Does anyone want my rose gold armor custom ?
poor little ol' me does but I'm poor right now
@@michaelschneider8477 lol doing big boy things in your life right now.
@Zippofanatic77outdoors that's right son gotta keep the lady happy
@@michaelschneider8477 in more ways than one lol
How much my man?
It’s about time zippo has done this. Your videos are truly changing the game.
Thanks man I’m trying over here ! Lol we all do it as a community that’s for sure
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors Just repacked a D23 and an F23...find your local hairstylist (or have a woman do it for you) and get some of the 100% cotton that they use to keep perm solution from dripping into people's eyes. I'd love to see how it compares to cotton bacon...which is practically impossible to find, if so, not at a reasonable price, or in Canada, or with reasonable shipping.
Based on what you've showed, I think that "perm cotton" is a bit thicker than "Cotton Bacon"...and with a "bag of bacon" going for what it is, with the ridiculous shipping they ALL seem to want for something to small and light...it seems to me that $35-45 for a box of cotton that'll probably last the rest of your life is a LOT more reasonable!
I'm from Argentina. And I use your technique every time a buy a zippo. Thanxs
Thanks !! ❤️🇨🇦
I love the fact that you use a shell casing to put your flints in.
Lol thanks 🙏
Yeah man that’s awesome. Making great and informational content about zippos has eventually changed the outcome of their product. Love zippos , great channel man keep it up. 🤙🏾
Thanks bro !
Oh man, I thought they sealed it. lol At least they are listening. Now we just need a good sealed zippo.
Great video my man! That is my EDC and favorite style zippo. I love my vintage look zippo 😁🔥
Wow good on them for packing better! Pretty cool
Great video as always brother! Have a good one 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Luke !! U the man. Yes that vintage look with slashes is so dam slick
this is NOT a recommendation this is just something i've seen done by guys in the military.
a guy on a cot next to me one field problem was filling his (new) zippo. he yanked all the cotton filler out and put field ration toilet paper in there instead of the cotton. he messed with the case for a while, though i didn't see exactly what he was doing to it. then he took some plastic from his rations and cut it to fit the bottom of the insert. filled the thing put the plastic back on the insert and shoved it into the case. the next day i asked what he was doing and he said he might not get back to fill it for a while and this is what needed to be done to make sure the fluid lasted longer. no one carried a can of lighter fluid with them while on missions. if the thing leaked that smell was a dead give away of your position.
i had 2-3 zippos back at the barracks, but i only ever brought bic lighters to the field. you'd have to have an extra one kept somewhere else because your gas lever might get depressed in your pocket for a long time while you're laying in the dirt and end up with an empty. i didn't bring the zippos, they were pretty and i didn't want to scratch or damage them down range.
Thanks for your service
zippo is learning and that is good
Def nice to see them improving they’re product.
This is a weird fixation I have, but if i could own Zippo, the first thing I'd so is change how Zippos leave the factory. I'd have them packed correctly and I'd revert some changes made to the hinges.
The other thing I'd do is open a new factory in Canada. US and Canada would get their own inventories and designs in the hopes that this would encourage trades and collecting between Canada and the US.
I definitely noticed it also on my vintage zippo C 23 !
Nice man !! That’s super cool. Mike posted pictures of his which made me make this video.
That’s great news. Cudos to the research and development department at Zippo. Thanks for sharing. Happy smokes
Ken your the man. U actually watched the whole video and only person to give props to zippo in the comments.
👍
Great stuff man, I re-packed all Mine efter your video. Lasted from 3 Days to 2,5 week. Northern Sweden salutes you
Nice brother !! Yeah in our winter climates. These zippos are must have for outdoors
Ya know!
Nice to know I can always learn something new !
Benn carrying a Zippo since I could get my grubby little hands on one
At least 6 years old
I’m 63
Thanks man !
Not dressed without a zippo and and a knife !
