guess if I need to MacGyver my way out of something I'll be screwed!
For a shotgun or a rifle, you don't need any license (at least where I live and everyone I've ever known has lived). For a handgun, in some cities, you don't need a permit to purchase, but for concealed carry, you need a Handgun License and a Carry Permit.
Sweet stuff Bro. I have the stylus and love it. Also I've been carrying my KahrCw40 most of the time now, although I switch between the G19. I have more mags with the 19, so I have extreme firepower with it. I bring that when I think theres more of a probability of something happening. I love the Kahr though, Sometimes I forget it's there. Especially when driving, the 19 can be uncomfortable at times. Awesome 5 star vid, looking forward to P2.
@VoidOnTuesday I'm not missing your point. The main point is it's a catchy catchphrase to remind people that banning something doesn't matter much to people who break laws. It may not be a perfect statement, but it gets the point across. If you think the statement is redundant unto itself, that's cool, and quite arguably correct, but it's still catchy.
I'm to young to carry firearms but i carry a Gerber compact sport multi tool 400, Gerber paraframe, a keychain whistle and a key chain flashlight, flattened duct tape, and a cell phone of course.
I was wondering what your opinion on an EDC knife that has to be under 2.5 inches blade length. Most of your EDC knives are generally larger than that. Great VID!!
It may also sound like that b/c you already know a lot of what he is saying. For some, it is new info so he gives it to them on their level. He has a pretty diverse audience and he seems to try hard to span the breath of it. Personally, I think he does a pretty good job.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THE VIDEO, how you include, a compact pistol, a folding knife, an a multi-tool, not to mention the flashlight!!! who would of thought to carry a flashlight. but to be really honest 99% of people wouldn't need a multi-tool, or a flashlight for EDC. but i really like how you included these items in your video. i live in California, very liberal state, where i can barley carry a folding knife. do u have any tips on concealed carry in California, although you are a police officer
The only thing I use for my EDC is hulk hands
I carry a Ruger LCP with 3 mags, a NAA black widow, and a generic spring assist 3" straight blade knife. To me name brand knives mean nothing, they are all a sharp point, as long as they can hold up and can stay sharp thats all I need. My carry system costs in all about $600. Not too bad as it makes me feel/keeps me safe. I never feel under gunned with this system.
@thekiller0673 True, running away (if the opportunity presents itself safely) is an EXCELLENT defense.
But you can't ALWAYS run away. sometimes your with people (like children) who can't run, sometimes you're surrounded or cornered, and in the case of someone who goes postal and just starts shooting people, running away is not an option for the true sheepdog. You have to stop that person from killing any more innocent people. Best way to do that? Meet force with equivalent force. (i.e. a gun.)
Awesome video man, i really liked it and im gonna see part 2 right now.
Thanks nutnfancy for these high quality vids.
Good luck to you.
@tastiewaffles ya, got a few friends doing that and they seem to love it, I just haven't found a comfortable lefty way to carry it, guess it's just not for me love the concept though. Those bmg's are just so much easier to carry around.
I really enjoy your videos .. great job! I hope you continue for a long time.
The boy scout moto is "be prepared" and nutnfancy is always prepared.
Nice Set up. I like my Victorinox Super Champ though. Love the vids. You've taught me a lot!
I do! I forgot to show that. I may post an addendum video to the system b. I also forgot to show the included non-lethal options I sometimes carry as well. Ooops.
because your an officer
does that make it easier to attian a Class 3
thanks much respect partner
keep em comming
3-4 Knives... >.> I guess I am sick as well. Have age of majority however not able to open carry in my sate :( Train for the use and be vigilant. Great Advice as always. Thank You for a cry of Reason.
hey nutnfancy that is a great gun shot my friends. I love ur vids there great please keep them coming. What do u think about the taurus millinium.
In some states (like mine) you only have to be 18 to get a concealed carry permit.
Hey nutnfancy. I just got turned on to your vids by my friend. You've given me a lot of great ideas for training and where to spend my money for gear. Really appreciate it. Just wanted to give you a heads up that the word "tanto" is a Japanese word. It's pronounced like "ah" like when you have your tongue depressed by a doctor. t-ahn-to. Keep 'em comin'!
