"Also in park" made me LOL!
I'll have to try it out of park next time 😂
Knipex pliers are the best! Spend the extra and get the push button adjust model. With a pair of cobra pliers and a pliers wrench you can take apart the world.
😂
How do the push buttons do when they get dirty? I got these ones so I could easily clean out mud.
@@ThePermacultureConsultantI use 3 sizes of the cobra pliers daily, from drywall work to barbed wire fence, to pulling nails out of old posts, all look like new and work like new. Their cobra pliers and side cutter belt pouch is great and I can fit a small crescent in there with the other 2 tools
...maaan, you got to try it with that truck in neutral dude...😜
Great video as always. What my son showed me with one of those little flashlights, is you can clip it to the bill of your hat; and then you have an instant headlamp. Carry it all the time, and if I'm down on the land away from my house, and it gets dark - I can just keep going...
🙏🙏🙏
Since you are working in remote locations, I would suggest you check out refuge, medicals slik kit and a soft T tourniquet as part of your EDC. Also, I would put a zip tie underneath the switch on your bic lighter to keep it from being depressed.
I`ve started keeping several rechargeable, waterproof plasma lighters that have a small light. I have a collection of very small to large portable solar panels & glass ones (hurricane zone) with all types of charging ports from simple USB, Type C PD, 12v etc. If something happens I can recharge everything here including batteries for radios, flashlights, cooking, refrigeration, freezers, and a small air conditioner.
Since I found your channel a few weeks ago, I found your dad’s channel and now I hear you’re recently married and have a little baby! How exciting and congratulations. Being a grandma I love getting to know the families behind the YT channels and I look forward to the cameo you mentioned 😊
Haha thank you so much! I just assume everyone already knows 😂
You can cut and place old garden hose pieces on your channel locks to avoid marring surfaces.
Also, small pocket flashlight to go with my buck pocket folder...
Thank You William! God Bless Y'all ❤
Love this vid!!! I would recommend if you are cutting cord to tie things off a lot to carry a hank of number 18 or 36 bankline, it’s much cheaper and very strong still and also weather resistant. 550 is better for reusable cordage. I carry a 6 foot piece of 550 cord with a delrin plastic toggle to use it like a zip tie and it’s very handy.
Great presentation. You forgot your most important thing to have with you at all times. Your common sense!
I know. That should be a given. You just haven't met my neighbor. LOL.
You're doing a great job in your explanations.
God bless you all.
P.S. word development for your little girl ... Wu Tang. LOL.
You're right about that 😂 it's definitely in short supply!
June has the "Wu" part down. Thank you Kenneth! (Wu Tang)
Thanks for the info about those pliers. Will definitely get a set. My hands are losing their grip as I get older. I second the person who mentioned carrying an emergency whistle. I also carry a super cheap Walmart multi tool. I kept losing multi tools so I bought the cheapest they had, something like $15. I figured if I was going to have to keep buying a new one it better be cheap. Funny thing is, it's been a few years and I haven't lost it yet! I find that mostly what I use it for is the knife which doesn't lock into place, so might switch it out for just a knife instead. Sometimes they have good ones at the thrift shop for a cheap price. Also I just bought some orange Paracord with a thread that glows in the dark. Not sure why that would be useful but it sounded cool. Putting that on the handle of my garden hand tools to hang them up for storage and make them easier to find.
It's super frustrating losing good tools!
Those pair of pliers definitely require less grip strength. The shape of the head really helps.
Very informational! Love your explanations. Working around here we have HK, hori hori knives(I know-not the same purpose), snips, and I try to keep a pen on me for writing and emergency medical use.
We remember better when actually writing VS typing/texting.
Been wondering about that baby girl!!
That's the way it is for me. I'll completely forget I even wrote anything on my phone.
