American Flag Lighters

I got tired of getting the cheaper Zippo’s where the paint or color would come off when you have your pockets full with change or a pocket knife, you know how it goes. Yes this cost more but I believe it’s well worth it. The design is engraved into the lighter and has a little more weight to it but it’s sturdy, looks good, and works great. What better way to honor the American flag than with a sturdy lighter from a company that has a lifetime guarantee; I’ve used it on past lighters and Zippo is a no hassle company that stands behind their products. This was less expensive than going through the Zippo website and I’m all about saving some $.

It's a zippo.What can you say?Good quality like the graphics on it.Think I ended up buying two of them

bought these as gifts for the groomsmen in my wedding. All of their gifts were America themed and these were perfect. I've always loved the quality of zippo lighters to begin with and adding the cool flag/ America design was a win win. The guys absolutely loved them and will have them for years to come. Great product

This is my new favorite Zippo! The deep engraving is fantastic, the antique silver finish has a refined look, and the added weight of it being an Armor Zippo makes it particularly pleasant to hold. The only nitpicky issue I have is that they don’t put beefier hinges on the Armor Zippos, it’s just the standard hinge, and since the hinge is the weakest part of a Zippo, I can see this hinge failing sooner than a classic Zippo. Fortunately Zippo fixes any issue for free, and the few Zippos, with broken hinges, I’ve sent in to be repaired have always come back even stronger than they were originally. One suggestion for Zippo owners, not for this Zippo in particular, rather a general suggestion. You do have to pay for postage to and from when sending a lighter in to be repaired so, if possible, try to wait until you have two or more Zippos to send in in order to make the postage worth your while.

I love Zippos and collect them here and there, but this one is to be used. First, I have to say that the picture of this lighter isn't to accurate; in fact, it's much "brighter" than it appears in the photo. The company's description is "Silver plate", and that is exactly what it looks like; I don't know if it actually is silver-plated (I doubt it), but that is exactly what it looks like! Lighten up the Amazon image by 50% and you will have a good idea of what this lighter really looks like. Unlike most Zips, this one is one of the "Armor" lighters whose casings are 50% thicker than the standard Zippo. Don't think that sounds like much? Take a 2x4 board and make is a 3x' board ... Stronger, no? Stronger, yes. 50% stronger! You can feel the difference in the using of the lighter. You've heard the phrase "a manly man", I'm sure; well, this is "a manly lighter" (Silly, I know, but it makes the point). It's a pleasure to hold, a pleasure to look at and a pleasure to use. It took about 2 minutes for this this to become my favorite "go to" Zippo of the many I have. Most of my Zippos are unused ... this one should never be. Buy it and enjoy it.

I like this zippo.

Great lighter but the colors rubbed off quickly

good quality
