    Cerakoted Malkoff pic's?

    Take a look here. Go directly to posts 4, 9, & 45. The Olive Drab Green (NIC color H-236) in #45 is my favorite. I also really like NIC's Satin Mag (H-147) and Graphite Black (H-146) as candidates for Malkoff MD series bodies. The design work by Jeff Forbush as seen on his "gallery" page is...

    Post your home-made lanyard photos! (Part 2)

    Hello Stormdrane, I'm going to move from a three pin knitting spool to a four pin so I can knit a two-color lanyard like the one you made. I can't quite tell for certain, but it looks like you alternated the two colors between the four pins (i.e., color x = pins 1 & 3, color y = 2 & 4), is...

    Post your home-made lanyard photos! (Part 2)

    Very nice AS! You plaited the square sinnet portion beautifully! I'm even more impressed with how you were able to draw the lanyard knots up close to the sinnet and the bead. You're ready for a double lanyard knot! ;) -JC

    Post your home-made lanyard photos! (Part 2)

    Hi B, I agree with the others, that is some very nice braid-work. I like the bead as well, curiously what's the material? -John Hi J, Actually, what B made for his Mac is considered a fob rather than a lanyard. You are correct that a lanyard is designed to prevent dropping and losing items...

    Will the Oveready Zero-Rez mod will work in a Solarforce S7 tailcap?

    The Official Malkoff Junkie thread - Part 2

    Norm, If it is a neutral for certain, it'll be either a T5 flux at 4500K CCT, or more likely a T6 flux at 5000K. For some reason :whistle: I can assure you that you'll love either tint for the HD, but any lower than 4500K is IMHO, not a good choice for a throw-based light. But the WC v3...

    The Official Malkoff Junkie thread - Part 2

    Received the M61NSHO as well and I concur, the tint is the same and fantastic! Thanks to Gene and the Oveready team for making these available. Imagine if this joint cooperation resulted in a Wildcat v4N and a HoundDog XP-G2NSHO! :whistle:

    The Official Malkoff Junkie thread - Part 2

    Thank you for your reply GB! Based on both the date of purchase and relative tint, it does suggest the 3700K version. If the M61N turns out to be close to the M61W (second run version) that I described last week as my favorite, I'll be very pleased. I'll know later today or tomorrow and will...

    Is It Difficult to Center an Emitter?

    For the custom-builder of either primarily drop-ins or complete lights, who by nature are likely very particular about every element of the build, eventually the refinement of emitter placement techniques, the addition of alignment augmentation devices, and good old repetition, steady hands, and...

    Why are Malkoff dropins more expensive than others dropins?

    There's one factor that is, rather who is rarely if ever mentioned in regard to the success of Malkoff Devices, without whom the company may have never been created, and who most definitely keeps the company running like a well-oiled machine... here's to you Cathy Malkoff. Your hand-written...

    Is It Difficult to Center an Emitter?

    I agree Nick, there does seem to be an obsession going on up there. I believe there are factors that may not be considered when an emitter "looks" to be off-center. I'll preface that I'm basing this on both investigating my own production lights and from assembling my own P60 drop-ins. The...