Gun too
@@allenpeters9155 thanks Allen ! Yeah always got my buck knife on me also. Two American classics both with lifetime warranties. Use em all u want break em and get ‘em fixed for free
I just got rid of my new zip and got an older one because it would last about 2 weeks the new one was 2 days 😢 I'm glad to see and find your videos
Well, now I dont feel so bad about fueling up my two brand new ones before discovering your channel.😂
Hahaha perfect
I just checked my Zippos, have 3, 2 are from 2020 and 1 was from 2016 when I got my first one, the 2020s surprisingly have the wick a lot better in there then I would have thought! All I had to do was lift the bottom and I saw it there, my 2016 tho (haven't gutted it yet) just opened it up and didn't see anything, but my guess is that it will be bunched up near the top of it, no wonder it didn't last more then 3 days
Edit note : opened it up and it was just a big U with the wick like in this video, will need to see how the new ones i ordered a few days ago will look inside
New ones should be fine. If they are 2023 or newer
They have been doing this for YEARS. Both of my 2020 zippos are packed with strips and zig zag wicks. I have an unfired 1980s zippo I haven’t unpack yet but I can see the wick in that is also zig zagged with what looks like strips.
There is an episode of how it’s made from the 90’s and they show the packing machine and even in that video it’s using strips, not sure what’s going on here.
That's cool. Bought a new vintage look from 2013. The packing was horrible. But thanks to you and your old videos, my zippo game has changed.
Sick man ! Glad I could help another zippo user
Hmm, I'll be looking for your repacking video. I have to refill my zippo every day. However, I smoke a pipe and have to relight it 4 or 5 times per bowl I smoke. So, I'm using my zippo hundreds of times a day. It would be nice if it lasted longer.
I have a zippo from b 23 aswell that was packed in the old way. Must be a really new change
My grandfather always took his apart and repacked with his own in strips. Showed me 30 years ago.
I need to admit your way of filling out the cotton, fuel lasted for 9 days straight which allows me to light 10 cigarettes a day
Thanks 😊
Nice man !! I’m glad it’s working at peak performance for u brother
Yes you did. I remember that.
Hey Terri !
dang you're good at making videos
Haha thanks mike. I guess I’ve had some practice over the years. I wouldn’t of known if u hadn’t tipped me off
Zippo has been using the "strip" type wadding since the 1980's. I know this because I collect new in box vintage Zippos and have extensive notes about when certain transitions have happened (it's a pedantic nerd thing).
As for the wick routing, it's been an off and on thing. Maybe they have improved routing in the past year or two, but when they used to wick and wad by hand decades ago it was definitely a lot better.
Yeah my old ones are all great. They started fixing the issue in 2023 again
That is actually how my newer armor was. I haven't repacked my 41 replica
Yeah good on zippo to finally step up
4 Real/Right
Love The Rose Gold also
Thanks Keep it up
Thanks ! I will do my best
Zippo lord back with another video!!!!
Haha u know it brother
I still needed to repack the two new inserts I bought. Wick was mainly just crammed to the side in each.
Well at least u got sorted out. Were they 2023 inserts ?
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors Yes, both from 2023
@@starfield1874 what month ?
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors 23 is the only number on the inserts. Gold flashed and chrome pipe inserts.
@@starfield1874 lol the letter on the other side of the number is the month. A-L January to December
btw i bought a zippo in 2022 and i did the zippo cotton trick they were balls
Ok sweet so they only started doing it 2023 then
yeah I think I found the same in 2022's insert... Now I will check the newer one... I think I have 2023 Zippo...
Do you ever try cotton tow from a paintshop for your Zippo?
No I havent u?
Finally zippo has done it
I just watched a video about zippos and the shape of the cotton and routing of the wick and realized that ZF77, you and I are all autistic for Zippos
Facts lol
Zippo released rose gold armor with rose gold insert it is called Zippo Script Collectible
Is there anywhere I can purchase a chimney cap for my zippo? I’m trying to limit evaporation through the wick
U gotta buy the whole zorro insert from aliexpress. But they make your wick so black so quick that I stoped using it. Just get a butane insert
@@Zippofanatic77outdoorsthanks
i bought a zippo at a zippo store years ago (1990-ish?) and just opened it up again. was packed this same way. maybe different people are doing it or maybe different grades of zippos? al i know is my 30+ year old zippo was done right(?).
