Foursevens Preon P1 mkIII
Not a lot of wow factor, but you’ll find yourself quickly using this light more than you ever expected.
I had an older Preon (P2) for years, and it was one of those lights that I never really loved, never really hated, but always found useful. I snagged the current Preon P1 mkIII in HAIII Black to check out with the goal of trying to find something which walks a fine line: small, tail switch, and nice to carry. That’s not as easy to find as you might think, but this light might have perfected it.

This is why the Small Sebenza is the best pocket knife, and might as well be the perfect pocket knife, about ten years into my ownership.
