You could be forgiven for thinking that Xikar’s newest single-flame torch is just your run-of-the-mill lighter, but let me assure you, it’s anything but. The XK1 is one of the most ingenious lighter designs we’ve seen at the office, and its functionality and aesthetics will no doubt make it your new daily carry.
A single-action piezo ignition opens the trapdoor over the burner, which ensures no debris from your pocket will be trapped inside. Large air intakes reduce the chances of a misfire, and the flame is set at a slight angle to increase visibility and all but eliminate the chances of charring your wrappers. A huge fuel adjustment knob makes raising or lowering the flame a breeze, and the oversized fuel window will ensure you’re never surprised by an empty lighter. Nobody makes lighters like Xikar, and no one in the industry can match their lifetime warranty. Gran an XK1 today, and it’ll be the last lighter you ever need to buy.
