About Us

At 5Cs EDC, everyday carry isn’t just about tools—it’s about being ready for whatever life throws your way. Whether it’s a reliable knife, a solid flashlight, a slim wallet, or a durable watch, we believe the gear you carry should reflect who you are: prepared, dependable, and built to last.

We’re a small, family-owned company based in Iowa, and our name—5Cs—comes from the five people behind everything we do: mom, dad, and our three kids. What started as a shared passion for practical, high-quality gear has grown into a mission to help others carry with confidence.

Being family-based means we put our heart into every product we curate and every customer we serve. We're not backed by big investors or giant warehouses—just hard work, honest values, and a commitment to delivering gear we trust ourselves.

When you shop with 5Cs EDC, you're not just supporting a small business. You're becoming part of a family that believes the right tools can make all the difference—whether you're on the job, out on the trail, or just tackling your daily grind.
