i love them and have used them since i was 12,....

about 6 years ago, i found them in restoration hardware, they arent as nice as the old ones but the theory is the same,......and they make a great gift for anyone, no one wants to have cold hands

and you say you wouldnt want any on fire in your pocket, but its really not like an open flame,......they are fabulous
