Keychain: Brass Scout Hook
The Scout Hook is perfect for opening bottles and it stays secure on your belt with no worries of it ever coming off. I also have an emergency stash cash with a cool $100 bill rolled up inside for those ‘just in case’ moments. The Prometheus EKO is there when I don’t want to get my blades dirty on gross packing tape. Titanium Screwdriver attachment for those times when you need to get things fixed! And the Burnley Knives Copper Rose Stamped tag rounds the keychain carry off. -

Hank: Huckleberry Woodchuck
Background:
I've always been obsessed with the ‘things I carry in my pockets’. I was so pleased to learn it was a global phenomenon. I fit right in!
I am a professional photographer & cinematographer. I also run production for the world's largest online magic retailer, Ellusionist. We sell custom decks of cards, props, tricks, and training for magicians. Lastly, I run Montgomery Leather Works, a small boutique leather shop making heritage handmade goods.
My hobbies happen to be what I do for a living - so I am super blessed to be able to do what I love. I love to shoot leisurely, and work in my shop! Being a magician has its perks too, hanging out with buddies, blowing minds for free drinks and ripping around on my electric longboard!
Favorite EDC Tool:
My favorite is definitely the Burnley Kihon. It’s the most beautiful piece of kit I have ever owned. Lucas Burnley is a master at what he does and to own a piece straight out of his shop is incredible. You can feel the difference in every aspect of holding a custom.
