Katokichi Ichishiki LE back end?

bmstrong · Sep 27, 2005

Having only held a Katokichi Ichishiki LE once, I sold it because of the funky tail end / lanyard attachment.

How much force do you think it would take to pull that out? Any danger of snapping off / pulling out? Has anyone done tests / reviews?

I'm almost ineterested in picking one up again..

Hi Brian,

I vaguely recall a couple people actually wearing through the thin aluminum on Arc AAA lights' lanyard hole. Peter has increased the web thickness for the new ones. One modder actually was so anal as to incorporate a theoretically-replaceable stainless steel bushing in his lanyard ring holes. :green:
:wave: Katokichi-san! I am looking for an Ishishiki to add to my collection.

Gee Larry, I wonder who that was ? I was actually pretty impressed that you manged to press that thing in there, or was it more like swaging it in ?
