6 Amazing All Brass EDC Accessories
Hey there, Carryologists! Yong-Soo here again, back with another EDC column. We’re going to go with an all-brass theme this week! Brass is among our favorites because of its ruggedness and ability to develop a beautiful patina over time. Brass is also valued for its ease of machinability while retaining high strength. On that note, I’ve gathered up some of my favorite brass EDC items in all shapes and sizes – hope you like it!
