I've been working on upgrading how I go in to the world every day. Bought a Crossbreed holster for the Taurus so I can get my CCW again in January. I got an Amazon gift card for Christmas and order these to become part of my daily carry...

I also got a gift card to Cabelas and used it to buy a couple button up shirts in tall so I had some more cover in the back and a new belt. Looking forward to ending my days as a sheep and entering the world daily as a wolf.

The light is great! I have one I use every day at work!

I am amazed by you fellas. I have never put the time into thinking about what kind of pocket knife I'm going to carry. In fact, most days I don't even have one with me. When I need a knife for something, I usually have one or two in my truck that will serve the purpose, but I rarely plan ahead as you guys do. Well done.
Right there with ya Brock,i usually have a cheapo on me and they do the job and i can keep em good and sharp.
I just put a little loktite on all the screws and good to go.
Haven't broke one yet and if i do i got replacements at $3.87 a knife at walmart.lol
Works just as good as those 100 dollar knives.

I didn't need a $700 smart phone either when they came out. I did just fine with my old Razer flip phone. But now that I've owned them, no way I could go back.

I've got two different knives I carry now, but I'd really like to get a nice folding knife. I've got a cheap Gerber and a Buck now, but wouldn't mind dropping two bills on something nice. It would be my luck I'd lose it in the first week though!

I'm a middle of the road knife guy I guess. I don't use dirt cheap blades but I don't break the bank on them either. I usually carry a Gerber and I keep a couple in the truck, the boat, and in other random places. I tend to use higher quality knives for my butchering needs, since those never leave the house or the garage. For EDC and work knives I just don't see a need for a high dollar knife. As long as they're sharp that's what matters most. But I can understand why others would carry better knives. It's like anything else... I could kill ducks just fine with an old 870 but instead I prefer to hunt with a high quality autoloader. I get it.

Picked up this light to go along with my daily carry essentials. It's no high dollar light but its 325 lumens, has high, low, and strobe along with a battery lock twist by the cap. Runs on 2 cr123 batteries. $30 Walmart special. Went there to get the wife a dozen roses and had to get myself something lol

325 lumens...how do you use that every day? That'd be border line too bright to see anything up close. I'm don't remember what the one I carry is, but it's even too damn bright for a lot of things. Gotta do the triple tap to dim it down.

I like that bezel though, looks like the surefire defender my wife carries. And it hurts like hell when she hits you in the ribs with it...
