Everyday Carry: Electric

From Ben Franklin to Nikola Tesla (and sure, Edison, if you must include him), electricity has fascinated great minds the world over. But this gear guide isn’t about the zappy stuff—it’s a collection of our favorite electric-colored equipment to brighten up your everyday carry.

The James Brand Hardin Carabiner

Carabiners: Until you start carrying one, you’ll never realize just how handy it is to be able to clip and unclip your keys at a moment’s notice. And The James Brand’s Hardin Carabiner (in black and electric moss) is the handsomest carabiner we’ve seen in a while.

Everyman Grafton Pen

You’ll be writing at lightning fast speeds after switching from cheap disposable pens to Everyman’s supremely balanced, smooth writing gel ink pen. It’s made from anodized aluminum, which means it’s basically indestructible (and can conduct a little bit of electricity if you really need it to).

Gerber GDC Money Clip

What’s faster and flashier than a slim money clip to hold your cash and cards? How about a money clip with a quick-deploy fixed blade knife? Gerber’s GDC Money Clip combines two EDC favorites in one compact tool, with a sharp color scheme that makes it stand out from the crowd.

The James Brand Chapter Knife

EDC gear doesn’t get much smoother than The James Brand’s Chapter Knife. A contrast-colored thumb stud allows for fast and frictionless blade deployment, and a titanium frame-lock construction makes it as lightweight as it is sturdy.
