Read MoreI personally can’t say I’ve ever seen something branded with John Wayne’s name. Maybe I’m 60 years too young, or I’m not watching enough old movies. Nonetheless, this carry by David (@dlangston711) really does grab onto that Spaghetti Western feeling. Maybe there’s a Winchester 1886 right out of frame, who knows.
Read MoreSem Koot (pronounced “coat”) brings something far less common to the EDC table: a yoyo. “Skill toys”, as they are known, are certainly a niche facet, but obviously still live on in the hands of people like Sem. I'm a 20-year-old engineering student from the Netherlands and…

Read MoreBrenton Myers sent in this budget-friendly carry that he says is going to be more refined with more purple in time. He had very little to say about this carry: My wedding ring is my fidget spinner.
Read MoreThis EDC is simply beautiful. Copper and OD green always go well together. The patina that each item has earned is truly marvelous and tells a story of gear oft carried. Noah’s Instagram is @notmyedc, but we’re sure he can claim this one…

Read MoreBlake (@cattastropheeee) shares his work carry, keeping it to the essentials and with a monochromatic theme. How he incorporates each of these items into his workday can be found below: The Leatherman is for anything I don’t want to use my Benchmade for…
Read MoreThis carry from ilikeknafs features all the things we love here at Best Damn EDC — brass, titanium, leather, and micarta. The small fixed blade, made by arguably one of the best in the business, is the go-to for hard use. Below, you can hear from ilikeknafs…
Read MoreSubmissions from around the world are always very interesting, as unique places can have unique sensibilities.

Read MoreBe it for separating food prep and hard use or simply a “less scary” option for use in public, it’s very common to see a single carry tout both a modern locking folder and a traditional slip joint knife side by side. Cole (@c_stegall.photo) shares a carry with this juxtaposition of classic and modern blades…
