I can see your point and agree somewhat but apply that same reasoning to pipes, cars and clothes.... we would all be smoking cobs, driving Yugos while wearing burlap onesies :rofl:I honestly don't get the expensive lighter thing. And it's not because I can't afford one. They're nice, sure. Very well made I have no doubt. But at the end of the day you need a device that provides a soft flame, preferably at 90° to the lighter. Well, you can get all that for less than $3
