There are several Old Boy copies to choose from as well, of varying levels of price, and success.  Among these are the Jifeng copy  of the Corona Old Boy Pewter Finish with Pipe Shapes, the Yibao with Chrome Lines, and the Yibao Leather Wrapped. The Savinelli IM Corona Old Boys are made in Japan, while these copies are manufactured in China by the same company; Wenzou Yibao [http://www.wzyibao.com/en/], who also manufacture other well known named brand lighters, such as Colibri. One Old Boy copy is actually not a copy at all, but more Old Boy inspired. It is made by Kiribi in Japan, and distributed by [http://laudisi.com/kiribi-lighters.cfm Laudisi].

Xikar offers three mid-range butane pipe lighters including the Resource [http://www.xikar.com/product_lighter_resource.asp] , the Pipeline [http://www.xikar.com/product_lighter_pipeline.asp] (an an Old-Boy knock off), and the Scribe [http://www.xikar.com/product_lighter_scribe.asp] , a Colibri "Clip" knock off.
Xikar offers a couple "soft flame" butane pipe lighters suitable for pipe use. This includes the Resource [https://xikar.com/collections/soft-flame-hybrid-lighters/products/xikar-resource-pipe-lighter?variant=40632405590067] and the Pipeline [https://xikar.com/products/xikar-pipeline-soft-flame-lighter?variant=40632405327923] (an an Old-Boy knock off).


An inexpensive but still refillable butane lighter is the IMCO. Not an elegant lighter, by any means, but a step up from a bic or generic cigarette type lighter and more importantly, one that is designed for use with pipes with an inclined flame.
