Zippo Blu Revisited

The discussion on this NG piqued my interest in this product. I found the "Mesmerized" version on Amazon for $34.33, over $30 off the retail price, so I took the plunge.

It is a neat little lighter. Smaller then I expected and solidly built. Takes a little getting used to as one must hold down the spring-loaded flint wheel for a second or two before striking it. I guess this is necessary to get the fuel flowing.

I was at first concerned about the size of the flame but it gives off sufficient heat above the visible flame to light a stogie.

I am very satisfied with it and would recommend it to anyone wanting an attractive, cool little Zippo to keep in their pocket or purse.
