Reddit mentions of Fisher Space Pen Bullet Pen - 400 Series - Chrome w/ Clip - Gift Boxed

I'll interpret "guy stuff" as "EDC stuff".

• A Flowfold Minimalist slim wallet
  
• A Zebra F-701 stainless steel pen with a Fisher Space refill so it can write anywhere. This isn't a "tactical" pen by LE/TSA standards, but is a solid stainless steel tube, if you know what I mean.
  
• If you prefer something smaller, a Fisher Space Bullet Space Pen and/or a Zebra Mini mechanical pencil TS-3.
  
• You might also want something to write on, and a 3-pack of Field Notes, Pitch Black Edition in Dot-Grid isn't a bad choice unless you're into fountain pens, in which case you'd be better served with a Clairefontaine or. Rhodia pocket notebook. (They will feather fountain pen ink less, resulting in finer lines.)
  
  Bonus item: This isn't under $30, but $45 wil buy you a Leatherman Skeletool, which is one of the most universally useful items I own.
  
  Edit: "EDC" stands for Every Day Carry. To paraphrase the /r/EDC sidebar, EDC means the essentials that I carry a daily basis. Things that I either use every day, or want to have with me in case I might need them. Sorry for the confusion, /u/ForgottenEcho and /u/Sanctitas.

They look pretty slick, too. Probably my favorite behind the Tornado, which is the best-writing pen I've ever used for its price point. The only reason I don't still use the Tornado is because I received a very nice pen as a gift that I otherwise would not be able to justify buying, and it does write incredibly smooth.

Your bag may or may not be EDC by definition but here is a quick pack outline.

Bag: Vertx EDC Gamut
This is a CCW oriented bag, search LoadedPocketz and Youtube for reviews and the bag in action. There's a ton of organization in it for carrying lots of stuff, plus it's loaded with Velcro so you can either use Velcro add-on's or use their Tactigami to convert anything Molle to attach to their velcro.
Organizers - The Gamut is great but you might want to throw in something like a Maxpedition EDC/Beefy/Fatty to organize tools and supplies as needed, plus you can take them out of the bag if you want to be more mobile. E.G. leave bag in car but take IT toolkit with you to a site.

Tools:

• Wiha ESD safe bit screwdriver
  
• Leatherman - any one with the bit driver piece, (Charge/Skeletool etc) be sure to get the bit driver extension and bit sets. I use a Charge TTI with Nylon Sheath as that's the only one that fits everything together.
  
• Klein Full Size Multi-Bit For when you need a full size screwdriver, you can use your own bits for customization.
  
• Fenix PD22
  Small light with multiple settings you so can use low settings for close up work with minimal reflection, or full brightness for other uses. Lots of lights will work for this purpose, headlamps work even better for hands-free but you'll look like a dork.
  
• USB Battery - Anything Anker branded that fits your power requirements, I use their 16,000mah battery as it fits in my Gamut perfectly.
  
• Zip-ties
  
• Tape measure - whatever size works for your needs
  
• Electrical tape and/or small rolls of duct tape
  
• Pen - Fisher Space Pen
  
• Small notebook - Field Notes or similar
  
• Portable USB Cables- Kero and Griffin make small USB cables for charge and sync like this
  
• Cleaning wipe, wet naps microfiber towel - nothing worse than touching a gross computer, give it a wipe down first, then clean and dry your hands anywhere with wet naps and the microfiber.
  
• Screen cleaner wipes
  
• Small med pack - make your own but a few bandaids and Neosporin will fix any small cut you'll get from opening a computer or server. Tylenol, allergy meds, tums, anything like that.
  
  Then you have the EDC items you'll hear most people say:
  
• Water bottle
  
• Bandana
  
• Pocket tools - e.g folding knife/keychain light/keysmart/Leatherman Micra/Juice
  
• Bigger med kits
  
  

For Light Carry:

• Leatherman Style PS - TSA approved or Leatherman Micra
  
  
• Fenix E12 Flashlight - I believe this is the successor to the EO5
  
  
• Zebra F-301 Pen or Fisher Bullet Space Pen - the stainless wears better in your pocket.
  
