Turns out even the Grim Reaper knows how to take a break—and when he does, he hits the waves. The Zippo Reaper Surfer Street Chrome Lighter brings a touch of dark humor and coastal cool to your collection, featuring a full-color graphic of the Reaper himself catching a wave with style. It’s a lighter that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and that’s exactly what makes it such a standout.
Printed in vibrant detail on Zippo’s Street Chrome finish, the design has a slightly weathered look that pairs perfectly with the rebellious, offbeat energy of the image. With his cloak blowing in the ocean breeze and scythe in hand, the Reaper carves through the surf on a longboard like a pro. It’s the kind of scene that makes you smile while still showing off Zippo’s artistic edge and sharp printing technique. Now we know what he does in his spare time.
The Street Chrome finish adds a rugged, worn-in texture that makes this lighter feel like it’s been on a few adventures already. It’s durable, compact, and pocket-ready, measuring 2.25 inches tall and weighing in at 2 ounces. The brushed, scratch-hiding surface only gets better with use, developing its own character as it ages. Whether you’re at the beach, the bonfire, or just hanging with friends, this lighter fits right in.
True to Zippo’s reputation, the Reaper Surfer model is proudly made in the USA and built to last. It’s constructed from all-metal components for strength and reliability, and it features the brand’s iconic windproof flame. That means you can count on it to fire up no matter the weather, whether you’re facing ocean gusts or mountain breezes. It’s also refillable, so it’s not just a fun novelty—it’s a practical piece of gear you can use for years to come.
Backed by Zippo’s lifetime guarantee, this lighter works—or they’ll fix it. That’s the kind of no-nonsense reliability that Zippo fans have come to expect. It’s not just about the design, though the design is definitely a conversation-starter. It’s about performance, longevity, and that unmistakable Zippo click that never goes out of style.
