The Zippo Manufacturing Company Brushed Sheet Metal Pipe Design Windproof Lighter with Pipe Insert is built for those who want utility without losing character. It takes the classic Zippo foundation and layers in a bold, industrial pipe-inspired design that looks like it’s been shaped straight from sheet metal and steelwork. With its brushed metallic finish and dimensional 3D detailing, it carries a sense of depth and structure that feels rugged, mechanical, and purpose-driven.
At its core, this is still the windproof Zippo that’s earned its reputation over decades. The all-metal construction delivers durability you can feel the moment you pick it up, while the unmistakable Zippo “click” gives it that familiar, satisfying snap every time it opens. It’s designed to work when conditions aren’t perfect, keeping a steady flame in wind and weather where lesser lighters give up.
This model includes a dedicated pipe insert, making it especially practical for pipe smokers who need a softer, angled flame and reliable ignition. The insert integrates cleanly into the design, maintaining the same tough, utilitarian feel while adding a layer of purpose-built function. It’s not just a styling exercise—it’s a working tool with a specific job in mind.
Like every Zippo lighter, it’s fully refillable for a lifetime of use. That means no throwaway parts, no short-term lifespan—just a piece of gear that’s meant to be maintained and carried for years. For best performance, genuine Zippo fuel, flints, and wicks are recommended to keep it running the way it was intended.
Made in the USA, it’s backed by Zippo’s lifetime guarantee: it works or they fix it free. That kind of commitment has made Zippo a standard in pockets, kits, and packs around the world, trusted for reliability as much as its iconic design.
Compact and solid in hand, it measures 2.25 inches in height, 0.5 inches in width, and 1.5 inches in depth, with a weight of 2.0 ounces. It disappears easily into a pocket but feels substantial when you bring it out, ready to perform whenever it’s needed. This is a lighter that blends industrial styling with proven performance, built for everyday carry and long-term use without compromise.
Available at Smoky Mountain Knife Works, a Tennessee landmark and the world’s largest knife store.
