  2. Why I never use my gear…

    Why I never use my gear…

    Everyone thinks Taylor keeps his gear pristine and never uses it. The truth? His team won't let him near anything before they photograph it because he destroys everything instantly. This week: the Camp Mule launch, the butter-smooth Arno Bernard Turico, and a $500 utility knife that flips like an OTF. 0:20 Show and Tell Arno Bernard TuracoHawk Knives ShortcutCarry Commission Camp Mule 8:17 Sponsors Work SharpBig Idea DesignBladeBinge — buy, sell, and trade EDC gear safely  Carry Commission 10:49 Community Comments Leave a comment on the YouTube video: https://youtu.be/d79eKSh-H40Or leave an EDC confession: https://forms.gle/rP8ohp7cxRrnxkFe9 17:26 Carry of the Week - Logan Gibbons (@loganjgibbons) Drop AAA Copper FlashlightCraftsman Sebertool M4Narwhalco PenGilTek RUK V2Hitch and Timber Runt 2.0 21:39 What's in my Pockets CC Camp MuleArno Bernard TuracoLeatherman SurgeGarmin Fenix 8 ProCC X Wilder Goods Co HithchhikerBig Idea Design Pocket Pro BronzeGaslight Industries Jerry Can Lighter 22:52 GiveawayFind instructions to enter the December giveaway by signing up for the newsletter: https://weekly.bestdamnedc.com

  4. Why Every New Knife Feels the Same

    25.10.2025

    Why Every New Knife Feels the Same

    This week, we take a hard look at the knife world…and what’s wrong with it. A viewer from the UK sent in a confession about paying nearly $900 for a McNees PM MAC 2 3.5 after taxes and customs. It got me thinking about how we got here—not just the prices, but the endless options, the hype, and the loss of the real story behind the gear. It’s not just about money anymore. It’s about meaning. 0:23 EDC ConfessionalsSubmit your own 5:07 Sponsors Work Sharp Big Idea Design BladeBinge — buy, sell, and trade EDC gear safely  Carry Commission x Paladin33 Waxed Canvas Belt Bag XL18:59 Show and Tell McNees Dixon FragHalf Face Blades Disaster24:00 Carry Of The Week - PCK  Diodrio Pocket OrganizerCoast PX22 FlashlightBlack Diamond CarabinerCasio F105WMoleskine Volant XS JournalRedwing Card WalletKey SmartFisher Space PenOpinel No. 8TISUR Titanium Shackle 26:22 What’s In My Pockets McNees Dixon FragHalf Face Blades DisasterLeatherman SurgeGarmin Fenix 8 ProCC X Wilder Goods Co HithchhikerBig Idea Design Pocket Pro BronzeGaslight Industries Jerry Can Lighter27:01 GiveawayFind instructions to enter the October giveaway by signing up for the newsletter: https://weekly.bestdamnedc.com

  5. The Dark Side of Gear Reviews

    The Dark Side of Gear Reviews

    This week, Taylor takes a hard look at how reviewers and influencers shape the EDC world—sometimes for the worse. Sparked by a viewer’s confession about the underrated Leatherman Free K4, Taylor reflects on how trends, thumbnails, and first impressions can bury great gear before it ever gets a fair chance. It’s a deep dive into bias, influence, and what happens when the loudest voices decide what’s “good.” 0:45 EDC ConfessionalsSubmit your own https://forms.gle/rP8ohp7cxRrnxkFe9 4:57 Sponsors Work Sharp RMX Blackout drops Monday at 10 AM PSTBig Idea DesignBladeBinge for all your buy, sell, and trading EDC needsCarry Commission x Jack Wolf Knives K9 Jack Restock17:38 Show and Tell  Axial x Best Damn EDC Shift V3Work Sharp RMX Blackout Reserve SeriesPro-Tech x Chaves Redencion Custom21:25 Carry Of The Week@UnboundCarry (YouTube & Instagram) Vosteed PsyopBig Idea Design Ti ArtoRovyVon Aurora A4 ProPopov Leather 5 Card WalletApple Watch Ultra 2The James Brand MehlvilleOrbitKey Organizer25:00 What's In My Pockets Axial x Best Damn EDC Shift V3Leatherman SurgeGarmin Fenix 8 ProCC X Wilder Goods Co HithchhikerBig Idea Design Pocket Pro BronzeGaslight Industries Jerry Can Lighter26:13 GiveawayFind instructions to enter the October giveaway by signing up for the newsletter: https://weekly.bestdamnedc.com

  6. Scissors Are Training Wheels for Knife Guys

    Scissors Are Training Wheels for Knife Guys

    One comment lit the fuse: ‘Anyone who thinks scissors are the best tool on a multi-tool is someone who doesn’t know how to sharpen a knife.’ So are scissors just training wheels for knife guys, or the most underrated tool in EDC? Plus a brand-new Leatherman, a hot-swappable blade design, an unhinged confessional, and more in this week’s Deep Cuts.

  7. The Best Tool on Any Multitool

    The Best Tool on Any Multitool

    The knife world’s been busy. Between talk of repealing the Federal Switchblade Act, Knife Rights dragging California’s ban into the 2nd Amendment spotlight, and Spartan Blades planting a flag in Europe, there’s a lot to chew on. Toss in your fiery takes on the one multitool function that stands above the rest, a confessional about Spyderco, and some new gear hitting the desk — and you’ve got this week’s Deep Cuts. Let's do the damn thing. 0:44 Knife Knews AKTI explains the messy reality if the Federal Switchblade Act is repealed. Knife Rights appeals California’s switchblade ban under the 2A; the Ninth Circuit asks for amicus briefs.Spartan Blades launches Euro Blade Worx in the Czech Republic with KA-BAR and Ondřej Němec, shifting from exports to local production.5:24 Sponsors Work Sharp RMX (drops Monday at 10 AM PST)Big Idea Design – Chaves Fountain EDCBladeBinge for all your buy, sell, and trading EDC needsCarry Commission – BROG Bum Bag XL + MMTW Lander 2 restocked9:27 Community CommentsAudience picks for the single best multitool function #OneToolToRuleThemAll 17:53 EDC ConfessionalSubmit your own 18:45 Show and Tell TKC Skeletonized RockwallPro-Tech Duke 222:37 Carry of the WeekAntonio Morales CC x Wazoo Cache BeltBig Idea Design TPT SlideBig Idea Design Pocket Pro PenCarry Commission x Wilder Goods Co HitchhikerAce of Hanks HandkerchiefCarry Commission x JRW Gear Tough ClipCarry Commission x Urban Carver KeychainCarry Commission x Pro-Tech MalibuCarry Commission x CWF Micro Arcadian ClickBest Damn EDC Topo ZippoGarage Built Gear Full Field Notes Book CoverPaladin33 Belt Bag24:55 What’s in My Pockets Tactile Knife Co.

  8. Our Ancestors Didn’t Need These Tools. Do We?

    Our Ancestors Didn’t Need These Tools. Do We?

    This week, we’re going back 5,000 years to see what Ötzi the Iceman carried and what it says about our obsession with modern everyday carry. From copper axes and flint knives to Viking whetstones, we’re exploring whether today’s gear is an evolution of survival or just overkill. We’ve also got a new Show and Tell with the Gatorz Rig, community takes on drop culture and the “curator” debate, and a confessional about loving gear just for the sake of it. Plus, Carry of the Week features the Oz Machine Co. Rosie in MagnaCut, What’s in My Pockets, and another round of giveaways. 0:16 Show and Tell iPhone flashlight trick (still sucks)Gatorz RigBHQ x Tactile Knife Co.
