What the heck is EDC-TV?
on: October 16, 2025, 06:21:11 PM
Many of you have been getting invited to or seeing hints of a new project we have been working on behind the scenes called EDC-TV.

Or if you are feeling formal, Every Day Carry Tele Vision.   :think:

What is it you may ask?

Well, it seems pretty obvious by the name, but there are a few more details available at the new website.

Yes, I said NEW WEBSITE!

https://edctv.org/

We kept going with a .org because it's tradition around here.

But don't worry about that, and don't worry about the new site because it's just a landing pad for the new project, and it's all designed to funnel right back here to the forum, where you guys already are!

Yup, that's it- you guys are on the ground floor!   :D

Anyways, there will be more info forthcoming, I am just working on getting everything ready- officially we will launch on November 1st, and I hope you all are going to love it as much as I do.  This has been stuck in the planning stages for well over a decade, and now it's finally happening!

In the meantime, feel free to speculate wildly as we all love to do here!   :D

Every day carry. A series about Egyptian pyramid builders, brewery horses, sherpas of Mount Everest and military marches. Truly a wide concept!

It will be interesting I'm sure.  :cheers:

I promised a bit more information as we went, and so here it is.

It's not The Def Show.

That would be boring and painful to watch.

So I have a couple of regular co-hosts, and I'm pretty sure that you will all be in awe of who they are, and then again when you hear these guys.  These are some serious heavy hitters, and my job on the show is to get these two talking and then stand back!

So who the heck are they?

The name Abraham "Abe" Elias is one you should know if you have ever picked up any knife mags over the past two decades.  I don't think there's a knife rag he hasn't gotten a byline in, and he was an assistant editor for Knives Illustrated for years.  When it was sold he moved to a few different magazines before settling in with Blade Media, aka the company that bought Knifeforums, owns the BLADE Show and published BLADE magazine.  Abe currently holds the title of Field Editor there.  When he's not writing, he owns Diving Sparrow Knifeworks and makes bushcrafting knives, and has sold designs to companies like CRKT and Boker. 

And there's Inky, whom you may know from right here on the only forum that matters.  Or you may know him from the gold old days on Knifeforums.  Or the good old days on JerzeeDevils.  Or many other forums.  What you might not know is that Inky is also an extensive knife trader, buying, selling and trading knives constantly, and as such has more knowledge in his bloomers than most people will amass in their lifetime.

I've known Abe about 25 years and Inky a few years longer than that, but prior to this project, they had never met each other, and let me tell you, putting these guys together is remarkably impressive.  Even with my own 30ish years in the industry, listening to these guys really makes me the dumb guy in the room.

Worse than that, they are both funny and humble, and an absolute pleasure to talk and listen to.

I can't wait to hear everyone's feedback on this- but bear in mind, it's a work in progress initially.  We are facing some audio challenges (which do get better!)  and we are experimenting with formats, but I think you will see the substance more than makes up for it.

We have just about two weeks left until the launch on November 1st, but it should be available on all your favorite podcast services like Apple, Spotify, Amazon and YT/Google.  I will also post all of the download/streaming links right here on the forum because this is where it all starts.

The gang is always going to be a part of this.  There will be lots of times when we look for people to be on air, to ask questions, point out our mistakes (there will be some, at least from my end of the table!) and keep us honest!   :D

The podcast only exists to enhance this forum, and the membership is our #1 priority- it always has been and always will be.

In fact, the description I am using for the podcast is "The Podcast You Never Knew You Needed, from The Only Forum That Matters!"

Most of the social media accounts are titled "EDC-TV by Multitool.org."

The gang is the only reason this exists, and you are all already a part of it!

Love the logo - and the similar style to the MTo logo

This is a great idea to see some videos and faces behind the forum - as the forum itself is fairly visually static and can be impersonal (visually) - even though of course the ambiance and atmosphere here is always very friendly.

Apparently its going off the air in the UK at the end of November. All that will be left is one channel showing reality ( :rofl:) TV.

I think we can agree that MTV, whether it still exists or not, is not the MTV it was before. 

Personally I can't wait until EDC-TV reaches it's pinnacle and I realize in a cocaine fueled super model party aboard the EDC-TV private jet that I have lost touch with my fans.

Naturally I will try to pass my revelation along to Inky and Abe, but the reception over the Indian Ocean won't be all that great despite them being in their own EDC-TV private jets, atop their own piles of supermodels, flying about thirty meters off my jet's wing.

And by the time we land, the LSD will have kicked in and I will have forgotten my revelation because there's a heavily armed butterfly keeping me from de-planing.

Those are going to be good times.   >:D
