Zippo Pipe Lighter

It is ok, but does not do a good job lighting pipes. It takes too long to light a pipe.

Useful with a pipe. I like it better than the plastic taste of butane.

It works, but more as a collection item. Good memory from 70th. Today's lighters are cleaner.

The reliability and quality of Zippos cant be understated; bonus its made in America and works flawlessly to light my pipe on my daily walks. Cons: The Pipe Zippo insert is slightly smaller then most Zippo inserts so if you have designs on just switching the body know that it does not fit perfectly and can ride up when attempting to close.

Amazing people, incredible customer service! Both times I've ordered by phone I've had the delightful assistance of Bethany! So knowledgeable, so kind! I am with Pipes and Cigars for the long haul!

The black crackle lighter is the first pipe lighter I have had, The finish is nice and very durable and works great lighting my pipes. I would recommend it to anyone

Little disappointed in its lighting ability and probable expense. On a full brier, cob, etc., and a 1/4 tank it's hard to light the pipe. It uses fuel at like 6 mpg whether you use it or not due to evaporation. Flint comes next and the wick a little later. It works a little better than a match to understand this. Perhaps the butane version works better but I don't like the reliability that I have experienced on non-Zippo butane, anyway. Don't get me wrong, when the pipe is lit and you puffed it for awhile the Zippo will re-light your pipe easily. It's just when you start a new smoke or full pipe. Fuel odor is minimal and not a bother but purist should stick to butane. But I am not disappointed in the quality of the Zippo, but its pipe lighting ability should be taken as nostalgic novelty. If you like old-world style of lighting your pipe I'm quite sure you'll enjoy the Zippo. Just beware to have lots of lighter fluid available. Every 5 days for me it must be refilled. Flints in a couple of weeks and wicks adjusted after that. But wicks should look like they could last many, many months. You have 2 -3 pullups. But I miss the convenience and efficiency of those ubiquitous butane BICS. To get a maximum light pull the wick across the width of the entire chimney or hole.

Zippo's are always a good lighter. But the decoration Is wearing off did not know was only decal, thought would be enamel.

I'm an outdoor piper and this Zippo performs great, even on a breazy day.

It is the greatest lighter ever made, I use it daily, thank god they got their business of the grown in 1932.

Good

It's a Zippo, I expected nothing less than perfect, and that it is. Works just fine and I am glad to have it.

Typical Zippo quality and reliability, only with an easier to grip one-handed case.

This is a typical Zippo product. Works reliably all the time. The design is great for the pipe smoker.

No sense in complicating the spark/fuel/oxygen process. Zippo has been doing it for a long time -- simple and works every time. After a decade or so, the detent spring for the lid broke on my old one and that's why I bought this one. I sent the broken one to Zippo and I'll soon get a fresh lighter back in your old case. I wish my old Mercedes has such a warranty.

It's a Zippo, it's simple and it works everytime. Great lighter.

works extremley well even in wndy conditions

I'm very happy with my recent purchase of a Zippo Pipe Lighter - Armor Polished Brass. Like my many other Zippos, it is well made and reliable - working every time. I really like the heavy case this lighter came with as it feels substantial in addition to giving the lighter a nice weight and durability. The principal reason I wanted a pipe lighter was to preserve the rims of my pipes that were darkening from my regular lighters. This lighter has solved my problem. Care and maintenance of Zippo lighters is very easy from replacing flints and wicks to quickly fueling the lighter on your way out the door. This is by no means the most expensive lighter out there but, wouldn't you rather use the money you save to buy another pipe or try other tobaccos? And who doesn’t love the Zippo click? I definitely do and I therefore highly recommend this product.

Love it seems to work better then the other Zippo pipe lighers i own.

What can you say? It looks great and does the job. Who wants to carry around matches?

EXCELLENT SERVICE , GREAT SELECTION, AND FAIR PRICES!

Like it, a great value and excellent lighter. What I've come to expect from Zippo.

This lighter is wonderful to use, thank god for the zippo company keep making them.

Great pipe lighter. Nothing beats a Zippo!

Time proven and reliable. Tried others but always return to Zippo.

It's a great lighter.

Great quality that you would expect from zippo! Really happy with this.