A+ vid as usual. Dig your system.
Thanks!
@tastiewaffles although fairly complete you seem to be lacking the minigun, went a few years without one but once you start carrying one I bet you'll keep doing it. Personally I replaced my rocket launcer with an rpg, the launcer was just too heavy and bulky for my tastes.
Hey just a sugestion. why not carry a little key chain S.A.K. it has the knife, fingernail file, scissors, tweazer, and tooth pick(can be used for other things). and you wont even notice its there till you need it! and A little keychain maglite, lot of lite for so little of size! great videos keep them up!
He is probably in the National Guard (part time or full time) and a LEO for whatever time he is not doing his military duties. In the US if your in the military (Reserves or National Guard) whatever your civilian job is (even LEO) has to give you as much time off as your Military job requires.
Although he could also be in the Police Reserves...
i have a .38 special and a 9mm ruger with a standard spyderco combat knife(10 in. blade) because i am spec. op. on rare occasions and may not have time to get fully prepared
I have a solitaire with led more. It was a little weak and small and broke after 2 months. Now i carry a little nebo off band flashlight it alot brighter and was only $24 .
I currently don't carry a firearm due to laws, but I never go anywhere (save the Federal building I went today) without a defensive knife. The saying 'Smile, be polite, and have a plan to kill everyone you meet' sounds kinda crazy, but it keeps you and those around you safe!
@Jtactoo Nothing at all. Everyone has different prefferences on what they like and what suites them the best. For me it's a .40 S&W Springfield. For my best friend, it's a 9MM Glock, and his wife a .380 Ruger. For my brother in law, it's a .45 Colt. If you're comfy with a .38 Special, then hats off to you, cause you know what you like and you're comfy with it.
He does a review video on the gun. Just keep in mind he does have a slight bias on weight and size of the gun.
Personally, I can't shoot subcompacts worth a damn because of my hand size so the kahr or any sub does not work for me. But, the kahr works for him.
@keats27 i believe the glock is generally thicker in girth than a pm9 i could be wrong on that
I'm a prio LE Officer with over 15 yrs of experience, recently change careers to another public service field "Firefighter" I have arrested many unwanted individuals, needless to say that I do carry a fire arm on me daily however, I am concern that I may get stopped, search and their you go, arrested for having a conceal weapon w/out a permit, even though that I am a prior LE and ex Military as well w over 16 yrs, combat disable soldier. I live in Illinois, which is not friendly carry state
@thepowerbill yes it does. if you knew most people carried would you try to rob them?
hi I wanted to know if you could do a review on both da pt 845 and the pt 945. I havent been able to find anything on them. I Really appreciate it and keep feeding us knowledge.
my edc is a small led flashlight, a pocket knife and taurus Millenium Pro 745c and 2 extra 6 rd magazines plus the one in the weapon and of course one in the chamber giving me 19 rd of 45acp in a 21 oz package about the same size as the Khar pm9
ill check it out, sounds interesting. Thanks for the heads up. Knowledge is power!
Your in the middle of bloody nowhere with no cell phone service. You are the only thing that can protect you.
my edc consists of:
1.sawed off 12 gage shot gun
2. .50 cal strapped across my back
3. 2 uzis in shoulder holsters
4. 3 frag grenades in my boot
5. a cellphone gun
6. a wallet gun
7. a shoe knife
8. a three bladed slip joint pocket knife
9. a led pipe
10. a machete
11. a rocket launcher
12. 27 throwing stars
13. a chipmunk trained to kill
14. a tazer
15. a billy club
16. and a tooth pick
Got to love Al Mar knives. SERE is a good one to.
In short, you're right the most of the time a gun is used it's not even fired, and the "average" gunfight is over very fast with 3-5 rounds fired. BUT, should things go differently, say multiple attackers, jacked up on drugs, w/e, the worst thing in the world is *click* when you pull the trigger, and knowing you don't have an extra mag (or two or three). Carry what you're comfortable with, but if you can manage, more ammo is good. May not use it, but you might not live to regret not having it.
@thepowerbill you should look at the stats where a high % of people carry and a place that dont. big difference
today is my birthday. I'm 18. soon as I can I'm going to start packin. and that kahr PM9 apeals quite a bit too me.