I'm actually holding the baby while typing this. She keeps kicking her feet on my arm which is making me misspell and respell most of these words 😂 I keep hitting the wrong keys
Great EDC showcase William! Our EDC inventory (wife & I): Kershaw Leek folder 14C28N (stonewash & black satin - USA), TOPS Hoffman Harpoon Mini neck knife 1095 w/leather sheath, Leatherman Wave & Sidekick , various Victorniox multitools & pocket knives, Gerber Dime keychain multitool, Gerber GDC Zip Blade , True Utility Minimalist keychain blade/multitool, Mora Companion, Elderis, & Kansbol (camping & EDC), Olight M1X Striker flashlight, Olight S2R Baton II flashlight, Streamlight Microstream 45lm penlight, Lumitop 440lm headlamps, Nitecore TIP 240lm & Nitecore Tube 55lm keychain lights, CRKT keychain emergency tool (seatbelt cutter), ResQme keychain emergency tool (belt cutter, glass breaker), Mechanix Wear gloves, generic keychain storm whistle, generic keychain whistle secret mini-cache, pens & 3.5 in. notepads, Nite Ize carabiners & keychains, bundles of parcacord, paracord bracelets, Bic & Cricket lighters, Lewis & Clark RFIDf-blocking billfolds
I like the Leek! I bought one for Mom a couple years ago. Y'all got quite the setup! Which one of those flashlights do you recommend for my carry?
A whistle can signal help much more of a distance and works when you become horse. I Carrie a Tops one.
That's not a bad idea, considering I can't whistle 😂
Tops is awesome!
@@ThePermacultureConsultant
Order one of there Knifes and the whistle comes with it. It did fore me anyway. :)
I carry a Ruike 108, Leatherman, Buck 303 Cadet, and an Old Timer 194ot
Dang you carry ALL the knives 😂
@@ThePermacultureConsultant yup the Leatherman only at work , but the others always, they all serve a different purpose.
I'd be interested in any tips you have for sharpening the mora knives. IDK what I did but I haven't been able to sharpen it well.
I'm going to come out with a sharpening video pretty soon. I was also thinking about offering a sharpening, mail in, service.
Great EDC lineup William! For the BIC lighter, I have wrap with Gorilla tape, it works great for quick fixes for patch work or a fire starter.
God Bless!
That’s a good idea! I’ll do that!
For appendix carry, after trying a number of holsters I like the Tier 1 Concealed. I've used the Xiphos v2 for the past 2.5 years with my glock 23 (same size as your glock 19, but in .40 cal).
Thanks for the recommendation on the Knipex alligator pliers. I use pliers so much, I don't know why I haven't carried them yet. For knife, I carry my tanto-shaped blade from Benchmade that was gifted to me while I was active duty.
Thanks so much for the recommendation on the holster! I like that it has that Ulti Clip available. The black series from Benchmade is awesome!
Vedder is good as well
Kabar mule and leatherman signal has been my go to edc for years now. Mule is a great blade with a fantastic lock back on it. I've batoned 2.5 in branches with it and not had a problem.
I have one of the KaBar Mules! I like them, I just wish they held an edge longer.
Armatus carry sheaths are awesome, I've bought one for every fixed blade I've ever carried
I have a multi opener that can even open hard plastic on toys. I mostly open packages and boxes with it. I carry a few medical items I got from In a Pickle. The most important thing I carry is water. I pass out when I am dehydrated. The bags I carry the most have water bottle/umbrella pockets on the sides. Before them I kept losing my water bottles.
I should have included my water bottle! I drink literally a gallon a day for 75 Hard and it's an easy way to keep track.
The Retekess PR15 is a simple, cheap micro AM/FM/NOAA Weather Band radio for those who need quick weather updates. In the 1970s in Louisiana I carried a small transistor AM/FM receiver during any outdoor activities, especially fishing, hunting and camping to detect approaching storms, plus a real glass magnifying glass lens as a last resort for starting fires. I still keep magnifying glasses. Binoculars can start fires too. An AM radio can be put on a "quiet" static part of the band and will detect approaching thunderstorms in the form of static bursts long before thunder can be heard. This likely saved my life several times. Calibrate a smaller, weaker AM receiver by checking the static bursts against radar images of storms as they approach. The NOAA tower/cell phone/radio services may not be functioning all the time, especially after severe weather like hurricanes, but your AM radio will still detect lightning.
