I have a Herschel zipper wallet that's big enough to hold my cards, coins, airtag and stamp cards.
Fantom wallets are made in Coquitlam and run by the same guy who runs Ansix Auto. Really nice slim wallet with card fanning to flex your Amex Black 
RFID blocking is the first thing I look for in a wallet. Google Pay has replaced my card 9 times out of 10.
Sometimes the gas pump doesn't play nice with Google Pay and I have to tap my actual card.

I went from: 
To a free slim wallet from Temu lol. Holds 6 cards with the pop up feature, bill fold and room for a few more cards inside.
At first, it was quite the adjustment with such a small wallet. Now, I kind of like it but also know this cheap thing wasn't built to last. Will likely upgrade to something like the Fantom in the future for a more durable product.

That's essentially what I have but better haha. Pretty good price actually, perhaps I'll upgrade to that when the time comes.

I use a LV pocket organizer. Has slots for 6 internal cards + a few folded bills.
Tried the card holder, but was a little too minimal.

aliexpress RFID slim hard case card holders.
under $10 and kind of disposable due to cost.
1st was a Ridge knock off, current has a switch to push cards out in a fan manor vs the Ridge's notch where you push the cards with your thumb

Do those RFID blocking ones have at least one slot that is unblocked?

You can DIY.
I mean, RFID-blocking is so cliche. Just wrap tinfoil around a card, slide the card into a slot, cut out the excess foil and voila, RFID blocking as long as that piece of foil stays inside the slot.
Yes, it's not perfect and fail proof. But I doubt any "RFID-blocking" claim card goes much further, it's usually some metal mesh wrapped inside. And for blocking some off-the-shelf RFID transmitter, it's plenty.

used to use a Schedoni card holder. Slim. Holds 2-3 cards on each side. Thats it. 
Loved it. Slim. Light weight.
Wife got me a secrid wallet for birthday. Switched to it. Its fine as well. Seems high quality.
Still have the Schedoni for times I really want to travel light.

Been using a secrid wallet for the past 3yrs, love it. Super easy to pull out cards and its slim enough that it doesn't feel bulky like traditional wallets

lots of different options in this thread.
I think i may pick up a bellroy. I like the traditional style folding wallet. Though a few of the moneyclip/wallet hybrids look interesting too.

i don't give a crap about money clip / RFID. so when i see one i just pick one up from aliexpress / amz and use their cheapest version for $5 bucks.
Now the leather ones yes, you do get what you pay for. So go spend on real leather and it'll last forever.

I might look into a clip to hold a few cards (ID, Octopus, one CC) and a couple spare bills. Thanks to this thread! Don't want to spend more than $5 or so though
Seems like it'll be easier to lose than a wallet though  | |

Seems like it'll be easier to lose than a wallet though | This is a basically a cheap knockoff of a secrid but its honestly not bad for $5. Holds about 3-4 cards and maybe 2-3 bills. Aliexpress bundle deal so add two more items like cheap watch tools  | |

My main gripe with those wallets is the lack of a coin pocket. Other than that, I like the design and convenience factors.

Coin purses were a thing for a reason back in the 80s.
I still remember my dad having a wallet, a coin purse, and a key thing that I don't know the name for, but it's like a wallet but with little hooks inside for keys. I've whittled my keys down to just my car keys nowadays. At one point I had car keys, home keys, parents home keys, wife's parent's keys. That was too many sharp pointy things in one bundle.

I bought a Shiba coin wallet from Japan which I carry all the time now. But carrying two items kind of defeats the purpose of travelling lighter lol. Oh well.
