Funny story. I was in court once and my nose started to run so I asked the courtroom clerk if I could have a tissue from the box on her desk. She asked me why I couldn't use the handkerchief in my breast pocket and I had to explain, on the record, that it's a "pocket square" and it's purely decorative.

I’ve been in a suit all week. No overcoat needed. Had to carry my jacket in the afternoon. Awesome running weather.

Back to work huh? My agency is all shut down until Jan 2021... I dusted my suits off. Need to make sure I look good for that court date

what all do you carry?

Car key
Wallet
Pocket knife
Bandana/hanky (sometimes).
Mask

that’s it for me

What knife do you carry? I discovered CRKT CTO knife... pretty cool. looks like a pen

My EDC with a suit.
Wallet in left breast pocket. Pen in that convinient pen pocket.
Phone in right breast pocket
this creates nice balance.

I carry key fob only... leave the house keys, etc in a car. Right pant pocket.
Hanky... left butt pocket for my sweat or my son's boogers.

I like the look of opinel, but damn it is hard to open...

yeah the rotating cylinder thing isn’t the most efficient. But damn the knife is so light. Barely even know it’s there.

I just showed this picture to my Baltimorean wife and asked if she'd want to do that. Her response: "I dont know if I'd want to eat crabs in public. Crabs are more of a private thing."

I'm probably going to get my native Maryland status (grew up in Montgomery County) revoked for this, but crabs are almost more trouble than they're worth. Lobsters have a much better meat/work ratio.

I wholeheartedly agree. I prefer crab in cake form where someone else has already done the hard part.

I love a good Low Country Boil where you cover the picnic table in newspaper and dump out the Crab, Lobster, Shrimp, sausage, potatoes and corn. Lots of fun. Apart from that I always go crab cakes or lobster rolls preferring the grungy work be done in the kitchen.
