EDC Gear
from EDC Depot.com
We had a chance
to review some EDC gear from the EDC Depot.com
online store. The items arrived in about
two days, were packaged well and nothing
was damaged. No extra packaging to throw
away either. And a FREE
spy capsule (pill fob) !!!
We received
a TOPs Pocket Size Survival Saw and a Cord
Lock Light made by Black Crater. I opened
the box and set out threw contents for
this photo, and then there was a blur of
hands and I had to wait a while to get
the items back for more photos.
EDC = Every
Day Carry

Well I
got most of it back, but the keyring pill
container was lost to one of our editors
who had forgotten his pills the day before,
and his two pills fit perfectly inside.
I managed to get a few photographs, but
we will have to wait a while to hear how
it works out from him.
The LED
still worked on the Cord Lock Light after
everyone had played with it for a while
before I got to see it, which was it is
first test. It had been dropped a few times
and thrown around before I was able to
take a look at it, and it is no worse for
wear.
First off,
it is a decent cord lock. It is strong
and has a large opening for the cord, so
it will easily allow two strands of 550
cord (my cord of choice) The rubber on
/ off button is solid and is to be water
resistant according tot he packaging. The
bottom of the unit is a large black rubber
cap that offers access to the two CR1220
batteries.
The Cord
Lock Light has three modes of operation
that are easy to use; first click is low
light, second click of the button switches
to bright light mode and the third click
of the same button turns on blinking mode.
The Cord Lock Light blink mode is designed
for emergency signaling, it is a slow regular
blink, a little faster than a car turn
signal, but much slower than a strobe found
on some emergency lights.
I suspect
this light will be handy in more than a
few roles. Obviously as a jacket cord lock
it's a perfect option so you always have
a light. But on a first aid kit zipper,
or tied to a compass, or even on a pocket
tool or knife sheath.
The TOPs Pocket
Size Survival Saw is a four inch saw blade
with a sturdy kydex sheath that folds over to
a handle like a pocket knife. The TOPs
Pocket Size Survival Saw is 4-1/2 inches
closed and 7 inches opened. The TOPs Saw
uses a rivet connecting the blade to the
handle

EDC Depot.com sends a FREE
Spy Capsule with every order! They
come in six colors: green,
red, black, purple, gold and
blue. We got a green one (obviously)
The Free Spy Capsule dimensions
are 1-7/8 inches long and a
5/8 inch diameter. It includes
a half inch split ring key
ring which is well made and
will do a good job of securing
the free spy capsule.

The
free keyring pill container was
lost to one of our editors who
had forgotten his pills the day
before, and his two pills fit
perfectly inside. I managed to
get a few photographs, but we'll
have to wait a while to hear
how it works out for him. He
doesn't like a large key ring,
but this pill fob is not very
big, and he needs spare pills...
so we will see

I didn't take a photo
of the saw yet, so I stole this one
from the EDC Depot.com website to
show what it's blade looks like.

kydex sheath that folds over to
a handle like a pocket knife. The
