What do you think? …

Why do so many people carry small knives in their pocket regularly? It's something I've never understood. Is it a protection thing, utility thing, both, neither?
Dan Saltman
@zackshapiro Depends on the person of course, but its mostly utility. You dont realize how convenient it is until you see how you can use it in your day (opening boxes, prying things apart, etc..) - They just clip to your pocket also, which makes it less of a hassle to carry.
James Mundy
@zackshapiro I was thinking the same thing. Some of these knives look a bit too serious for even the most troublesome box.

@_jamesmundy @zackshapiro Came here to ask the same question as Zack—they definitely look like they are a bit too badass for simply opening amazon packages. Which maybe means I need more adventure in my life?

@willimholte @_jamesmundy @zackshapiro Most of the folks that are into this EDC lifestyle are typically not your urban dwellers. This is a bit minimal in my humble opinion. Do a quick search on youtube for EDC and you will see all kinds of stuff. BoB (bug out bags) to Zombie bags.

@dbl Hey Daniel! I'm a big fan of the model you guys are using. I got in touch with one of the founders of famousoutfits.com on reddit and he said that you were helping to mentor them. Do you think that you'll expand the EDC site design/concept into other realms or are you just happy helping a few people out who might be doing something similar?

@tim_finnigan1 Hey- I think its definitely too early to tell where it will head. For now, we are doing a ton of traffic ( almost 2m visits/mo) just with gear/accessories content and we think we can flourish in that space. The market is obviously huge (just watches or cellphones alone is tens of billions/year) so the aim is to really create the best experience for guys to discover great products. One of the other unique things we have a patent pending for is 'occupational search' - So you could say "show me what pens architects buy" - I think that feature alone is very cool.

This website is evil. It will make you buy cool stuff.
