The lighter is an integral part of your pipe experience. It is best to use matches or a butane non torch lighter for your smoke. Zippo makes a pipe specific lighter with a hole cut in the windscreen.

The three other major US non-butane lighter were the Nimrod Pipe Lighter, the Nimrod Commander, and the Beattie Jet Lighter.

Two Nimrod models were eventually manufactured. The Pipe Lighter model was unique in that it looked like a nut and bolt, and was lit by holding a thumb on the spark wheel, and pulling apart the lighter. A second model was the Commander (or Admiral), which resembled the current Zippo pipe lighter.
