A year of collection tracking

Yes, the one I have currently is the Card Caddy, which has been fantastic for me. I am thinking of getting the Engineer Caddy, which I think is the one DrRollinstein DrRollinstein is referring to above. It has room for a notebook and a full sized knife as well as the pen. I think that'd be a good one as well.

I checked it again, and i have the Truckers Hitch. Only carries the notebook and pen. I had debated between the two, but i dont think the Engineer would have fit well in my front pocket.

I carry the wallet in the front because i seem to be a bit rough on my cards, and the front pocket puts less stress on them.

Yes, the Card Caddy is also great for front pocket carry. The Engineer would probably be too big for that. It'd be great though for coat pocket carry, which for me out in the PNW covers a good bit of the year. So I'm still considering adding that one to the rotation.

In the interest in revisiting this next year, here is the state of my collection as of 1/1/2019:

Most carried for the past two months is the purple Keen. I don’t anticipate that changing for awhile. We’ll see how that holds up when we look back.

I recently got into doing YouTube videos, and am working on lining things up to have things come through for review and discussion. That may wind up influencing change over the next year. I’m hoping it will actually curb my hunger to buy many new things, and allow me to focus my buys on a few special pieces. Since I got the Keen, I don’t feel like I’m chasing “the perfect EDC”. That feels taken care of, so I may just be picking up collection pieces now.

This feels like a lifetime ago, not 2 months.

I’ve since added these:

I was just posting last night about how useful the Insingo blade shape is. Solid choice on both. Btw keep up the great work on the vids.
