>>963813I love my Zippo, I've been using it for years. Thought I lost it in a move about a year and a half ago, but found it in a jacket right as I was about to throw it out. They are awesome little lighters if you know how to maintain them.
That said, I also always carry a Bic lighter with me - always. Have one in my jacket pocket, 2 in the car, countless at home. Bic lighters are a VERY cheap and easy solution to most fire lighting problems that may occur. I'd say the Zippo is a lot more fashion than it's reputation puts out. They are great lighters to be sure, but if you're not using it daily (like smoking) then I'd say just stick with a Bic, they are much easier to use to start fires.
