Michael writes, “I am a medical researcher and spend a lot of time in the bush of West Africa. My African EDC is very different from my U.S. EDC, for obvious reasons. I made this Field Desk so that I can carry paperwork, tools, etc on a shoulder strap should I need to venture from the motorcycle or truck. The firearm is not to use on humans, although it’s presence help keep people honest. It’s used as a last ditch resort against certain smaller wildlife in the event the 12 ga fails.” See it all at Everyday Carry . . .
Oh my word! He’s in the field without his field notes! How does he cope? Inconceivable.
Okay fine, he does have a moleskine notebook. But that’s a mere counterfeit. I bet it shows in his shooting.
It’s cool to know he can legally carry where he is. God Speed doing what you’re doing!
Nice loadout and a damn good reasoning behind it.
I always carried a small pair of binos when working in Cameroon. A monocular at least. And cannot stress the need for a fixed blade knife enough especially one with ASEK properties as pictured.
Nigel? From Cameroon!!!
Beef jerky time….
“No more goddamn jerked beef! The party’s over.”
So where is the 12 gauge in this photo? It is part of your EDC, right? Lol.
That box won’t fit in my pockets, hmmmm.
I’d find a better knife than the old USN/USAF survival knife. The blade tips break easily and hard to keep a good edge.
Actually Moleskine is superior to field notes , kinda like High point vs Sig .
1095 carbon is easy to put a good edge on and holds up ok .personly I love it for a beater field knife , and I’ve got FB that cost way over ten times that knife .
Yeah, I was just kidding.
