Abacus

While it seems useless on first sight, this small piece of equipment becomes very handy for the adventurer, when traveling to a city to buy and sell things. With this little piece of equipment, all the money of the adventurer and the party travelling with him/her, can be added up in no time, thus giving a quick overview over the finances. It is therefore a very useful item, and every adventurer should have one at hand every time. Without it, spending too much money it too easy.
