soft flame lighter recommendations?
Thinking of getting a soft flame butane lighter and don't really know of that many. I'd like to find something that looks classy and isn't uber-expensive. Any suggestions?
EDIT: If it helps, I like the look of the DuPont and Dunhill flint lighters, but I'm not opposed to other styles. |

I have Dupont, Atoll, Vector and IM Corona soft flames. All work very well. The Atoll and Vector have wide "cigar" flames.

I really like the Vector Emperor triple soft-flame ligher.
Holds a good amount of butane and the wide flame makes it easy to light large gauge cigars. Vector Emperor

I have a Porsche Design soft flame that I really like. I haven't had any problems with it and really like the way it works.

Bic here too! I've used them for a long time, and never had adverse effects. Plus at five bucks for a five pack, you'll have one every where you need a lighter and some places you dont!
I also have a Colibri soft flame that was a gift. I've had it since Memorial Day '06 and have been very pleased with it. |

I second 56tweeds recomendation of the Porsche PD1 Electro-Quartz lighter. It has a soft flame, is really cool looking, is small, and not too expensive.
