Japanese Matte Black Butane Pipe Lighter, Refillable, Adjust Flame, Airline Friendly

Everything At A Glance

Every Kiribi is hand-assembled in Japan and inspired by history. The Kabuto, meaning helmet, represents the fukigaeshi winged battle helm, paying homage to the crescent-like wings on the side of the kabuto.

Designed for use with premium butane (not included), the Kiribi features a flip top lighter with a single cap fitted with a ribbed flint striker wheel. The flame is adjustable on the bottom, and the flints are replaceable, making your Kiribi last for years.

The soft flame butane lighter is built to last, featuring a durable polymer spring hinge, an angled flame design, a single tank with high butane capacity, and sturdy construction comprised of brass, steel, and nickel.

The origins of Kiribi lie in the traditional Japanese practice of casting sparks upon a beloved traveler’s back, to impart fortune and ward off evil, blessing them on their journey. This practice echoes the famous 8th century legend of Prince Yamatotakeru, and the aunt who gifted him the firestone and striker which saved his life during perilous travels.
