Re: Micro EDC

Anyone think this is too much? Or anything more I might need? If we are talking 'True EDC', then for "me" it has to fit in my wallet or on my key ring, anything else goes in the GHB which will normally be in the car. The view I take is a bit like when you are told to clear out your wardro...

Re: Moving to an island?
