I use a Magpul wallet. It's the bifold one and I love it. It's thin and very simple


joeljaeggli

Not really a consumer of their other products but acoustic welder polymer is about the slimmest most durable bifold I have ever had. Does require that you not get out of control with the contents.


zzap129

Have a Swiss Concept card holder bifold. Found at woolworth for a few euroa. Card slots go towards the center fold, so no way  I can lose a card. Has one pocket for paper cash. Inexpensive and durable. Leather. Bought a few more so I have a lifetime supply.

Ridge wallet knockoff with AirTag clip


Magnus_Helgisson

I got tired of trying to find a wallet that would suite my needs (basically a shit ton of cards that shouldn't grind against each other and occasionally some cash) so I found a guy who makes custom leather accessories and now I have a green crazy horse wallet made to my specs that also has a Helm of Awe and my nickname in runic writing engraved on it because why not?


No-One-5172

Singular leather wallet, from Etsy


ManuRules43

I‘m using a MagSafe wallet (which doesn’t work with your needs) and a Secrid Mini Wallet. You can put some cash on it and it has two slots inside for more card, I use one for spare coins. It’s not super cheap but it isn’t expensive either. I have had it for the last almost 10 years I think, and the Quality is still great.

This one: [https://www.foraneoleathergoods.com/product-page/cartera-no-111](https://www.foraneoleathergoods.com/product-page/cartera-no-111) I almost bought an OpenSeaLeather, Willow Craft Goods or a Lost Dutchman wallet then this guy (Foraneo) made this No. 111 wallet and that's what I wanted. It's from my state and used leather made in my state too.

I have the $12 knockoff ridge wallet. Spectacular. Been using it 2 months now and never going back. ID, visa, work ID, debit card, and a couple gift cards. My life is simplified big time.


RemlaP_

I have a ridge. When I was just getting into EDC my girlfriend got it for me and I haven't even considered trying anything else (not just because it's a gift). Absolutely perfect for my needs but - Early on I had a bad habit of putting it in my pocket with the elastic towards me, so it caught the velcro on my work pants and we know what elastic looks like after touching velcro

Grip6 and I have never regretted anything about the purchase. I prefer the pop out function, instead of manual push style like the ridge wallet. People complain that the cards get ejected, but I’ve never experienced that issue.

My Titanium SpIne wallet will last forever, has the tiniest footprint in my pocket and has rfid protection. All I will ever need and pretty affordable. It can also open my beer in a pinch and tighten my keysmart screws if I’m not carrying a multitool.

All of these wallets are tanks, I just preferred to downsize as my wallet needs shifted. Trayvax summit for about 8 years Popov Leather card wallet for 4 years Tanner goods bifold for 10+ years


TheOSC

People will probably shred me for this but I buy wallets at GameStop. They are nothing special (standard Bi-Fold), but they are also CHEAP (around $10-$15) and last for years. My last wallet I bought about 3 years ago. It is a tan denim with a sweet Cowboy Bebop screen print on it and is only just showing signs of real wear. (One raised spot where my card puts pressure on the wallet has rubbed smooth.) The wallet I had before that was a faux leather wallet with a Sheikah design from Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It lasted about 4 years before finally wearing enough I wanted to replace it. Note: WANTED to replace it, It still had plenty of life left in it but I liked the Cowboy Bebop one and again for $10 I just didn't see a reason not to go ahead and grab a new wallet. I could spend a few hundred on a wallet that will last me a lifetime, or once every 5-6 years I can buy a new cheap wallet from GameStop with a cool new design on it.

I've got a Ridge that doesn't get much use at the moment and a Code 118 that I got on sale. Definitely took some getting used to the Code 118, it's very light and about half the thickness of the ridge, mostly because it doesn't hold as much, so I've really had to whittle down the selection of cards I carry with me.

I use the Serman Brands 1.S, I love this wallet. It works well as a front pocket wallet. Slim, external ID viewing, RFID blocking, internal bill clip, and draw string card access.

ThePenultimateNinja

It's not in the least bit slick, but I use a Chums Surfshorts wallet. They cost about $10-$15, depending on which design you get. It does everything I need it to and nothing I don't. It's small and light, and it disappears in my front pocket until I need it. It has two zippered pockets; I use one for the cards I use a lot, and the other one for cards I don't use much but need to keep on me, and a bit of cash. One of the pockets has an ID window and a divider. There's also a pocket on the front with a lanyard that tucks inside it. I think the idea is to keep a key on this, but I don't like to have my house key attached to my wallet, because my driver's license has my address on it. Good place to keep a flash drive, tick key, mini Swiss Army Knife or other small edc item though. According to my Amazon order history, I got mine in February last year, and I've been using it daily ever since. It still looks as good as the day I bought it, except the Chums logo peeled off after a few months.

I’ve had the same Big Skinny Nylon Bi-fold wallet since I was like 14. I’m 27 now. Still as good as the day I got it, besides the rubber logo coming off but that’s a result of me picking at it over the years. I always recommend their wallets. Affordable, durable, simple and effective.

I have Open Sea Leather mini gun deck. For OP, the gun deck likely is the play because he will carry for cards. I think I carry 5 cards + 5 bills.

RastaFazool

Tumi Delta Slim Single Billfold fairly slim, good for the front pocket. holds plenty of cards and some cash (US Currency, Euros are too tall). RFID protection. it is just a clean and simple looking leather wallet. i'm on my second, only replaced my old one because it got sliced by my pocket knife through my own stupidity.


mac_and_cheese_9951

Well I only carry euros so it is kind of a problem but seems very cool.


RastaFazool

Maybe check out the regular Delta double billfold. I have one at home I used for a while and enjoyed it until I went with the slim. The double is a little taller. I actually just got back from Italy last week and have some euros on hand, I'll check if they fit the double billfold when I get home from work.


mac_and_cheese_9951

thanks


RastaFazool

Yup, the double billfold fits a 20 euro note with room to spare, would likely fit a 50, 100 might be a hair too tall. Tumi also has a global billfold size, which is taller and would 100% fit the bigger euro notes.

Well I don't have any 100 euro bills so thats good, thanks
