I get most excited about EDC gear because it’s so personal—you get to decide what you want at the ready depending on your day to day. Everyday carry essentials aren’t overly tactical and don’t require fumbling through your toolbox or kitchen drawers: It’s minimal design with maximum utility.
While I love geeking out on high-end pocket knives and flashlights, I love a good EDC deal even more. And, ahead of Amazon Prime Day, there are plenty to go around. I rounded up the five best EDC Prime Day deals under $50 to add to add to and upgrade your kit. Whether it’s a small blade or a reliable pen and pad to jot down a note, these EDC essentials fit into your daily life and provide some welcome convenience without weighing you down.
The Civivi Baklash is at its lowest price in 30 days at just $37. I love the black-on-black blade and handle combo which makes the design even more sleek. The stonewashed finish not only looks cool, but also gives the handle extra grip. A finger chortle—that cutout at the base of the blade—gives you good leverage and keeps your index finger safely out of the cutting path. Though my favorite feature is the flipper blade: simply flip the tab on the spine for a lightning fast deployment.
An oft forgotten part of EDC is a good pen and notebook. The Lamy Safari is a handsome fountain pen that makes note taking more elegant than just pounding away at a laptop keyboard. Even if you’re just using it for a grocery list, trust me, it makes it feel more diligent and decisive. Moleskin notebooks are the Platonic Ideal—in my opinion—because of the thick paper that doesn’t bleed and durable binding. I’ve had one ever since I can remember, and continuously buy them to fill up with work notes, personal, thoughts, and to-do lists.
