5. Consider any one of several Old Boy knock-offs for $20.
Top post refresher:
"Attention new pipe smokers! All pipe and tobacco questions answered. All pipe and tobacco problems solved.
Terms of Service: to ask you have to have a serious question; to reply you must have a minimum two years pipe smoking experience. (No snob zone.) There are no stupid questions. Nobody can beat someone with a "Use the search funtion" lead pipe. There will be no rude replies no matter how many times your question has been asked - nosir, not in THIS thread. Maybe a little tiny bit of sarcasm though, just to keep it interesting.
Bring it on."

The best advice you’re going to get, period!
FYI… Bought an Ol’ Boy knockoff in 2003 (did work for İrap), put up with that POS lighter until last year when I finally broke down and got an IM Corona Old Boy, with nearly a year of trouble free use and free repairs for the life of the lighter from the shop it came from, I can’t imagine buying any other brand of butane pipe lighter.
