Looks like a Seiko Tuna Can in there, too. Or maybe a Vader, it's hard to tell. All the same, very nice! I've always wanted a shrouded Seiko diver.

It's a Tuna-can

Thread resurrection! Well, it's been a month.

So...who can do zippo tricks?

Zippo lighters are cool. Much more fun than butane lighters. It's amazing the variety of models that are available. I have a couple from my days as a tobacco junky. I now have a really fine cigar lighter (butane) that I use now for setting off fireworks (it's wind proof). I think that the fluid in the zippo flame would do my rare cigar an injustice. So butane for me. But I have my zippo memories.

is it bad that this thread makes me miss cigarettes?

 

[raymondlin]

I have one too ! I don't smoke so there are no gasoline in it, flint is unused. This one is about £40/$75 new.

This thread - and Zippo lighters in general, really - want me to start smoking!

Hey, will any lighter fluid do? Or should we really stick to Zippo. Also, is there much leakage with these? Can I just put them in my pant pocket? I bought a few second hand, but haven't started using them yet. Will post pics when my latest one arrives. It has The Beatles logo emblazoned across it! Woot!

Can anyone do any cool tricks with the zippo ?

 

[Baines93]

I can do a squeeze, and flick it open by flicking my wrist holding either end.

 

[necropimp]

i can do a cool trick with my zippo...

i can make fire

 

[TheMarchingMule]

I actually don't want to learn tricks with it, mainly because I just love setting stuff on fire.

Today I literally burned a few CDs, and I made one into some kind of demented art form: parts of it are split by melted plastic, and other parts of it have frozen drips of hot silicon junk.

I proudly hung it over the top shelf in the bathroom; I'm waiting for my roommate to see it.

Beatles Zippo lighter! Woot!
