Junkyard - TBH that's kind of been my overriding feeling about this EDC lark since finding out about it. It all seems to be about preparedness, and yet keeping fit and nimble, and learning basic self defence probably does more good than carrying pocket fulls of tactical gear. All the knives and torches in the world won't stop a fat boy from being the first victim of a zombie onslaught.
Mind you, if it's anything like MTBing, on EDC forums there's probably already threads entitled [i]"Have self defence courses become the latest de rigueur accessory?"[/i]
By the way, I think the fact that this thread has turned mainly into a gun conversation perfectly illustrates the image problem EDC suffers.
Makes going top a camping store over in the states interesting,

Hmm feels like somethings missing oh yes must remember to pick up a m16 on the way out.
I also love the statistic that owning a gun increases your chances of being shot
Correlation, not causal link....

Wonder if you could bungiee an AK 47 to the top tube?

I was about to say that. My first visit to Walmart was an eye-opener. It's exactly like ASDA, only with a heavy-duty firearms section inbetween the dairy aisle and the baked goods.

Fair point...
I love the fact that he didn't take a firearm to Disneyland was because it would have been too much paperwork at the airline and not that its frighteningly paranoid to carry one in what would seem to be a relatively safe children's environment! Freak!
Haha, the above video is hilarious.
I do like the first video's incredibly phallic knuckleduster thing.
Tactical Pens for those who aren't scary survival types are designed to operate in environmental extremes (underwater, deserts etc) and are strong enough to be used as tools/weapons if need be. Some are even sharpened at the tip so when the nib is retracted you can stab people.
We have some at work for marine salvage work as they hard to break and work in the wet and filth, haven't tried stabbing anyone as yet.

Hey, apparently my car's a phallic symbol too. It falls somewhere inbetween 😉

Small but known to cause damage and allow an opportunity to escape when thrust into an attackers face.
LOL at that video!
