Go in and look around at what the B&M has. If it were me, I'd look for something that had a look that both of you would like, thus making it a true her-to-me gift. If you have multiple selections that you like, you can always take a pic with a cell phone and post it here for some opinions.
I have a burl Palio, but many like the carbon fiber much better (I also have one of those, but have never used it). I tend to go for function over looks for a lighter and so have the deal extreme that has already been mentioned here.
I have also used the Xikar in the past. For my uses, the Palio is superior, but you may find one better than the other based on your use. I have friend who uses the Xikar Xi MTX Multi-Tool, which I think has big bling value.
