Gen 4 - Double Claw - Glossy (Bottom Fill) - Silver
This Gen 4 Double Claw lighter is a refillable fluid lighter featuring a solid brass body, a dual-claw ignition mechanism, and a glossy silver finish, designed for users who value mechanical reliability, visible engineering, and long-term everyday carry performance.
Built around THORENS’ signature mechanical language, this model emphasizes structural stability and controlled ignition rather than decorative excess. The exposed double claw system works in coordination with a precision flint wheel, creating a balanced ignition action that feels deliberate and consistent. Its polished silver surface highlights the underlying brass construction while maintaining a clean, modern appearance suited to daily use.
Key construction details:
– Refillable fluid system using lighter fluid (kerosene) with internal cotton wick
– Double claw ignition structure for improved stability and smoother ignition motion
– Solid brass body, carefully polished to achieve a glossy silver finish
– Bottom-fill fuel chamber designed to support efficient refilling and reduced evaporation
– Branded flint wheel engraved with the “THORENS” logo, visible upon lid opening
This lighter is ideal for:
– Users seeking a refillable fluid lighter with a stable mechanical ignition system
– Collectors who appreciate exposed mechanisms and traditional brass construction
– Everyday carry users who prefer durable, long-lasting mechanical lighters
It may not be ideal if:
– You prefer jet-flame or butane torch lighters
