Blazer Optimus
I was searching for a new everyday lighter and ended up purchasing a Blazer Optimus. The Optimus is a single flame torch lighter with a guillotine cutter attached by a magnet. It's along the same lines as the Xikar Ultra but at less than half the price I figured it was worth a try.

I have used this combo for the last week and I'm very impressed. The fit,finish,performance,and ease of use have been beyond my expectations. The lighter has the great Blazer flame and the cutter is super sharp. I've cut a 54 ring cigar with ease plus it can be disassembled to remove the blade for replacement or sharpening.
I purchased it on Amazon.com for $32.49 with free shipping through my prime account. I have seen it elsewhere for around $35.

So far I'm very happy with it and hope it doesn't go belly-up anytime soon.

Lighter with magnet + motel room card key in same pocket = locked out of room. Locked out of room + need to pee + no restroom in lobby = quick trip out behind motel.
Sorry Duane I drifted there, like your review.

Yeah Brian, I found out the same thing happens when I put my key card in the same pocket as my cell phone! Who'd of thought that would happen?

Just my opinion but nothing beats the Xikar single flame. $29 and life time warranty. Zippo with a torch insert are a close second ( only because of durability and price)
