What do you carry on your person in public?

[Yakov]

What do you carry on your person in public at all times? I carry my fixed blade, my multi-tool, my magnesium fire starter, and my mini-maglite.

[vthompson]

Personally, I carry a variety of items. I wear military BDU's on a daily basis and I keep the cargo pockets filled with gear. I carry a firesteel, a pencil sharpener, steel wool and dryer lint in an empty prescription bottle,a bandana, a Fenix PD30 flashlight, spare batteries, a whistle, a photon II Flashlight on my keychain, a fishing kit with hooks, sinkers,and 30yds.of fishing line, a multi-tool on my belt, a Gerber Freeman Folder in my pocket and I am sure that I left something out.

I carry my Spyderco folding knife, outdoor and indoor glasses, harmonica, wallet, and my big leather jacket loaded with pockets.

[Sarge47]

I carry my wallet since it has my CDL in it, my keys so I can get back in the house after I leave, at least 2 decks of cards on my belt in case I need to perform at any given time, a fanny pack with more performing stuff, & my cell phone.

[Pal334]

Pocket knife (trusty Barlow), wallet, cell, keys and a good attitude

[Ole WV Coot]

Usually and depending on where I might be going Beretta 45. I always have a SOG Flash II, SAK, wallet, keychain light, glasses. I use a walking stick because I look old enough to need one and first line of defense. I will leave the 45, knives in the vehicle if I might go where they aren't welcome, but I can always carry the walking stick. Oh I forgot the cell phone(to call for HELP)

Pocket knife, Chapstick, Glock 26, flashlight, and a hairtie.

If I had that much stuff in my pockets, I probably won't go more than 200 yds from my truck, either! (I'm out of shape.)LOL

I normally only have my wallet, keys, cell phone, smokes & lighter.

[2dumb2kwit]

I'm pretty new to "survival thinking", but sitting here thinking about it, finding my truck, in a survival situation, would be near to hitting the mother-load. I'm a grading contractor, and work out of my truck, mostly. There's a lot of useful stuff in there! LOL
