I love when people just nerd out on stuff the love. Not for me, but that's fine! I do like Brass, still antimicrobial without as much patina or smell as copper.
I always like to carry a bit of steampunk. I think the colour is so warming. - Recently, I found a company in England that replaces Spyderco UKPK scales with brass or copper, just to add that real steampunk vibe! So now my pocket is full brass Spyderco UKPK, brass flashlight, and brass pen. I couldn't be more pleased! Also - Jon' background has always been a steampunk inspiration to me!😊
Amazing video yet again jon, thanks! Some really interesting pieces. That wallet is so simple and yet such a good design. The lantern is gorgeous, and that is the first fidget spinner that i have actually wanted. Now you need a victorian trenchcoat to store it all in!
I don't need any of these items, but I want them all after listening to your pitch. I dare say you missed your calling if you were not a salesperson on the highest order, well done!🙌
Someone once described to me a lamp that sailboat owners used to hang from the yard arm when moored off shore at night. I think it was probably a Petromax. They would swing the arm out over the water to reduce the risk of a fire onboard.
From the manufacturer's site, looks like that lantern has an attachment for the top that puts all the waste heat to work as a cooking burner...! I prefer the design of the Coleman military model though - it has a container in the base for cleaning kit and a spare mantle. The globe is made up of four separate sections so if the glass gets cracked it doesn't compromise the whole thing.
I have a similar idea on my list of videos to make for some time now... just in the acquisition stage for more cool items. Keep up the great work Jon, you're the best.
Pretty cool setup for a steampunk video...I especially liked the writing instruments that develop uniqueness as you use them! Although Jon, I was really curious to hear any opinion of yours on the roxon flex, since I thought that amongst many, you especially would have possibly liked it a lot... Sorry for the off topic haha, very enjoyable video as always
this is my first time here and as a photographer I love the video style and quality I enjoy the gears maybe I get the lamp in the future to come but I now a sub to your channel.
I love your channel and the quality content you provide. Regarding your butting lighter collection (and if you don't know it already) a top candidate is the Douglass Field L from Japan. They make an all brass version, I personally own the steel with brass accents version. Gorgeous design and my version weighs only 53 gr. I got mine recently from Urban EDC in the US but it's a classic design and should be available from various other sources.
Not really Steampunk style, but more traditional style. I’m a fan of brass, wood, leather and blued steel in me EDC. Traditional Buck knives, brass Zippo, leather belt, holster and knife sheath or pouch, including a nice hand made latigo leather pouch for a Buck 110 with Oak inlays.
Good selection. But It's a bit disappointing that you selected a German lamp rather than the British Tilley lamp which works on the same principle but is *a lot* simpler in terms of firing it up and maintaining it. 🤨 Edit: And on a Tilley lamp you can control the brightness to some extent.

To be fair Jon's backdrop has always given SteamPunk vibes
That lamp, a truly beautiful piece of engineering 😊

Brass is much harder to work with. The quality of the alloy is very variable now as well
@@dawnmoriarty9347 Yeah, I've seen some just call them all copper alloys because brass, bronze, whatever are all varying soooo much.
"I don't really care what it is. I just love it." 🤣 That was my first thought as well!! Those lighters are brilliant and next-level cool.
Thanks for all the content Mr Gadget 🙏🏾
I love my Kaweco Liliput fountain pens. I have a brass and a copper version
Love the patina they’re gaining.
Brass and leather is a lovely combo! Excited for this one!

Love this theme. Also liking Diesel Punk.
We use the Petromax HK as warm and warming camping lamp during cold weather days!
I love it
Enjoyed Jon's demonstration of throwing his head around . . .
Soundcore make awesome ear buds. That lantern is an absolute work of art!
I love the flashlight from o light! And the price🎉 wasn't bad either. Nice video John!

I like the idea of the open-air earbuds for summertime
Another good fountain pen option that fits the bill is Kaweco's Sport pen in brass. A little pricey, but it's very small when capped.
Abosolutely love the lamp and for what it is, the price is decent.
That lamp is amazing
Thank you a'lot! I started collecting steampunk edc some time ago, your video really gave me some ideas!
RovyVon Aurora A9 Pro (G4) EDC Copper Keychain Flashlight fits in Steampunk theme.
Keyboard from the Datamance range some even have British layouts.

Love that lamp...
Awesome lamp, thanks !!
I thought the Petromax would be more expensive!
A beautiful design

Will check it out 👍 thank you 🙏
Excellent, thank you!
I think the open steam pump scene is from an episode from Castle.
I paused the vid to see your watch while fueling the lantern.

That lamp is spectacular! Doesit makes the gas flow sound like colmen's gas lamp?
Waiting for Xmas themed one too
Cool video,love the knife,..
Hopefully you doing well. That lamp looks amazing!
Outstanding 👍
Good lord that lamp is beautiful. And not much more expensive than that freakin pen 😂
Fantastic!
Fun video! I'd throw in those Japanese lighters as well from that pipe company.
10:30 I think everyone should still have cash with them.
Always.
Welcome back Sir 🙏🫡❤️
What's the runtime of the Ketuo Victory? Lighter runtime is particularly important for cigar smokers since we tend to go through a lot of fuel.
Good question. I’ve not tested it to that extent. I’m sure the supplier will be able to answer that though.
Missed the chnace to have a cool bronze watch with roman numerals
Nice, again, but a bit surprised no Kewaco product ?
Jon, great video, but let's talk about what really interests me. Your pup. What's the name and breed? I have three Westies and love dogs beyond words.
Good selection. But It's a bit disappointing that you selected a German lamp rather than the British Tilley lamp which works on the same principle but is *a lot* simpler in terms of firing it up and maintaining it. 🤨 Edit: And on a Tilley lamp you can control the brightness to some extent.
The oclip is the best edc flashlight bar none
Very good job :) beautifull items ;) i’m in love with this pen but price is from hell :(
The fountain pen is on order, beautiful, thank you for the link Jon👍🏼🇦🇺🦘
Hi Jon, how can I get a product to you for review please?
Tasty!
❤❤❤
Yes the fidget spinner helps you concentrate on how much money you are out.
Can you make a video of edc with your spouse?😊🤞
👍
“…dress up is not really my thing.”
[internally]
‘But I ain’t taking the hat off either because, damn, it looks good on me…’
Let's gooooooo John woo 🙌

Great video Jon, can we see more of jamie in future videos
As much as I love the theme, copper and brass do not mix well with leather. The waxy green byproduct is a real nuisance.

14:05 - How is solid copper magnetic?

What a rip-off, the carabiner doesn't even move any gears when you open it.
Why does John remind me of the guy from AstroWorld
You guys don't know what I'm talking about he's the old ball of man always dancing around flapping with his humongous glasses
Dress up probably should be really your thing
Re 4'39" - you shouldn't be cycling with headphones on at all, no matter what the design. That's just suicidally stupid. (And sadly all too common...)
Uh, they are open-ear, so no different than driving a vehicle with a radio. Or do you rally against car stereos as well?

@@malthuswasright Again. Open. Ear. As in, they don’t block traffic and other sounds. How dense are you?
The spiner is the most useless thing I've ever seen. Who pays 170 dollars fot it?
