    Default Lighter-Made in USA???

    As often as I can, I try to buy made in US products (exceptions-vehicles, firearms, ammo, and of course, cigars). Even when I can't, I steer away from "Made in China" whenever I can (before anyone is offended, it's purely an economic decision, as I have no problem with the people).

    Point is, I'm trying to find a US (if not US, then Euro) made torch lighter. So far the only US-made lighter I've found at all is Zippo. I was hoping Colibri was made in UK, but it seems that they are made in China. I'll get a Colibri if there isn't another option, but if anyone has any suggestions, they would be appreciated.

    I'm not big on doing reviews, tobacco doesn't taste like "cocoa" or "nutty" or "mocha" to me, it tastes like freakin' TOBACCO. I know what I like and I really don't care what other people think of other cigars. I've never read a review and said to myself "Wow, that sounds like a cigar I'd like to try!"

    Porsche, Lotus, Bugatti. Made in Switzerland. There's nothing fancy about these lighters, but the quality is exceptional. The lotus 12 is a great torch for about $50. Also the few I've had to send in for repair have a turn around time of less than 7 days.

    xikar.com sells lighters. Wouldn't they be made in the states?

    Default Thanks!

    I appreciate the input, folks...I'm looking into all the suggestions. Kinda tired of trying to light cigars with matches.