First off I love your reviews! I watch at least 1 a day! I live in Canada and do not carry a pistol; Wish I could! But for EDC in my city (population 35000) It would be totally unnecessary .I have never even had an encounter where I've needed to pull my knife(currently SOG Flash 2). Granted Ive been inFist fights before And had a knife pulled on me .I just dont think shooting(killing) is necessary , A 22'' baton would do fine in my eyes. Im only saying this for where I live;
Less weight, thanks
I can't get my hands on a gun atm, but i always carry a knife of me =D.. and i just bought a nice Ka-bar, fixed blade nex gen.. ;) love it..
great video but why do you see on these edc videos that no one carrys a durex or 2 ?
Fair enough. I wasn't too clear about that myself, thanks for the input.
Nutnfancy does love him some acronyms!
MY EDC Package:
1. Springfield XD sub compact, holds 12 .40S&W, + 1 extra full magazine
2. Rossi .357 6 shot revolver
3. My CHL/CCW permit, keep it with me 24/7
4. S&W label 9 LED, 3 AAA battery flashlight
5. 4" Cold Steel lockback knife
6. Fully charged cell phone
7. mini Bible....hey you never know when you'll need it
8. Trojan condom......hey, you never know when you need it :-)
i carry a leatherman charge al, a olight m20 with rechargables, my cell phone, a bit kit for my leatherman, a gerber curve on my keychain and a pelican 1930 L1 also on my keychain i just upgrade to the charge from a gerber flik and i used to also carry a mini maglite 3aa led just did some uprgading after two years
my edc glock 21 and that 5" cs tanto. sweet blade.
Best line nomination (at 6:21) "...Now... Let's talk about my loads."
dude you said you carried 19 rounds but i count 21... The mag in the gun is a 6+1 the two on the table are 7 rounders, I bout the Kahr PM9 because of your vids dude thanks for the wonderful reviews!
you mentioned using blazer ammo, i've been told it's prone to case ruptures and Kaboom's have you heard of or experienced either?
kind of sort of. A good example of WROL would be things like post-hurricane/earthquake, whatever. Times when EMS/FIRE/POLICE will be too busy dealing with the disaster and its effects, than to just patrol, and that sort of thing.
Actually, you can have it fully loaded (clip or whatever) but you can not have a round chambered. It takes me 1 second to chamber a round so no big deal.
Dude carries a TON!
Hey Nutn, I know you've checked out a lot of fire arms including glocks...so why the Kahr PM9 over a same caliber/size glock?
Sounds cool,thanks.
Large 4" voyager, .45 1911 etc.
Great vid i cant stop watchin em ha!
I did. I told my hubby too. It pissed me off! They trust him with a gun on duty but somehow he's not trustworthy off? WRONG. -- Veri
NutnFancy...considering that this video is 6 yrs old, do you still choose the Khar PM 9? After your excellent reviews of the Walther PPS, the Sig Sauer P938 and the Shield, have you replaced the Khar with one of these options?
is the almar eagle still in production. for some reason I can't find one.
why are steel liners in folding knives a bad thing?
man i would love to carry, but i live in jersey and there is no way i can get a concealed carry permit
@thekiller0673 Well, Good luck with the whistle and the strobe light. I just think that most people, if pissed off enough, people can get over minor annoyances like the strobe light, and if no one hears the whistle, you're outa luck.
i second the request for the jericho 941 review.
I gotta check that out thanks for the tip.
running awey is the best thing in most cases, i don't yous a gun, a knif or even my fist, i just run awey if i can, but i never leave a friend behind.
Just got a PD30 and it's sick
Most likely when a gun is pulled out the criminal will retreat, but in the worst case scenario.....when attacked by a large group or in the middle of a firefight, you will want to have the option of an extra mag
The Ruger LC9 is CA approved. Small Single stack 9mm that is reliable
Can't watch these on my mobile device...can this be changed???
I'm Australian so what I said is in effect in my country, I have never seen a gun other than on a cop, not saying that criminals don't carry guns where i am.But I have never heard of a person in a home invasion style scenario.
