As a Gentleman, what items do you have for your daily adventures?

[WILCO]

When I go out and about on my daily adventures, I like to have a rugged pair of shoes, a hanky, pocket knife, Zippo lighter and a time piece such as my favorite wrist or pocket watch (Non digital). For the inclement weather, I like to wear my SFC (Sheet Fok Coat: "Sheet!" if it gets dirty, "Fok!" if I spill my coffee on it.) with a cap and gloves.

What do you folks take on your daily adventures?

[41 mag fan]

I take my foil hat, socks and underwear with me.
The hats so the gov't cant hear my thoughts, the socks so they cant use ground penetrating sound waves to hear my thoughts, and the foil underwear is in case I get abducted by aliens, they can't do any anal probing and insert a tracking device in me to monitor where i am at or am going :bigsmyl2:

[cloakndagger]

Wool fedora (indiana jones pattern) most days, unless i'm going to the coast, then its a heavily raked panama jack. For cold weather one of my leather bomber jackets, sheepskin gloves, egyptian cotton scarf. Pocket litter usualy includes an imco super triplex lighter, a pocket watch and fob, and either my victorinox cadet or opinel #6.

[shooterg]

As long as my ballcap is on my head , the S&W is in one pocket and the Leatherman and some cash in the other, I'm good.

[imsoooted]

pocket accessories: swiss army pocketknife, zippo lighter(for the wife as backup) wiljen's little zoomie, and the few pennies this boolit obsession has left me...o yes....my leash(cellphone)

[Love Life]

Pocket knife, wallet, smokes, lighter, chapstick. a thick sturdy belt. On occasion I carry a gun, but usually some knuckle covers will take care of most anything.

I have a beanie on in the winter and a ball cap on in the summer. I fold the bill of my hats and I do not pull the hat down over my ears. Kids these days...

We are talking about going out in public right?

[x101airborne]

Yep,
Phone, lighter (or two), small flashlight, two pocket knives, a coil of 550 cord, plastic baggie with toilet paper, one of my various handguns, loose ammo or extra magazine, a folded plastic sheet in another bag and a partial roll of duct tape or electrical tape, partial roll of flagging ribbon, rabbit in distress mouth call, and a granola bar and some water (sometimes). That is my general bum around kit. But I am usually on private property not far from either my truck or a house of some sort.

[JonB_in_Glencoe]

Besides the normal daily clothes, Winter and early spring in MN, that includes what the MN farmer calls a Chore coat and Boots. Wallet and a jug of water.

[btroj]

Phone, wallet, keys, watch

[VladViscious]

On days I go in to work, Keys, Buck 186C folder clipped to front right pocket, Pocket change, wrist watch, paracord bracelet, (made by a friend in the Sand Box) 2 GB Thumb Drive with Medical, Dental records and emergency contact info, Right Rear pocket Wallet with usual wallet stuff ans folding money (wife has that), Left Rear, two folded Lint Free cloths, and a folded Heavy duty paper towel, Front Left pocket Tin of Stache Bomb Stache Wax, Cree Ultrafire WF-502B flashlight. Left wrist Casio G-Shock solar Chronograph wrist watch. Felt Hat, Fedora style or ball cap, with appropriate jacket for weather. If it is a non-work day, add to it either my 45ACP commander with two spare mags or my Ruger Vaquero 357 with a 6 round slider.

TANSTAAFL!

[oldarkie]

specticles,testicles,wallet and watch.

[7Acres]

Maratac automatic wristwatch, pocketknife, stick of lip balm, small flashlight, keys, wallet, sun glasses and usually my tiny 380 or my 3" 1911 in a ITWB holster on my sturdy belt.

[429421Cowboy]

At work: Pockets hold my SOG Flash II, lighter, earplugs, money clip that Miss K had made for me by Montana Silversmiths, wallet with backup knife in it. I wear Double H cowboy boots, they are some heavy duty leather, or pacs in the winter during calving, my MHT 10X beaver cowboy hat in the summer, Stormy Kromer during the winter, Wranglers and shirts depend on the day, and my Super Blackhawk over it all, on a heavy belt, held up by a big A Sliversmiths buckle. This is enough to get me through most anything, combined with what's in my pickup. I either wear a Carrhart coat or an oilskin drover jacket if it's raining.

In town, same as above, except Kahr PM9 and Surefire light unless i am going to school and have to go without a gun. Of course that may all be subject to change soon if they pass the bill to let us carry on campus!

