    I’ll see your Bic and raise you Zippo!

    Just got my first one a while back, I bought it 2nd hand and it’s 7 years older than me and works better than any lighters I’ve borrowed off people over the years.

    Replacement parts and even completely new lighter inserts still fit the original cases from the 1940s until now. And if something does break beyond you ability to repair, They got a lifetime warranty with no proof of purchase needed!

      I had a chrome Zippo XIV, one of the models you just don’t fuck with.

      I loaned it out one day to light fireworks. Somehow they overheated and ruined the flint wheel…

      Anyways, if I catch you swapping Zippo parts, I’m gonna melt Frosty the Snowman…
