Today I have a special light.  This is another “new to the flashlight market but skilled in other stuff” flashlight.  And it’s unusual.  Titanium and copper mix, and it’s a reflector light.  It’s not a run-of-the-mill triple, as so many customs* are these days.  I’m excited to have this one in my hands, and I hope if nothing else, the glut of photos I’ve included here tell you the story of this light!

Preface Someone new has jumped onto the scene in flashlights!  The guys at Custom Knife Factory (CKF, from here on out) – unsurprisingly more known…

There’s a brand new flashlight maker on the scene.  Mechforce has been making all sorts of things: firearm accessories and parts, spinners, and tools, and has this new entry to the flashlight world.  It’s the Mechtorch EDC Flashlight.  I’m super excited to have one of these and pleased to submit this review.  Read on for photos and thoughts!

This is a review I’ve been putting off for months now (literally – I received this light way back in July). This is a new light by Amutorch, sold by BangGood, using 18650s and emitting with Cree XP-G3’s.

Read on for more! This is a review you’ll probably enjoy!

I was lucky enough a while back to get in on a Sinner drop directly from Sinner himself.  So this light came to me directly from United Arab Emirates.  I was excited to snag it, but you don’t have to get these that way.  There is at least one site that drops these lights on occasion.  This is my review of the Sinner 18350 Ready-Made Titanium Flashlight.

I knew when I reviewed the Klarus Mi1C aspheric that I wanted to review these ‘nicer metal’ versions with the reflector.  FastTech send this titanium version, and I’m pleased to put it through the paces!

What I have today is another Lumintop, in a long line of Lumintop reviews.  This is one I’ve been excited about, because it’s Nichia and brass.  Unfortunately, Lumintop didn’t want to send brass or titanium, but I’m not going to hold that against them. 🙂  Here’s the Lumintop IYP365 in aluminum, with a Nichia emitter. 

The last of a bunch of items I received from CountyComm.com is this little Boker knife.  I wasn’t expecting them to send this, but I’m pleased they did!  I haven’t reviewed a knife in a while so unlike the knife I’m a bit rusty.  And I’ll try to make that the last #dadjoke….

After my recent Maratac PCL Brass review, I realized CountyComm had a bunch more items that would be good for review.  I reached out to them, and this is the first of a few things they sent.  This is the Maratac AA Titanium flashlight, 2018 rev 2.  

In truth I’m probably the last flashlight person on Earth without a Lumintop Tool AAA.  But there are some variations I’ve gained interest in, and they’re also a an inexpensive way to get Nichia 219b emitters.  GearBest was kind enough to send three out for review.  After getting those three I liked them enough to purchase the Brass version for myself!