[TXGunNut]

Sturdy shoes and clothes are a given, my habits and job require them.
A Cold Steel Voyager and a Leatherman Sidekick for cutlery, a AA LED flashlight for illumination, a smartphone for information and a KelTec P3AT or a Colt Defender as social equipment for when diplomacy fails. I don't wear a cap unless the weather calls for it-which is increasingly common these days.

[geargnasher]

I never leave the house without fire and a blade.

Gear

[David2011]

Going to work and going elsewhere are almost two different lives. My job is professional in an oilfield environment so casual wear is normal.

Work: Company camo or NRA baseball cap, specs, easy open Buck knife, ball point pen, iPhone, safety boots. Portable XM/Sirius radio if I'm gong anywhere that day. It's a long way between offices and radio stations.

Everywhere else: .40, the same Buck knife, cap or hat depending on expected exposure to the desert sun. There's always water, a first aid kit, para cord and other survival items in the truck. It stays in the truck no matter where I think I'm going so it's never forgotten. If I'm going hunting or slope soaring (R/C gliders) in the desert then I add a .45 Colt Ruger Blackhawk with a mix of snake and big loads, snake leggings, small survival pack.

David

[catch 22]

Keys,comb,clip (money),and knife.....if going to work add smartphone.

[stubshaft]

Lighter, pocketknife and wallet are my essentials.

[SlippShodd]

Left front pocket: Money clip w/enough to get me out of trouble or make an emergency gun buy, Victorinox Gentleman's knife for cleaning/trimming my nails/picking teeth/pulling slivers,with a Micro-Light dangling from the split ring, Benchmade Mini-Reflex (clipped to pocket) because I can't open any knife but an auto with my left hand. Right front pocket: Spare change, primary Knife-du-Jour (clipped to pocket) (currently a 3" Gerber Bear Grylls I found in the desert a couple weeks back). Watch pocket: Small, round, flat Buck knife with a super-sharp 1" blade and a bottle opener. Hip pocket: Swiss Army card wallet with IDs, essential plastic, business cards and spare keys to the house and truck. Other hip pocket: A can of chew or a Wilkinson Arms Auto-Nine, depending on the social situation. If the snoose is in a breast pocket, I'm packing the light artillery. Always a belt capable of comfortable, long-term holster support, so there may be a Colt Officers ACP IWB, or a Walther PP IWB, in which case one of the hip pockets may have a spare mag in it. Left hip has an original Leatherman in its leather case on the belt.
The stuff in my truck could support a family of 5 under any set of emergency circumstances except nuclear holocaust (direct strike). My friends don't even question any more whether or not I might have the most arcane thing possible that can be dug out of there.
I should at least carry a mini Bic, but got out of the habit when I quit smoking 13 years ago. Zippos require too much attention and go dry if you aren't monitoring them daily or I'd still carry one. Like someone else said, at least have a backup for my wife who could lose her lighter in the shower.
I have a great waterproof carrier for strike anywhere matches for when I'm in the boonies hunting or fishing; it's an old Benzedrex tube, about the size of a tube of Chap-Stik.

Oh, and most days a cell phone clipped to a pocket or belt somewhere, unless it's one of the ever-increasing days that I'm feeling Reclusive and I "forget" the SOB somewhere inconvenient...

mike

[6.5 mike]

Now that I'm around the house more, a 36 s&w, spare loader, & a gerber folder I used on the boat for years. In town, 96 beretta centurion & spare mag, same knife & what ever else finds it's way into my pockets. I used to have money, but have now forgotten what that is,lol.

[Love Life]

Dang!! I now feel under prepared for my daily activities!! Some of ya'll carry what I use for hunting, not going around town. I don't say it in a bad way, but dang.

[lreed]

[jcwit]

My glasses, couldn't find the car door without them, cell phone, wrist watch "chronograph", keys, bill fold with money usually $1000.00 bucks and credit cards, and a comb for my bald head. Other than what was mentioned, I normally wear Dockers, casual dress shirt, and dress shoes 'I hate sneakers', leather jacket or coat and Veteran BB Cap if weather dicitates.

Oh Ya how could I forget, my sidearm in a leather holster, and my hearing aids.

Big sis is listening.

ISP is sending your comments to one of many goobermint electronic cloud data centers. Programmers/analysts there are sifting, sorting, updating, collectivising, analyzing, categorizing, and assigning you a threat code. Just in case you are called up for assignment to a fema reindoctrination lesson.

Personally I only ever take a hanky and some bubble gum and rely on unicorns, police, or liberal doo gooders for help.

