Flame of Tongue Pro Blade

This blade is very durable, And I like how the etching interplays with the light!

The mouth and tongue of my serpent in this photo was made with this Flame of Tongue pro blade.

Thanks so much for the awesome feedback! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the durability and lighting effects of the Flame of Tongue Pro Blade. That serpent photo sounds incredible — love hearing how you're using the blade creatively. Keep up the amazing work!

Very nice

Any way to recreate flames is welcome, and the Flower Flames Blade is a good one. It's a little thicker than I thought it'd be, but it's a great addition to my light painting arsenal.

Thanks for the review! We're glad to hear the Flower Flames Blade has earned a spot in your light painting arsenal. It’s definitely a fun one for creating fiery effects. Let us know if you come up with any cool techniques using it — we’d love to see what you create!

I'm lovin' it.

It's a bit thicker than I thought it'd be, but that's alright. The test pictures came out great, so I've got some hot ideas on how to use the Primal Flames blade ( get it? ).

Great addition

It's a bit thicker than I thought it'd be, but I already have some great ideas for it. Test pictures came out great, so let the good times roll!

“Unpacking”…?

Any information about removing what appears to be protective paper?

Hi Alex, It's up to you whether or not you want to remove the protective paper from the Light Painting Blade - The paper will create a different lighting effect if left in place. The product pictures on the website show the Blades without the paper and most Light Painters opt to remove it before use.
