That is just a lovely, extraordinary Zippo. Thanks a bunch for the tip about getting rid of the sticker residue. I'm getting 4 Zippos in a couple of weeks.
@Gewehr7 I ALWAYS do. :D I've kept flints under the pads since I started collecting. I've never had so much as one flint "go bad". Before I full I just lift up the felt pad and dump the spare flint out, so I'm not squirting right on the flint, and then put it back in when you are done. I've had that spare flint be a lifesaver more than once.
I never put a flint under any of my zippos because I always thought the fluid would make the flint all gunky. Is this true? Is it fine if I put the spare flint under the felt pad?
hey i have been seeing almost all ur zippo vids and they are really useful now im gonna get one knowing that i wont break it...thanks!!keep up the videos!thumbs up! from singapore
im buying my first zippo soon and i found this video to be extremely helpful. Looks like i wont be doing that orange sticker mistake lol... by the way i KNEW your watch was an omega at first glance.. thanks for actually showing it off because i was right. GREAT WATCH and Great Zippo and thank you for all of the tips. I feel like an expert now.
@LosLocosDeLaPradera Very common. Most of our gas stations have displays with all kinds of Zippos. I had no idea about Spain, that really is interesting to know!
Hey, i just got a zippo the other day and it came in a bigger package and it came with flints and lighter fluid and something els that looks kinda like paper but thinner. what is it?
@mjndblain I understand that. You ARE paying for the name (and what goes with it, i.e. the superb SUPERB Zippo customer service), but in this case it is also a luxury item. My Omega Seamaster didn't cost $2000 because of parts and labor either. :P You pay for the name, history, prestige, etc. as well as a small bit for the high-end parts and labor because, it isn't junk parts wise. This Seamaster has a Sapphire Crystal, top of the line custom ETA movement, etc. Same goes for the Zippo. :)
No. The only irritation you will get is if it leaks in your pants, and stays in contact with your leg for a while. You can get a slight irritation then. :)
I bought it few days ago in a store.Everything looks original and i think that it is but there was no sticker.Maybe the seller removed it so she could show it to someone ?
@Speedogg138 it dosent say anything on it but there is a ton of sheets of it. the box it came in was just like yours but like 3 times the size and that was there when i opened it up. idk what it is. its not wick or the cotton ball stuff inside.. im confused hahah!
@LosLocosDeLaPradera You are right about the tube becoming clogged, but don't forget that all-star Zippo warranty! :D $42 for a plain Zippo is absurd! Buy them on eBay. :)
@knifedude3 I can't make that decision for you, but I will say that Matte finish Zippos will hold up much better finish wise than say a polished chrome.
@zippolove353 I paid 35 cents! I mention this in the video. It went like this: The price on eBay was $37, I had an eBay buck certificate for $25 and I bought a Grupon where I paid $7 and got a $15 gift certificate. :)
I've seen your zippo collection videos, and be careful leaving the flint for a long time without use inside a Zippo. It will disintegrate and will leave the tube clogged. Very nice one the bolted Zippo. You must see the japanese Zippos, they are awesome. Search in ebay Japan Zippo Station. Very expensive but a real piece of art. I wonder how in USA you buy old Zippos and use it. Here in Europe they are very expensive, nearly a luxury item. In a cigar store a regular Zippo could cost you 42 $...
Nice video nothing against zippo but $62 is a little to much but its a good design. I really dont see why people hate or if d the littlest to argue about. They dont realize they hate on a channel with about 5x more subscribers and channel views (I have no room to talk I barley have any videos) but I hate seeing stuff like this great video
doesn't zippo lighter fluid or any for that matter irritate your hands? like you're not supposed to get it on your hand? anyway, great video, I found it for 34 bucks on amazon and now I want it so bad :D!
@Speedogg138 And i think, that these Zippos on USA will be much cheaper than here. In Spain i've only seen Zippos in cigar stores or in some webs. Very few places to find a Zippo. On gas stations, we have "Clipper" lighters. It's a very common butane lighter made in Spain. Cheap and reliable. Very often used by marijuana smokers because the flint/wheel part is removable (similar to the Zippo Blu) so can press the cigar. It is the "Spanish Zippo" Here is the website: clipper.eu/
@100missedcalls Well, I already bought a $1200 iMac and I use my iPhone for 720p HD videos. xD Also, James Bond doesn't wear a fossil. xD But yeah, I wanted to have a giveaway sooner, but I had no idea how much this dump of a state was going to rob me of to get a pistol. Now that that is don though we will see. :) There will always be Zippo stuff though. :D
@Speedogg138 The best guarantee in the world, but with this price, i'm very careful with my Zippos. I don't have eBay account or paypal. But i have a question. There in USA Zippos are very common among people? I think so, after seeing many Americans with videos of their Zippos In Spain, when you use a Zippo to light a cigarette people go mad and asks you if is a real zippo It's shocking
Cool story bro. An attitude like this and the other troll comments you have posted on my vids is why you have 2,000 views and I have over half a million. I wish I could be as cool as you! :)
ok zippos are nice..but 62 dollars for a lighter no disrespect to zippo but in reality its a piece of metal which zippo probably gets the metal for like 60 cents a piece i love zippos but there over priced you are not paying for a lighter you are paying for a well known brand name which is why some things like no name brand foods and branded foods are cheaper and more expensive..that is the truth nice zippo though
no offense dude :) ur vid is awesome thank you :) but it is going to be much better if u made it a 10 mins or less vid !! anyways thanks ! i appreciate ur effort :)
That is just a lovely, extraordinary Zippo. Thanks a bunch for the tip about getting rid of the sticker residue. I'm getting 4 Zippos in a couple of weeks.
When you sand it down you will get to the brass underneath. You could get the same results by buying a non-chromed (just left brass) Zippo.
@Gewehr7 I ALWAYS do. :D I've kept flints under the pads since I started collecting. I've never had so much as one flint "go bad". Before I full I just lift up the felt pad and dump the spare flint out, so I'm not squirting right on the flint, and then put it back in when you are done. I've had that spare flint be a lifesaver more than once.
@ZippoMan2011 Me too, + this iMac. Made this video a breeze to make. Thanks for the comment! :D
Thanks for the view! :)
I never put a flint under any of my zippos because I always thought the fluid would make the flint all gunky. Is this true? Is it fine if I put the spare flint under the felt pad?
beautiful beautiful zippo! i wouldn't have the courage to use it
if you simply dab the sticker residue, with the sticky part of the removed sticker, it will instantly remove theglue

