The word "kuroi" means black in Japanese. What is special about this Kiribi Kabuto lighter is that it has been wrapped in a layer of black leather, giving this crafted lighter a very personalized and organic feeling in the hand. This also helps to protect and and shelter the lighter, giving more character to it over time as it softens.

Kabuto Kuroi Leather
The quality and workmanship are outstanding, and the two-year guarantee gives me some peace of mind. Easy to fill, set flame, but at first striker was stiff. You will not regret having picked one of these up. A Beauty!!!

Kabuto Kuroi lighter
This is sort of a left-handed lighter as the striking wheel is on the "far" side for a right-hander. With a little practice, I mastered this little gem. I particularly love the winged opener it's very convenient. The black leather and chrome are appealing to the eyes. Also, This little ditty holds a lot of gas.

Well made lighter and nice addition to collection
This is an excellent lighter and the leather cover with the embossed ‘K’ is a nice touch. It lights consistently and the wide flame adds to the ease of firing up your bowl. There are a few cons: one the lighter wheel is on the right side so the flame has to be turned around to light your pipe ( like it was made for a lefty) and a tamper in the bottom would have been a nice addition but aside from that it is a well constructed lighter and nice addition to your collection.
