Everyday Carry

Last year, Nitecore put a new emphasis on "flat light" with its EDC27. After a little electronics tinkering, it's bested itself with the EDC25, a slightly lighter flashlight that fires out 3,000 lumens with more throw, intensity and overall runtime.

The James Brand's new Warrick is part bit cache, part torque-boosting multi-driver. Its slim, flat form makes it easy to slide into the smallest of pockets and carry along the extra torque needed to take care of stubborn screws.

Craighill has teamed with Chen Chen and Kai Williams to create a truly unique knife. Inspired by the snake of the same name, the wavy Sidewinder flipper does away with the typical fixed handle, relying on motion from all its components to open.

DailyGizmo has pared the utility knife down to its most basic form. The result is an attractive cutter currently charging through its Kickstarter campaign that could truly sharpen up your everyday carry gear.

Improving on what users loved about its predecessor and then adding extra features, the Phantom 2.0 folding utility knife is claimed to now be even more perfectly suited to hiking, hunting, camping, wilderness survival, or regular everyday use around the home.

A startup operating out of Canada has launched a Kickstarter to fund the production of a pocket-friendly screwdriver that stores bits within its frame, and also serves as a bottle opener, box cutter, hex wrench and ruler.

Yes, you're right, there has been a glut of titanium multi-tools on Kickstarter and Indiegogo over the past few months. The TiSpanner is a bit different, though, in that it features a little adjustable spanner wrench.

While everyday carry multitools are great at many things, they can fall short in the measuring department. The new titanium Tiroler ring fixes that by adding the ability to take measurements to your EDC kit, with a smart portable design.

Introducing the TiFlip, a sleek, versatile, lightweight precision flip knife that’s designed to handle all your cutting needs, from opening envelopes to cutting cords and zip ties. It even glows in the dark.

These days, thanks to a booming everyday carry trend, there are lots of pocket-sized tools that pack mighty features into mini packages. Thus is the case with the new Wayfinder titanium flashlight now charging through its Kickstarter run.

Streamlight is well known for portable lighting solutions, but now it throws some weight into the EDC case segment. Its rugged new SpeedLocker keeps the likes of watches, passports, and even small firearms safe behind an analog punch code.

Leatherman has introduced a compact option for organizing and carrying everyday multitools and provisions. The sleek, new Adapt case keeps everything neat and close at hand and even provides a handy integrated tray on which to do multitool work.