Big fan.. Can you do any tricks with Slim Zippos? Been trying but it's really difficult 😂
Haha I can but I don’t
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors Women's lighter?
@@Thatguy-nd7fn unisex now
I haven't seen you ever reviewing the iron stone zippo.
Good eye. Actually a zippo I don’t have.
Right now zippo need to increase their lighter quality 😅😅 probaly hinge!!!
Good to hear! I've been looking for cotton bacon for quite a while now, and every time I find it, it's either overpriced, in the US and they won't ship here for less than 30/40/50 and even 60 bucks!!!, or in Canuckistan, they want 20 bucks for shipping, or they're just out of stock. VERY annoying trying to find that stuff. d=^(
They now need the US Army mess kit knife ! Throw Zippo made knives !!?
Lol I got a ww2 army mess knife
bro i be just waiting for the pipe insert
Nice man !! Haha suspense killing u
yea should arrive in few days and my new pipe should come too @@Zippofanatic77outdoors
👍🏼Goodjob👍🏼 you have video proof😄
Haha for sure. Thanks Andrew
I noticed this the other day with the brass skeleton cowboy one I got. Expected to have to repack it, but no!
Oh sweet that’s a nice zip. Yeah I shoulda known something was up when everyone was commenting they’re new zippo was working fine lol
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors I told myself I was only gonna buy '41s and Vintage Looks from now on because 100% of what you said about their graphics is true, but here we are...
I carried one of the Nose Art series ones around for a while so I could have a bit of redhead on me at all times, but then one day she was missing a leg. Better use of my money to buy an old deep engraved one rather than that BS again.
@@---bp8jd hahaha yeah they are nice when they are new though. But that’s why I stick to engraved. And exactly why I think 41’s and vintage looks and 35 replicas need more engraved ones.
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors you ain't kidding. They do every design under the sun for the regular, but nothing for the other designs. Give us some more colors at least!
@@---bp8jd yeah and where’s our red crackle 41

Hey 😎
I have been watching some UA-cam videos because I am interested in purchasing a Lighter I came across your channel and pulled the trigger. Your Video on the Armor Lighters and why you should own one. The one on how to route your wick, 10 Things not to do with your Zippo... Well, my first Zippo and my First Armor Zippo ended up being the 169 HI POL BR ARMOR HEAVY (F 22) 😃 Needless to say, I am one happy camper being initiated into the Zippo Community. I even got a black Friday special (free shipping and 4.5 oz fluid) 🙄
First thing I did when I sat down to fill my new lighter was unpack the rayon balls line up the fibers repack the wick by your video and Ya, even filled the lighter using all your preferred methods. This was a good purchase and good experience for me. Thanks Zippo Fanatic 👍 Good Job on your Channel by-the-way.
Nice bro !!! Glad to be apart of it !! and welcome to the zippo mafia. Glad u got the armor brass. Don’t do tricks on it. Take care of that hinge
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors Ya, No Tricks lol, Tricks are for kids. I did wiggle the hinge, but have nothing to compare it to. The action seems loose, but closes tight, cam lock is solid and smooth acting. I back rolled the flint roller on first light up as well get that seated and shaped.
@@1Patient yeah u will noticed compared to regular ones when u get one some day. It is a little looser but it was explained to me that case is thicker so it needs to be more loose. That way the case doesnt pry the hinge away from it when u open and it close it. But on my edc armors I don’t do tricks and there’s no issues at all. But don’t drop it open haha. I can fix my hinge so doesnt bother me but it’s super tricky to do to get it to line back up. I have videos though if it ever happens to u
Zippo Just released another $150 flop. A rose gold deep carve script. They need to just close the Plant!
Yeah I know there’s more detail on one side of the rose gold armor deep carve. Then there is on the entire new 360 your talking about lol. They also claim it’s the first ever rose gold insert which isn’t true they were making them in the 90’s lol. Yeah I won’t be purchasing it. 250$ in Canada lol
Ironically, zippo is a very litigious company. Or, at least they pretend to be. That's why I don't support them anymore.
I know my friend 😅
So your saying zippo is always prone to be in a lawsuit lol
