We featured the Kaufmann Mercantile EDC Kit in early 2012 and it was hugely popular, the “everyday carry kit” includes a pair of screwdrivers, a pair of tweezers, a pry-bar and a fantastic waterproof lighter. It’s just about the most useful thing you can put in your pocket, with the possible exception of a wad of 100 dollar bills, and you can pick one up via Kaufmann Mercantile for $48 USD.
