Comment did not show up immediately. I was referring to the cyclops.
EDC is it always carry the same (few) items or adapt it for different circumstances? I have a couple of items I always have with me plus two or three “kits” that I pick up depending on season etc.
My everyday carry blade, in Florida, is a Boker Strike Plus. This is an automatic knife. I have carried one on me since 2018 or 2019. I was having lunch with an old friend when I asked if he owned an automatic knife. He said, no, so I handed the one in my pocket. I like these knives, so I had a few more on hand unused to replace the one that I gave away. These not fancy knives but are robust and provide excellent service.
I'm not sure that I'd count anything in the pockets of my trousers - an article of clothing that I wear - as part of my 'EDC'. If it is attached to a belt - something else 'worn' but whose primary use is to hold up the previously mentioned trousers - or carried (key word!) in a bag, pouch or pack, then those items I would consider 'EDC', whether I carried them every day or not.
What seems to be apparent is the vagueness or flexibility of acronyms. They shift according to need, culture, activity and even mood. 'Every Day Carry' does not - and should not mean 'Every Day Use'; it seems to describe a range of useful stuff that might be of service at some, unspecified point in the day.

It is an excellent point. In my mind the question refers to knives, yet, my pockets also contain a Glock 19, extra magazine, streamlight, OC gel, daily medication, fountain pens, candy (needed for diabetes) and occasionally a tourniquet plus NARCAN inhalers.
