A lighter is part of my EDC mainly due to me being a smoker. I wondered why you American guys all preferred BIC lighters rather than the most popular and well known lighters here in the UK called Clipper lighters. Seems it is because you do not have them in abundance over there.

They are refillable, can change the flint and they come in all sorts of colours and patterns. They fit snuggly inside a spent 12 guage shotgun shell (i lost my last one). And i have even seen 50 cal shells made into cases for these. Clipper themselves have now even released a metal case and metal body lighters the same shape.
