Love Zippo. I own and carry Zippos from late 1936 to late 2016. All my 36' through 41' zippos work with the original inserts too. They just don't make um like that anymore. Not that the new ones are poor quality. Even all the ones I have from the 40's, 50's and 60's just feel different and sound different. You just have to hold and use one of the originals. There a piece of art. Thanks for the video. You can't go wrong EDCing a Zippo lighter.

If you didnt know, the lid of a Zippo is designed to pop open the nozzle of their fluid bottles.

For extra excitement I like to spill the fuel AOTFP (all over the fucking place), especially on my hands... That way you get a real adrenaline rush when you light it and wait to see if the flame spreads to your hand or if enough of it evaporated that you survive. Good times.

Zippo owns the Ronsonol lighter fuel brand, true, but that doesn't mean that they had the physical Ronsonol plants change their formulas, processing equipment, techniques, suppliers, or anything else for that effects quality over to the Zippo way. They just collect in on Ronsonol profits. Owning a former competitor's branded product hardly ever means anyone changes those techniques to match that of their own, but just allows them to make profit from a former competitors brand. If anything the competitor who buys another brand is more likely to keep the lesser of the brands exactly that, inferior, so as to ensure more consumers come back to their own brand.

@@rhsking05 Actually I've found the yellow bottle junk gums up zippos. I've personally had it take lighters that lit every time for YEAR and turn them into lighters you have to strike repeatedly to light. Stick to Zippo fluid. It's shit cheap. 3-5$ for 12oz. Why ruin a great lighter for a few bucks?

How does this patina in relation to other finishes? Looks like an alternative to the "Antique" finish that may age nicer and be closer to a satin finish in time.

If its dryin up fast u bought a cheap wallmart $20 zippo lighter throw it in the trash or send it back to zippo life time warranty on all their lighters next time spend 30ish buy one from a smoke shop u wont regret it thats been my experience been a collector the Zippos for over 20 years and carry one everyday generally your lighter should last with fluid roughly a month maybe a little bit over it depends I'm a two-pack-a-day smoker roughly well one to two myn last for over a month before I have to fill them again
