My favorite cigar lighter
By Bsteelman.
This is my third Maxijet so needless to say it’s a great lighter for a daily cigar smoker. The flame is just right for properly igniting cigars and the shape is just right in the hand. My first two are painted and this one with the chrome finish is stunning. Top quality.
