Customer Reviews

Almost...
The Zippo is great overall, the finish, the technology, the flame, the classic sense... however, the fuel evaporates rather quickly since the fuel cell is not air tight, unless you use lighters all day every day and are refilling and using this Zippo a lot, this is not the lighter for you. Sitting in "storage" for more than a couple weeks will dry out the filter and you'll be up a creek.

It's not broke -- don't fix it.
This lighter is the time-tested fluid lighter that has been used for the last half century.
It works great, is durable and windproof (except in a full gale). As soon as I filled it with lighter fluid I was set.
I also placed a couple of extra flints inside the lighter (under the bottom felt pad) for replacement of the flint.
I prefer this over the butane lighters because lighter fluid stores easily, refills are quick and easy and the lighter works for quite a time before needing another fill.

Survival Gear
I do not smoke. Zippo lighters Can be useful for other reasons. This polished chrome model can be used to start a fire obviously.Not so obvious is the fact you can start a fire even if you are out of fluid (see youtube video). It can also be used as a signaling device reflecting the sun light toward passing aircraft, cars, hikers etc. It is not my first choice for making a fire or signaling but a light backup piece of equipment.