Looking forward for my first Zippo... Thanx for this vid. Is really helpful
Oh and why not put the flint in that little pad where it says lift to fill i dont know if urs have it but for me theres usually a little hole there
Will the flint get wet and not work if you put it in the bottom of the zippo?
Hey, i just got a zippo the other day and it came in a bigger package and it came with flints and lighter fluid and something els that looks kinda like paper but thinner. what is it?
@brieman2 You can, but it can be hard to get it out. Zippo also recommends putting it under the felt. :)
Thanks fir the help! I'm getting my new one on Tuesday!
@mjndblain I understand that. You ARE paying for the name (and what goes with it, i.e. the superb SUPERB Zippo customer service), but in this case it is also a luxury item.

@Darkairsoft22 No. Lots of people do that and have flints in there for years.
No. The only irritation you will get is if it leaks in your pants, and stays in contact with your leg for a while. You can get a slight irritation then. :)
I bought it few days ago in a store.Everything looks original and i think that it is but there was no sticker.Maybe the seller removed it so she could show it to someone ?

@ChrisTheKillgun I believe the "CS" stands for "Crown Stamp", but I have no idea on the"R".
@IBot330 Brushed Chrome. It can be had on Amazon for around $10.
@invertminichannel No idea...I'd have to see it. What does it say on it?
Do you absolutely have to use zippo brand lighter fluid?
Zippo even recommends this. You just use the lit to unscrew the flint tube.
In order to do what with it?
@knifedude3 I can't make that decision for you, but I will say that Matte finish Zippos will hold up much better finish wise than say a polished chrome.
I bought a new zippo without the red sticker.Should I be concerned ?
@zippolove353 I paid 35 cents! I mention this in the video. It went like this: The price on eBay was $37, I had an eBay buck certificate for $25 and I bought a Grupon where I paid $7 and got a $15 gift certificate. :)
Hows the museum? My dad says he thinks it would suck becuase he thinks zippos have no history? How big is it?
@IBot330 Yes. All Zippos come unfilled.
doesn't the fuel ruin the flint stone when its in the fuel compartiment>
No. Zippo even recommends this.
ooh, ok
You kept a flint inside your zippo? then you should know that you need to bring a flat screw everytime now.
I've seen your zippo collection videos, and be careful leaving the flint for a long time without use inside a Zippo. It will disintegrate and will leave the tube clogged.
Very nice one the bolted Zippo. You must see the japanese Zippos, they are awesome. Search in ebay Japan Zippo Station.
Very expensive but a real piece of art.
I wonder how in USA you buy old Zippos and use it. Here in Europe they are very expensive, nearly a luxury item.
In a cigar store a regular Zippo could cost you 42 $...
@zippolove353 I sure did and I really like it! I have envy for some of those lighters, and I see it is more than just Zippos!
@RcUniverseGuy The box did not open? ;)
Thanks for the info at the end, i just recently got a zippo and
You've got those meaty airport security hands.
@zippolove353 You take the burner off with a pair of pliers and it will go out. :)
Nice video nothing against zippo but $62 is a little to much but its a good design. I really dont see why people hate or if d the littlest to argue about. They dont realize they hate on a channel with about 5x more subscribers and channel views (I have no room to talk I barley have any videos) but I hate seeing stuff like this great video
Ryan Titchell I paid 180 for sterling silver Zippo 62 is nothing lol
What is this zippo called?
Awesome video!!
doesn't zippo lighter fluid or any for that matter irritate your hands? like you're not supposed to get it on your hand? anyway, great video, I found it for 34 bucks on amazon and now I want it so bad :D!
