    Probably not super unique but a glass breaker/seatbelt cutter. If I’m in an accident or I come upon one, I want that ability with me.

    Made a 5" aluminum baseball bat in high school shop class learning how to use a lathe. It’s been on my keys ever since. Things is probably older than most folks reading this.

      I’m now imagining two random strangers meeting in a random place, one of them with an overheating laptop, and asking the other “got some paste?” like smokers sometimes ask for a lighter.

    I keep ear plugs in my zip pouch wallet so I’m always ready for any concerts or random loud areas.

    Not necessarily unique, but I mostly always carry a small pouch containing a full D&D dice set.

    I haven’t needed dice in… years, now that I think about it, but I carry them as a symbol of luck. Not good luck or bad luck, just luck, chance. Helps me keep things in perspective when everything goes sideways.

    I’ve started carrying a fountain pen rather than a typical ballpoint. I think the writing experience is a bit more pleasant.

        I’m indifferent to squirrels… but my city has hired a falconer to scare the crows away with hawks, so now the crows symbolize the oppressed masses being persecuted by the state.

    Leaving aside points about driving licence numbers being unique or whatever, it would be the silver pentagram that I made back in the '90s and have worn (or occasionally carry in my wallet etc, when the cord breaks) ever since.

    An arch lighter version of a zippo. It fits in traditional zippo cases so I have a collection of shells that I change out to fit the mood. The current one is matte black with a cthulhu theme in brass but normally I use the mercury glass with bones and flowers. My wife calls it my zappo.

    Also the severed finger of an elf.

    Nothing anymore. But from age 18 to mid 30s I kept my busted up old guitar pick in my wallet.

    It had seen way too many shows, and it was brittle as hell. It’s in a shoebox with since other memories now.

    Less unique, I carried around phenergan pills in my pocket for about 10 years. I’d had an episode of an unknown something setting off a reaction with my throat closing up. Urgent care gave me the pills when I left the hospital and I couldn’t not take them everywhere with me for a long time.
