7 Amazing Golden EDC Essentials
Hey there Carryologists, it’s Yong-Soo and I’m back with another EDC column. Last time, the all-black EDC was quite popular so this time, we’re going with an all-golden colored EDC! From brass materials to titanium nitride coating, I’ve gathered up some of my favorite EDC items in an illustrious golden color of all shapes, functions, and sizes – hope you like it!

Simple, sturdy, and sleek, the Craighill Square Money Clip is cut in Pennsylvania, formed and finished in New York. It’s the perfect solution for carrying your daily wallet essentials without adding any additional weight or bulk, making it a lightweight and stylish carry.

Hand-machined in Japan by master craftsmen from solid brass metal stock, the Douglass NEO lighters are world-renowned for their fanatical attention to detail and insanely tight tolerances (0.0001” to be exact). It’s an understatement to say that these lighters are built to perfection and offer unmatched quality. The NEO lighters feature windproof performance and airtight construction, which allows for great longevity as it prevents the lighter fluid from evaporating easily.

Known in the EDC world for their innovative spinners and high-performance firearm accessories, Mechforce has leveraged their cutting-edge expertise in the creation of their version of an EDC flashlight. The Mechtorch pocket EDC flashlight is powered by a single 18350 battery and puts out up to a whopping 1,300 lumens. The triple Nichia 219CT warm white emitters, which are made in Japan, mimic sunlight (for a warmer golden glow!) and render colors more accurately, letting you see better in the dark.

Few things in the knife world are as iconic as a Chaves blade with its aggressive lines and ‘take no prisoners’ attitude to performance. The Ultramar Redencion impresses with its impeccable fit, finish, feel, and function. The Ultramar Redencion is perfectly sized for daily carry and integrates seamlessly into an everyday urban carry. The stout yet compact 3.30” S35VN drop point blade is satin finished for enhanced wear resistance and rockets out instantly via the dual thumb studs. The iconic Chaves skull titanium pocket clip and an exclusive lasered and patinaed brass inlay done by Jonathan McNees, featuring the traditional Japanese Seigaiha motif, which symbolizes surges of good luck and strength, complete this one-of-a-kind and badass package.

Everyone’s favorite EDC pen – Schon DSGN Pen – now comes with a much-requested clip. The Schon DSGN Pen is a heartfelt labor of love and it’s designed to be your perfect everyday carry pen. It’s small in the pocket, and big in the hand. At only 4” capped, it’s completely unobtrusive and a breeze to carry. Yet it offers you a full-sized writing experience, because the cap screws onto the end to extend the usable length. All parts are sourced locally in Massachusetts and made in small batches to ensure the highest quality control.

If you’re a knife fanatic and enjoy tinkering with your favorite folding knife, the Scout Tools Hex Bit Driver is designed to help you get the job done in style. If you’ve ever handled cheaply made bit drivers before, you’ll know how unreliable they are. This hex bit driver is fitted with a sealed bronze cage bearing, which makes it incredibly reliable and easy to use. Just fit the cylindrical tail end onto the palm of your hand, and rotate the driver using just your fingers. With time, it’ll also develop a beautiful patina.

Designed as the perfect everyday keychain knife, the solid brass Quiet Carry Bandit punches way above its weight class in both functionality and looks. Coming in at just the size of your standard house key, the Quiet Carry Bandit allows for easy carrying on your keychain without adding any noticeable weight or bulk. It disappears and slips by unnoticed until the need arises and it springs into action to save the day. The blade is crafted from AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58/60RC, with a modified clip point blade shape that is both versatile and highly practical in a day-to-day setting.
