Designed for everyday carry, pocket use, and frequent daily ignition, offering a discreet and reliable fluid lighter experience.

Parts & Accessories
This Side Slide Lighter – Meteorite Crater Edition is a refillable fluid lighter featuring a solid brass body, right-side sliding ignition switch, and crater-inspired engraved surface, designed for users who appreciate mechanical precision, tactile operation, and vintage metal texture.
Drawing visual inspiration from meteorite impact patterns and lunar surface formations, this side slide lighter translates cosmic geometry into a functional everyday carry object. Radiating engraved lines and scattered circular depressions create a layered, three-dimensional surface that changes character with light and use. While not a scientific replica, the design emphasizes depth, material honesty, and the enduring appeal of mechanical lighters over disposable alternatives.
Key construction details:
– Refillable fluid system using lighter fluid (kerosene)
– Precision right-side sliding ignition switch for smooth one-handed operation
– Solid brass body with antiqued vintage finish
– Meteor crater simulation engraving with radiating lines and varied circular impressions
– Narrow, ergonomic profile designed for controlled grip and pocket carry
This lighter is ideal for:
– Users searching for a Thorens lighter with distinctive surface engraving
– Collectors of side slide lighters or vintage-style brass lighters
– Everyday carry users who prefer refillable, long-lasting fluid lighters with mechanical feel
It may not be ideal if:
– You prefer butane or jet-flame lighters
– You want a lighter that requires no refilling or routine care
Proper refilling and occasional wick maintenance help preserve ignition consistency and the engraved brass surface over time.

Had a few quality issues when it arrived, there were a few small holes on the bottom of the lighter along with another longer slit that my finger nail can fit in. Contacted them about it and although they said from the pictures its not a problem that effect the function of the lighter, from my testing it seems to allow fluid to evaporate out the bottom, was offered partial $10 refund or a gift card. I'll probably stick with someplace else in the future.

Great lighter. Beautiful finish. Functions perfectly. What can I say: Buy it!

Solid build quality, has a great feel to it, instructions were unclear

Beautiful lighter and shipping was very fast

It's hefty... far heavier than I'd expect from the size of the item. A full block of metal? But I like heavy stuff, gives a "good quality" impression.
The round thing seems purely cosmetic — it can be turned, but that's it.
This model comes complete and fully assembled. Saw a YouTube video of some models needing assembly, not the case here.
Purchased from the website, which categorizes it as a "tobacco" product. Do note certain credit cards (mine, at least) won't give it any points — doesn't even count toward the spending amount.
Sent via China Post. Maybe it's made in the factory owned by a Chinese company instead of Swiss, dunno.

Non c'è la possibilità di cambiare lo stoppino con il ricambio in dotazione, non si capisce a cosa serve la seconda camera e puzza di benzina.

Loved it. Upscale product for good price.

This is a cool lighter. It fits nicely in your hand and has some heft to it. It lights easy and is easy to fill. The bronze color is a cool rustic look. It is a great looking lighter.

Overall a very stylish, interesting, and fun lighter to carry. Consistently get compliments and asks re: where I purchased. Design is lacking in two places:
1. Almost zero capability in windy environments.
2. Not a leak-proof cap design - so if this thing ends up in your pocket at the wrong angle you may end up with a light whiff of "eau de lighter fluid" in your pants.
Do love the inclusion of a spare flint wheel and the design is stellar.

Ich bin begeistert von der Verarbeitung und der Qualität.

It's a truly incredible lighter, aesthetically beautiful, very solid, compact, and heavy, but in the best sense of the word. The materials and construction are truly masterful, crafted with great skill. I've never purchased a lighter like this before, and I'm very pleased with it.
Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear that the craftsmanship, weight, and design all left a strong impression. Each THORENS lighter is built with solid materials and precise attention to detail, and it’s wonderful to know this one truly stood out for you.

Das Feuerzeug ist sehr hochwertig und vor allem der Klappmechanismus der Kappe fühlt sich gut an. Flint und Docht sind bereits eingebaut, extra Docht und einige extra Flint sind auch dabei, die Lieferung hat bei mir aber leider mehrere Wochen gedauert.
Trotzdem bin ich sehr zufrieden mit meinem Kauf und kann das Feuerzeug weiterempfehlen.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re delighted that you’re pleased with the lighter’s quality and mechanism — every THORENS piece is made with meticulous Swiss craftsmanship.
We truly appreciate your patience regarding the delivery time and are continuously working to improve logistics for a smoother experience.
Enjoy your lighter, and thank you for recommending THORENS!

I have just started collecting lighters although I do not smoke but I just like the look, engineering and craftsmanship of them. Interestingly I find them a lot smaller than you see them on the website being lit. I find the service very good although it does take quite some time for delivery but realise they are being sent from China. All in all I am well pleased with them . . . . 👍

Hi
I'm very satisfied with the lighter

Please check before product shipment
Thank you

It is hypnotizing to look at the pattern, and the mechanism is perfect. When closed you cannot see the seam between body and lid. These lighters are addicting.

Mein rotes THORENS Feuerzeug ist endlich angekommen. Bin einfach begeistert. Es liegt sehr gut in der Hand, es ist nicht zu leicht. Es ist das schönste Feuerzeug das ich habe. Jede Zündung klappt einwandfrei. Nicht alle Marken bekommen das hin. Von mir gibt es eine klare Empfehlung zu einem Kauf 🤩 Etwas Geduld sollte man mitbringen wegen der Lieferzeit. 5 Feuersteine und ein roter Docht lagen bei. Das rote Feuerzeug ist absolut edel und es ist ein Eyecatcher. Bin rundum happy 😍

The craftsmanship is excellent. Works flawlessly, feels very nice in the hand. I highly recommend this lighter.
