EDC by Skinth?

Post by mallie99 »

Hoping to share some info... I was very impressed by the website for Skinth Solutions, a guy in the US who makes custom micropacks. The website is currently down for maintenance (it was pretty, but useless to navigate...) Hopefully it will be back soon.

http://skinthsolutions.com/
https://www.facebook.com/SkinthSolutions (Facebook... Obviously!)

I first came across this site via LifeHacker in this article: http://lifehacker.com/skinth-pocket-she ... 1479426077. The idea of compact modular storage jumps out as a perfect EDC to me. It can me made and modified to your specifications dependant on what you actually need to carry for emergencies. Personally, I have a Maxpedition bag as my Go-Bag (Or Man-Bag as my OH refers to it!). The idea of a small sheath such as the Shinth means an option for a true EDC and an "Out and About" EDC which allows me to carry my sandwiches along with bigger emergency supplies without compromising anything.

Once the site comes back online, have a browse (or if you want to cheat, see an archived version here: http://web.archive.org/web/201310180013 ... utions.com)

They look nice! I carry my EDC in a small drawstring sack, which gets easily transferred to whichever bag I'm using.

But I'm always interested in something smaller for days out. Those look cute!

They look awesome, and i'm acking for the TB. But with taxes from the US, it'll roughly twice the price in denmark. (12.5% import tax and 25% sales tax (laid on postage aswell :roll: )). If a dealer imports it to the EU = no tax, only postage and the dealers earnings. I'm trying to be patient... :oops:
