@@zippolyonsden1623 I can kinda see why they don't sell them at stores because if you actually use them they probably scuff up pretty quick and don't look great.
It's a very sharp looking style. You should still show off the paperwork even briefly, since the biggest Asian markets are China, Japan, and South Korea. It's still possible to determine which country of origin based on that paperwork and I just happen to be literate in two out of three of them, and can easily discern if it's from the third.
Totally agree, solid high polish brass is one of my favorites. Definitely will make a short showing the paperwork that came with it. Would love to discover where it originated from. Thank you in advance.
Zippo doesn't sell them officially. I bought this one off Ebay. From the Asia/Pacific market as far I could tell. The paperwork is all written in Asian dialects.
Dang that's beautiful! I'm surprised they don't sell these direct, it seems like they would be big with collectors.
I agree. Personally, I prefer the high polish brass finish over the brushed finish. Seems I have been getting more into plain brass again lately, lol.

My daily carry Zippo is a high polish brass armor Zippo. Has been keeping its shine pretty good. I polish it up every so often though.

Took me a little bit to figure out how to copy and share the link for Ebay. Here it is though. 🙂
Do they sell these?
