In this video, I unbox and test the Gemfish IF1 gemstone torch developed by Justin from @blackopaldirect and compare it directly with the torch produced by Riley Gunn of @OpalAuctions53Frogs .
Both torches are designed for examining gemstones and opal, but how do they compare in brightness, beam quality, usability, and overall value?
I put them side-by-side to see where each torch excels and whether the Gemfish IF1 lives up to the expectations created by one of the largest opal-focused channels on YouTube.
If you're considering a gemstone inspection torch for opal cutting, mining, or lapidary work, this comparison may help you decide which option best suits your needs.
