Casually mentioned to a relative that I’ve always wanted a Zippo lighter and they gave me some of their collection that the didn’t want anymore!

They gave me a few from their collection that they no longer wanted.

Hi there,

So i found the zippo my ex gf gave me 11 years ago as a birthday present. But the engraving bothers me. Any idea how to remove it without effing it up completely?

Had this zippo for about 6 months and today wanted to open but when I took the sticker off its took the “polish” off as well. Has anyone had this happen to them?

Zippo flame

Why does my zippo flame do this? And also why is my wheel so hard to turn without using a lot of preassure?

This month in rj reynolds zippos (8 total)

A pretty prolific month, especially bagging two white whales in bomber girl lucky strike and especially yellow oval camel good boy (found out recently the camel used for alot of the package art and merchandise was very friendly with people. There's a zippo commemorating his life it's adorable.)

The two chrome camels that look the same aren't. One is a 5 sided with nothing on top one is a 3 side with "camel" on top.

Anyone else grab anything cool this month? I was thinking a month-end wrap might be cool for anyone wanting to share. It's neat to see what zippos you guys collect.

I got a few ronson and 2 evans but that's for r/lighters and there are alot of bic peasants and annoying contrarions over there so meh.

Anyone know why they make sunglasses?

Zippo usually keeps its products to lighters and lighter adjacent products. But they also sell sunglasses? Why? I bought some to see the quality and they’re not bad. Definitely not rayban quality or anything but they are polarized and metal framed. What do they hope to achieve here?

Where do you keep yours?

Good afternoon guy's

As I've started to get a proper interest in the zippo lighters I would like to end up with several. I have 3 young children so always conscious about leaving my lighters sitting around.! I'm just wondering how you all store your collection.? For example do you have them in a display box or stored out of the way.? Any links, or images of what you use would be really helpful.

Thank you and enjoy the rest of your day.

Brass Armored Slim Zippo

Just a quick question for all you experts out there. Are there any slim Zippos in a brass finish which also have the armor case or am I stuck with the chrome finish for the time being?

I know I'm asking for the best of everything, but I find it difficult to find any good info at all. The Slim + Armor variant appears to be weird enough already, to the point where it's advertised on the page for the Regular Armor Zippo, but then the regional storefront doesn't even have it anywhere to be found.

I reckon I'm out of luck, but somebody has to kill my hope that it does in fact exist
