What's your favorite piece of gear?

ive been seriously considering carrying around a d20, and a d4 in addition to my usual d6's

(for those who are wondering, its DnD shit)
 
someone mentioned the p38 in here, and those are the shit! I lost mine, but my favorite thing gear-wise is probably this sick American Camper multi-tool with a fucking tool where you can use sockets on it, and a few common sized sockets cut out of the handle. Pretty neat shit...
 
My favorite piece is a 4inch Winchester folding knife I got a long time ago, but it is super light and small, plus I have gutted a whole caribou with it before.
 
my Kleen Kanteen metal water bottle with pop top. it's durable as hell, it keeps me hydrated and I can use it to boil water other stuff in a pinch.
 
insulated coveralls. a pain in the ass to carry when its hot but can be rolled up to the size of a sleeping bag. with the right hat it totally makes you look like a worker. warmest shit ever
 
my hammock! bout 11oz and maybe 15 with the suspension.its just lovely. tarp folded up in it ;)
 
My pack. A GoLite LieSpeed. Its less than two pounds, heavy fucking duty, big, totally waterproof, and comfy as hell to wear all day.
 
i was going through old stuff and i found my brother old pack.... it's one of those old skate boarding ones from when they first came out with straps for the board..... it's my new favorite piece.... it's surprisingly can hold a lot including my sleeping bag and there's the straps on the outside if im packing heavy.... and its got all sorts of straps and shit for tightening and compacting.... sooo fucking stoked on the find
 
I would definitely say my bedding. Specifically my bag but also my mat. This past winter I managed to lift both from REI in one go. The newest thermarest (1/2 size) and a 10o Halo sleeping bag. If you could wrap yourself in warm clouds, this bag would feel exactly like that. It's super light and packs down tiny. When I'm at home I actually remove the blankets on my bed and sleep in just my bag. It's like my security blanket from age 4.

I kinda miss my old bag because I'm just sentimental, but if you don't have to pay for it there are some very nice things to be said about new gear.
 
Probably my hammock, it's big and waterproof. I've been using it as a tent for the last week in rainy Portland lol. That and a harmonica.
 
It was my dogs saddle bags, unfortunately I lost them a while back. Now I suppose my favorite piece of gear is my leather fold up cowboy hat. It's not a vital piece of gear, but it keeps the sun out of my eyes. That and my boots.
 
Probably my camping hammock or this Leatherman-style mulit-tool I found awhile back... to be honest, I've got rather nice gear for a hitchhiker, mostly because I spend more time hiking and camping than hitching these days. Got stuck into a semi-stable but unordinary lifestyle...
