Review on Show Your Patriotism with Zippo American Flag Lighters by Crystal Velar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Virtually indestructible

This is my new favorite zippo! The deep engraving is fantastic, the antique silver finish feels luxurious, and the Armor Zippo's added weight feels particularly good in the hand. The only issue I have is that they don't put stronger hinges on the zippo armor, it's just a standard hinge and as the hinge is the weakest part of the zippo I see this hinge failing sooner than the classic Zippo. Luckily, Zippo fixes any problem for free, and the few broken hinged Zippo's I sent in for repair still came back stronger than they were originally. A suggestion for Zippo owners, not specific to this Zippo but a general suggestion. You must pay the postage when you send your lighter in for repair. So, if possible, try to wait until you have two or more Zippos to send in to recoup the postage.

Pros
  • Made in USA; lifetime guarantee that "work or repair for free"
Cons
  • threadbare