Not fair!! You get to carry a purse. If I could carry a purse and still have dignity I would have a whole bunch of stuff!

[KYCaster]

specticles,testicles,wallet and watch.

Pretty much what I carry, but if I didn't have to keep up with billable hours, I wouldn't even own a watch.


I take my foil hat, socks and underwear with me.
The hats so the gov't cant hear my thoughts, the socks so they cant use ground penetrating sound waves to hear my thoughts, and the foil underwear is in case I get abducted by aliens, they can't do any anal probing and insert a tracking device in me to monitor where i am at or am going :bigsmyl2:

It's too late to avoid the alien tracking device, but the hat and sox sound like an excellent idea.


Wool fedora (indiana jones pattern) most days, unless i'm going to the coast, then its a heavily raked panama jack. For cold weather one of my leather bomber jackets, sheepskin gloves, egyptian cotton scarf. Pocket litter usualy includes an imco super triplex lighter, a pocket watch and fob, and either my victorinox cadet or opinel #6.

Man, you been watching too much TeeVee!

[bayjoe]

Pocket knife

[Bulltipper]

Leatherman EOD supertool, wallet, cellphone, G36, Boxer dog, truck keys.

[Bulltipper]

Bayjoe, yoou don't take that boxer dog witchyou?

[jmort]

Here in California no gun, but surprised at least one or more of you does not carry pepper spray. Pepper spray can solve a whole lot of problems. That and a large Cold Steel Voyager.

[Love Life]

Good call on the pepper spray.

[larryp]

Cell phone, a good pair of comfortable work type cowboy boots, Western hat for protection from the elements, Silver Stag Elk skinner knife on my belt, Gerber multi-tool, S&W 649 .357 in a Safariland pocket holster, Safariland speed loader. If I'm in the woods then the S&W is replaced with a Colt SAA 5 1/2" in .44special and the Elk Skinner is replaced with either a Silver Stag Damascus Bowie or their new Happy Camper damascus heavy butcher knife.

[DIRT Farmer]

Check oil wells every day. Pencil and day book, Buck wrangler, zippo, (quit smoking a few years ago, just more comfortable with it) cell phone with emergency #s,meds and ICE #s, pistol of the day, rifle of the day, ammo (meth country) Chewing tobacco and grease rags. Pipe wrenches always and guager tape.

[Adam10mm]

I do not pull the hat down over my ears. Kids these days...
I want to throat punch those guys! My son (6yo) is the opposite. He pulls his hat down so hard it smooshes his ears a bit.

I wear Dickies cargo pants for work and wear them during the week.

Right front pocket- iPod with earbuds to listen to outdoor and homebrewing podcasts at work, folding knife with 4 inch tanto blade
Left front pocket- keys
Right rear pocket- wallet
Left rear pocket- business card wallet which includes business cards, appointment cards, and emergency contact card
Right cargo pocket- cell phone
Left cargo pocket- chewing gum, coins
Belt- Leatherman Super Tool (the original from the 90's) and a flashlight

Outside of work where I can carry a gun, a 1911 is on my hip and backup magazine is on the other hip.

I like to go out lightweight. The heavy duty stuff is in the vehicle. First aid kit, fishing line and accessories, hatchet, tow strap, extra clothes, blankets, rope, hammer, screwdrivers, duct tape, zip ties, backup ammo, tarp, and two flashlights.

[Wal']

A hat........must have a hat on...........whichever hat is my favorite at the time...... and of course my teeth. :bigsmyl2:

[shooter2]

Hmmnn... Good question.

either a Swiss Army knife or a Benchmade AFCK depending on where I am going, hanky, money clip, wallet, watch, car keys, good sturdy shoes, blue jeans or cargo pants, top(s) for the weather, Tilley hat, and perhaps other stuff depending on circumstances.

[Epd230]

I carry keys, wristwatch, pocket knife, cellphone, wallet with too many credit cards (living the American dream), and Glock 21. Unfortunately, too much time in the kitchen allows for easy concealment of this large framed item.

[sundog]

Keys, pocket knife, wallet, and cell phone (tethered to main frame at work). I do not wear a watch, as I took it off the day I retired from the Army. 'Time on target' is not so critical in the civilian environment. 'Roscoe' is a constant companion; 45 acp is the ultimate in close quarters personal protection.

[Harter66]

I never leave the house w/o my Shrade 885UH or OT340 , 1 of several pocket tools w/2 screw drivers/pliers/wire cutter. I mostly wear boots of the Red Wing and lately a quality side arm. Here in the shadow of the Sierras daily truck bits include light jacket,light parka or wadder coat,flashlight,handyman/high lift/farm jack,30 ft of chain and a 25ft 3000# ratchet strap.

