This type of lighter is quite rare where you can see it, because it specializes only in the lighting of pipes, and few use pipes, even rare gentlemen. And the very principle of igniting tobacco in the pipe is fundamentally different from the simple use of lighters, because the lighter body itself is horizontal, and the flame, respectively, vertically, is the hallmark of these lighters.
Another reason for using such lighters is that many pipes are made of expensive wood, and a simple lighter burns the edges of the pipe, which is not very nice when your pipe costs a lot of money. It is for this reason that they came up with a specialized lighter, but the steampunk masters went much further and turn these products into a work of art)
