I have a new addition suggestion.
edc stands for everyday carry. But whar about:
edc2 or edcc - everyday carry capability.
I have used the term in my post on how to make the edc pouch for edc2. See in the pouches sub-forum. If you carry several toolbits for example your ability to do more is so much better than just the standard tool.

Ok, my boredom got the best of me as I'm still fairly new to this forum and searching for ideas. It brought me to this thread and I now know way too much about EWCM (just the first view on a google search no more), dilligaf and many other cool/ strange acronyms. I also have one I learned on a trip I took a couple of weeks ago thanks to a friend, SFI (simple effing instruction). Could be used I guess when trying to relate to others that cannot follow SFI.

Dear Leatherman......................

We use lot's of acronyms and abreviations, so I figured I'd try to make a list to help the newcomers, although I still probably have a few to learn as well. Please add to my list, and I'll update this post to keep them all in order.

Common Acronyms:
BO - Black Oxide Finish
BOB - Bug Out Bag
CCW - Concealed Weapons Permit
CRKT - Columbia River Knife & Tool Company
EDC - Every Day Carry
FSP - Fisher Space Pen
GAK - German Army Knife
LM - Leatherman
MAS- Multi-tool Acquisition Syndrome
MT - Multi-Tool
MT.O or MTO - Multitool.org
OT - Off Topic
PC - Politically Correct
PSK - Personal Survival Kit
SAK - Swiss Army Knife
SAKKO - Swiss Army Knife Knock-Off
SOG - Studies and Operations Group (Knife & Tool company)
SOSAK - Secret Order of the Swiss Army Knife
TGMTPT- The Great Multi Tool Picture Thread
Vic - Victorinox
VSAK-Victorinox
WSAK-Wenger

Some Specific Tool Models:
PST - LM's Personal Survival Tool
S2, CS4, KF4, XE6 - LM's Juice Series
P4, S4, E4 - LM's Squirt Series
Ti, XTi, TTi, AL, ALX - LM's Charge Series
CX - Skeletool CX
ST - SwissTool or Super Tool
STS - SwissTool Spirit
OHT, OHF - Vic's One Handed Trekker, Fireman
TCP - Tool Chest Plus
XAVT - Huge Vic Tool
PPP - SOG's Pocket Power Plier
PPPD - SOG's Pocket Power Plier Deluxe
EVO - A style of Wenger tools

Not to be annoying... But I'm quite sure Leatherman PST is a POCKET survival tool...

That could be true... Though Leatherman's website says 'pocket'...

Since 1983, we've been making tools that can endure just about anything and come back to work tomorrow. When Tim Leatherman and his business partner Steve Berliner started the company with the Pocket Survival Tool (PST) they had no idea that someday they would have more than 30 models and a full 90,000 square-foot facility here in Portland, Oregon with more than 400 employees. Here's a look at all the Leatherman tools past and present.
