I was looking on Amazon (had a gift card) for a Fauxpont, but then I saw the Mr Brog Old Boy copy for cheaper, $25 shipped. I've been using it non-stop for over two weeks and have had no issues. No leaks, and it works great. The build and performance is far superior to my 4th Generation (Xikar) and comparable to my Kiribi. It seems quite a bit sturdier than the Kiribi, especially the nozzle/valve stem. For 25 bones, I give it a big thumbs up! But I still want a Fauxpont....

Nice find man. If it’s still working for you in a year than I may just buy one for myself but I have no luck with these style lighters. Does it have some good weight to it? I like a heavy lighter... feels solid.

Yeah, it's got some heft for sure. It would hurt if somebody threw it at you.

LANE 1Q FROM MY DOOFUS WAND AS I CAST SPELLS AND READ OF ALLEISTER CROWLEY'S SEXUAL ESCAPADES
No no, crossing the streams!

Tolkien-wizard pipers use the doofus wands and smoke aros, Crowley occultist-pipers smoke stupidly short "nosewarmers," particularly of the devil anse shape, while trying to get high off of perique and getting angry at theists on the internet.

Well, if the option is to be a satanist: I'll embrace my wand and my aros. As for the 'doofus': well, the wise will always look silly to the obtuse.
