I love the build of it. Its an amazing trinket, gadget. Others arohnd me have found it difficult but I think it’s fun and easy to use. In the wind its kinda non existent. Ive had to refuel it and try to see if it helps it have a stronger flame. But overall great and never switching. Its a part of me now. Definitely a conversation starter.

one of the coolest lighters I've bought
This lighter is truly outstanding, and well made. I've started to get some unique lighters so I had to get this one. It is seriously cool. It seemed a little odd to light to begin with, (probably because I'm a southpaw). But even my right hand can easily make it work, as I found out the second night. As pointed out , It is a right-handed lighter, but that is so minor that it doesn't hurt it's rating. Keep up the good work.

Beautiful Industrial Design and Flawless Function
I am incredibly impressed with the Swingtop Lighter in the Stainless Steel finish. Craighill has taken a mundane, everyday item and transformed it into a beautiful piece of functional, kinetic art that looks stunning on my desk.The single-motion mechanical action is smooth, reliable, and honestly addictive to use. I love that the spring-loaded swingarm keeps my fingers completely away from the flame while giving a satisfying click every single time. The brushed stainless steel looks sleek, resists fingerprints well, and gives the lighter a wonderful, substantial heft in the hand that feels incredibly premium.The metal body can warm up a bit if left lit for too long, but for lighting candles and incense, it is absolutely perfect. It is as much a high-quality mechanical tool as it is a lighter. If you appreciate great industrial design and timeless materials, the stainless steel version is worth every penny.
