10 Amazing BUDGET EDC Items on Amazon 2023

Great budget everyday carry and travel gear you can find on Amazon. Here I unearth some genuinely useful hidden EDC gems you can find on Amazon which don't break the bank.

This channel is here to give you ideas and inspiration when it comes to finding great Everyday Carry, Travel Gear and Gadgets, on the back of solid and detailed reviews alongside years of experience, which I hope will make life and travel just a little bit more frictionless and fun.

Here are links to the products featured. This can consist of Amazon affiliate links and supplier affiliate links and website links. See below for more on affiliate links.

Oh, and you might spot a couple of title errors in the video (my fault during the edit) - so for the sake of clarity the C1 Cutlery is from Roxon and the Microfiber Tower is from Eono - apologies for any confusion.

Product Sourcing:

When it comes to sourcing a product for review, I will usually either  purchase and item personally or reach out to a supplier requesting a sample for review.  Many suppliers are supportive if they are confident in their product, appreciating the value of greater exposure.

I am sometimes sent a product by a supplier which I may include if the product fits planned content and I believe will be of interest to you, my audience. The product needs to be worthy of a review and I always make it clear to the supplier that they cannot influence or be involved in the content in any way. It is not in my interest to review inferior or poor quality products and therefore as you might expect many product offers are politely declined.

Any sponsored videos (paid for reviews) are clearly stated as such so there can be no misunderstanding.

Sometimes a supplier will provide a link to the product or the supplier which I am happy to include in the description.  Sometimes I will be provided with an affiliate link so I can earn a commission on sales and this helps to support channel costs but never at the expense of an honest review. There is no cost to you and in some cases discounts can be obtained via the link or via an included code.

If a product I have reviewed is available from Amazon I will often include an Amazon link in the description.  As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. If you purchase a product or service with the links that I provide I may receive a small commission. There is no additional charge to you.

Replying to Comments:

I really appreciate the feedback in the comments - I find it a source of knowledge and inspiration - so thank you to all of you who take the time to contribute. This is not just for me as the creator, it is a valuable source of information for all readers of the comments. I have recently found that if I continue to respond to all the comments as the number of videos builds, it takes significant time away from being able to produce new content which would be very counter productive! So my aim is to read everything I can and reply when I can, after each video goes live for the first few hours at least, and beyond that when possible. I'll see how that works out 😊

Please consider subscribing and being notified to keep up to date with new video releases.

Thank you for supporting the channel.

You might spot a couple of title errors in the video (my fault during the edit) - thanks Eyal for pointing this out - so for the sake of clarity the C1 Cutlery is from Roxon and the Microfiber Tower is from Eono - apologies for any confusion.

Jon, someone once mentioned that you are to EDC as Bob Ross was to painting. Your videos are a breath of fresh air after scrolling through other channels where people think that you aren’t REALLY EDCing if you don’t carry around a $120 titanium coin, a $60 handkerchief, and a $400 pocket knife.

Your content is very thoughtfully put together and it shows. Keep on doing what you do!

[mitchblackmore]

I swear, your videos are equal parts EDC information and ASMR. The sound and lighting of your videos is absolutely mint! (I'm jealous of your knick-knack shelves in the background)

15:15 accurate depiction of average airport checkpoint. Thanks for the interesting selection.

[juergenska]

OMG your channel is soooo great 🎉 I binged a lot of your videos over the last days 👍

[vidzilla]

That Gerber knife has been my EDC for a year now, that I use several time every day. and scissors come in credibly handy while fishing also 👍🏼

[FISHDINHO]

The Lumintop flashlight been on my keychain for 3 years. It's great. Looks even better with a bit of wear too.

[ELaster]

You've really gotten into the affordable gear with great value - and I really appreciate it and think you're doing amazing job at it ☺️
Thanks as always!

[icephoenix]

A lot of these items i was already looking into, then you uploaded this video, making a very good overview of them 👍

[mohamadzbib]

grate tool set., it has many useful items thanks for the video.

[captainbilgewater]

You've done it again, Jon. That Viperade VE3 is a beauty.

[robm]

Great video, some nice affordable items. I loved the B roll / out-take during the Gerber, it made me laugh. Thanks Jon!

[sloanNYC]

The Lumintop diffusers usually glow in the dark too. I’ve become a fan. I recently got the same carry case, so far really like it.

[pretentiousname]

The gerber armbar is just another example of Gerber *almost* getting things right. A lock for the driver, a spot for the pocket clip, and it would have been a real winner.

Even moreso when you look at some of the alterantes they made with it. The slim 'drive' 'cut' and whatever they called the corkscrew one were slightly more minimal and directed in their uses.

[fairbanksjp]

Thanks for posting these great videos. Simple, but great ideas!

[ImTerero]

That was a funny little segment on excess luggage

[vaughanh]

Great vid Jon, very useful seeing lots of affordable stuff. Thanks and best wishes.

[austinyoung]

Armbar comes in tomorrow to add to the edc. I may pick that flashlight up too

[sfoxhound]

is the roxon set UK compliant if the knife locks?

[paulstanley]

Another brilliant video. I’m just sending links of your videos to my family for Christmas ideas. Anything you recommend is top notch. If my relatives are reading this, no slip lock knives except the one in this video as a backup!
