With a name like "Pork Killer", it's got to be good. Well, I don't know where it got that name but it was enough to make me want one. So I emailed Korea and had them send one over lickity split (only 500 made, ya know). I'm still amazed at the internet (of course, I'm amazed at Jet Airliners too).
Anyway, it comes in a plain brown wrapper with not much fanfare. The official name is L6 special Porcupine (but we all know it's a Pork Killer).
Opening the box reveals well a plain plastic wrapper.
The knurling is extremely aggressive. Feels like you're holding a small hand grenade only sharper. Weight is not really an issue because, hey, if you order one of these it ain't 'cause you're EDCin' it. The tailcap is standard SW02 issue. The head has the stainless steel impact device which is quite aggressive.
One of the things I was curious about was whether or not these had a killer 5 watter in them. Well, this is certainly the whitest L6 head I've experienced so far and it's quite bright. Whether it's brighter than my other L6 heads I'll have to put them in front of my light meter and see what happens. Here's a beam shot which appears tinted but it's really quite white to the naked eye. You can see what affect the strike bezel has on the corona.
Well, not much of a review but at least you all know they really do exist and there is a least one in country. I'm happy with it. It's just a really cool L6 and not something you would expect even as a special run from Surefire. Way to go Paul Kim! It's a fun concept and one I'm hoping Surefire continues in the future. :thumbsup:
