Nitecore hides a razor blade inside a flashlight and calls it a multitool

Nitecore hides a razor blade inside a flashlight and calls it a multitool. That sentence alone should make you stop scrolling. The UTL19 is the first member of a new Utility Tool & Light series, and it's exactly what it sounds like: a slim, remote control-shaped torch that slides out a box-slicing blade when you need it. Five ounces of pocket power that says leave the folding knife at home. I love the audacity of this thing, it's not trying to replace your Leatherman, it's just asking if you really need both a light and a blade taking up space. Nitecore has been quietly filling out this flashlight family for three years, and now it's gone feral.
