Not exactly a lightweight combo, but I feel prepared for just about anything with this pair...

That is definitely a capable combo.

It's not the fanciest torch in the world, but it does what I need round the house. :tu:

Yeah, I know that's a lot of SAKs for an EDC, but depending on where I am (usually in the house, these days) they all get a workout. And the keyring provides an excellent backup bottle opener if I've not got one to hand. :cheers:

Again, here's what you should have seen... :whistle:

Nate j,

Solid companions.

Might you be willing to share the names of your gear. At the angle of the photo, an old fool like me cannot be sure. SAK looks like a Wenger, and the torch looks like one my son had, but I cannot recall the name.

Thx in advance.

Nate j,

Ah, I zoomed and..,

Felix PD 40 r

It can burn a hole in the night!

Still cannot make the model of SAK though.

Big gun.

Small gun.

Derringer.

What model Derringer is it?

Also, mong the 3 SAKs, which would you say you draw the most often?

My favorite EDC light is the Streamlight ProTac 2AAA.  The primary reason is that the clicky switch is very stiff, which allows me to carry it in my pocket with no worry of accidental activation.  It has a long burn time, with high and low outputs plus strobe.  I feed it 2x AAA Eneloops.  The Streamlight Stylus Pro is a close runner up.  Long run time, stiff clicky, super reliable.

My go-to SAK continues to be the Explorer Plus.  I usually supplement it with a Manager to have the micro phillips on board.

Explorer Plus/Manager combo hunts. Hadn’t thought of that.

Also like the 2 inline aaas for long run. KISS.

What’s the caliber on the hole maker?

Very cool hand held street lamp! It probably even transmits 5G! I want one. How much, sir, and what brand?

Why thank you sir. That’s a funny description of it for sure! This is a Zebralight H600w mk II. Picked it up used for around $40, the newer mk IV’s go for $89 I think  :o
Wowtac A2s is a decent value comparison at $30  :tu: (was a bit of a flashlight fanatic previously!)

I carry a Recruit along with an Olight i3t everyday, all day (even left it in my jammie pants overnight by mistake on occasion) everyday. Since I live in the country ($20 from anywhere), if I leave the house, I'm driving so the SD Classic rides along with an Olight i1r on my key ring.

After my regular M->Th retirement load out in Carhartt pockets stuffed with S-557 and Cyber Tool Large trouble shooters, Friday lite carry actually changes my center of gravity.

Here is my new Exec 74 with the Nitecore Tip SE and my old pal—the Gerber Shard.

Lights, grooming, fastening, cutting, prying, cap lifting.

Life covered.

Cheers! And no, it's a Signature Lite. It's served me well for over 20 years. :)

Here's my combo, an OHGAK and Olight. I seem to prefer an OD green setup for my pocket gear, when I can.

Home brew , horizontal , nylon belt sheath.  :cheers:
Don't even realize it's there, and the regulation on the E16 is amazing. Great runtime for a mass production light.

You know, I feel bad for reviving two threads at this point, but some of these threads are just absolutely fantastic and I hate to see them languish like so, Here's the better part of what I have in my pockets at all times (plus a Swiss Champ).
