Classic Regular Street Brass Windproof Lighter by ZIPPO
The ZIP97267 Classic Street Brass brings the familiar Zippo windproof lighter design together with a warm brass finish that develops a well-loved, pocket-worn appearance. Its understated Street Brass finish gives the lighter a distinctive character while retaining the practical features that have made Zippo lighters popular for generations.
The all-metal construction is built around Zippo's windproof design, allowing the flame to remain lit in challenging outdoor conditions. The lighter is also refillable, making it suitable for continued use rather than disposal when the fuel runs out. The distinctive Zippo click and hinged lid add to the familiar operation and feel of this classic lighter.
Supplied in a Zippo gift box, the ZIP97267 is suitable for everyday carry, camping kits, outdoor equipment and collectors of traditional Zippo designs. Zippo lighter fuel, flints and wicks are available separately.

A Zippo works in the cold: A butane lighter is affected by altitude, and if it gets cold or wet, it may not work at all. Matches are unreliable.
A Zippo can work with gasoline. If there is an internal combustion engine somewhere around, chances are you can fuel your lighter.
Durable design: Unlike many butane lighters, the Zippo design protects all the weaker parts. A Zippo can handle being stepped on, dropped or being stomped into the mud. If the lighter is sealed with a piece of bicycle tubing, it is waterproof. A butane lighter, such as my beloved BIC minis, could be disabled by dropping them in cold water, or by getting a grain of sand in the sparker.
One handed operation: You can light a Zippo with your weak hand, even if your other arm is broken and immobilized. You could put the lighted Zippo under a pile of twigs, and have enough time to dry out the tinder.
There are a few tips that can improve your Zippo for survival use.
“As a backup emergency fire starting system when carrying and using a Zippo lighter…remove the fiber from the bottom of it and replace it by stuffing it tightly with pure cotton. Then should you run out of lighter fluid, you just simply open up the bottom and pull out some of the cotton, not much, and place it near the flint spark wheel and PRESTO! You got fire just like a Spark-Lite Fire Starter.”
Put spare flints and wick in the fuel reservoir area: Take off the thick felt cover on the bottom, and put several flints on top. Remove enough stuffing that a wick will fit. Neither of these modifications will affect lighter efficiency.
Seal lighter with duct tape or a piece of bicycle tube: This will slow, but not stop evaporation.
Check the lighter every time before you go out. This action will assure you have at least one ignition source that should work.
Carry charcloth: Charcloth is a material that can catch any spark, and create an ember. This can be used to make a fire with a dysfunctional lighter. As long as it sparks, any lighter can be used to start a fire.