[bbs70]

Its been a while since I heard and it might not be true anymore, but here in Illinois pepper spray, mace, knives with blades 3" or longer and of course guns are all counted as concealed weapons and therefore illegal here in Il.

Just can't have any fun in this state.

For work or just going about everyday activities, wallet, glasses, boots for work & tennies for home.
Oh, and an iphone so wife can call me to let me know some useless information.

[1Shirt]

Cell phone, Leatherman, wallet, keys, Retired AF ball cap!
1Shirt!

[Kull]

Well disregarding favorite coat, shoes and stuff I always have my pocket knife, my wallet, and my gun.

[MT Gianni]

If going to work I have wallet, cash and coin, cell phone, leatherman, sparker rod & steel, mini-leatherman, notebook, light, coat & ball cap. Recreating I might leave out the notebook and add the gun of the day. Survial pack is an all our rigs except the motorcycle.

Not true anymore. Law changed awhile ago. Blade length no longer is an issue. Chemical sprays are okay too.

I do remember sales of pepper spray being restricted to women and LEOs, but do not know if that was law, or simply the policy of that evil large gun shop in West Dundee.

[km101]

Wallet, watch, money clip, phone, keys, pocket knife, small flashlight, sunglasses. Outerwear changes with the weather. This past weekend it has gone from 32degrees to 80 degrees, so you have to dress accordingly. Lots of variations. Oh yeah, I usually have my "buddy" a S&W model 60. It's such a part of my normal apparel that I almost didnt think of it.

I stand corrected.:lol:
Laws in this state change so much I don't even try to keep up on them.
Are stun guns still illegal, they use to be considered concealed weapons some years ago.

I think I read it on this forum that wasp spray works real good on potential attackers.
Spray distance is greater than with pepper spray.
Still not as good as a firearm, but I doubt a jury would convict you for using it, but then we have Chicago.

[higgins]

Pocket contents vary depending on where I'm going, but I always have my Thermos brand stainless steel thermos of coffee. I got the thermos in late 1974 and it's been with me just about every day since. The cup is long gone (I always have insulated cups in my vehicles), and the second or third screw-in cap is broken around the edges where I've dropped it or it's rolled out of my truck. It was my constant companion at work in the office or field, it's been on all my personal outings, and now I just carry it to the basement when I go down there, which is where I spend most of my time at home.

[Cesure]

Keys, Gerber 500 lockback, small change, cell phone, wallet in one back pocket, TP in a ziplock bag in the other back pocket. I spend a lot of time in the woods far from a civilized place to pinch a loaf.

[Moonie]

Phone, keys, wallet, Swiss army knife (Wenger) and a 1911, full size or officers, depends on my mood although I have started carrying my new 6" SS Security Six on occasion.

[bayjoe]

No the boxer has more fun running in our 500 acre front yard, sides she farts !!

[imsoooted]

the problem with pepper spray here in the republik ov illinois is that all the bad guys have GUNS.....

[Artful]

specticles, testicles, wallet and watch.

Besides these - I carry Cellphone, Wilgen group buy light, keys, pocket knife, for work I have tool bits that fit my screwdriver/drill/impact and smaller LED light.

In vehicle always have spare spec's, water, TP, emergency candle and fire making - if I have my Murse/fanny pack it contains Pistol two extra mags another flashlight and swiss Army knife, check book, Multitool (either Gerber or Coleman), Bic and firestick, compass, hard candy and assorted pills.

[Para82]

At work- small knife(2.5 blade or smaller because of regs) usually Buck55 or Spyderco dragonfly,keys wallet Iphone and Leatherman P4. Off work- Benchmade original Elishewitz Stryker,Leatherman SuperTool and either a G26,Springfield 45 compact 1911, or Ruger SP101 and spare reload for whatever I have on me.

The dragonfly rocks. My wife carries one of those or a ladybug. I just bought a set of 3 of the Spyderco minis at a gun show and started packing one of them for a bit. I retired my Elishewitz Stryker, but I can see it from here. Absolutely the finest one-hand knife I've ever carried, but it was a treasured gift from a treasured friend and years upon years of daily use have taken its toll on the blade. I intend to carry it into Benchmade on one of my frequent vacations in Orygun and have them refurbish it while I stand there and watch.
And I've never gotten past the original Leatherman; mine has passed the original warranty period and I had it out fixing an angle grinder on a job today.

