HY696 Mechanical Wick Lighter – Antique Silver & Bronze

HY696 Mechanical Wick Lighter – Distinctive Side-Link Design

The HY696 mechanical wick lighter has an unusual perforated ignition head and long side linkage, creating a vintage-inspired look that differs from a conventional hinged flip-top lighter. This model is offered in Antique Silver or Antique Bronze, with a separate real product photograph for each finish.

A Mechanical Flint-Wheel and Wick Flame

The supplier’s own photographs show a top-mounted flint-wheel assembly, a visible wick flame when lit, and a linked side lever running along the case. The metal body has a brushed, aged-style finish. It uses refillable liquid lighter fuel with a wick and flint, not an electronic or USB ignition system. The precise metal grade and a measured wind-resistance rating have not been independently verified.

Choose Your Finish

Antique Silver has a weathered grey-silver surface with gold-tone hardware details. Antique Bronze has a warmer, aged gold-brown finish. Each option uses the same HY696 mechanism and is matched to its own photo in the selector.

One Complete Lighter, Shipped Empty

This listing is for one HY696 lighter in the selected finish, without lighter fluid inside or a separate fuel bottle. The supplier also sells a package bundled with 133 ml of fluid and spare flint or wick accessories; that package is not offered for international shipping. A retail box and extra parts are not promised as included unless specifically shown and confirmed for your chosen option.

Refill only with suitable wick-lighter fuel following the lighter instructions, away from heat or flame. Keep the device away from children, and make sure the flame is extinguished before storing it. Metal may remain hot after use.
