Description

Zippo’s Matte lighters are one of the most popular lighter finishes as the matte finish gives the lighter a smooth texture, it doesn’t show fingerprints, it doesn't scratch easily, and there are a variety of colors to choose from. The black matte lighter was first introduced into Zippo’s stock line in 1984 and soon after four more colors were introduced; Blue, burgundy, green, and gray. In 1985, the Zippo logo was imprinted on the lighter and a border was added. Matte colors and designs continue to improve with time. Each lighter has a bottom stamp signifying the year it was made, is refillable, and is backed by Zippo's famous lifetime guarantee. All windproof lighters are American made in our Bradford, PA factory and come packaged in a gift box.

  • Works like a Zippo should!
Style: No Logo Color: Black
I've owned a couple Zippo lighters over the years. So far, I've never had to throw one away because it stopped working. I generally either lose them or leave them places on accident. Thankfully, at this price, it isn't too much of a problem to just buy a new one every 3 years or so. This matte black lighter is no exception. Build quality on these continues to impress me. The finish is smooth and even, resistant to scuffs and scratches, and definitely looks much classier than your standard disposable lighter. I've never run into a bad authentic Zippo myself, and have heard very rarely about others having faulty products (which the company is great about repairing/replacing). I never go camping or hiking without my Zippo! Pros: - Nice matte finish. It'll stand up to scuffs and scratches, and doesn't stand out like a sore thumb. - Overall build quality is phenomenal. The hinge, reservoir, case, and everything else on my lighter are without flaw. - Made in the USA by a company that proudly backs it's product. - Cheaper here than you'd find at most tobacco shops or specialty stores. Cons: - Drop this in the grass or dirt at night and you may have some trouble finding it again if it wasn't lit. And a couple words of note after reading other reviews on here. 1. Be aware that this (and any other Zippo) will be shipped WITHOUT any lighter fluid. This is not an Amazon thing or a USPS thing. These lighters are shipped from the manufacturer without fluid in them. If you go to a tobacco shop to buy this same lighter (at 50% markup or more), it will also come without fluid. Sometimes, the clerk will fill it up out of courtesy. But getting the Zippo-branded lighter fluid is cheap and easy. A small 4oz. can should last you for quite a long time. 2. Expect the fluid to run out quickly the first few times you fill it up. I'm only speculating, but I think this is likely due to the material in the reservoir as well as in the wick taking a bit to thoroughly absorb the fluid. Mine usually run out within the first couple days on the first fill-up, then about a week on the secon fill-up. After that, filling the reservoir will have you set for quite awhile. The same 4oz. can mentioned above should get you through several months if you're a regular smoker, and potentially years if you only use the lighter on occasion. ... show more

  • A classic!
Style: No Logo Color: Black
If you’re gonna carry a lighter, as a man you should carry a Zippo! This one is sleek and tough! They make great fidget gadgets, too! Can’t beat that feeling of flipping that lid back and forth just to de-stress. Look like a man when starting a fire or lighting up a Marlboro! Knock off lighters just don’t cut it, go with Zippo! ... show more

  • Gift for a friend
Style: No Logo Color: Black
Got this for a friend that had never owned a Zippo before. He absolutely loves it. He has had it for a few months now and the quality hasn't dwindled. He uses it on a regular basis and it hasn't retained any scratches. The color is to die for. It's got a great texture and looks good in all lighting. Definitly worth the price and I would buy for myself if it were my style. 100% recommed this product to everyone! ... show more
