Description: In this video, I fully restore an antique KW Carl Wieden lighter, made in Germany back in 1920. Can you believe it? This lighter is 105 years old! I bought it from an online auction for just $12, but it arrived in terrible condition: the original plating was almost completely worn off, the body was covered in heavy patina and corrosion, and part of the flint mechanism was missing.