I don't know about the stun guns. I don't think they are outlawed. They are a blessing when properly used. I saw a 50 lb aggressive dog put on his rear in a nano second by one. Pretty effective. Biggest obstacle that I see with them is the fact that they are configured like a handgun. This was done on purpose for training. Too many cases of an officer using his sidearm and killing someone when he thought he was using the taser. The Philly transit cop is the best example as it was caught on video. LEOs went to cross draw to counter that, but who knows?

I would think that any chemical in spray can would be effective when sprayed in the eyes. The benefit of pepper spray is that there are no long lasting effects. Wasp spray in your eyes might not wash out and leave properly working eyes behind. Pepper spray is packaged in an easier to carry bottle than the Wasp spray. You probably won't have criminal issues if you get attacked in your garage and used the wasp spray, but a civil case would have some teeth.

[destrux]

Every day I've made a habit of carrying a slim 2AAA LED flashlight from Terralux and a normal sized Swiss army knife (victorinox) in addition to my wallet, keys and phone. If I'm leaving the house I take my keltec PF9 in my desantis softuk holster.

Nothing all that interesting I guess. I get a lot of use out of the light at work. It has a bite grip on the back which is great when you need both hands to work.

[Beau Cassidy]

Left wrist timex watch. Left 4th finger a reminder of my best friend. Left front pocket- Gerber LST, small cloth for my glasses. Right front pocket keys (usually 2 pair) with my first dogtag on the loop, the smallest Victorinox Swiss Army knife, and a CRKT knife, change, 2 pens. Right hip HK P30 .357 sig. Right rear pocket- wallet, sometimes note paper. Left rear pocket empty.

[Trey45]

J Frame and a Galco suede pocket holster. Keys. Phone. Some kind of knife. Wallet. Watch. Glasses. Flashlight.

Good morning
I never leave home without a Gerber. 10 years now it has been the larger Easyout with the clip hooked on the right front waistband. Before was a long green handle Silverknight.
2nd is a 38 Special... 5 shots or 6 those nice small or medium frames with a Hip-Grip but no quit everyday.

[Gibbs44]

As always, I've got my beard, knife and funds of some sort. Gotta be prepaired.

I carry a messanger bag with me to work and everywhere I go Inside are: note book, pens, old Kindle, check book, wallet, 125 Lumen Lenser LED Flashlight, Hand santizer, Advil, 160gb Classic Ipod, headphones, & Android Phone.

On Person I have a Kershaw pocket knife, Fenix AAA E-01 flashlight on keyring and my Springfield XD-S in a IWB holster.

Father of 3 toddlers, I feel like a pack mule at times...

[gnoahhh]

Pretty much nothing, but my wits. Other than a cell phone (who doesn't anymore?) I don't weigh myself down with any of the trappings of the modern survivalist. I haven't had a ball cap on my head since circa 1988. Pocket knives wear through the pockets and outer layers of my jeans, so I put them aside years ago. I haven't lived anywhere that allows concealed carry of pistols for about 25 years now, and frankly I don't miss it. A wallet is about it.

[WILCO]

Bump!

Another bump 1 year later!

Normal wear is T-shirt, cotton in summer, polyester in winter. Ice house flannel lined pants year round.
Cheap cammo mocs on my feet, a camo ball cap.

In my right pocket is a Ganzo 728 assisted open knife, 3.5 inch stainless steel blade.

In the lanyard hole is a small length of bead chain. Clipped to the bead chain is a small flashlight, a homemade whistle made from a .243 brass and a .22lr brass. And a firesteel, ie ferrocerium rod. All 3 are on their own small clip so any one can be removed quickly and easily.

The clips are sold for small dog leashes.
Firesteel I bought several at a reasonable price similar to this.

A little copper wire, a little JB weld and it is with me for the duration, no sharp points sticking out. Same for the whistle.

The flashlight runs for 40 hours on a single AA battery. It has proven itself to be very handy over the last 2 years.225356

[higgins]

Coffee in the heavily-dented Thermos stainless steel thermos that's been with me practically every day of office, field, or travel since the fall of 1974.

[Lloyd Smale]

ball cap, folding knife, and an lcp in a wallet holster for me. No phone needed. If someone wants to talk to me they can come over when I get home or call there. Text me and you will be dead and in the ground before I answer it or even learn how to.
As long as my ballcap is on my head , the S&W is in one pocket and the Leatherman and some cash in the other, I'm good.

[dale2242]

My pocket knife, my wrist watch and unfortunately lately my cell phone.
