I have a few modes of EDC so I figured I would do light to heavy.
Top pic is Train commuter: Wallet, keys, Benchmade Rescue Hook Model 5, Kershaw Leek, Ipod Mini with Science and news podcasts, Cellphone, and Oakley Half jackets. Not shown is my Citizen Skyhawk because I forgot >:(

Bottom pic is Coast Guard Boat Crew: Wallet, keys, Benchmade Rescue Hook Model 5, Kershaw Leek, Benchmade 942, Benchmade Model 160, Cellphone, and Oakley XX's polarized, Garmin eTrex GPS, Surefire E2D with red lens for night ops, Aireal Flares, Dye Marker, and signal mirror and whistle.

Lots of stuff but is all useful.

Good to see an Ipod in EDC gear. For me its about preparedness & comfort, not simply survival.

We do talk about EDC and the ipod is always with me. You are right it is about comfort too.

The frame knife is a Benchmade Model 160. Part of there red line> Mine just happens to be a Pre Production Model 993/1000. Got it off of ebay a few years ago.

I carry a BM Rescue Hook in my truck. I used to carry it on my belt, but I typically have a knife on board. I would most likely need it when travelling, so figure it is most useful in the vehicle. It's a cool little tool!
