29/M/TN, I'm a handyman and a geology major. This is my edc for the last couple weeks. I got some new stuff recently.

• New to me: Strider smf, flame ti, cc, ranger green, grindworx mr worx damascus skull bead on gitd 550 with gitd cord end (clipped inside front right)
• New Leatherman Juice S2, leather cord pinky lanyard with nut as bead (left cargo)
• What knot green bandana, all this is sitting on it. (left cargo)
• Citizen Blue Angels Watch: gift from my parents when I was about 13yo. (left wrist)
• Newish TGT (Tight) Cowman 2.0 wallet: Great wallet. Thin, and so far, pretty durable. A kickstarter thing. (right back pocket or front left)
• truck and house keys (keychain, right front)
• Split pea lighter: good little grill starter (keychain, right front)
• Keylight Nano blue, with a bit of electrical tape: low emmitting led that burns constantly for a year on one set of tiny watch batts. brighter and cheaper then tritium... though i do love me some tritium. (keychain, right front)
• New Nitecore srt3, gitd paracord and a nut, haven't gotten around to wrapping the grip with a bit of electrical tape yet. That stuff comes in handy. Great light, 550 lumen with lots o' features and an easy ui (clipped to right cargo)
• Pocket Moleskine hobbit edition: Got a stack of these as a gift a while back, liking them. Sketchbook and random notes. (right cargo)
• Fisher x-750 space pen: had for probably more than a decade now. fine tip black ink. (right cargo)
• Newish Rayban aviator 62mm sunglasses: I used to go through a pair of sunglasses every month or so, had these for 6 months now. Hoping I can keep from busting them. (shirt pocket)
• Samsung galaxy sIII: Pretty much my life with dropbox, evernote and firefox all syncing with my laptop and desktop. (front left pocket)
• I generally wear black dickies cargo work pants, a tshirt with a button up shirt over it and an old brown pair of redwing steeltoe workboots.

I'm on a lanyard kick lately, been putting paracord on just about everything.

Im just curious why do americans have a fasincation with guns? why no other self defense tools? Collapsable baton, billy club, pepper spray, even a large fixed blade knife would do in most situations.

Its too easy to pull a gun and threaten with lethal force, thats how situations escalate quickly and you have no point of return.

Funny thing here in Texas... it's legal to shoot someone, but illegal to club them... seriously!!
I can shoot a bullet in someone, but I can't hit them over the head with a baton!!
Any club type instrument is illegal....
Pepper spray doesn't bring all attackers down, it even pisses some off...
Blades longer than about 4-5 inches are illegal here. General rule of thumb is no bigger than your palm.

Guns are simply the only legal carry item that can actually stop ALL attackers.
The only situation I'd pull a gun out for is if you endanger my life or my family.
I've carried a knife since I was 12, never even once thought about using it for anything other than a tool so far.
Never had to. It's the person, not the weapon, that makes it dangerous.

[Jim.45]

Even my 12 year old niece has a wallet and a cell phone and most in this country do. Do we really need to include that in EDC. Just saying.
