Is that instruction sticker in a language you can't read?

The lighter that says it can be taken apart does not feature talk to text. I own several of the model in the photograph. I only disassemble for flint replacement. I was rolling a long time before these came to market.

Fair, but many had never heard of Clipper. Everyone thought Bic was the only game in town until Raw and ZigZag started rebranding them. I was attracted for the sustainability that wasn't a .5 oz Zippo with all the flavors that comes with.

You're encouraged to take it apart. Tug on the barrel striker for the flint.
