Fenix Light E01 Nichia Keychain Flashlight 21hrs 10lumens

Not long ago Fenix came out with a new AAA flashlight the E01.
So what’s so big with it? It’s AAA, 10 Lumens, Only 15usd!!! And a regulated output for 11hrs (sun mode +10hrs moon mode)
7,1cm high, 1,4 in diameter, 14grams of weight, 5colours, I had to try one…no two! (a OD and a black one)
Have the OD one attached on my keychain since 2 months ago when I got it and I’m amazed by the quality of the anodizing, the good power (10lm are enough for daily use) and weight (not to mention I never recharged the battery ever since I put it in…)
For 10€ or 15usd as you like I can only suggest it, it has been talked a lot on Candelpwerforums, edc forums and so on that my review is short, only to introduce it to the readers.

This is currently my “user”edc I’ve been carrying for the past 2 weeks or so and it gives me the feeling I’m carrying something reliable and well built, that deserves to be carried by the army.
The alox handles give you a great feeling too, I can only suggest it

Victorinox Swiss Army Knife SAK Alpineer

The Alpineer is one of Victorinox big folders, it measures 111mm closet with a 80mm long stainless blade.
Unlike the small ones the 111mm have locking blades, the release button is on the side, the lock holds the blade with an internal pin, it is very strong for me.
This one is very basic, I wanted one to go with another SAK so I don’t need many tools, this one has:
Locking blade
Corkscrew
Tick and tweezers
Lanyard hole.
paid mine 15€
