- Just thought I should re visit a topic that I have made a video on 2 or three years back , I still honestly believe armors are the best for tricks because they can withstand a beating .

Had no idea there was such thing as a thicker zippo. Got to check them out. Would like to see a copper or brass armor one to have
They make solid brass armors , on eBay there only like 20$ or a little more
@@Javajavajav niccce , yeah there are good and silver zips too I own a few silvers but I won’t buy anymore because they keep jacking up the price on them , a shame really because there’s only 40$ or so of silver in them
I have a great story as to why you don’t need an armored zippo.
My first zippo was a classic $17.95 brushed silver one. I left it on the hood of my truck and it fell off on the road just few houses up from me. I saw it on the road a few days later and I thought it was long gone. I picked it up and noticed it had a decent little dent but still worked like a charm. I live in a busy suburb near a large city so at least 100 cars probably drove over my zippo and they just left one measly dent and it still works fine to this day. That’s why I lol’d when he said at work if you drop your lighter it may not work. Zippos are beastly.
I should’ve said would and is better at withstanding dents than a regular cause mine has come flying out my pocket with force before and when it was a regular it had a substantial dent
“Do tricks at work or something and you work at a warehouse or something. And you drop the lighter.” As someone who worked at a warehouse before, I would say there would be a problem much bigger than a dent lighter.
It was a shitty job anyway...
Great vid. Picked up a brass armor.
Not for tricks, just to collect and use though.
Thanks 👍🍂🔥💨
I recently got myself a brass armor too , I do some tricks with it
for tricks best is zoro or chief lighters
Thanks for this advice.
You are right about the Armor being a better lighter in many ways, compared to the regular one.
I went ahead and got myself the armor zippo and the tricks and instant, compared to the regular zippo tricks.
Tman has actually passed away. But glad your enjoying the armor !
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors oh no! I'm sorry to hear this!
@@jakegevorgian yeah it’s def sad. We loved him in the community. But his videos will always be here. I made customs with his face on them. Gave them away. There’s still one more left
@@Zippofanatic77outdoors that's very nice of you.
Please,Is the Brass Antique finish Zippo an "Armor" version, or it's the normal ones? I'm between the Brass Tumble finnish and the Brass Antuque finish.
They offer both a normal version and an armor , if I’m not mistaken , the thing you gotta look for is make sure the listing says armor and shows the bottom stamp it will have a shield with an A in it
i got this with my christmas money i cant wait to throw this in a horde of zombies covered in gasoline :)
Haha how did that work out ?
The Walking dead stuff
Would be sweet if they had a stainless steel case for these. Then again they may be brass to keep the heat down. 🤔
Stainless steel case would be nice. Durable too.
Nice reasoning! I'm looking into purchasing my first armor so this helped a lot! Do you happen to know if the armor cases fit the Zippo butane inserts?
Thanks!
Not sure
They do fit
It's just a thicker housing, it will hold the same inserts as any and all other zippos.
Ok, I was looking for a expensive watch or something else to burn cash. I see these zippo armors going for close to $200. What is a good price for these? The only lighter example I know of is a S.T. Dupont.
So now a days a solid silver zippo armor goes for about $233 , when I got mine they where only $150 the price always slowly increases on them ,
Sheesh, I just got a brushed chrome one for $15…
Amazon children's book: Hey Mon Cool It.
should I choose the silver amor or the gold one? Does the gold one goes black when using for a long time?
Are you talking gold plated vs solid sterling silver or silver plate Vs gold plate ? I mean a gold plated armor is about 120$ but for a little more 150$ , you can get a solid silver that will never go to brass because it’s solid silver , but both silver and gold plate if used heavily will go back to brass after years of use
Which sound good ??
The best “cling” sound ??
I like the armor sound the best
Regular zippos tend to ring out more, but the armors sound and feel more solid overall. It’s a matter of preference, but I personally equate weight and sturdiness with quality, but thats just bc I’m a very tactile feedback oriented when exploring my interests. The deep carve armors for example are a godsend if not for zippos absurd prices. The rose gold deep carve has been a dream lighter of mine for years, but I just can’t justify paying $90/
i dropped my armor zippo and the lid got an overbite. had to get it repaired lol
For hiking, edc should I bought a armor zippo?
I would advise it , cause if you drop it , won’t have a dent like a non armor would
For hiking take a Bic lighter. Zippos are terrible in survival situations. The gas evaporates.
@@joelabraham6834 this is why you mount a zippo keychain canister on your backpack and youre good to go with confidence.
@@joelabraham6834 I take a whole canister of Zippo fluid along with a wick and flints when hiking lol !
Great video!! #Zippo
I just sent in A Zippo Armor after 10 Years of use for Repair. It's Guaranteed so just let them fix it. I like Zippo Lighter Matches!
The hinges are the same on armor zippos as a regular zippos but the heavy zippos won't last long
Yeah that’s the main downside to having an armor I wish they make stronger hinges
Armor in my country too expensive, 55usd
How much did you pay for this armor zippo?
Like and support video, subscribe 🦾 love it zippo MADE IN USA ®️🇺🇸
This is good your walking into Zippo. I've not really seen tricks done with a Zippo. I'm 39 years old, when I was 13 I saw a crazy guy run past me in a crowd he said he had just put zippo fluid in his mouth and lit it. Do you have knowledge of people doing dumb stunts like that? And why would someone bother doing that?
That’s another level of stupid , even further than my mind can comprehend 😂
@@comradetman3784 Wow I was smashed last night I was throwing down beers like no tomorrow. :)
Thats not a good idea lol
@@variklane7032 Young people do all sorts of weird shit. Do you think Tman is really dead? I think its all bull shit. Like all of a sudden you get this message that Tman was found dead and its meant to be from his mum. Like sounds like shit to me. If he is really dead they should have given proof.
Please put some of light more on your video
So…he can’t…he’s dead.
so which one should i buy?
an armor if you want a more dent resistant lighter
If I just use like regular lighter no trick yada yada. Does the hinge last longer?
Yes , but if you drop it the lighter will be more damaged
@@comradetman3784 thank you, Gonna buy my first Zippo today
don't play with zippos
At least the video in focus this time
I still have issues with camera quality , I plan on getting an iPhone 11 next as an upgrade , has a better camera
Your good man just missing with u
@@JtPrince it’s true tho , I don’t like it when I’m trying to show something on screen and it won’t focus
Worst smoker. So boring.
Hi Comrade T Man, could you share your email address? I got some questions about zippo in business term.
Nah not anymore ,
