Abstract: A lighter is provided comprising an ignitable material for igniting when heated defining a recess along a length thereof. The lighter further includes a striker material for effectuating sparks when struck defining a protrusion along a distance thereof. The protrusion is shaped to be slidingly engaged with the recess for selectively securing the striker material to the ignitable material. Additionally the lighter includes a combustible handle including lignocellulosic material or polymer material for igniting when heated, the handle defining a cavity that selectively receives the striker material and the ignitable material when engaged.
