Our Take
→Royal Oak is recalling its Flame Saber lighters due to a defective ignition mechanism that can cause unintended ignition, creating burn hazard risks. The recall affects lighters sold between 2022 and 2024 across major retailers. This marks the company's third consumer safety recall in five years, suggesting either persistent quality control gaps in manufacturing or a pattern of late-stage design issues that escape initial testing protocols.

Hazard

Remedy
Consumers should stop using the recalled lighters immediately and contact Royal Oak for a full refund. Consumers will be given instructions on how to destroy the device and submit proof of destruction to receive a refund.
