Brushed Chrome 1941 Replica

This the best lighter I've used i wanted to find a zippo lighter that would look good with use and im glad I purchased the 1941 replica lighter the brushed chrome finish I believe will look great still years down the road I carry it in my pocket and it still looks fantastic I recommend it to anyone who's looking for a good quality lighter it will definitely get a more worn look with use but it will hold up and still look good

I own quite a few Zippos, not as a collector but to actually use. This one was on sale and couldn't pass it up for only $20. The 1941 isn't appreciably different from current ones; fewer chimney holes, hollow rivet in the striker wheel, 4 barrel hinge, more rounded top. This one is a bit plain, but perfect to use without worrying about it getting scratched. Very happy with it.

The virtues of the Zippo Lighter have really been sung since 1932, so 90+ years later there isn't anything to say that hasn't been said already. But that won't stop me... I have several of these. Relevant to this review are three of them - the brushed chrome 1935 and 1941 replicas, and the sterling silver 1941. My use case - I smoke cigars. Probably more than I should, but whatever. The cigar culture tends to default to those butane torch lighters, which to me tend to lack in the performance department. I like soft flame lighters, and don't judge me. Using a Bic lighter is, honestly, a non starter for me because, well, it lacks style AND I really don't like throwing empty lighters away to sit in a landfill for a thousand years or whatever. Yes, one of the reasons I like Zippos is the environmental factor. Sue me. The Zippo price point is really appropriate given that you're buying a lighter that will, honestly, outlive you. The mechanism is dead simple (and therefore reliable) with a flame that doesn't go out at all easily. And while the Cigar Crowd gives me some grief for the whole "but but but lighter fluid has a smell that ruins the cigar!!1!!2111" I just say "you do you." Because honestly...it is a non factor. But here's where we get interesting, and I'm referencing the Precious Metals collection. While el-cheapo torch lighters can be had at a low cost, they also are horrible. To get a GOOD torch lighter you're going to go to a brand like S.T. DuPont, and yes those cost in the $150-$200 range for the entry level. And they are still torch lighters, meaning a mechanism that doesn't really lend itself well to repair. So, put me down for the sterling silver Zippo. It's still a bit on the ostentatious side, maybe, but so what. Given the choice between the S.T Dupont and this especially at the same price point...I'll go for this every time. Really, Zippo has become an American culture touchstone, and it's something I look at fondly. There's really nothing in the world like it, and for that I'm happy. Dead simple, iconic, and reliable: that's more than enough elan for me....

I bought this lighter because I was tired of throwing away all those plastic cheap gas station lighters. There is a landfill somewhere with about a thousand of those lighters from my lifetime of use. Do yourself a favor, and stop wasting 89 cents or however much those things cost and get a lighter that will last you a while. At some point, you'll end up paying more for crappy disposable lighters than just buying this once. This lighter is apparently some sort of special edition reproduction of a 1940's design. What does this mean to you if you're not a collector? It has one less hinge compared to the modern design (four instead of five). If you are a collector, why are you collecting lighters? Seems like an odd hobby to me, but to each his own I guess. The product arrived in a timely fashion in sturdy enough packaging to make the trip. The lighter is plain brushed chrome, and did not have any defects. It did not come with extra wicks, flints or fuel. Nor does the product description claim it does come with them. A bottle of naphtha set me back a few dollars. Naphtha is a mixture of hydrocarbons containing anywhere from five to twelve carbons. What does that mean if you didn't take organic chemistry in college? Zippo lighters can use a wide range of fuel, including pump gasoline (octane). This is convenient to some people, irrelevant to others. One point I think is worth mentioning is the fact that the company warranties the hinges and outer case. Send in your lighter, and they'll repair yours or send you a new one. I've never personally dealt with this service, but it sounds like a nice perk to have.

The amazing 1941 design is a jewel. The finish is Brushed chrome face & back , high polished chrome sides. This high polished sides makes it a little bit slippery while spinning the flint wheel But it is manageable not that much slippery that can be a deal breaker. I added to it a single torch insert which made it less slippery since it doesn't spark using a flint wheel . The design is an icon and well made . The texture of the brushed chrome face & back is adding a personality to the metal while holding , using & even looking at it. Yes you can feel the texture of the brushed chrome.

This is a classic replica of the 1941 lighter. It's price right, great quality and a nice throw back to a older design. I remove the fluid insert and replace it with Z-Plus Butane Insert. The Z-Plus light fits very loosely in it and you need to use a piece of aluminum foil to make it fit snugly. The standard insert fix perfectly but the Z-Plus with the aluminum seems to push the top part of a slight alignment. It's still a great lighter and definitely worth the money if your looking for something unique.

Excellent lighter it just a little wider that a standard zippo.

I purchased this zippo because I was looking for something a little more 'of the period' when making a replica of the 4-leaf clover lighter from the Indiana Jones movie. It's a bit fatter and seems a bit shorter than its modern-day equivalent, but that's mostly because of its more pronounced edges (i.e., doesn't round as much when transitioning from face to side). In any case, if you like the classic styling, don't want a lot of fancy embellishments (although I suppose I put them on the one I purchased) and a lighter that has the classic performance of a Zippo, give this one a look.

今回初めてジッポを買ってみました。 デュポンは持っていましたが、ジッポの方が 実用的なので良いですね。まだ開閉が下手くそなので参考になりますかね。ヤフー知恵袋に 開閉音がいいのが1941レプリカと有りましたので決めてになりました。

I now own 2 of this exact lighter, the first one I purchased just to keep in a box and store away, but after awhile I couldn't resist using it, so this one will serve as the pristine one. These also give off a different click than the regular version. To those who would rather buy a knock off, I urge you to get the real thing. Firstly, by buying a genuine lighter, you are supporting an honest and fair business that makes extremely high quality products. Secondly, if you care about none of that, you are buying a lighter guaranteed to work for life. If it doesn't work for whatever reason, they will fix or replace the lighter without complaint. I highly recommend picking up at least one in your lifetime.

İç tarafı yanık geldi o yüzden iade ettim

Jag fick en använd produkt med hölje tillverkat 2023 och brännare tillverkad 2022 med förpackning öppnad och förlusten med gammalt gummiband. Brännaren var repig totalt oacceptabelt.

Increíble!!!!!
