A safety device in a gas lighter to prevent release of gas fuel stored in the lighter when a safety button is in a locked position to thereby prevent ignition of the lighter, and to allow release of gas fuel when the safety button is moved from the locked position to an unlocked position. An indentation in the safety button coacts with an end portion of a housing of the lighter to releasably retain the safety button in the unlocked position when moved there by a user's finger. Projections provided on the underside of a gas-release button guide the safety button's movement between the locked and unlocked positions and releasably retain the safety button in the unlocked position. The safety button is moved from the unlocked to the locked position when the gas-release button is released after ignition of the lighter.