I have had a Zippo lighter of sorts for 52 years and they were the best. Always lighting on the first or second try. I have lost probably five by lending them, setting them down and just forgetting where I laid them. The one I had in the service, I believe, was lost to a friend. I now have three but this is the first pipe lighter and works great.

Works very well retains fluid much longer

It's a great lighter, the only problem is if you add to much lighter fluid. You can taste it in the pipe.

nothing better IMHO

better than the butane lighters

I prefer matches, but even the slightest breeze will have you go through a box of matches and not even get a prelight going. Zippos are economical and not too bad if you loose one. Better than carrying around one of those $150 pipe lighters. I have this on me at all times.

I am old school I like it

Zippo, only the best there is!

love it !

love it ! half the price I would have paid locally.

As always, Zippo has done it again! The pipe lighter I received is another great Zippo product and is my second Zippo. The first was not a pipe lighter, but that does not mean I haven't been using and enjoying it for years to light my pipes. Thanks again Zippo! Edward H.

Does what is needed and required.

Bought this as a gift for my Dad, he loves it!!!!

Not only is this Zippo lighter great looking, it is built to last. That is why they have the lifetime warranty on them. I really like how light and compact my Zippo lighter is as well. So I look forward to many years of reliable pipe lighting with my ZIPPO- BLACK MATTE pipe lighter.

Love it!

love it

Exactly what I expected from Zippo. Solid and well made

Several years ago, I used a regular Zippo lighter to light my pipe (company logo thing). Then used a butane pipe lighter for a number of years. Recently bought a Zippo pipe lighter & am I happy. Much better light than the pencil flame of a butane. Easier on the top of the bowl also.

This lighter works terrific in a strong wind for the pipe. Nice soft flame, I have not noticed a chemical flavor imparted to the tobacco that others have.

Zippo is quality American made.

Always like using a Zippo lighter with the pipe lighter insert. Just something about a Zippo. My Dad used one all while I was growing up. I also like how easy it is to light my pipe in the wind with the pipe insert. Most of all, the lighter looks great. Thank you P&C on the ease to find it, order it and receive it in a timely manner.

What are the best tobacco companies I bought from

great reliable lighter

The design is old and unimproved and that's a good thing because it works faithfully time and time again (the 1911 of lighters). The biggest con is the taste of fuel but for me it is easily overlooked because the amount of time I have a flame to my pipe is minimal. What I love is that when I flip the lid and hit the flint, it lights every time and stays lit even in windy conditions (like driving down the highway at 65 with the windows down). Maintenance is easy and parts are readily available for when a flint or wick needs replacing. It's no wonder why these things are still a mainstay with many smokers after many decades.

Works very well. More dependable than any butane lighter I have used

Lights much more uniformly than a Bic lighter, definitely better in in a windy situation. No noticeable fuel smell or flavor imparted to the tobacco. One of the smartest items I've ever purchased.

Works great, doesn't go out in the breeze, pipe is easy to light.

Excellent

I've had this zippo for 3 weeks, in that time of light use, the lid and hinge have become loose. More loose than the other zippo I have used since 2000. This will be going to Zippo for repair.

I fish and enjoy a pipe while doing so. So often, the wind is such that matches and normal lighters are useless. The Zippo pipe lighter lights in wind and other adverse conditions that leave other lighters mere spark makers. I have read the negative reviews and would invite those folks to join me in a 20 knot wind - I will be the one smoking my pipe!

Works as advertised, wonder why I did not get it sooner...

Great!

Reviewing a Zippo is like reviewing McDonald's french fries. Everybody knows what they are about, everybody has used one. The only different on this one is it's a pipe lighter, which like all Zippo's does exactly what you ask of it, but on it's side. If you like the look of this one, get it. It's a great classic piece of made in USA.

This lighter works great and it is a must have for pipe enthusiast!

I guess I am a sucker. I thought this actually had wood grain on it. Instead it is a nicely placed sticker.

Time honored design and workmanship. This lighter is perfect for outdoor smoking when you can't really get out if the wind. Won't blow out easily.

they are great

i think the pipe lighter is great

Awesome

I love it.

Been using Kippos for 30 years. Never had a problem. They are tough durable and burn in the wind. The pipe lighter wont burn the rim of your pipe. Thanks P&C for fast delivery and great service!

