I don't have any problems with buying flashlights, or knives, or rifles.. I'm single...
That Innova flashlight is about as good as gets, but I do have a bunch of others that are very good too. A good head light is a must too. They leave the hands free to work in the dark.
I'm on a knife buying kick right now. Thank God I don't have a house warden to scream about all the stuff I buy...