  
• Moleskin Volant Notebook
  
  
• SOG Flash I - if you can swing the extra $10 or get the cheaper pen, I HIGHLY recommend this knife as a very minimal yet practical knife. I've sort of chunked the rest and this one is with me all the time. Also very public-friendly size.
  
  

Papa Johns worker with Irma right around the corner.

Top Row (from left to right):

Oakley SI Half Jacket 2.0: $72 with knockoff polarized mirrored lenses bought on amazon here for $20.

Leatherman Pro Wave: Not a special edition of Wave, just bought through Leatherman's Pro program. $55 with the clip found here for $5.

Timex Ironman Classic 30: Great $30-$40 digital watch that through everything has yet to hiccup, let alone fail, once.

iPhone 7: Matte Black. I'm one of those people who actually doesn't love or hate apple of android. I just happen to have a macbook and an iPhone, and that works for me.

Otterbox Symmetry Series: Wanted a $35 case to match my phone and got one. Lint and dust all over the port openings and inside the case?! Works great, just likes to get dirty.

Oakley SI Flak Beta Prism: $117 through Oakley's standard issue, these are the steel frames thanks to some confusing customer service calls. Polarized lenses with their mumbo jumbo technology actually make colors pop a bit.

Middle Row:

Black Leather Wallet: I don't know, probably found at Kohls or something. Nothing special, just gets the job done.

Field Notes Expedition: Awesome $13 notebooks that use a plasticy paper for writing in any conditions. Finally halfway through my first book, as I like to use all of the real estate available on each page. A bit worn, but character, right?

Amazon Special Wristwatch: There's so much conflicting branding everywhere, who knows who makes it. Anyway, have had it for a while and it seems to tell time. The band is a bit weird, but what would one expect for $16?

Car Keys: RIP me. I drive a minivan. sigh. Oh well, it's what I got.

Bottom Row:

Spyderco Tenacious: Perfect $40 knife if you don't want a beater and also don't want your wallet to scream in agony. I just need a good whetstone set to be able to do it justice.

Bose Soundsport Earbuds: Stay in my weird ears. I exercise regularly, but that doesn't mean I like it. Music helps me forget the lactic acid burning my muscles. They don't make the audio-only ones anymore, so here's a $99 pair for apple devices.

Wristbands: Air Force Academy in blue and Domestic Violence in purple. I wear these because I don't want to expose myself to the world of "Etsy." yikes.

Chrome Fisher Space Pen Bullet With Clip: ~$20 and so damn slippery. Awesome pen for being a pen, but I need something more practical for greasy hands. Any ideas? Not looking for anything more than like 30 bucks.

Kizer Vagnino Velox 2: A beautiful flipper on ballbearings. HOLY cow this thing flies out with vengeance and feels like a million bucks. A true gentleman's folder. However, I am not a gentleman... I see some ugly grip tape in it's future to make up for impracticality of no serrations on the back of the blade or handle for grip. Before anyone tries to complain about a 17 yr old with a $200 knife, I found 'er on Massdrop for $82 after shipping. Would I say it is worth the 13 hours of work needed to pay for it? Yes. Yes I would.

Here's one in silver too. This is the one i have http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000WGDFPY/ref=s9_psimh_gw_d0_g229_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=mobile-1&pf_rd_r=0Z86ESJCRGTJZBNK36W9&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=2068141862&pf_rd_i=mobile

I disagree.

May I present: The Space Pen.

>Writes at any angle, even in Zero Gravity. Simply the most versatile pen ever made.

I was gifted one for my b-day and my god is this the best pen ever. I use it every day at work. Write On!

Here is my item - a skull scarf.
