So I currently carry an Opinel knife, a mechanical pencil and a pen (with a tile cause I am always losing E36 M3) in a little home made thing. It looks like crap and I tried to build it a pocket for business cards but it isn't stiff enough so the business cards just get destroyed.
Is there something out there that would hold all these things and slide into a pocket?
Seems like after the magazine has done a series on designing things in cad, printing them on 3d printers, and basic machining - somebody must have taken the trip down that rabbit hole and is capable of working on this with you.
Etsy is the place to find EDC pouches that meet your exact needs.

Yes, and I found a bunch on the Amazons. Viperade and Maxpedition were 2 popular brands on there. I liked the variety and shapes of the Viperade stuff. There are other brands too and different materials like nylon vs leather.
I've been looking lately as my new, not yet received, car has a comically HUGE key fob. Between that, the wallet and the keys I already have, I wanted to see if I could give them a proper home so they're not all bunching or fighting for the same space at the bottom.

Fanny pack!
I have used a glasses case for a similar use. Otherwise the maxpedition is the go too.

I love how the still frame shows her effectively pointed her gun at his leg, and him pointed almost at the camera. I am no gun safety expert, but that seems a bit "questionable" to me.
In reply to mtn :
Agreed-fanny pack. When I see one I assume somebody is either diabetic, carrying concealed, or German.

Point taken. However, the lady bears no resemblance whatsoever to Alec Baldwin.

I don't think I am carrying enough stuff to need to wear a fanny pack and I don't really want to walk into a business meeting with a fanny pack on.

I found several in there that might work so I will give them a go soon.

Oh some of the Viperade stuff looks promising. The Maxpedition stuff all looks a little large.
