    Was searching around Target recently and found a nice front pocket wallet made by Swiss Gear. Designed with 3 card slots on the front, a long pocket on the back with a money clip, and a slide in side pouch.

    I had a feeling it would fit a sak cadet and a single AAA light so I purchased it.

    After some head scratching and tweaking I got the following to fit:

    SAK Alox cadet
    Maglite Solitaire LED
    Niteize Inova pen minus the clip cap
    Niteize Doohickey
    2 toothpicks
    Small notepad, glue binding, about 6 sheets

    Total thickness is .9 inch when loaded. 2.75″ wide by 3.75″ tall.

    I did remove the money clip as it almost doubled the thickness of the wallet, and was upside down in relation to the slots so it could not be used as belt or pocket clip. It was held in with double stick tape so easy to remove. I need to glue the slit in the leather back.

    I do not have anything in the back pocket, as I want to keep the overall thickness to the minimum.

    I do like this setup, a basic small edc, but it covers the bases for me. I might add a few bad aids to the rear pocket and maybe swap out the doohickey for some other type of (better) pry tool.
