New, Expensive and Rare KI-S ONLY ONE FS

This is a sale for ARC mania. I'm posting it for him until his new computer is completely running.

One of the new, handcrafted, VERY RARE, and unique color Japanese custom lights is for sale. It is the blue & black hard anodized KI-Splash light.

The light is another, as one Chinese-light dealer at CPF loves to call it, one of those "magnificently priced" lights. It sure is. The new KI lights are undervalued for what they sell used for. Light connoisseurs will understand this light. Others need not apply.

If you can afford the Rolex watch, the Ferrari and the Lear Jet then this new, expensive and rare light is for you. The light would look grand on the fireplace mantle of your mansion.

This is a new, never seen before variation of the popular Katokichi Ichishiki, KI with a rare splash-color hard anodize. The unusual variation is known as the KI-S. It is very, VERY, rare.

Only 33% of the original KI-S lights remain. The others didn't survive the manufacturing; it was the KI-S of death for most of the lights. They were destroyed. Let's just say Katokichi has very high standards. Because of the major loss, most of surviving KI-S lights were pre-sold in Japan. We managed to pull some out of Japan for people that can enjoy the luxury of the rare lights. Possibly, the remaining lights will be auctioned at Ebay.

The lights are the US. The KI-S light for sale is located in California and only days away from your home.

The light is blue and black hard anodize. Splash colors lights will never be done again. Each KI-S two-tone hard anodizing is unique. The light has random, fluid, swirls of blue. No two are the same. The light engine is a MJDESIGN12 with a premium Luxeon IIII TWOH emitter. A mineral glass window is used. The light runs on a CR2 battery.

It is a bright, useable, light. And it is a light you can proudly display.

The rarity of the light costs dearly to recoup some of the manufacturing cost. The light comes with a new holster and one CR2 battery. Price: $370. The light will sent USPS Priority shipping with insurance and tracking.


The light would look nice on dangling from the mirror of your red Ferrari. The light is not for the meek and mild but for someone that appreciates a rare and unique light.

In case you've been sleeping for a 2 years here is a google search on older KI lights.

Post interest in this thread and send me a PM. I reserve the right to withdraw the offer at any time. There is one member seriously interested in buying the light.

For sure one is sold and one is pending. They would like to be in the background unless they post here.

Ah, I see the gathering of the usual suspects, or rather my known compatriots. I WISH I could have claimed this one, alas not me. Certainly not. Not for lack of wanting or wishing. But no. Some lucky individual, Mr. Quick on the Draw.

You'd want something so small, when you've got 10 inches to play with !

Micro mania,

Give it up. As a newbie, you must go to the back of the (loooong) line. You might try ebay, but expect to pay full retail.

Stick around, you might learn a thing or two. You will make friends.

I do sense you have great potential. You should try modding "modifying" flashlights. Success is not guaranteed, only an appreciation for the work of the great ones.
