I bought 10 of the model like this one (but flame coming out of the top, not at an angle) last year, expecting them to be short lived, but they are surprisingly sturdy.

I've given most of mine away and several locals use theirs as their primary lighter as do I.

Those are the best lighters I've ever used. Sad when the expensive and fancy looking ones sit in a box while the $3.00 jobbies get all the action. Bottom line: they work when you push the button. That's hard to beat.
