Description

Whether you’re a collector with an eye for military history or an adventurer seeking a no-nonsense light source, this Original Swiss Army Pocket Signalling Lamp Torch is for you. Built to military specs and encased in a tough olive-green metal shell, this torch is more than a piece of gear – it’s a slice of Cold War-era ingenuity in the palm of your hand.

Running on a 3LR12 4.5V battery (not included), these torches are made to be simple, tough and field-repairable. While we haven’t tested each unit, their straightforward design means getting them and running should be no hassle. Available in two distinct versions, these pocket torches offer a convenient and historical way to add a little light to your life:

Type 1 models come equipped with red and green filters and a sliding switch that lets you move easily between off, momentary-on and constant-on modes. Need a quick flash of light? Just press the round button in momentary mode. Want to keep it on? Slide it to constant and you’re good to go.

Type 2 ups the stealth factor with an added dimming filter—ideal for sending low-signature signals or preserving your night vision. It swaps the slider for a simple rocker switch: press left for a quick flash, click right for steady light.

So, whether you’re trekking through the woods, setting up a Cold War reenactment or just want a talking piece for your shelf, this pocket torch is the real deal. Grab yours now and carry a genuine slice of Swiss Army history wherever you go.
