Making this comment on Slickdeals is hilariously ironic
I think you're on the wrong site. Apparently you wanted fullpricedeals.net
If you preferred full price vs discount, you shouldn't be on here.

Pretty valid. You won't light a cig in a hurricane, but it'll withstand a brisk breeze.
Imagine being in a hurricane and your priority is to light up 😆

Quote from Devaney1984 :
Buy a 5 pack of Bics for half of this price and they'll last 40 years with zero maintenance.
Better check those Bics from time to time cause seals fail in all lighters.. Bic is a better choice No a Zippo with normal liquid fluid is a choice for anyone that doesn't want to do constant maintenance.. I Like Zippo with a butane insert just cause I like to carry it and play with it like a fidget toy when I am not fidgeting with my pocket knife Smilie... Zippos are fun to play with.

Yes they are, still made in Bradford PA and they still repair them there, haven't changed in forever
I've got an older, vintage Zippo and a newer one, and they were made better back then than now.

A few differences:

a) As ElatedSpaniel543 points out, the inserts on the solid brass models are no longer brass; they use the normal inserts (chrome-plated steel, not stainless steel) now. On some models of brass Zippo, they have a brass-plated steel insert. You can tell b/c the brass plating is very thin and will wear off, and the insert attracts a magnet.
b) All the sheet metal is slightly thinner than before. You can tell by measuring with calipers or by weighing them.
c) The chrome plating on chrome models is slightly thinner and wears through faster.

One improvement though is the spot welding. I sent my ancient Zippo in for repairs when the hinge loosened up too much and they spot-welded the replacement hinge like the newer units.

That said, I am not complaining about current-day Zippo quality. There are far worse examples of corner-cutting and shrinkflation. They've done a great job of keeping quality high enough to still be worth every penny.

Quote from hungrytiger :
Good survival equipment?
Yes and no.

Zippos are great for camping, especially in windy (but not hurricane-force) conditions.
BUT, they are not waterproof, the fuel evaporates, and they won't start a fire in extreme cold. One upside though is that you can refuel them with quite a few different types of liquid fuels including gasoline.
So if camping or packing your bugout bag for survival, pack one Zippo in a ziploc bag (helps keep the fuel from evaporating) and one alternative fire starter, whether it be a cheap Bic lighter or a magnesium-based striker.

Yes. You can buy or make gaskets that drastically reduce the evaporation rate, though.

Ah, chrome plated, that makes more sense. Thanks for all the info, I miss my old tarnished brass one … I think I borrowed from my dad without permission. I lost it at a sonic youth concert in 1996

Sorry to hear that.

You can find vintage all-brass ones on ebay and estate sales--we can't transport you back in time to the Sonic Youth concert to find your lost lighter, but you can at least get a lighter just like it.

If all you care about is brass, not that it's vintage, there are aftermarket makers like Zorro that make brand-new all-brass inserts today, but the prices are high enough that looking for a vintage one is better.

If you don't have $20 bucks for full price then you got bigger problems huh
I do have to agree. The amount of money smokers spend on cigs make this discount trivial and pointless. But good for those using it for other purposes I guess.

A good basic Zippo at a good price. Most Zippo designs are way overpriced.

With a butane torch insert these can become pretty useful for tinkering.
