EDC, a.k.a. everyday carry, is a term you can hear more and more often today. However, the concept behind it has existed for millennia. In fact, it’s been around since the man was advanced enough in its evolution to have any tools.
Sort of. Knowing proper first aid is an essential outdoor skill. You need to be able clean and dress wounds and other injuries when medical attention can’t get to you, and in some cases, that could even require giving yourself stitches. A chore, which, to put it mildly, absolutely sucks. ZipStitch can make it easier.
Multitools are incredibly useful, but if you're in a survival situation, you're looking for something much more heavy-duty - like an axe. The Innovation Factory Survival Axe is the perfect combination of an all-in-one multitool and heft hatchet, made from lightweight, 1055 hardened carbon steel body.
My Medic wants to make the toughest, most-accessible-to-anyone first aid kits on the planet. They want to make the tools needed to save lives, available and ready to use, wherever you are. That’s a tough job for anyone, especially considering the rigors most quality first aid kits are put through already. But that was My Medic’s goal, and it looks they’ve gone about getting it done. Exhibit A: The My Medic MyFAK.
The SOG FastHawk is based on the version of the classic Tomahawk used by US soldiers in the Vietnam War.

What if it got down to it and a simple set of shoelaces saved your life? That isn't an unrealistic expectation. When preparing, everything on you and in your bug-out bag should be considered as life-saving. Survival Laces 2.0 should be a part of your preparedness.
One of the greatest advantages you have in any fight or self-defense situation is the element of surprise. Wear a gun on your hip and you are instantly recognized as dangerous. Wear it concealed, and nobody knows you are dangerous but you. Anything can be a weapon or a tool. Even if you don't have a weapon, your body can become one. Of course, we surely can't forget the value of a high-powered, tactical flashlight as a self-defense tool. This is what law enforcement teaches in their "Run, Hide, Fight" campaign. If someone is attacking you, use what's in your environment. But what if something you use on a regular basis was designed to be both a weapon and a tool? That's where tactical pens come in. But what makes for the best tactical pen for any occasion? We sat down to make a list. And then we went and chose the one we think is the best. Scroll onward to find out.
