This week's edition features Zak (@zj_hawk) from Fort Collins, Colorado. Fun fact about this shot...it was taken after Zak donated his blood at a local blood drive. Way to go Zak!

Featured Tools:

Utility Knife: Rexford R.U.T.
R.U.T. Sheath: Scout Leather Co.
Lanyard bead: Scoopy Loops
Knife: Grimsmo Norseman
Bottle Scalper: Nicholl Knives
Pen: Ti2 Design TechLiner

Background:

Zak is a student at the University of Kansas studying Business Management with an emphasis in Entrepreneurship. He loves fly-fishing, hiking, backpacking, bush-crafting, photography, leatherwork, lacrosse, and of course, EDC gear!

Favorite EDC Tool:

Zak's favorite EDC tool is his Grimsmo Norseman, which he received from a friend almost a year ago. It's his favorite because this knife opened him up to the passionate knife community, where he has met countless folks who share the same passion in knives and general everyday carry gear! He tells us that he's very fortunate to have found such a great community.
