Whatever you do, please DO NOT post a picture of a similar set of shelves with amazing torches... especially if any have wood accents that are walnut, maple or zebrano
I was recently looking for a replacement for my venerable Vertigo Serpent (an angled black table torch) when it started to fail a month or two ago—I wanted to match a black-and-cherry wood … fetish, I guess? … that I have with my collection, and searched a bit for models that would match. (I also looked a little more broadly for leather and brass that could work in a pinch.)
For what it’s worth, here’s a snapshot of the iPad photo album where I kept track of what I found. I don’t have links or other identifying data on all of these torches, but could probably hunt down a few if someone wants that info. (I wound up with the thin
Honest Promise model shown in the second and third pictures; it’s actually a metal body, as I imagine most of these are, but looks nice enough; very thin and sleek, but a bit light on fuel capacity.)
You can see a picture of the Honest Promise, the ailing Vertigo Serpent, and my OG/Max-produced Lotus, with long black metal pipe and saucer disk, in
this post in the Manual Vape thread.
