During the winter the knuckles on my hands crack and bleed if I don't hit them with some kind of ointment every few hours. I've found the Burt's Bees burn ointment works best.

Ihave a similar problem with my lips. and I use Blistex medicated for them

I have exactly the same problem with my lips. They seem to crack as soon as there's any real change in the temperature. I haven't found anything that really works for me though.

Benner, try Kiehls lip balm. That stuff is truly amazing! It works for me!

No problem! Heres the link- http://www.kiehls.com/_us/_en/face/lip-balm-1.htm

Everything they sell is black and white! I find that every product I own from them is truly top notch!

Here's what I carry. Whether I use the sheath or the clip on the wave depends. Also, if I do use the clip, I dont carry the Kershaw. I also may not carry the pens. It depends on what I have to do. I also may carry a pencil. The MAGLITE I dont usually carry, but it looked cool in this picture.

I also may carry a leatherman core (soon-its coming), or a PST or a Charge.

Nice daily rig you've got there mate

edap617 · **Reply #126 on:** February 21, 2008, 11:55:10 PM

Getpower, is your mini maglite already converted to LED?

getpower · **Reply #127 on:** February 23, 2008, 07:35:50 PM

No, its just a regular one. I had a previous one that was converted and although I did like it somewhat, I like the way it came better for some reason.

Here's my kit of late. I've forgotten the Imco Triplex Super lighter.

My apologies to LM123 for showing the Holy Grail.

Damn you!

NutSAK, is that a flashlight on your keychain?

The black and white item is a thumb drive. There's also a Rambler and a P-38...

edap617 · **Reply #132 on:** February 24, 2008, 05:55:09 AM

Terry, is your thumb drive Sandisk brand same as mine in the picture below?

What LED flashlight is that and what is its battery?

Thanks.

Eddie

NutSAK · **Reply #133 on:** February 24, 2008, 06:05:36 AM

Yes, it's a Sandisk Cruzer, 4GB. My keys have worn off the label almost completely.

The flashlight is a Novatac EDC 120P. It runs on CR123a or RCR123 (rechargeable Li-Ion). I run it on rechargeables.

Benner · **Reply #134 on:** February 24, 2008, 09:25:59 AM

Any close up pics of that Novatac Terry.

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #135 on:** February 24, 2008, 09:41:11 AM

Today's duty kit... or most of it anyway!

S&W M-100 black coated handcuffs

Gerber Infinity Ultra

CRKT Zilla

The multi changes from week to week, and occasionally from night to night, but the bracelets and light are always the same. Not pictured are my flash drives (I have a 1g and a 2g), Streamlight CuffMate handcuff key with integrated LED light, SOSAKOnline carabiner, www.EDCDepot.com spy capsule with arthritis pill, or my Uncle Mike's glove case with standard latex gloves and puncture/chemical resistant gloves.

Oh yeah, and my stainless Fisher Bullet space pen...

Can I get those cuff in a camo finish?

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #137 on:** February 24, 2008, 09:49:24 AM

It's possible... I wouldn't be surprised to find out S&W is cranking them out in desert tan at least!

At the SHOT Show this year we noticed that some manufacturers are cranking them out in different colors- blue, green, yellow, pink etc. I was very disappointed to see this as cuffs are a serious tool, not a fashion accessory.

edap617 · **Reply #138 on:** February 24, 2008, 09:52:55 AM

Why do you EDC a handcuff Def?

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #139 on:** February 24, 2008, 09:59:37 AM

Because sometimes I get sick of holding down bad guys and it's easier to tie them up!

I work as a doorman at a local bar- doormen are more commonly called "bouncers" but basically we are security folks. I carry cuffs for incidents where people are presenting a danger to themselves or others, and need to be restrained.

I don't EDC them in my personal life, just at work.

Sea Monster · **Reply #140 on:** February 24, 2008, 10:01:08 AM

I'm more of a Cable-Ties kind of guy when it comes to cuffing.

Not that I'm actively looking for opportunities to make Citizens Arrests.

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #141 on:** February 24, 2008, 10:08:01 AM

I was never a big fan of cable ties, or the so called Zip Cuffs, which were fancy one use versions of cable ties, "created for law enforcement use." They are bulky and uncomfortable to carry, although if I had a cruiser to store crap like that in I might think differently. Give me a nice set of high carbon cuffs any day!

I hope you don't have to use the handcuff often Def.

Not yet. Hopefully later this week I'll have the new Elektro Lumens and the Fenixes and I can take a bunch of pictures.

Man, where do some of you guys get your pants?

My Levis cant hold half of the stuff that you guys SAY that you carry all the time. I see some of you with MINI MAGLITEs without a sheath and you have like 2 cigarette lighters and 10 pocket kives

.

You guys go over the top

Leatherman123 · **Reply #145 on:** February 24, 2008, 08:42:02 PM

The easy solution is to just carry a purse. Don't worry--nobody will mind.

Seriously though--I rarely wear jeans, and if I do, they are carpenter-type jeans with extra pockets. I wear cargo pants or shorts nearly always.
