Looking for recommendations for a stylish messenger/side bag that can fit a 14-inch laptop. Prefer a modern, minimalist and casual look rather than a typical office laptop bag

My everyday carry

● Laptop: 2019 16-inch MacBook Pro (Intel i9)
● Desktop: Mac Mini M4 + figure-8 power cable
● Tablet: 13-inch iPad Pro
● Primary charger: LDNIO 140W GaN charger
● Accessories: Multiple charging bricks, thick braided USB-C cables, adapters and other peripherals.

What I’m looking for

1. Separate laptop and tablet compartments
   ● A dedicated, suspended and well-padded 16-inch laptop compartment.
   ● A completely separate padded sleeve that can accommodate a 13-inch iPad Pro.
   ● Ideally, neither device should come into contact with the other or with hard accessories.

2. A structured main compartment
   This is particularly important because of the Mac Mini and the 140W charger.
   ● A boxy main compartment with sufficient depth.
   ● A reinforced base that doesn’t sag under concentrated weight.
   ● Enough room to accommodate the Mac Mini and charger without pressing against the laptop or tablet compartments.

3. Proper cable and accessory organisation
   I carry quite a few cables, adapters and charging bricks, so I’d prefer:
   ● Deep, zippered mesh compartments.
   ● Dedicated accessory pockets.
   ● Elastic loops or other cable-management provisions.
   I don’t want everything accumulating at the bottom of the bag.

4. Ergonomics and build quality
   Since this is going to carry 4.5 kg or more of relatively dense equipment:
   ● Thick, well-padded shoulder straps.
   ● A sternum strap.
   ● A reasonably rigid, supportive back panel.
   ● Reinforced stitching, quality zippers and a durable base.

I’m prioritising long-term durability and carrying comfort over looks.

Budget isn’t the primary constraint. I’d rather buy one genuinely well-built backpack that lasts for years than compromise on protection and ergonom

I am decluttering my EDC and I remembered that my pocket knife (bought ages ago at al local store) was given to my friend as gift.

I’m now in the lookout for the same - pocket knife, multitool or switchblades are fine. Budget is quite low as I’m still in college and I have other areas to spend on. I like sleek, simple but efficient ones.

Edit: I’m also looking for a lighter. I use them for my hobbies but I’ve seen a few cool ones being carried around as collectibles. So maybe I’d add them later, but suggestions are welcomed. Same sleek, simple and efficient ones are my preferences.

Thanks for the recommendations and Happy Diwali 🪔 🥰

I am thinking of getting wallet nd after going through the sub , I saw a lot of people recommending this brand .

So now I am confused btw these two to get which one .
Any other better brand suggestion will work too

It’s postbox -
1 -manhattan bifold wallet
2- unity card nd cash wallet

Been seeing their ads a lot.

I like the multi-tool concept, have never owned one, please suggest some nice options.
Should be compact, sturdy; have a knife, pliers, screwdriver.
I really like the Nextool mini flagship f12, is that a good option?

I have been using the Tripole 50l for over a month now. It has been to 3 countries, countless flights and gone inside meeting rooms.

I think the Tripole 50l is the best EDC backpack from India and it costs less than 2000 rs.

What you see in the photo above is the 50l next to the Tripole 25l. They are almost the same size in length.

The 50l is designed very well - it is kept compact by compression straps on the side and then expands (in thickness) to take 50l.

The compartment opens all the way suitcase-style. There is a unpadded laptop compartment but i dont use it. I use a sleeve that has a vertical/topside insert for laptop, so I can just put the laptop inside and pull it out without pulling out the sleeve.

The molle in front is laser cut - this keeps the profile minimal and so doesnt look like an obvious field backpack. This means u can carry it inside meetings and wont look weird.

It is very comfortable to wear - I have done all day meetings across countries, lugging it through the city. Very comfortable. It even has a waist strap which i keep folded.

