This Might Actually Be the Future of Everyday Carry
And a legitimate news story about keister carry

File this one under “suboptimal carry methods.”
A Cleveland man was arrested after breaking into a Honda dealership, where police found a bag of stolen key fobs, knives, and credit cards. On the way to the station, he casually informed them he had another knife… in his rectum. I’ve never been one to recommend keister carry, but this week we’re looking at better ways to carry: a full Bass Pro EDC, long-awaited Malibu restocks, and a fresh Deep Cuts.
Let’s do the damn thing.

This Week At BDEDC
Deep Cuts
While we touched on the Hacksmith Smith blade in the last EDC Weekly, it was announced after we shot Deep Cuts. But we had already shot a community conversation talking about innovation in the everyday carry space. So it worked out perfectly. We discuss innovation in the everyday carry space, do a deeper dive on the Smith Blade, and we also introduce a new challenge I’ve been kicking around for a while now.
There’s that and more in this week’s Deep Cuts.
Bass Pro Shops EDC
ICYMI, we went to Bass Pro Shops to pick up a Leatherman Signal and ended up grabbing an entire EDC. Check out the best fully carry you can get from Bass Pro Shops, all for under $325.
Carry Commission Drops
This week at Carry Commission, we restocked some spicy exclusives. For your keys, we’ve got several different MQR key solutions from Urban Carvers and the CC Brass Screwdriver Keychain.
Finally, after a long hiatus, we restocked the Pro-Tech Malibu in Black Topo with a 20CV Reverse Tanto blade and a pearl button inlay.

Carry of the Week
I am pretty new to the EDC thing. I’m still figuring out what I like and what I can afford.Everything pictured are fairly budget items but work really well. I picked the Kershaw up randomly in Walmart for $15. I recently discovered Bladebinge, so I already have a few replacements lined up!
Not really looking for help. After consuming about 1,000,000 hours of YouTube videos think I have a pretty good idea of what I want. Just happy to be considered.
