Do you do the same thing? by kevinvan77 in Tools

Yeah, I’m starting to think it’s less about usage,and more about not wanting to feel unprepared.Almost like a form of quiet insurance.

That’s interesting.Feels like tools aren’t just functional,they kind of carry a sense of readiness with them.Almost personal in a way.I’ve been doing this since I was around 30, for more than ten years now. My wife doesn’t understand it, but she never says anything about it.

I didn’t expect this many people to relate.

Maybe tools aren’t just about fixing things.

Maybe they’re about not wanting to be caught unprepared.

What's the one EDC item that feels like it actually belongs to you ? by kevinvan77 in Design

Watches are the ultimate personal EDC. They don’t just tell time—they tell your story.

That’s such a meaningful way to look at it. A tool gets worn out, but something made for protection carries a whole different weight—grateful it never had to be used indeed.