Guess I’m adding one of these to the list of presents for my husbands birthday. First is the Bradford Guadiana 3 , and now I need to find out what he needs from what you’ve shown today. Can we get back to digging in the first please; this is getting expensive for ne. 😂
I don’t often remember to carry such stuff since moving to the city years ago, besides what is needed for city living.
If I am leaving the city for a day trip or some other thing then I try to remember pack some important things
Some nice knifes. I have a couple Kershaw (USA made) Launch, with auto open, then a few Chinese made Kershaw. Good video, we need to be ready for anything.
great vid man!
Thanks brother!
Please make more EDC videos. This is AWESOME🎉
Thank you so much!
Not so much new information for me, but i am into that stuff BUT i really like your video a lot and enjoyed watching it, good informations - keep going.
Thank you so much!
Hiya! Enjoyed your video and just subbed ya! I’m on the west coast on the Canadian side and of the border, so instead of a firearm….I’ve got my harmonica. Usually a hohner crossover or a hohner 364. I look forward to checking out more of your vids. Cheers
Thank you so much for checking it out! You got some skills on that harp!
Great measures as a purchasing guide. And the frogs are agreeing with you all the way. What about a first aid consideration? I never go out without a small selection of home cut bandades impregnated with Bedadine( Iodine) tincture in a waterproof, mini, enclosed covering. I haven't used it all that often but it makes me feel prepared.
That's definitely something I'm lacking. I'm planning on getting with Bear's people and finding out what kind of first aid stuff I should be keeping with me and how to use it. Thank you!
Love the Gadsden patch! I was just thinking about a 'Tread On Them' one with the killdozer just today!
Look closer. :)
It's actually a wood chipper with "Pedo's Aren't People" written below it.
Good vid. That's a good belt attachment for your knife..going to use that
It's awesome. The Ulti Clip has great retention. Thank you!
I hope all is well William. Thank you for another video. I appreciate what you do. I’m 24 and am slowly transitioning to growing my own food and relying on myself. I am located in the OKC area. Eventually (in at least a few years) I will move to my family’s land in Ringwood which is 5ish acres of forest with a creek. It has been vacant for countless years. I’m not ready for one now but how much would a consultation cost for you to travel near Ringwood Oklahoma? Peace and blessings to you and yours! Thanks again for your work! You are an inspiration to me!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'll need to know a few more details for me to be able to give you a price. Hit me up when you're ready and we'll work something out. I'll keep these videos coming!
You are right about Gerber. I did a lot of horseback riding in the past and bought one. I could never keep it sharp.
Exactly! They seem to use the cheapest Chinese produced metal they can find.
spyderco endura 4 is my EDC.
Interesting, I always have a ranchers pocket knife on me and.... are you ready? A pair of plain finger nail clippers you will be amazed how handy they can be. I would suggest Bill's silver grippers tweezers check them out they are small and be carried on a key chain or lanyard.
One last thing consider a handy walkie, GMRS and/or ham.
Thanks for sharing
Ole Texas Coot
I would have never thought of keeping fingernail clippers with me! I'll have to try it out. I do need to work on communication especially while I'm out on consultations. I'm in some pretty remote areas sometimes. Thank you!
@@ThePermacultureConsultant holler at me if I can help on the communications and the clippers are handier sometimes than side cutters/nippers and knives. I'll try to find you a link for the tweezers also.
The Esee Izula (shorter handle than the Izula II) works well for me since I made my own kydex sheath. It's slimmer and lighter. I carry it appendix but a little more on my left side (about 10-11 o'clock) so it's kind of appendix and kind of cross-draw. But that leaves me room to appendix carry a CCW on my right side at 1 o'clock. I went to the Leatherman Free P4 over a year ago and it's about perfect for me. The only other thing I would add is that I EDC a SWAT tourniquet. It's a little thick, but it folds up into the back pocket to still be thinner than the wallets a lot of guys carry. I'm a believer that if you carry a way to make holes in somebody you should carry a way to plug holes in somebody. And I went with the SWAT, even though it's not the best because it is the easiest to carry and it may work on little kids (I have 3) better than the CAT or SOF-T.
