AN EDC AND LIFESTYLE BLOG FOR THE MODERN HOBBYIST
Life is mundane. Our own personal traits and hobbies are what keep us interesting — to our friends, our families, to ourselves. They make us unique. They make us stronger individuals, while also connecting us to communities that bring with them the best camaraderie that we’ll ever have. Embrace your hobbies. Embrace life.

WHAT’S ON MY WRIST

The Orient Kamasu has been heralded as the best proprietary diver at the $200 price point for a couple of years. Who am I to judge? I really shouldn’t because I agree. In-house movement, 200m of water resistance, sapphire crystal and an inoffensive case size that fits tons of wrist sizes.

Made in the USA! Buck has always made top quality products and this Buck Knives 503 Prince is the perfect tool for everyday use. I carry it in my lighter pocket because of its compact size and weight. Want something sharper? Buy a lightsaber.
WHAT’S IN MY CUP

I usually tend to keep pretty dark coffee in my cup, but this medium roast from Caribou is flavorful enough to scratch that strong coffee itch. I’m really enjoying it.

Yes, sunglasses count as part of your EDC. You wear them every day don’t you? I’ve owned all kinds of different models, but the Clubmasters are the perfect sunglasses if there is such a thing. Size, weight, versatility, you can’t go wrong.
WHAT’S IN MY POCKET

Full Grain Leather Slim Wallet made in the USA! Main Street Forge makes surprisingly outstanding quality leather goods for even more surprisingly low prices. I carry their stuff every day.
I’ve been wearing these almost every single day for two years and I couldn’t be happier. They’re perfect for hiking and just getting around.
