Yes. Do EDC first aid. I’m a doctor and have been trying to think through this for my own carry. Definitely a danger of “too far/much,” but having a paramedic discuss thoughts would be great.
-
Would love to see a practical first aid kit
-
2 recommendations: for Jamie a stack of "Tough Notes" would be very very useful to him. Also 6" tape measure..surprisingly helpful.
-
Nice EDC! My grandfather used to cut his nails with a pocket knife. He tried to teach me to do it when I was 5, but it scared me and I gave up. 61 years later, I tried it again and it still scares me. I'll stick with the nail clippers, lol
-
I loved the back and forth between the two of you about what you carry and why. I also think your point about making your EDC kit your own and not just copying someone else's choices is important.
-
As a fellow photographer and edc guy, im a big fan. I found white gaff tape is nice to have with a mini sharpie. So good for labeling things on the go.

I work in the oil field. I fly in helicopters to work. My kit has literally everything. Small binoculars. Compass. Full first-aid kit. OTC med bag. Anker 20,000 battery with any cord you could think of. It's really just too much to list. I can't carry a knife though 😢. But I do have great scissors in my bag. Pockets I carry the olight 1REOS, Gerber Shard. Mr green clippers and a TEC titanium tape. I've been a EDC guy all my life. I didn't even know it had a name tell a few years ago. This was the first video I've seen of yalls. Definitely subscribed! But really though, everyone that knows me calls me MacGyver or Go Go Gadget.

Would absolutely love to see an EDC first aid video, especially from a practicality standpoint.
-
Let's do it Jamie, I’m sure you have a lot to bring us!
-
An EDC first aid kit video would be great especially with Jamie’s experience and knowledge. Nail clippers are never out of reach. I put together an extended EDC kit recently in a Maxpedition Janus pouch. Feel so much more comfortable and prepared having it in by backpack. I add a strap to so it can carried separately.
-
Thanks you guys. I realized I need something like this when I had to leave home last February during an ice storm with the power out and tree limbs falling on my roof. Most of ideas for go bags I found online were pretty extreme, but the videos you've done recently have made realize that I need to put something together. Even if it's not perfect, at least I'll have a bag to grab in an emergency.
-
I travel extensively with my nail care Swiss Card and have never had a problem with TSA. Great job guys!
-
Keys, wallet, phone, watch, knife, multitool, flashlight, pen, handkerchief, pistol, extra mag, compressed gauze, all on my body or in a Maxpedition pouch that fits in a cargo pocket. Have a backpack with lots more in the car.
-
nice edc jamie. got a big tip by a friend. i used to wrap duct tape on lighter too, its actually better to wrap on an old plastic card. If you finish up a lighter, you don't have to discard the unused tape
-
OMG, YES!!! A first aid kit video by a professional would be amazing! You will get a million views on it just from me watching it over and again!
-
Being a total corporate desk jockey, I absolutely love watching these videos to see how the other half lives… clearly there could be some security safety issues, but I would love the idea of having a giveaway for the 150k subscriber mark where you allow a viewer to spend a weekend with Jamie, Zac (and maybe Ben?) bumping around, doing whatever the heck you guys do on a weekend that could lead one to use all the stuff in your edc packs! It would be a total eye opener for someone like me and a dream come true for others with lives more similar to yours! Charge on, gents!
-
Jaime PLEASE give us a first aid video! I'd love to hear your 2 cents on what's practical to carry as well as potential recommended courses to take so i can be as useful as the tools i carry!
-
What Jamie had to say about the leather man, I was a bit surprised! I believe a leatherman should be carried on a working man at all times. Very useful. If you don’t want it in your pocket, then get a holster and put it on your belt! The battery pack is large. But I understand that it comes in handy for someone who works with a laptop. And it’s handy to charge a phone or ear buds, etc. but for the average joe, a smaller battery, like a pocket juice, is fine. I personally carry smaller edc items. I bought the knops bit driver. Honestly, I’m not working with computers or setting up film equipment normally. I haven’t used this tool, and I’ve been carrying it for almost two weeks now! If it came with a Phillips that would be nice. And if it had a pocket clip. Good video! Thanks guys!

I feel like I tell you this on every other video but i love your channel and love your enthusiasm. I just reorganised my EDC bag two days ago, and your videos helped me a lot, I live in Slovenia and work as a live sound engineer and people here do not carry knives that much for some reason but they always ask to borrow mine and same goes for multitool. I bought Knipex mini cobra because of you Zac and thought it will replace my Leatherman Sidekick since i have a knife on me anyway but it didn't, it just expanded what i can do with my EDC kit, also that video with Ben about screwdrivers helped me, can't get his screwdriver yet here but i got iFix it one and took the most useful bits and put them in, literally feel like there is nothing i cannot fix right now with it. Thank you guys for awesome tips and for actually useful info, most of those EDC kit videos are way over the top and i feel like people add stuff just because they can which is missing the point if you ask me.

Pen in pocket 100%. Great video my dude.
