I love the theme idea, just to savour some eccentricity and to slide away from reality for a moment is priceless. I do love the lamp, its expensive, but in the right setting it would be perfect. I love the theatre of steam punk and greatly appreciate the effort people put into getting the right look, so some of the gear you chose would make great gifts for the right person. Thanks Jon, much appreciated. 👋🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🇮🇪

I always like to carry a bit of steampunk. I think the colour is so warming. - Recently, I found a company in England that replaces Spyderco UKPK scales with brass or copper, just to add that real steampunk vibe! So now my pocket is full brass Spyderco UKPK, brass flashlight, and brass pen. I couldn't be more pleased! Also - Jon' background has always been a steampunk inspiration to me!😊

I love when people just nerd out on stuff the love. Not for me, but that's fine! I do like Brass, still antimicrobial without as much patina or smell as copper.

John one of my school teachers was a former marine engineer. He would get annoyed about confusing cogs with gears. He would say cogs are made of wood and go thunk thunk you tend to find them in watermills and wind mills. Gears are made of metal (or plastic) and they wirr.

Someone once described to me a lamp that sailboat owners used to hang from the yard arm when moored off shore at night. I think it was probably a Petromax. They would swing the arm out over the water to reduce the risk of a fire onboard.

From the manufacturer's site, looks like that lantern has an attachment for the top that puts all the waste heat to work as a cooking burner...! I prefer the design of the Coleman military model though - it has a container in the base for cleaning kit and a spare mantle. The globe is made up of four separate sections so if the glass gets cracked it doesn't compromise the whole thing.

I love your channel and the quality content you provide. Regarding your butting lighter collection (and if you don't know it already) a top candidate is the Douglass Field L from Japan. They make an all brass version, I personally own the steel with brass accents version. Gorgeous design and my version weighs only 53 gr. I got mine recently from Urban EDC in the US but it's a classic design and should be available from various other sources.

Good selection. But It's a bit disappointing that you selected a German lamp rather than the British Tilley lamp which works on the same principle but is *a lot* simpler in terms of firing it up and maintaining it. 🤨 Edit: And on a Tilley lamp you can control the brightness to some extent.

Don’t buy the lighter. Mine arrived the other day and the striking mechanism has already packed in. It relies on the striking wheel being driven by a ratchet mechanism and this is uselessly under engineered for the force needed to drive against the flint and the ratchet just slips over the striking wheel, so no spark. Pretty rubbish for a lighter priced over £100. Will be contacting the supplier and shall post an update here.

@@ichicolco Leaving your patronising tone aside, the design or the earphones is irrelevant. If you're filling your ears with music you are not going to be able to hear the car or truck that's about to hit you, or any audible cues that you are in trouble.
