Pros & Cons
Pros
Zippo lighters are always dependable! Just like the original, except brass! The wwii black crinkle remake is of a time when all of the world had to depend on the allies winning the war for all to be free. Currently he uses whatever is handy to light t... Read More
The coolest part about it is that the black crackle makes it super easy to grip, flip and light all in one hand. This high polished sides makes it a little bit slippery while spinning the flint wheel. But it is manageable not that much slippery that c... Read More
It has the best look, feel in the hand and great “clink” love it. The finish is brushed chrome face & back, high polished chrome sides.
Cons
The lighter insert looses apart from the housing. The insides were severely discolored on receipt. I have no idea how this brass case (along with it's insert) passed qc.
I regret having purchased this item. I feel since it's sold and distributed by amazon that they would be able to take care and refund fake and defective products they sell. Gas is too expensive for me to be returning half of my orders!
Overall very flimsy, i wish i could say it's counterfeit, but looks like it's just a very low quality product on zippo's part. One came without white outer box, both have scratches and fingerprints.
Highlights
Quality
Theyre also well made and can last a lifetime
I really like the quality reproduction and gave this one to my son who loves it
I was able to open and close with one hand from the first attempt even though i had spilled lighter fluid on my fingers
If you know anything about silver you know it’s not magnetic
Price
Love it and a good price too
I wish the lighter fluid was a little cheaper but it’s a small price to pay to have an amazing piece of history in your hands
I really wasnt expecting much only bought it because it was really cheap on sale
For the price here you cant go wrong
Shipping
I did a returnreplace and the very next day the correct one arrived
Packaging/appearance
Product was very well packed and the lighter box will be very safe during transit
Very pretty and super easy to use i got more than i thought i was getting
I got the 1935 replica to carry without worrying about scratches because the pictures made it seem rather brushed but as i open... Read More
Hes a history buff too and the box has a little list under where the lighter sits explaining how the 34194134 design differs fr... Read More
Competitiveness
This lighter is no different other than a few things that fall in line with a vintage lighter of the same era
If it werent for the customization and limitless variety the zippo corporation would struggle financially because nobody who ow... Read More
But this gave me the chance to compare the vintage to the classic

The lighter didnt work so i bought this zipper as it is more square and shorter and it fits the pocket for the lighter of the cigar holder

Was hoping to add another silver 1941 replica to my collection but alas dear friends this ain’t it… can’t imagine what this would feel like to somebody who didn’t already have one
