Vintage Trench Kerosene Copper Lighter

I missed the little parentheses part at the end of the full title of product. So that’s on me. I’m not a smoker and never buy lighters so I wasn’t aware that a lighter would ever come without the fluid in it. Upon a quick google search I don’t think Amazon can ship any lighters with fluid in them. It’s a hazard. Makes sense. So because I missed all that information, I was trying to light it and thought it didn’t work. Upon further investigation I realized I had to order fluid separately. So I opened bottom and poured some in and now it works perfectly! It’s really cute and handy and actually lights super well and stays lit. I’m not sure how I’m going to figure out how to put new wick in when that part runs out. And I’ve seen reviews talking about the flint and I won’t know how to do that either. lol. I’m using this to light candles and I’m used to matches. So I have zero idea what I’m doing with all this. This may be common knowledge. But I think it would be handy/helpful for the seller to make one of those little instructional videos that gets included in the listing. Make it more obvious that you have to add fluid. And show how to put in the new stuff that runs out. It’s nice that they send you replacements for that extra stuff. I just don’t know what to do with it. So, if you’re a dumb dumb like me who knows nothing about lighters, please know there is a bit of a learning curve here. But once you get it working, it works great!

Husband loves it. Uses it everyday

Great lighter to light my pipes. The flame is perfect and it works like a trench lighter should. The flame is the perfect size to light your pipe.

This is a great lighter. I bought it for a wedding I knew a bunch of people would be smoking at. Once people saw it they wanted to try it out so it definitely was a conversation starter. It comes with extra parts, an extra wick, flints and a small tool to unscrew it for filling and changing out parts. I also came with a small tote bag and a little ziplock pouch. I only kept the bag as the pouch was too big to go comfortably in a pocket. You do need to buy your own lighter fluid which is very common when buying lighters like this. The lighter doesn't seem to screw together like it's supposed to which is probably some kind of defect but really it's not necessary. That's my only critique on this lighter and even with that it's still a lot of fun to use in with people and everyone wants to try it. I highly recommend it.

THIS IS THE ONE YOU WANT. This one was the best price on Amazon and it came in a small case with replacement flint, wick and a small tool.

Pretty cool lighter!

This lighter is pretty neat. I bought it based on the fact it looked "stealthy", but also had function. This lighter did NOT disappoint and works flawlessly. It feels slightly flimsy, but as long as you are not tossing it around the house or trying to pry it open it will be fine.Side note, even though it felt slightly flimsy, it was perfectly stable and functioned without any issues, so don't let that scare you away. It's a great price for what it is. Flints, wick and cotton are all replaceable, so you will get a long service life out of it if you don't abuse it.

I do not need a lighter. I don't! I bought this because I thought it looked neat. Truth is since I've had it I kind of use it as something like a fidget spinner. I'll have it in my pocket and click out open and closed I'm my pocket when my anxiety levels rise. Not sure it helps but I do it. Bonus if I want to burn something Viola fire!!
