The match needs lit off the lighter nine times out of 10.
Amazing lighter, fantastic quality. The Only Fault here lies with the functionality of the match. It is great in theory, however, trying to light something that has what fluid on it is not ideal and does not work that great. I just use the match out at the bar when there's multiple people trying to light smokes and then I use the lighter portion and the match and light the match off the lighter and hand it out. The match is fantastic for lighting can't fires and for any survival situation. It is fantastic as far as quality and functionality and dependability goes. This has replaced my regular lighter as my number 100% use lighter. I've sent this link for this item to multiple friends of mine and all of them feel the same as I do about it. Keep up the great work guys you are making fantastic lighters.

Pleasantly Surprised...
This is a great lighter. At $18 I did not expect much out of it but it outperformed in every task. The biggest complaint I saw was the permanent match stick not lighting, I got mine to light on the very first strike and have been getting consistent lights for a day now. It is important to keep the stick at a 45 degree angle, strike down while applying some force. Also make sure you put some fuel in the wick compartment. It strikes easier if the stick flint is horizontal against the permanent flint strip. It is also worth noting how sturdy the body of the lighter is, does not bend in at all if pressure is applied. Packaging was also very nice for the price paid for the product. I am impressed and would love to review more of these lighters.

Lighter works reliably and its well made.
Nice little lift arm lighter. It takes a bit of time to fill as the cotton is packed pretty tightly. I am still working on getting the permanent match to strike reliably but I think my technique is lacking. I did have to scrape the black wax off of the ferro rod but its still hit or mis striking it. Overall I am pleased with the design as the lighter works well and the fuel seems to last. it is also a very good value and was delivered quickly.

It's great!
So, I've had this lighter for all of an hour, if that, but, based off of initial impressions, here's what I have to say; when I get lighters of this style and price, I expect a showpiece, something that looks nice, but when you hold it, it doesn't seem all that stout. This lighter is not just a showpiece, it's beautifully made, and, at this current point, it may do something I thought would never happen, it may replace my zippo, I'll carry them both for a while, as I advise anybody do when you change your EDC, but I think this may be better than my zippo. Yes, of course it works, and feels nice, but the details are impressive as well, there's a small face seal around the wick cap that minimizes loss, along with seals on every screw, including the one for the match, the extra flint holder, in my case, actually had a flint In it, I'm used to there not even being one in the striker. On the base plate/bottom there's a screw plug to nowhere, which I would assume is because they use baseplates in multiple models, that's understandable, but I found an eyeglass screw fits in nicely, probably two, but I only had one, I'll probably try to put a grain of rice in it for when people say they're hungry though 😂 Update; it's plated, steel I'd imagine, it's magnetic, and I've scratched it around the evermatch striker, as it's almost impossible not to slip off the Ferro rod, but that's a problem with all evermatches, at Least for me. plating is a bit disappointing, but it's still very well built. A version that's just brushed steel like a zippo would be nice, instead of the two cheesy designs of what I can only imagine is related to the occult.

Lighter yes match no
Lighter is of decent quality and has a old timey look. Lighter works good and striker sets it blazing easily, but the match part mmmm yeah don’t plan on it. Striking down the side just throws sparks can’t get it to light that way so pointless. Can light match if use lighter part but thats not how it’s supposed to ignite. A little disappointing in that aspect. Also size is a little smaller than expected thought it would be roughly same as a zippo but is not.

(6/16/26) working perfectly
Its working well Im thoroughly happy with it I use the lighter to get the infinity match to work, do not use the ferro rod on the side Additionally, I found that the match holder has holes, so you can fill fluid in the channel and it should absorb into the cotton, no need to open the bottom peice to re fill

It’s nice! Well made.
I really like this lighter. It is of a higher quality that I’ve seen in a while like that of those lighters made in the 40s. It is heavy brass with an impeccable finish. The permanent match works fairly well in my opinion with any piece of technology, you have to master it. I would say 60% of the time I get it to light on the first strike and then 80% the time I haven’t let up by the second strike if three strikes doesn’t work I’m doing it wrong and I have to readjust the way I am striking. I’ve noticed it helps to have the flat blade of the striker in the matchstick laid flat across the striker on the body of the lighter. I felt it necessary to leave a review because of all the negative comments about the permanent match. Also, I would like to mention that I love the fact that every orifice has an O-ring, including around the main wick closure: making it much more waterproof and less prone to evaporate all the fuel out of it, like my zippos tend to do even when I’m not using them. I would also like to point out that kerosene/zippo fluid doesn’t like to ignite with a spark when it’s very cold, but a lighter freshly out of your pocket and warmed by your body heat should light right up much better.

The striker on the outside just falls out.
Really cool lighter that works well. The only problem is the striker on the side just falls out when it wants. You will lose that striker in the first week, making the matchstick useless. The matchstick is one of the primary selling points of this, and is useless.

Le briquet est super dommage que l'allumette ne s'allume pas aussi facilement que le démontre dans la vidéo.

Match stick
It seems quite a few people are having trouble with the permanent match. Maybe I got lucky but I just adjusted the wick so it was showing more than when it was delivered, also make sure to add a small amount of fluid inside the match stick cylinder
