EDC Pendant

What it is

An EDC pendant is a small piece designed to hang from a keychain, lanyard, zipper or necklace. It may be purely decorative, such as a bead or charm, or have a simple function or moving part. Pendants are often machined from metals such as Titanium, Brass or Copper and may feature engravings or colored finishes.

How it plays

A pendant is mostly about carry and character: it adds weight, color or a personal touch to your keys or bag. Some can be spun, flipped or rolled in your fingers for a quick fidget. Over time, metal pendants pick up wear or patina that makes them more personal.

What to look for

Look at the attachment point and hole size so it fits your keyring, cord or chain. Consider weight, since heavy pendants can swing and knock against other items. Then choose material and finish based on how you want it to look and age.
