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:
