Hey all,
I’m about to make my first post here on /r/EDC.
I’ve always been the type to carry useful stuff with me, and right now my setup is somewhere between a bike tinkerer and a student. Here’s what I’ve got so far:
* Moleskine bullet journal
* Fountain pen + highlighter
* Multitool
* Small Swiss Army knife (maybe redundant with the multitool?)
* AirPods
* Loop earplugs
* Papercut wallet
What do you think — anything I should add to my EDC?
I do sometimes carry bigger stuff like a laptop or a stand, but this is basically my core setup.
Curious to hear your suggestions!

Can’t go wrong with a small flashlight. It’s way better than the one in your phone!
What foundain pen/ink are you rockin?
* I’d switch to A6 size journals for portability (I prefer softcovers, but hard may work).

ps: Feel free to get used/eBay stuff. It oftentimes is just as good. Plus – I like stuff that looks well-used vs the “look at my shiny new never-used-in-real-life EDC.”
58mm SAK is never a redundancy, it’s extremely useful. I carry one on my keychain, and I probably use it more on a daily basis than a Leatherman or Swiss Tool on my belt
