Every Day Carry

[QwarkDreams]

Since smartphones replace many things we used to use every day (i.e. calculators, mp3 players, PDAs,...), what are the things you can't/don't want to go outside with?

For example, I never leave the house without these things:

• Keys
• Nokia Lumia 925 in Terrapin case (red)
• Wallet + ID card
• LiteXpress Pen Power 100-2 (small flashlight)
• Leatherman Style CS
• Nail clipper
• Tombow Air-Press pen (transparent)
• Spectacle cloth
• Lighter + cigarettes

I try to keep it as light and minimalistic as possible.

So what are the other forum members using every day?

I carry with me my 520, my wallet, and a knife with me everyday. That's it. And if I'm driving my keys, but that's like once a week

I used to always have a Gerber version of the Leatherman, and a Spyderco knife, but since I no longer work in a factory, and now work in a bank, I don't carry them anymore. I really want to go back to working in a factory, though...

I have Gerber too. I keep it in my car.

Wallet (that I've been contemplating switching out with a front pocket wallet. I always take my wallet out of my pocket to avoid sitting on it, and have left it at my desk more than once)
Phone - Lumia 920
Pocketknife - It's a small Swiss Army knife
16GB USB drive - clipped to my pocketknife
Flashlight - LED MiniMAG or a Fenix E01 (super small, fits in the watch pocket of jeans)
Keys
