If you recall, earlier this month, we told you about a new crowdfunded “wallet” going by the name of Smallet (you can check that out here). Well, I’ve been spending the past few weeks with one, and can tell you how it works in practice.

There’s minimal, and then there’s the Smallet
When it comes to your wallet, well, you probably don’t think too much about it other than making sure you’ve got your cards, and probably some cash. As part of something you carry every day, though, it’s worth giving it some thought, as it can really help you slim down what is in your pocket. To that end, the most minimal one I’ve seen to date (other than a rubber band or binder clip) is the Smallet.

For when you need to touch things, there’s the Nudge
While most of us are staying home, there are certainly cases where we do need to head out – say, to get groceries. And, at some point we’re presumably going to getting back to a form of regular life, commuting and whatnot. If you want to avoid touching as much as you can, small devices like the Nudge are ready to help you touch things at a distance.

Staying Sharp with the Finch Runtly
Not that long ago, we told you about a newer pocket knife company that had come on the scene. We were interested in what they were creating, as one of the founders is the same fellow who’s behind Raven Watches. Those watches are some seriously nice pieces, so it seems reasonable to assume that these knives would be much the same. Handily enough, we’ve been spending time with the Finch Runtly, and can give you our take on it.

Introducing Finch Knives
What’s this, a run on EDC posts? Sure, why not? There’s plenty of things that you carry with you every day, and one of the most useful – in my opinion – is the trusty ol’ pocketknife. I tend to switch around between a few options depending on the dress code of the day, but if you want one that can do it all, this new Finch Runtly may just do the ticket.

It’s simple – we make a compact pen out of titanium
When it comes to what you carry with you every day, there are some basics that we’d all agree on – phone and wallet, primarily. Past that, well, opinions diverge. I’ve got a watch with me daily, as well as a pocket knife and handkerchief. Oh, yes, and a pen, because you never know when you might need a quick scribble or two. Currently, I’ve got a Fisher Space Pen (my second, as I lost the first), but there’s this new project, aptly called the Ti Mini Pen, that rather caught my eye.

The Microblade Pill looks to be a versatile addition to your EDC
We here at Knapsack are committed to talking to about all of the cool technology and gadgets that we’d want to put in our own knapsacks. There are occasional off-topic diversions, but this is not one of those posts. In fact, I’d putting down that tools are just a form of technology that we often don’t think of as tech. Let’s see if the Microblade Pill can’t change your mind on that.
