The Best Community EDC Gear: Pocket Dump from Jan S.

About This Everyday Carry

Works in the mining industry from Manila, Philippines

Working in the mining sector isn’t your typical desk job—every day is different, and you’ve got to be ready for anything. That’s why my EDC is a mix of rugged, reliable gear and tools that keep me sharp, prepared, and looking like I’ve got it all under control (even when things get chaotic).

The Leatherman Squirt PS4 and Skeletool CX are my MVPs for on-the-spot fixes—tightening bolts, cutting cable ties, or solving unexpected problems in the field. The Spyderco PM2 is my trusty companion for slicing through tough materials or even just opening up stubborn packaging. And the flashlights—Nitecore EDC27 for the heavy-duty stuff and Olight i1R 2 Pro for quick, easy access when I’m rummaging in the dark.

Organization is a must in this line of work, so I use my Orbitkey leather key organizer and Misc. Goods Co. slim wallet for keeping things minimal and neat. The Craighill key capsule for carrying my allergy meds.

My Little King Goods notebook and Rotring 600 pen are perfect for jotting down ideas, measurements, or notes when inspiration strikes—or when I need to look like the guy with all the answers. Rounding it out is my Casio CasiOak solar-powered watch—tough enough to handle the mining grind but stylish enough for client meetings. The Tale of Knives sheath ties it all together, holding my gear securely and adding a rugged touch that fits the vibe perfectly.

This EDC isn’t just about being prepared; it’s about reflecting who I am—efficient, resourceful, and ready to tackle whatever comes my way, whether I’m out on-site or wrapping up a day’s work. Plus, let’s be honest—it’s just plain fun to carry gear that makes you feel like you’re ready for anything.
