Black texture on a solid brass body is scratch resistant and will not fade away. The unmatched quality and features of the new Zippo Blu lighters deserves admiration. The lighter boasts new patented flint wheel ignition technology that emits a powerful butane torch flame. It also features the same chimney pattern that you are used to seeing in the traditional zippo lighters. You can use any brand of premium quality triple refined butane to refil these lighters. This lighter comes with the zippo seal which shows that the lighter has not been used or opened. The lighter is backed by zippo's 30 year guarantee. Proudly Made in USA. Please note that the lighter ships without butane filled. The lighter comes beautifully packaged in a zippo cardboard gift box. We recommend filling it with only premium grade triple refined butane such as lotus, colibri or zippo brand of butane. We offer custom engraving on this lighter.
