Amazing quality

I can’t compare it to the 1920s version as I don’t have one of those in my collection yet, but I can say that this one is very high quality. The case is very solid, no flex or give anywhere. The telescoping feature is what drew me to it (I smoke a pipe) and that part works great.

Overall I’m pretty impressed. I didn’t know what to expect, but I took a chance because I love that someone has the knowledge and passion for taking on one of the petrol lighter legacies.

You can tell they actually care. They are not just making cheap knock offs, if that’s what you’re thinking.

Take a chance. I think you’ll be impressed, too.

I ordered on 6th july, the lighters arrived on 1st august. The quality is great, the videos on the website are accurate. I don‘t like the China-bashing, it is not made in Switzerland, so what? Chinese companies can also make great products. Thank you and greetings from Germany👍

I call this my indoor lighter. If there is any wind or even a slight breeze it goes out. However in your home or garage it is elegant and super cool

The Thorens website gives the impression that this is a product from Switzerland, but these are products from China that have copied the old lighters. The quality is decent, and it works as it should. However, I think the price is somewhat high considering it’s not authentic.
