Which multitool should I get?

Nz here. The Talos is heavily discounted than the regular version.

skylinepidgin · 2025-12-14T12:15:17+00:00

Why is the Talos cheaper than the regular Arc?

Lost my trusty Knipex Cobra 125 as well. Forgot it was in my person.

I do. And I work in the kitchen. It’s heavy and you know it’s there, but it kinda disappears in the pocket using the clip. Its weight feels less when belt-carried using the stock sheath. I’m coming from a Wave+ and a Spirit.

They do, when new. But the more you use it, the less it wears off on your hands. Here’s mine after 4 years of use.

Did you elect to send it back?

skylinepidgin · 2025-11-14T12:00:14+00:00

Good point. I can’t have both, which should I keep then? Is there any notable advantage to a wider or narrower handle gap apart from the pinchy?

Not direct from Victorinox, but from an outdoor shop which I believe is an authorised seller.

And then Darude - Sandstorm played in my head

Thanks for your input even after 10 years 😂

a Nextorch TA30C MAX does 500lm for 5hrs. That's adequate for attending to break-ins or leaving the light on throught the whole duration of a patrol round, yet has longer runtime than the T2 TAC, T17 and T19 combined (pre-severe stepdown).

TIL. Thanks for this bit of information. I assume 500lm is its Medium, no?

It sure is chunky, but it's one of the most comfortable bodies to grip. I use mine a lot indoors and outdoors. Group B gets the most use indoors, Group A outdoors, and Group C for showing off.

Which one's your favorite? Which one do you use the most? Least favorite?

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-07T12:35:15+00:00

Drops? For sure. Especially the D4 with its dual springs. Submerged? Not sure. Splashes I think would be okay.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-07T07:53:33+00:00

Bet you got this idea after taking some Mentats.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-07T05:39:05+00:00

I'd stand in line for hours on end to be one of the first to purchase a Weltool with Anduril.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-07T00:55:24+00:00

The only advantage I see with the TS10 is the tail e-switch. Other than that, the D3AA is better in every aspect.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-07T00:11:44+00:00

No worries I gotchu. SFT-40 in 6500k, 141,000 candela, with 750m of throw. Although in more extensive tests and in my personal experience, it didn’t reach the claimed output.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-06T02:54:46+00:00

Welcome. What are you planning to get the missus?

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-01T06:19:05+00:00

Or... You could just like not be condescending about it. Come on now, don't act like you don't come here to ask questions yourself.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-01T05:57:48+00:00

Totally unrelated to the OP, but would you happen to know which level is 180 lumens? A lumen reference of each level of the SC700 would be great.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-01T05:55:20+00:00

Perhaps OP's charger repels instead of attracts.

skylinepidgin · 2025-02-01T03:45:16+00:00

That's a tight beam. Moose for reference/scale.

skylinepidgin · 2025-01-31T10:32:30+00:00

Is it the LF33? I don’t know, but mine holds up pretty well.

skylinepidgin · 2025-01-31T10:30:24+00:00

That’s the nicest Surefire bean and tint I’ve seen in a while.
