Stormmaster, I think I have a spleen rupture from laughing now! Edit: Still giggling, but here's my EDC: Not very barvarian, but useful. Nostril hairs watch out!

A Benchmade Mini Griptilian with the non-serrated sheepsfoot blade. And bright neon yellow grips because it's easy to spot if dropped and, even more importantly, doesn't look at all tacticool.

My stuff looks pretty tacticool. But the karambit is genuinely a useful knife. From opening boxes to making hot dog roasting sticks, it's quite handy. It's absolutely fantastic for shot gunning beers too. I sharpened the false edge so it's super pointy

Pretty much what I carry everyday. A bit excessive but I have no reason for them if I keep them at home. Plus they don't weight too much either so it's not like it's a burden That Karambit looks rather wicked. I, like many, have a ridiculous/unnecessary array (collection) to choose from. Slip joints, multi-tools, inexpensive beaters, about a half dozen decent quality folders, and a few small fixed. Rat 1 is durable cheapness. Endura, Delica and Griptillian are good quality without breaking the bank. Have a few large beast folders with 5 1/2" blades (Cold Steel), just because.

So tempted to make a "biggest tool" pun, but I kinda like Asad. I use my EDC stuffs at work and on the go; I'm not after some idealized self-defense situation; I just like keeping useful tools on me. Just to clarify.

Just to clarify. I was actually throwing out bait. Wanted to see what someone could come up with. Oh well😞 😜😜😜 Oh well, I meant that when I go to college or school I can't carry anything other than a disguised 'Specimen' knife.

On school days, a simple manual Specimen knife (it's wicked though)
On normal days, SOG Flash Tanto and a Gerber Paraframe. Or maybe a Tac-force Krambit.
On higher risk days, I have a 5 Inch Pattern Welded Tanto, an MTech Dagger, a Traveller multi-tool, and maybe a gun.
On on days when I have to go into heat-zones, I carry an AK-47 and a 12- gauge Double Barrel.
My load-out for an emergency is totally different though. It's fatal, to say the least.

I don't like carrying things in my pockets so all my knives are carried elsewhere. For actual everyday carry, Monday through Friday, they're in my lunch bag. I have a Swiss Army-type knife that I found in the woods. It has the usual array of tools and a knife blade. There's also in my lunch bag a cheap paring knife and a (kitchen) knife-fork-and-spoon set. Of all those things, I've only ever used the spoon and it's not even my good spoon.
One reason I don't seem to ever use any of those knives is because there's a kitchen full of knives here at work. Even my desk had a knife when I started here 17 years ago. There are also lots of spoons in the kitchen, too.
Elsewhere on weekends, I may or may not have a knife with me but I never seem to use them except for a table knife for spreading things on bread or crackers (biscuits). And there's the spoon, too. Not my good spoon, though. It's much too good to use. But spoons seem indispensable to me.

The spoon is mightier than the sword! Esp. if you have soup (with canned soup it might be souptly different).

There are some areas in my country, especially through mountains, where there are huge gangs of criminals that will employ various very clever methods to get you to stop your vehicle, rob you, kill you and toss you over the side. Rinse and repeat. People mostly go through in the day and in huge groups. I don't. Huge group means huge vehicle, huge vehicle means more attraction and that can be fatal. And there are places that are labeled 'Area Foreign' That's even worse. Fights all the time. So that EDC can be very common. However, it is not common for a 19 year old to be making by trips through these places. Hell, maybe only 1% of the population other than the army go through here in their lifetimes. So the rest of the country isn't as bad. A PEPPER SPRAY GUN! I need one now...

My last visit was when I was 17, with my mother to sell the lands she had there. Never went there, until only once recently, to check a gun smith. I don't like going through such places myself. There is a lot of negative image about Pakistan already, without these places. There are only 5-6 places in the whole country like this, and I happen to have to go through them. What a life.... But yeah, I don't sleep with an AK or bathe with a shotgun. And my school or college doesn't teach me to blow myself up. So, I had the honor of seeing that vintage double barrel maybe 4-5 times my entire life.( It is my mother's).