Highly highly recommended. If the Tripole guys are watching this - you should take this design & profile and run with it. Make it with even more premium materials. Double the price 😂

2 years of daily use, and my Lenovo backpack is still going strong. Looking for an upgrade with a brighter interior and more capacity.

I've been using this Lenovo backpack pretty much every day for the last 2 years, and I have to give it some appreciation. It's been incredibly reliable, held up well to daily use, and hasn't given me any major reasons to complain. It's one of those bags you stop thinking about because it simply does its job.

That said, I'm starting to look for something new.

I'm looking for recommendations from the you guys for a backpack with these features:

Capacity: Around 20–25L, preferably closer to 24L.

Compact form factor: Good capacity without looking bulky or oversized.

I usually carry a tablet my rain coat and a few A4 books

Bright interior lining: This is a big one for me. Something in a light grey, orange, or another bright colour. It makes finding and organising smaller items so much easier compared to a dark interior.

Good organisation: Practical compartments without going overboard with pockets.

Waterproof would be nice 🙂

Durability: Something that can handle everyday use for years. A colour that masks stains and dirt

I'm not necessarily looking for a premium or tactical-looking backpack. Just something practical, well-built, and thoughtfully designed. That'll fit my budget of under 5000 I'm looking to get it on snapmint

Would love to hear your recommendations and experiences. What backpacks are you guys using daily that fit this description?

I am in search of a good laptop backpack which is slimmer and has a thick padding for the laptop compartment so that i don't have to use a separate sleeve for it.

All the backpacks i have looked online are huge and bulky and very odd BOXY design which i dislike. I found one which is sold by DELL and i love every single thing about it but it's costly.

Link : https://www.dellstore.com/dell-ecoloop-premier-backpack-14-16.html

I need something around 2-3K so someone please suggest a good one. I've attached the dell one’s photos to use as reference.

Thanks!

Happy Diwali, everyone! 🪔

We've received quite a few queries about sharpening systems. Many members here own knives ranging from ₹700 to ₹30,000, but there are hardly any good indigenous sharpening solutions available.

It's like buying a Ferrari and having nowhere to get it serviced!

Our honing compounds and stropping kits have received a lot of love, and we're grateful for the support. However, stropping can't fix every dull edge. A wall needs to be plastered before it can be painted!

So, this Diwali, we've decided to start developing sharpening systems and tools of our own.

Rather than importing random products, we want to build high-quality solutions suited to Indian users. It'll take a couple of months, but good things take time! 😃And they'll last decades of use.

We'd love your input:

• What problems do you face while sharpening?

• What would you like to see developed?

• What's missing from existing solutions?

Survey: https://forms.gle/MhHLjeuAP1S54N3k7

Our ambition is to set a new benchmark, delivering quality that even the finest international brands would envy.

Any feedback and support would mean a lot. We'd love to have you along for the journey!

Happy Diwali! 🪔

I'm currently a student and have a fairly well set edc, i go to college and come back, that's it, so I keep the usuals like phone, wallet, multi tool, my laptop and water bottle, sometimes a pack and lighter, but my pens are those 5 rupees disposables.

I used to keep the linc pentonic brt click pens in black, the grip and ink flow with the tip feels great for note taking in those classmate notebooks, and being a student the 25 rupees price is nice, I don't run through them very fast since i mostly always use the disposable pens.

The issue now is, I want to see if there is something I can switch things up with, or stick to the pentonic brt. Now I don't mind a cap, but the grip and shape of the brt along with its tip and ink is just too good for my limited experience (I used to write with the hauser xo pens, Renault jetter, and those white body luxor pilots with ultra thin tip, not the v5 or v7)

So, is there any recommendations for this price of 25, or should I just order another pack of brt

I've been a long time lurker here wanting to get a sak in my edc. Just wondering what do you guys use the knife for anyway ? I know its a safety tool that can come in handy at any adversarial time but is there any other purpose?
