I suppose I do edc a mattock since there's always one in my van.

Re. knives, I'm guilty of owning loads but I don't understand people who build an EDC kit or bugout bag that contains loads of knives. Just in case the other 11 fail I guess.

I have a camera and I like it but it's so bulky that realistically I rarely ever use it. Besides which my phone takes equally good photos, is simpler to use and only really lacks zoom by comparison.

Shouldn't be a problem as long as they're sharp!

Next experiment will be using an axe!
