A few I found lying around

My 4 newest Zippos. The top 2 and bottom left are a series by fantasy artist Anna Stokes. The bottom right is called Steampunk Aviator

I searched and searched and searched, and one day, there it was. Most dependable lighter I own. Adjustable flame, refillable, and it's tough to lose. No one will glom it being that color either. And, the best part, it's cheap! Have three of them in various places around the house.

Similarly, I find this to be dependable, cheap ($8 at Harbor Freight), and tolerant of cheap/easy to find fuels. Obviously not for lighting pipes, but perfect for cigars.

Nice collections. I just picked up a couple scorch torches with the cigar punch, I'm hoping they last. I also got myself a cigar ashtray for Father's Day.

Beautiful! I love the Sillem's old boys, and that Linea Epoque Sterling is stunning.

Thank you Sir.

Here's my lighter
I don't like my cigars to taste like gas.

Heres my Zippo pipe lighter, pretty handy in the wind.

Here are mine. The Xikar Resource is the one I used the most with the pipes. See the New York lighter on the upper right with the Twin Towers? It was made in 2000. I bought it brand new (still had the red seal on it) along with the other four city pipes you see (I PIFed two others that aren't pictured). I carried the NY one for about a week before I put it up. It generated huge interest from some members here, so I am going to donate it for the annual auction we have for breast cancer research. I will probably swap the guts with one of the others that I haven't fueled up yet so it will be practically new.

Today, I 'pulled the trigger' and am waiting on a brand new (23yrs old...some say 'rare', in original tin, with instructions and UPC code), 1997 Premier Issue Cigar Aficionado [CA], Lighter (matte black textured finish with the CA plaque affixed to the front & protected with crystal clear enamel coating / laminate for durability [no cheap paper sticker here, boys]).

After postal receipt...I'll replace the standard Zippo liquid gas insert with a Thunderbird - Butane, blue torch, clear bottom tank Insert.

Also, I'll get it engraved with my initials, birth date and the quote...To Smoke is Human; To Smoke Cigars is Divine!

Damn that’s sweet! Congrats man

I’ve got an Old Boy with the briar. It’s nice. I honestly use standard size Bics more often than anything else. Big flame, easy to use, cheap. I can leave them around without concern. Kinda wish I hadn’t bought that old boy. To think of all the McClelland tins I could’ve bought instead.

Roger’s Rocket Flame, but more often than not I’m using hemp-wick (lit by whatever lighter) to light a bowl.

My humble collection.

I'll get around to posting a pic later, but I have a question . . .


Any place I can buy the casement for a Zippo? I had two old ones, which I converted to the single and double torch inserts for my cigars. Now I need casements for the standard inserts I wish to use for my pipes. Zippo website showed no joy.
