Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Recommend a Torch

I know the ones with the long, cylindrical, hand-held fuel bottle have been around for ages. Is that pretty much the only choice of a go-to, everyday, run-of-the-mill torch? Won't be soldering or welding.

You blowin glass now?

shuddup and go out in yer filthy dirty garage and get one dammitt, and be quick about it

Guy like you, that's made a $$$$$ should buy Snap-on !

Torches are easy.....just try finding a quality pitch fork.

Concoa.

Quality pitch fork will set you back close to a hundred dollars. Plus or minus.

Got a pitchfork in my shop that was my grandfathers. It’s at least as old as me.

You talking the little trigger style mini me torch?

He is probably looking for a creme brulee torch......

If you think pitchforks are expensive, just try to find a good, well trained, pitchfork operator !

I bought two pitchforks in the last year.

One 5 tine and one that must be about 10(?).

They are both pretty decent, can't remember the brand. Not cheap, around $50 apiece if I remember correctly.


Bought a nice aftermarket mini torch head as well.

I'm gonna go check and see what make/model.

not sure what size that is, but i'll be using it to loosen bolts, burn out old gaskets, etc. (and yes, possibly the odd saganaki or crème brûlée...LOL)

probably a little overkill

I like mine for annealing brass. No idea what brand it is. Bought it at the local hardware, guns, fishing poles, and reloading store.

It fits on Coleman fuel bottles as easily as the more expensive tall, skinny, blue bottles.

I've had a Victor torch for 30 years.

??? i'm not into that kind of thing

This is way better than the cheapo you buy with the bottle.

Or if you don't want a self lighter just get a decent old time version.

spose i'll shop around...hope home depot isn's shut down by the time i get around to it

thanks, those look pretty good
