My super serious additions to the above ridiculous list:

I highly recommend the SureFire E2L Outdoorsmen. I’ve had mine for close to 8 years now, and while it has gotten banged up over time, it’s been incredibly reliable not only in the wilderness, but at the airport in my carry-on, numerous road trips and hotel stays, and it has a slightly crenellated strike bezel that…
