I am not much of a smoker, though I do enjoy a fine cigar and have enjoyed pipe tobacco in the past. Zippo lighters were always something of a puzzle to me; they are beautiful to look at; yet horribly inefficient. The lighter fluid that you load Zippo lighters with stinks. Worse than that, it evaporates; try using a Zippo that has been sitting in a desk drawer for a few months, you won’t have much joy.

The Zippo Blu range is a full range of blue flame lighters. They have remained quite true to form by incorporating the flint system and keeping the shape rather Zippoesque. Some purists might take offense to butane in a Zippo, but I think it is high time.

Prices are in the range of $33 to $59 from Amazon.
