      Im betting that end will screw off?? Kind of reminds Me of a little Antique Bullet sewing kit.

      Put a hair dryer to the seam to heat it up rather than a flame or throw it in a hot pot hot water...or spray it with wd 40...lol but no flames....boom...

      Dizzy may well be right, but it also resembles WWI trench lighters. Those, I believe, were usually a snug fit instead of screw off.

      I'm not all that familiar with trench lighters. I never tried to smoke a "trench".
