The advent of EDC multitools over the last few decades has been bolstered by generation after generation of adventurers and hard workers just trying to do what they do, but better. Sure, you could carry around everything in your toolbox. Let’s go down the list. Pliers. Wire cutters. Screwdriver. Scraper. Can opener. Saw. Diamond plate file. Scissors. The list goes on, but you can see how things are going to get heavy real quick.
EDC Multitools are designed to cram as many different tools into the palm of your hand as it humanly possible, like a Swiss army knife on steroids. This lightweight, compact portability allows EDC’s to go in places where many tools cant, specifically, in your pocket.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a Sunday house project or a three week float trip down the canyon. Having the right tool on hand when you need it is not only incredibly convenient and time saving, but it could also mean the difference between failure and success in heat-of-the-moment survival scenarios.
