I know. Another EDC savings post. Hank and I keep looking at traffic data and thousands and thousands of you guys love these. It’s easy to understand why. This is stuff you carry around every day—it’s right there in the name. If you’re going to go through the trouble of humping it around every time you leave the house, you want it to be worth the weight.
I’ll warn you before you scroll any further; there isn’t a single knife in the list below. I have linked to things like a pen and notebook set that works even if they get wet or greasy. Yes, I carry my smartphone with me at all times, but I’m old school. Most of the time, I’d rather write important things down on paper rather than typing them into my Notes App. Speaking of pens, a nice one should be part of everyone’s EDC, even if you don’t use the term EDC.
This titanium pen with a tungsten glass breaker is useful every day. At the same time, it is also a tool you’ll hopefully never need. I also included a genuine Fisher Space Pen, because I love them. But, unfortunately, I’ve gone through a lot of them. My personal Space Pens are probably still rolling around under the seats of press cars all over the world. I am the perfect candidate to save a little money by putting them Subscribe & Save.
Titanium pens aren’t all that’s on the menu. I travel a lot, or at least I used to. Having your own travel utensils enables you to get takeout and eat in a park, on the beach, or even back in your hotel room. Check out these Titanium Sporks for $12.99 and Titanium Chopsticks with Carrying Case for $16.99. Combine those with a collapsable water bottle and you can dine anywhere.