As a former cigarette smoker who loved Zippo lighters, I love being able to use a Zippo again though most people are right that it can impart the taste of lighter fluid to the first few puffs of any bowl.

I love my Zippo pipe lighter. It is the best I have ever used.

The lighter is sleek and cool, however, if you're not smoking a full bowl you have to draw pretty hard to get the flame to the tobacco. I still like it though.

A nice pipe lighter, works good indoors or out. It's a Zippo can't go wrong buying one. I have used them for years, can not beat the build, they are built like tanks.

I've tried name brand butane lighters from various manufacturers over the years. Often they wear out or are so finicky you finally look for another solution. Well, the Zippo is the best pipe lighter out there. It lights in wind and rain. It really doesn't matter. No more stuck jets or poor quality butane. You can even find parts readily. For me, no more butane. Its Zippo all the way!

I don't go out-side without it. It always works!

It’s a good lighter when it’s breezy but it’s small for my hand and I don’t care for the petroleum smell/taste when used to light a pipe.

Great for outdoor smokes or as a back up, i always have x2 avaialble, not an IM Corona or pipe DuPont thaqts for sure, for what it is is great at a great price, but simply not as nice as the nicer lighters, form or function. For outdoors with slight or greater breeze a must have. Worked flawlessy.

Just what I was looking for. Service and response, delivery time and selection is always impressive! Very satisfied customer I am! Thanks.

Feels good in the hand does what it supposed to.

great lighter does what it is supposed to, light pipes. The texture of the lighter is great feels solid in the hand and is priced right. The best part of lighter is that the inserts can be changed out to accommodate a standard insert for other uses or for cigars.

When I began smoking a pipe in 1966, I used a Zippo that my grandfather gave to me. I lost my Zippo in 1986. I decided I would try to find a fancy pipe lighter to replace my trusty Zippo. I have tried hundreds of butane lighters, sampled from many different dealers, brands and prices, and I have yet to find a lighter that worked as well, and lasted as long, as that World War II vintage Zippo. I have received my new Zippo pipe lighter from Pipes and Cigars and my days of searching for a pipe lighter is over. You cannot go wrong with a Zippo.

I had high hopes for using a Zippo again. I had used one for years, when I smoked cigarettes and enjoyed the simple design and ease of use of a Zippo. Was very dismayed when using one for a pipe. The after taste of the fuel lasted throughout the whole bowl. I definitely am considering one of the butane inserts for this instead.

Being a teacher, I have to smoke outside. Being the northeast in winter means winds all the time. This lighter makes lighting my pipe easy. ypical Zippo quality. Always lights on the first try. Was using cheap Bic lighters which would burn my thumb from time to time. Not any more. This is a great lighter at a reasonable cost and the little pipe logo is cute

Works very well. And arrived in a timely manner

Required a bit of wick adjustment, not a big deal. As with every one of the many Zippo lighters I have ever owned - I believe the first was in 1961 - the wick is set high before leaving the factory; too high for me although others might not agree. Having said that this is a well designed, efficient and extremely handsome accessory. I would definitely buy another with confidence for myself or as a gift for someone else. Well done, Zip! You've gone and done it again!

LOVE IT!!! Thank you

Great pipes, lighter, and Tabasco.

Best lighter ever. I hope I don’t lose this one like the last one I bought.

Zippo quality, nice size, and excellent lighter for my pipes.

Works flawlessly every time! Should have bought this one first.

Nice ... Operates to satisfaction ... No cons

I had a fancy piezoelectric lighter from another manufacturer, it worked for about a year. Zippos always work, last forever, and are a comfortable shape in the hand and the pocket. I transferred the pipe insert into the case of a Ziippo I gave to my father 50 years ago.

I've had one for 2 and half years. Works wonderfully and does not effect the tobacco's taste. I would reccomend to anyone.

My father has an evee-expanding colection of pipes but very few pipe lighters, so I bought this recently for his birthday. He loves it and is excited for the possibility of beginning a new collection with them.

In typical Zippo fashion, this lighter does exactly what it's supposed to do, and quite well I might add. I've always been a Zippo fan, so my enthusiasm may be a bit skewed in favor of the brand, but I'm totally pleased with the pipe version of this lighter 0- it works just the way 'regular' Zippo lighters work and the case has lots of surface area for an engraving or personalization. Very reliable and effective lighter!
