Any other 8R fans ever forget to remove the key after lighting, only to be gently reminded by the red-hot metal when turning the flame off ? I believe I still have hex-nut shaped scars on my pointer and thumb.

Only twice (I'm not a quick learner) with my 123.

My 8R has a plastic knob and a longer shaft. No burns for me...
