Disclosed is a gas lighter easy to use, capable of stably maintaining a diffusion flame allowing a visual confirmation of the combustion condition and criticality, irrespective of use in the place influenced by the wind or the like. Further provided is a gas lighter capable of externally performing a fuel gas flow control with ease to maintain a combustion balance between a premix flame and a diffusion flame. The fuel gas stored within the fuel tank is distributed for ejection to form a premix flame and a diffusion flame burning together with the premix flame. A flame hole for premix flame is juxtaposed with a nozzle hole for fuel gas to generate the diffusion flame. An externally operable fuel gas flow control mechanism is provided in a fuel gas flow passage for producing the diffusion flame. A combustion flame of the gas mixture is produced downstream of a catalytic member. A catalytic reaction due to the catalytic member is effectively utilized from the initiation of ignition to produce a diffusion flame having a clearer combustion criticality. |