@invertminichannel But as for the paper stuff, I'd have to see it. No idea.
Unless you don't have fingernails or realize that the screw often gets stuck even with a finger tightening. ;)
Very. If it was "new" and not "used" then it either had a red sticker, it isn't really "new", or it's fake.
You can't bribe people on eBay to give you 5 star feedback. :) Those flints were trying to do that.
@zippolove353 He is a common guy on eBay. My Ziplight was made January of 1996.
very clean cut
Thanks for the tips.
@zippolove353 kipkay has a video on where to get AAAA batteries out of a 9 volt. Watch that if your batteries die. :)
@brieman2 I have a full video with pictures and information. Check my channel for the "Zippo/ Case Visitors Center" video. :D
it ran out of fuel the next day and i was wondering why.
@Hoggles49 Well, actually, if you pay REALLY close attention you may notice it was a bit more than that. xD
@Speedogg138 And i think, that these Zippos on USA will be much cheaper than here.
In Spain i've only seen Zippos in cigar stores or in some webs. Very few places to find a Zippo.

you can also just use your finger to unscrew it, there is no real reason to tighten it past finger tight.
"dont be a dingle" subscribed
@Speedogg138 Thanks I will do that to my Zippo that is in my pocket as soon as I am done typing this message. :)
@brieman2 yeah that's to help you lift it up
Thank you, very helpful :-)
@Speedogg138 The best guarantee in the world, but with this price, i'm very careful with my Zippos.
I don't have eBay account or paypal.
But i have a question. There in USA Zippos are very common among people? I think so, after seeing many Americans with videos of their Zippos
In Spain, when you use a Zippo to light a cigarette people go mad and asks you if is a real zippo
It's shocking
Exclamation points! Make all comments! More interesting!
Because they are collectors? ;)
@gschales I know it's a cigarette lighter...heven't tried to light any girls on fire yet...
A very cool Zippo i have Theo blak ice
Can't say that I do, but thank you for your interest. :)
Zippo bolted armor.
@Speedogg138 Thanks man!
Always. :)
I wasn't aware that I should waste my time with troll "comebacks". :)
Cheer up mate! :)
Nice video :)
@zippolove353 That sounds about right. :)
@invertminichannel It probably came in this: amazon(dot)com/Zippo-Lighter-Flints-Fluid-Included/dp/B002A1NXA6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1325220791&sr=8-2
Great review my friend, can you give me the link to your zippo?
Who the heck uses zippo LIGHTER FLUID to polish the zippo
Ok. :)
come backkkkkk
Cool story bro. An attitude like this and the other troll comments you have posted on my vids is why you have 2,000 views and I have over half a million. I wish I could be as cool as you! :)
Yes, your 2 subscribers agree. :)
Pretty much, except mine are white.

LOL, That Zippo is 32$ at my smoke shop.
@knifedude3 Buy some? it is a lighter after all. :P
Until now. :)
if only your mic volume was louder
good deal
that is the best fucking zippo ever
No, I just prefer it.
fuckin agree man.. his hands are like sausages
ok zippos are nice..but 62 dollars for a lighter no disrespect to zippo
but in reality its a piece of metal which zippo probably gets the metal for like 60 cents a piece i love zippos but there over priced
you are not paying for a lighter you are paying for a well known brand name
which is why some things like no name brand foods and branded foods are cheaper and more expensive..that is the truth nice zippo though
@Speedogg138 just maybe. :P
no offense dude :) ur vid is awesome thank you :) but it is going to be much better if u made it a 10 mins or less vid !! anyways thanks ! i appreciate ur effort :)
