Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

This is the 1st non-Zippo lighter I have ever purchased as I collect Zippos. I was convinced to expand my collection to Lighters in general after having seen this. The artwork is spectacular! The finish is unlike any in my collection & somehow looks like stone and metal at the same time. The artwork is elegant and strong. It is mechanically sound. The packaging is unique & becomes part of it's collectability. It was well protected during shipping & arrived in perfect condition. The only regret is that it was advertised in such a way that I was unaware that there was a matching pocket watch. Had I known of this I could have purchased the watch for $29 & been able to purchase the lighter for only $10. I was not made aware of this until after I'd already purchased and received the lighter. Amazon no longer provides a Customer Service Phone #, so there is no way for me to contact them to try to remedy the situation. This is a severe disappointment as I would LOVE to buy the pocket watch, but to do so now would cost me an additional $20 for the set.
Very nice! Purchased this as a Birthday gift for my fiancé. He loves it! People are always commenting on it and asking him where he found it. The picture does not even begin to do justice to how nice it really is. The colors are bright and the rest of the case has a really cool kind of burnished effect. Best of all the color is holding up spectacularly. On other lighters the color sometimes chips, flakes, cracks or wears off. It's been three months of daily use and banging around in his pockets and it still looks like the day he got it. It came in a really nice tin as well. Since he doesn't use it for the lighter, he's got it in the car with spare change in it which is handy. Very happy with my purchase.
It is not worthy as it is priced. In product description there is no wording about where it is made, and I have seen that it is made in china. If buying a zippo from amazon.com and seeing "made in China" at the bottom of zippo does not disturb you, go ahead.
The outer shell is beautiful and I highly recommend it if you like Celtic design. The lighter insert that comes with it is just okay. Mine had a flaky wick and flint so I ended up replacing the insert. Also no lighter fluid is included, and the instructions for filling it are confusing, so if you've never filled a Zippo lighter before get some help.
For the price of this lighter you can't beat it. Good quality, the only downside I would note is that via the picture it looks like a brass color background and it's actually a "silver" color. But for the price it simply cannot be beat. Look out Zippo even though most of your sales now are via the "collectors" you have some competition for the other ones who buys zippo's. I say to the other 2nd class citizens that smoke, try it you'll like it." For those old enough to remember that advertising slogan you're older than dirt just like me :)
I bought this solely for the case, and was extremely pleased. The picture does't do the case justice. It's a distressed brass finish and the design is a shallow engraving that feels good in the fingers. I had fully intended on replacing the insert, but although it's made in China, it appears and functions exactly like every other Zippo I've ever had. Have no idea if the insert will last, but is looks as if it would take refill flints and wicks like a regular Zippo. But even if the insert falls apart tomorrow, I'm well pleased with the case.
