Review: Stunning Lighter With Real Weight and Quality - This gold Zippo instantly became one of my favourite lighters. The high-polish brass looks gorgeous in person, shiny, reflective, and with that classic, slightly vintage feel that only brass gives. The Armor casing is noticeably thicker than a standard Zippo, which gives it a solid, premium weight in the hand. The hinge feels tight and smooth, and the famous Zippo “click” is as satisfying as ever. Once filled, it lights on the first strike with a steady flame, even outdoors. The adjustable flame is a nice touch too, letting you fine-tune it depending on what you’re using it for. I also really liked the presentation. It comes in a sleek gift box that makes it feel special right out of the packaging, great as a present or just for collectors. If you want a lighter that looks incredible, works reliably, and will last for years, this one is absolutely worth it.
Review: Lovely - A very nice lighter. This is the 'armor' version, which is American for 'Armour'. Feels nice and strong. Lights every time and is hard to blow out. I love the shiny brass look. I'm certain this will spark into life for ages to come. Fits easily in a 'Pocket watch pocket' on my jeans. Simple to use. Great.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: whats the differences between 'armor' high polished and high polished?**
A: 'ARMOR' high Polish is much heavier gauge brass, much heavier❗️

**Q: Does the solid brass version actually have 'Solid Brass' written on it like pictured?**
A: What's funny is all zippos are made from brass sheet metal. Unless it's a limited edition run the brass zippo and the solid brass zippo are both solid brass zippos. Only real difference is the stamp. All the chrome and nickel zippos are plated brass.

**Q: Does it has lighter fluid in ?**
A: No. You will have to buy ronsonol lighter fluid for it.

**Q: Is the Zippo lighter allowed to be taken in the airplane (in the suitcase)?**
A: If you search the web for `tsa lighter`, the first results from the TSA-dot-gov website say "yes" for carry-on, "yes (but)" for checked. Full statement reads: "Disposable and Zippo lighters without fuel are allowed in checked bags. Lighters with fuel are prohibited in checked bags, unless they adhere to the Department of Transportation exemption, which allows up to two fueled lighters if properly enclosed in a DOT approved case."
