Come one, come all. Show off the gear you don't leave home without. Wallets, watches, jewelry, knives, guns, cutters, lighters, bags and any other doodads and whizbangs that line your pockets or cover your body

The tactical satchel. This bad mamma jamma is my lunch box, book bag, and catch all for everything that doesn't sit well in my pockets. It's like the Tardis with it's exterior appearance vs interior space

@webmost I'm not sure why it capitalized barlow like a brand. I meant it as a description of a style of single blade non locking folding knife
My previous Barlow had an oversized bolster and a, whatchacallit, kinda oval ended handle. Lemme find a pic
Yeah, this one:
... got that when I joined the boy scouts.
Not a knife expert, don't even play one on TV. I am a collector, tho ... in that I collect exactly one knife at a time, hone it down to a skinny sliver, then collect another... which may take ten years for that cycle to complete.
Whipped it out last night when we took my visiting stepson out to a steakhouse. Dunno how people live without a knife. That shabby serrated foolishness they give you in a restaurant, that just haggles your meat. Disgusting.

I certainly see the difference in the bolsters. Steak knives in restaurants are garbage. If I wanted shredded beef I would have ordered it. I generally cut my steaks in restaurants with my own knife too. It's sharper and I know where it's been
Three bottle openers, a coffee brew mug for the morning commute and ground coffee for the afternoon slump, and two cell phones, a wallet, a handkerchief, pens, and pocket change (not pictured).
I'll gladly bomb you Tuesday for an Opus today.

Keys, triple torch, bic, and Victorinox Hunter. I've alternated between the Hunter and the Tinker for decades. Although, since I've about worn this one out, it's time for a new Hunter.

I have one of those Henry knives given to me by my father. He searched long and hard to find one identical to his since they went out of production several years ago or changed production quality or some such. I refuse to carry it for fear of damaging or losing something I couldn't possibly replace
