Moonglow firefly

#1

Post by DiKa »

From time to time I end up in a situation at work, when it's dark, and I can't find my keys. Since I love to have a small Spydie on my keys I thought it would be nice for it to cut and glow :D . I think it will be very usefull. Was anything like this brought up before?

I have a glow in the dark keychain tool that works really great. You wouldn't believe how many times you look for your keys in the dark.

A moonglow on a Dragonfly or a Manbug would be nice.

Moonglow Jester. The new sprint run Jester would be perfect.

Would a smaller moonglow knife actually function properly in these sorts of scenarios? I'm not sure about you guys but I always have my keys in my pocket when I go out. From my limited experience with moonglow knives I would think that they'd be completely dark when you need it since they don't get much exposure to light at the bottom of your pocket. Just my guess though.

Of course, all of these concerns are remedied if you simply carry your keychains on your belt loop or in a similar manner.

I've seen glow-in-the-dark keychain items as well. I believe DealExtreme sells them. They were vials of tritium though so they didn't need to be exposed to sunlight.

That is a better idea, sell them as a set and I bet they'll set out in no time! I'll definetly buy at least one set!

I'd be in for that trio as well. I like the way you think.

Not exactly what you're looking for, but this is always on me. I've lost count of the number of times it has come in handy.

I have been wanting to have more moonglow scales or circle imbedded in scales for a while. You can buy moonglow and krytoglow for one knife scale project for around $42-$45 with shipping. So not so cheap. More than carbon fiber and exotic stabilized woods. I still will do it soon though, maybe the elmax mule with moonglow?
