There are few things in life more iconic than a chrome Zippo lighter. Even the sound of a Zippo clicking open and sparking to life (bonus points are awarded for flair) is sure to bring back memories. Connery and Ford used one in Indiana Jones. Willis used a Zippo more than once to thwart terrorists in the Die Hard films. You can’t screw with perfection like that, which is why Zippos continue to have a lifetime warranty to this day. If you want a lighter that will get cooler with age, you can’t do better than this classic.
