In this solo episode of Gearing Up I go through all the reasons I uninstalled Vero. I think it definitely has potential, but it just isn’t there yet for me. Plenty of valid criticisms of Instagram lately, and definitely some great features on Vero. Be sure to join the Facebook group to continue the conversation and let me know your thoughts.

In this week’s episode of Gearing Up, I answer the question: Has the EDC community become stagnant? 

The question, originally send in by @MartinsEDC on Instagram, really got me thinking! Has it got stagnant? For me, the hobby reaches ‘stagnant’ when innovation and fun take a back seat. But as I spend more time in the hobby (and more importantly, with the people), I find that what makes it stagnant definitely changes. Check this episode out and let me know your thoughts!

In this episode of Gearing Up I’m joined by legendary knife maker Bob Terzuola. Bob shares his stories about becoming a knife maker, pioneering some of the features that are common in EDC knives today, and business tips for anyone interested in becoming a knife maker.

I’m thankful for Bob sharing his time and talking knives with me - it was truly an honor to sit down and talk shop with one of the greats. Before our chat, I had the chance to read through Bob’s book - a fascinating manual for both making knives AND selling knives as a business. A must-read for anyone interested in the craft.

In this week’s episode of Gearing Up - I make an attempt to tackle the question ‘Why does outsourced/overseas manufacturing get so much hate?’ 

I say ‘attempt’ because it was difficult to articulate all my points, but I try. I talk about supporting brands and designers based in the U.S. that either collaborate with brands based overseas, or outsource their manufacturing overseas. 

Either way - let me know your thoughts!

I’m making a bold prediction - 2023 is going to be the year of the SMALL KNIFE. You guys know I’m pumped about that! 

I’ve been seeing a lot of really great mini/micro/compact variations on awesome designs including some from TJ Schwarz, Lucas Burnley, and more. 

I realized somewhere through recording that some of these are already released and others are still preorders/announced - so apologies for any confusion! 

Let me know what you think we’re going to see more of in the knife world in 2023!

In this episode of Gearing Up, we’re talking about slimming down the carry and making conscious decisions about what goes in my EDC bag.

I wanted to find a way to purposefully carry less and use the bag space that I had more efficiently. Of course, a huge shout out to TomToc for sending over their Explorer Crossbody Sling Bag for me to check out. The bag has taken over my EDC when I need to get out of the house. I especially love the minimal design and nice little details throughout the interior pockets.

Be sure to check it out if you’re in the market for a new bag and want to take some practical steps to carrying less, but more effectively…..if that makes sense haha

In this episode of Gearing Up, we’re taking a look a some of the essentials that rarely get the spotlight. We’ve all got these must-have EDC items that get tucked away and almost forgotten about until they’re needed - then we’re so glad that they are there for us!

My list looks something like this:

Tide To Go Pen
Apple AirPods Pro
NiteIze G-Series Carabiner
Funky Forage Industries Gear Grid
Soul Built MarkSmith - Bolt Action Permanent Marker

What about you? What is that weird or uncommon EDC item that lives in your bag just waiting for the opportunity to be the hero of the day?! Let me know what you’ve got - be sure to follow over on IG and join the convo!

I sincerely hope that this episode doesn’t come off as too negative. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I needed to talk about this. At the end of the day, I think we should be spending time lifting one another up - not criticizing content creators that you don’t agree with. 

I had another episode scheduled, but I decided to push it back to make room for this last-minute recording. I saw a video posted on Taylor’s (Best Damn EDC) Instagram that was about a creator calling him out for being bad for EDC. 

Obvious problems with the clip/video aside, I watched the video that it came from and it left me with some thoughts. After sleeping on it, I couldn’t get it off my mind. 

Instead of calling someone bad for the community - open a dialogue. Send them a message. Let’s all work together to keep the community positive and growing.

And if you have any thoughts on my thoughts ——- shoot me a message! Let’s chat.

In this week’s episode of Gearing Up - we’re talking about why I consider myself an EDC enthusiast. Why being ‘Always Prepared’ is so important, and what you should consider if you’re new to the EDC world!

Also - I’m sick, and not in my usual location. Apologies in advance for sub-par audio quality!

This is episode one of a multi-part series based on the Alphabet Superset from Struthless on YouTube.

This episode of Gearing Up is all about carrying a Backup Blade - why I carry one, how I decide what knife will be today’s backup, and some of the problems that a second knife solves for me. 

Do you carry more than one blade? If so, why? How do you decide what knife to carry as a backup? If not - what do you think about the idea of carrying multiple blades? Overkill? 

Here’s some links for things I mentioned:

• Kizer Laconico Yorkie Thumbstud
• BrassWerx on Instagram
• Admin Pouch - Nutsac
• Alphabet Superset - Struthless on YouTube

In this weeks episode of the podcast, I’m going through all the reasons why you should not use your knife to pry things. We’re gonna talk about all of the reasons I carry a prybar every day and why I think you should give it a shot if you’re not already on team prybar.

In this episode, we talk about some of my favorite makers and some of the reasons why I like my favorite prybars.

In this weeks episode of Gearing Up, we’re talking about how I record the podcast. I take you guys through all of the gear that I use and all of the things that make the show work as well as some of the work I’ve put in to streamline this process as much as possible from the recording device to the software to the microphone and I host a cover at all in this episode. It’s not really an EDC episode, but it’s still something that I use pretty regularly. I figured it would be fun to walk through the tools that I use in the process and maybe it just might inspire other folks to start a podcast if it’s something they’re interested in doing.
