Lighters: Zippo Pipe Lighter - Cornell & Diehl

Product Number: 001-068-0482

Though originally inspired by an early 19th-century Austrian lighter that used brass shell-casings for the main body, with an external flint and striker, the simpler and more self-contained Zippo design has become an American icon known throughout the world (along with its distinctive, opening "clink!" and smart, closing "clunk!"), and especially so by outdoorsmen and military personnel. Even with the rise in popularity of wind-proof butane torch lighters, the simple, trusty Zippo remains a favorite for those who venture into the highest altitudes and coldest climates, where the Zippo design still proves itself to be the most reliable source for life-sustaining fire.

This special-limited edition Zippo lighter was fashioned in collaboration with Cornell & Diehl, celebrating the American blending house's 30th anniversary of quality pipe tobacco production. It bears the C&D tobacco plant logo etched on the side and is fitted with an insert to assist in angled pipe lighting, specifically designed to meet the unique needs of pipe smokers.

I’ve replaced my gravity affected Old Boy with this wonderful tribute to my favorite tobacco company. I do realize that gravity can also affect this beauty but I have had experience with the Zippo guarantee. What a treasure.

foolishly I have tried several times to use the standard zippo's tank to light a pipe, having to tilt both pipe and chimney at some steep angle, with it only lighting half the bowl usually. The logic being that the small holes dotted in the metal would allow adequate flame through. I had assumed the experience would be similar with the pipe insert, so I went and bought an angled flame lighter and put this off onto a list. Boy, am I glad to have picked this up at all, but doing so sooner would've likely been appreciated by my pipes. It's nearly a different lighter in terms of performance, arguably a better design altogether. Where a zippo's stock chimney leaves me wanting a slightly more robust flame without needless fiddling, the pipe insert spits a column of opaque fire straight at the sky, unbothered by both shop fans and windy weather. As for the print, I second Al's review. The etch seems durable, and its tone can almost disappear if the lighting is warm and soft enough. I do wish the texture put onto either face of the lighter would wrap the sides and top, but that's probably the most substantial bother I could think of with this, and I'm sure the metal will wear with use to match over time. A necessity if smoking outside in any weather past a leaf rustling breeze....Read More

I was on the fence about buying this lighter. I’m glad I did. Smokingpipes has a top-notch photography department and the fact that they take wonderful pictures of every pipe is a testament to that; but the pictures of this lighter do not do justice to the quality of the logo. I suspect that the shine of the lighter proved to be a challenge for the photographer(s)....Read More
