Something about this revision looks much better. Can't put my finger on it, but it's an improvement. Let's say step 2 in this direction would hit the right spot.
Can they change the pineapple knurling for something else?
Edit, I put the final production design next to the new design to see the changes better, I notice that the space under the switch has been changed, wish they change the pineaple knurling to this.
I’m OK with the body. The head though… your green mockup looks sooooo much cleaner than the black sample. I can understand a desire to maximize surface area and thermal mass. The tapered head though… it just looks much more refined.
Also, please keep the slight crenelation on the bezel ring. I see it as a safety feature.
The knurling seems a mix of Throfire and Thrunite.
I’m not sure I’ll be in, yet, but at least try to give them a word about aligning the “striking bezel” with the button. That seems a bit off for me and actually non pleasant :zipper_mouth_face:
About the shape, your design is much better than this one, but the overall shape of the “final” version isn’t completely awkward…
