I have one of these lighters and am unable to find any information about it. I live in Australia and was given it as a gift about 20 years ago. I believe it may be some type of army issue lighter from World War II. The arrow symbol, I have been told, may be an Australian Army symbol.
Is this lighter of yours for sale, as I will gladly buy it from you if you wish to sell it.

Hi Brad,
Thanks for your note;
I am currently not planning to part with it and it stay in my collection, but in case I decide you’ll be the first to know :)
I hope to find out some info on the symbol and lighter maker so far.

No worries mate.I have contacted the Australian War Memorial research department and am awaiting a reply about whether it is an army issue.
May I ask how you acquired yours and are you in Australia?

I noticed you saw this lighter on the ABC Collectors site. Do you know anything about the other lighter I have posted on there?

Brad,
I am in Russia, and this lighter was obtained from a collector in the USA, who didn’t know anything about it either. I was searching anything on this lighter and all I got was that another lighter of yours on ABC site, so there I commented on it :)

Should know in a few days if it is a military lighter from Australia. Australian War Memorial Research have passed my request on to there expert.

Gday,
Sorry it took so long to get back to you. The information I received tells me this lighter is definately not an Aussie army issue. It is from the period of 1930 – mid 1950s. I have another lead to follow and will get back to you when I find out more.

Great Brad, thanks, waiting for any other information! :)

Hi Brad,I have recently come across the same lighter. My Grandfather recently passed away and I found it amongest his possesions. He was it the second world war and spent most of his Australian Service in PNG and has kept a lot of ex military stuff and my first guess is that this was a Military Lighter but I have noticed your research proves otherwise. I would love to hear any other info you may have on this.

Hi!
I have one of those lighters for sale, but it´s very rusty…Anyone interested? Or is it totaly useless?

Hi Ulrika,
I am afraid that such lighter would be valuable only in good to excellent condition. But can’t say anything more specific without seeing photos of it.
