GTT Mirages and Kobukis

**kbinkster** · 07-23-2010, 08:51 PM

Any interest? Let me know ASAP. Some people fell off my list (thanks for letting me know

) and I have some openings. They are expected to be finished here pretty quickly (the Mirages should be on their way to me Monday or so).

GTT Mirage: $1725 plus shipping
GTT Kobuki: $3300 plus shipping

If you're ready to step up, or think that you will be soon, grab these while they're available!!!

My Kobukis are ready to ship out and I still have some openings.

If anyone is ready for a Kobuki torch, let me know this weekend.

i only seen a couple pics of kobukis, do they only come in one configuration? looked like lynx, then phantom second fire, then something on top of that....

**kbinkster** · 08-07-2010, 11:28 AM

The Kobukis are all the same configuration: Lynx center - Phantom middle - outer ring slightly wider than a Delta Elite.

**hashmasta-kut** · 08-07-2010, 12:49 PM

(all black too, those look pretty rad imo).

GTT torches are an addiction, there is always another fix....errr....torch to get.

**hashmasta-kut** · 08-07-2010, 07:51 PM

Man! That Kobuki looks like the perfect torch! Perhaps its time to sell the Delta and upgrade....

Do you take trade-ins?

**kbinkster** · 08-09-2010, 12:29 PM

Here is a picture I took of the Kobuki when it first came out. I put the advertising together for GTT back in the day. This one is silver with a black manifold.

Kimberly, you have a PM. I call DIBBS on the Kobuki!
I'm prolly gonna be sleepin' in the garage from now on, but I'll get more work done that way. LOL

**metalbone** · 08-09-2010, 05:17 PM

that is one really really good looking torch...

**1UP** · 08-09-2010, 05:30 PM

How much hotter does this get compared to the delte?

From what I understand is the Kobuki is a Lynx inner, Phantom middle, and the outer ring is just slightly larger than the Delta. So really it's not much hotter it just has a few more variations of flame.

It's a little bit wider than the Delta, but you can still increase the density of the flame. One thing though, is that if you use the middle fire, but add oxygen from that outerring, you will have a hotter, more stable midrange flame than just a stand-alone Phantom (just like enhancing the centerfire by using the oxygen of your second fire on a two-stage torch), if you wanted to. You could also adjust the middle fire so that it mimics a Mirage. With that Phantom being the middlefire, you can push it through that outerring and give the flame more thrust than you could with a stand-alone Delta Elite. You would get a more penetrating flame and a more driving flame than a stand-alone Delta Elite. It's really a very versatile torch.
