    I think it's just as easy to buy a good butane lighter. You can also ensure with butane that you get a much more even burn as the gas burns powerfully in a straight line. Also, the smell that Zippo's give out is like the oil fields of Kuait!!

    I prefer to use a Zippo whenever I can. Never had any taste difference from the fluid. A Zippo is hard to use if you are outside, that's why I bought one of those cheap torch lighters ($2) works better than any expensive one. I have found that the fluid does evaporate quickly, so I bought on of these.... Zippo

    Hey CC..... I'll take you up on that challenge...... you supply the cigars and I'll bring the lighters

    i'm looking to get a zippo soon also. a stand at the mall sells them, and they will refill the fluid each time i go back. sounded like a good deal.

    I have two zippos that I use, but honestly, i prefer a pocket torch over any other alternative.
