What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The armor is a bit heaver, rounder & taller when compared to the 1941. The armor models are noticeably heavier duty than the standard. Comes with a lifetime warranty.
Zippo is one of those iconic lighters. Great lighter and the new torch insert is also awesome.
Cons
The quality is nothing like i carried 30 years ago, this one remains roadside. It's stamped zippo but doesn't say where it is made. Only problem is the fuel leaks very quickly.
Very cheep feeling, thin metal and lots of play in the hinge. The chrome finish stops short at an odd line along the inside, which is either the underlying metal or a white coating that is incomplete.
Highlights
Quality
A well known quality product that does not leak.
It’s a zippo so it’s great quality, can’t go wrong with a zippo.
I don't need to say much here because it's a zippo and you all know about zippos or you wouldn't be shopping this product.
Price
This is just the 'cost' of anotherwise bullet-proof design.
Competitiveness
This zippo lighter is nice enough, and well made enough to merit a five-star review.
It’s a great price and made the usa.

In use the butane inserts have to be constantly refilled compared to the lighter fuel inserts

It got its name because blaisdell liked the sound of the word zipper and zippo sounded more modern
