[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 451028, member: 2244"] I got my first (and only) Zippo when I went to the U of Vietnam back in '69 and still have it and use it when I'm out and about ( wooden matches when inside at home) and got a pipe insert for it around '75 . One thing to remember about them is that they were designed for the 3 to 4 second time it takes to light a cigarette, NOT the longer flame as needed for a pipe so yes they will use more fuel FASTER than some others! They are everything you read, reliable, durable, will burn just about ANY type of fuel, except gas of course, and the warrenty can't be beat! :twisted: And I've NEVER encountered ANY taste from any type of lighter I've used whether gas or liquid fuel.