I was thinking I would have to make the same adjustment with the knife.
You're completely right! I plan on taking a medical course with Bear soon and learn how to use all of that. Thanks so much!
I used to carry a Leatherman Skeletool CX but they kept getting hung up on fences so I'd lose them. I carry a Mora now but I like the idea of appendix carry. I also tore the couch really bad one day when the Skeletool clip caught the fabric when I sat down. Wife wasn't too happy about that. -Mike
😂 More knives have been lost to fences than anything else! Thanks Mike!
Great vision. I enjoyed watching how you think and what you carry. I guess you will find speedgoat or mini speedgoat made by Josh at MKC useful. Maybe above all you have. They produce batches in Magnacut. 🔪
I've been dying to check out the speed goat. I might have to sell some knives first 😂
I thought you said MKM at first. I don't know if you've tried them but they do horrible heat treats. Super gummy steel.
As far as knives go I just carry around the Letherman Skeletool. Doesn’t have too any extra tools that I never use. Just pliers, a screwdriver and a knife.
I've seen them but I've never checked them out before. Thanks man!
If you like knives. Idk if you have one already and they are not expensive at all but I love my Mora . Had it for years!
Mora's are awesome! Just a little bulky to be carrying around everyday.
@@ThePermacultureConsultant I can understand that. I created a hole in the plastic sheath and put it on a key ring attached to a leather belt strap and that has freed up and is much more confortable when kneeling down and what not
Creely blades mako fixed blade! He has different steels but I carry my magnacut one every day, love the blade so much
I just checked them out. I really like the Mako and the Omnivore!
@@ThePermacultureConsultant the mako is my true everyday carry. Sheath fits perfectly in the pocket. Next drop I would highly recommend. I am looking to get a Rex 121
Try good video and talk on edc! Thanks for sharing! Interesting channel!
Thank you so much!
Would love to see you compare the Caper and Guardian in a use comparison video
I'll have to do that. As far as the performance, I think the guardian would win with the Magnacut steel. The Caper has a better sheath and is super comfortable.
Emerson is known for the wave for deployment as you demonstrated. Their knives are heavy duty. Also, consider knives with LC200n blade steel, especially for outdoor use.
It seems kinda difficult to find now. Do you have a recommendation? Preferably not a back lock?
@@ThePermacultureConsultant You could go with a fixed blade from Spyderco in Lc200n. That may be a little to bulky and expensive. Maybe a benchmade in one of their stainless steel models.
Do you have any recommendations on plant identification or wild foraging? I was observing my family’s vacant land today and really wanted to know how to identify trees and other plants for future access gaining projects and for propagation at my current home
I would suggest using a phone to look it up online. If out of service range could take pictures to look up later.
Glocks have safeties. Also I love Duluth pants! How do you like white river as a company? Also where’d you find that knipex??
I only have the one knife from White River but I think they do a fantastic job. It's a father and son owned business up in MI.
I stumbled upon them at a Northern Tool in NC.
I think morakniv and hultafors make great work knives. They're tough and cheap.
I've never tried Hultafors but I definitely love Morakniv! I use their carving sloyd very often.
@@ThePermacultureConsultant hultafors is basically just like Mora except the blades seem slightly thicker, real similar though. They also make a chisel knife that I really like.
Kydex holster - way better for consistency with handgun
Gerber mp600 better than leatherman
Malkoff small flashlight
Fixed blade for sure
These items I’ve had the same ones on self for 10 years of hard use . Gerber broke twice warranty is awesome.
Gerber multitools lose me with the sliding pliers. I'm using them in the mud and dirt too often and they never work well. Also, I use the pruning blade all the time on the Leatherman.
I like Gerber knives. U gotta check which ones u get, some are made in China but some are made in USA
Their fit and finish is probably my biggest annoyance with them. You never know what you're going to get.
Check out the Bradford guardian 3.2
I’m going to Blade Show Dallas next week. I hope they have one.
Awesome pocket dump. Not to be that guy, but, the K is silent ie Nigh Pex. Lol. Amazing tools that use german steel. I have a lot of their tools and yet to be disappointed.
