You guys seen this one? A SAK with a lighter built in. From the website it looks like a cool torch lighter.
 
I've got two. They're a little bulky but really neat gadgets. Almost makes me wish I didn't quit smoking. There was a production problem with the Swissflame, but that seems to be resolved. The lighter is *reasonably* wind resistant, and mine have functioned flawlessly so far,but I haven't used them much in the past two months.
 
How much burn time can you expect from them? All my butane lighters eat fuel very quickly and I don't expect the Swiss Flame's gas reservoir is very large, so about how long can you expect it to last before it needs to be refueled?
 
Obviously depends how you use it. My rough "guesstimate" would be about 2 weeks for a pack a day smoker.It has a window so you can see how much butane you have left.
