Five Things Every Man Should Have in His Pockets

[Terry292]

A Zippo lighter, a good fountain pen, a pipe tool, a utility knife, a firearm. Feel free to add your own necessities.

The things i miss most if they are not in my pockets> Keys and wallet :affraid:

My EDC's include a lighter (sometimes Zippo, more often lately my Xikar soft flame, although the zippo is the true multi-fueler in the lighter world), knife, Surefire flashlight, wallet, keys and cell phone. My Xikar cutter is often included as well. I also usually carry my Timbuk2 but that is another whole can of worms, and my GHB which contains pistol and other essentials since I don't CCW.

My typical three-point check: Wallet, Keys, Phone.

I never thought to carry a firearm in my pocket. That seems like it belongs on a leg or a shoulder. Plus, if I stuck my hand in my pocket to retrieve my pipe but accidentally pulled the trigger on my gun, well, I wouldn't want to face that situation half-cocked.

A handkerchief. If not for yourself, then for any weeping woman you should happen to meet.

I have enough trouble keeping my pants on now.

Yes because it's cool to have a woman wipe her eyes with your snot rag.

You guys must have some awfully big pockets :lol:

Guns, knives, multiple lighters, cutters and tools? You're gonna need some serious susupenders to keep them trousers up! I'm guessing you don't go in for the trim and slim look in pants :lol:

One small key ring with three keys on it, one slim front pocket wallet with only a DL and a bank card in it. That's it, period. I hate having a bunch of crap in my pockets.

Yes, actually the 5.11 cargo pants have pretty much become my daily wear in lieu of jeans.

One key, drivers license, money

I would assume he wouldn't offer if it was full of snot...then again....

:lol!: The handkerchief was my grandfather's advice. He also said, "Just don't be a damned fool and hand her a used one."

Nothing in my pockets except for some change and keys. Thats it. A gun? Tough neighbourhood eh?

I tried the handkerchief thing. I really did. Whenever I pulled it out, it was covered in lint. Not classy. Also, once it was used and put back, my leg got itchy.

Now when a lady needs a wipe, I hand over the box of kleenex. Still not classy but at least hygienic.