I'm not sure if Tool Trucks are a thing down there, but all of them carry knipex up here. If so, I recommend Matco Tools. Lol.
Haha thank you for the correction! The tools are definitely awesome. I received a lot of comments about the pliers and everyone seems to love them.
I seem to have a knife fetish too. I ha e a hard time edc them though. I can't find a comfortable le way to carry. Curious about the vanish holster too or one like that would allow me to carry all on a walk or run (gun, knife, phone, etc).
Maybe try a fanny pack? I have one from Highland Tactical (I think they're $25) that fits my Glock 19 in the main compartment and an LCP in the hidden compartment. Plus wallet, knives, altoids can and the notepad.
Check out the phlster enigma holster. It lets you appendix carry your Glock and still carry your knife the way you currently carry it.
How comfortable is it when you bend over to pick something up? It seems to ride a little high.
It’s below my belt line. So it’s super comfortable. You choose where it sits.
Best knife to get in Europe are Opinel. They are from France and quite cheap but have good quality. So you don't have to bother taking a lot of care for the knife. Also you need two hands to open them, which makes them lagal to carry everywhere in most countries.
I love Opinels! They have such a unique lock. I remember the exact moment I first saw one.
Smith & Wesson 1st Response pocket knife SWFRS BOX
I'll have to check that out! Thank you!
I should carry paracord but i can never figure out how to keep it bundled neatly. It always turns into a tangled mess.
Yeah, it takes a bit of practice on how to wrap it. I might make a "short" on how I wrap it to avoid the tangled mess.
@@ThePermacultureConsultant I'll watch and share it if you do.
Get this man some affiliate links
I'm down for that! Sadly, the channel is too small right now 😂
I picked up a kydex and a ulti clip for the Bradford I carry it in my cargo pocket someone sells them for 20$
I'll have to check it out! Thanks!
I am pretty sure Bradford sells kydex sheaths for their knives.
I guess they do, I just saw them on an IG ad 😂 I really enjoy the comfort of the leather, I just wish it had better retention.
@@ThePermacultureConsultant yeah I understand the comfort thing but if you want to have better retention at least that kydex is an option!
Dang - was totally digging you till you trashed the mp600 - then I realized you don’t have a clue on harduse . All other Gerber stuff sux I agree . Mp600 is hero worthy
Gerber people eat crayons. Leatherman is the best multitool. #facts
You didn’t mention your groove life belt.
I didn't even think about it. Thanks!
Your knife would be an illegal in the UK. This could be solved by rounding the point so that it cannot be used as a stanbing weapon. Yes it makes it less functional, but equally in the UK the only people who can routinely own firearms are farmers. The UK recognises that certain types of weapons are needed so single shot rifles & shotguns can be held. But you must apply for & carry with you a licence and only certain guns like Shotguns can be carried outside a storage container. And shotguns can only be carried breech open and unloaded
Thankyou for your EDC it's super useful. And also best wishes to your family. Never forget to tell your kids how proud of them you are. Self confidence is a huge gift to give your kids a d especially if you can teach them to experience en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Mudita
Would you like to visit Texas? We have some pretty cool guns and knives.
Apparently I have beed banned by the youtube algorithm for speaking about people having rights to due process & the law. Apparently i can only say that I am a survivor & that if you watch the film survivor avilable for free on youtube you can find out what happened to me & others.
Could you email me please? I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
Germans don't pronounce the K. So knipex is pronounced Nipex
😂 I'm filling the Texas stereotype
We all know what they say about men with wide/thick hands... 🤠
😂 Hard workers... right?
Seriously, I don't understand what it is with you US folks and carrying guns. Can someone explain to me the reasoning of the "freedom" to carry any gun at any time even without having any education or psychological clearing? Every sociopath can get one that doesn't make shit safer
Yeah but I bet you can’t carry Lizzo
Even Thor can't carry Lizzo 😂
I think you would like hogue knives. Made in America and they have a great selection.
I would love to try a hogue. I've heard great things about them.
