Gad Scott Tal's Wood and Leather Flashlight

By Rain Noe - November 30, 2012

A tactical flashlight it ain't. Designer Gad Scott Tal's Flashlight No. 01 is made from reclaimed wood, burnished with beeswax, and finished with leather and brass details.

Originally commissioned for a benefit auction by the Bay Area's Headlands Center for the Arts, the No. 01 will be put into production by Tauro, Tal's high-end leather goods company.

"Initially, it might be enjoyed as a curio," says Tal, "but its practicality would likely be realized during the next rolling blackouts."

Just kidding. Is this a spoof? Am I reading a link to Onion? There is nothing interesting or noteworthy about this turd.
