I pretty much always have a knife with me - either a modern folder or a nice slip joint.
Besides this dedicated cutting & slicing tool, I always have a watch, my wallet, and my...keys.
My keyring is where I attach my TRUE every day carry tools - the same stuff that is with me, all the time.
I tried many tools and useful items over the years, and here's my current set:
(Victorinox Classic, oldie Swiss+Tech microtech, Swiss+Tech Utili-Key).
For a comfortable weight, I get small cutting implements (plain and serrated), small pliers,
a nice array of screwdrivers (flat, phillips, many sizes), small scissors (mostly for personnal grooming),
small nail file (That, I can do without), and of course a bottle opener (on the utiliti-key).
This fullfills all my "city" needs, in a small and light package.
I used to carry a leatherman Micra or a PS4; both were very nice but for some reason, I tend to prefer
my current set (too bulky? I'm not sure).
What works for you? What do you really EDC on your keyring?
