Note :

The development of modern mechanical lighters began with the invention of lings from cerium iron by Carl Auer, Baron Welsbach, in 1903. A patent was granted in 1905. Auer knew that cerium produces sparks when machined with a file. It was therefore obvious that cerium should be used in the lighter and so to produce sparks by rubning with a file.
