Edc ?

[Farley]

One thing I have noticed about Zippo lighters as an EDC, they run out quickly and If you get dunked in the water, you're SOL.

As much as I love them, I just got sick of filling them or using my spare in its place because it ran out. These days I carry a BIC on me and have a spare in every bag I own including my camera bag.

Just a thought.

Gotta love BICs. Simple, easy, cheap. Still have a sparker when the butane is gone.

Here's my EDC, for what it's worth. I carry it in my pants pockets, on my belt, in vest and jacket pockets (as the season demands), and in a small Maxpedition bag as need be.

Here's my key ring. In addition to my car keys, it holds a SAK Spartan, a FireSteel, a "peanut" lighter, a LED flashlight, and a P-38. In the same pocket I have a CRKT KISS money-clip folder. I also carry at least two other folders when pockets allow -- if not in pockets then in my occasional-carry, small Maxpedition bag.

On my belt I have a Leatherman Wave. In the Wave holster is a FireSteel, a Magnesium rod, and a carbide striker attached with a length of jute twine. My belt also holds my 30+ year old Buck 110 and a Fenix LD20 flashlight.

Here are two shots of the peanut lighter.

I have an old IMCO lighter..They also do not loose fuel as fast as a Zippo but I still lpove the Zippos...more classic style..hehehe....but the IMCOs are usually when I go on a a few days trip and I hate carrying lighter fluid with me.
