The Nimrod Pipe lighter vs Zippo pipe lighter.

[@SirynD]

Thanks for showing one actually working. My Daddy was a pipe smoker, and would have been 94. I inherited his 200+ lighter collection. That includes 4 Nimrod pipes, and two as a machinist he made himself. Nimrods were his favorites, Zippo being second. One thing though. He never lit it the way you did. All he did was open the tube, and spark the wheel. Then hold it over his pipe and draw from it. Quite easy. I watched him many a day, come home from work, and have this in his regimen to relax. Look forward to seeing your other videos.

Siryn Dolphinsong Thank you for the feedback. I wish you and you family a merry Christmas.

[@upstatetyler2380]

Had no idea what it was for brand. Thank you. I have one. Friend gave it to me 20 years ago. He died young and this has sentimental value

[@MontyPiper]

I had a Nimrod about 40 years ago. just bought a reproduction, made in China, made of brass and very good quality. Found it on Amazon while browsing through the pipe lighters.

[@thingblaze5754]

bugmandmj Interesting. What can I search for to find it on Amazon?

[@MontyPiper]

ThingBlaze I put “pipe lighter” in the search box. Scrolled through to about the 14th or 15th page.

I have owned two Nimrod Pipe Lighters, and kept track of them for about ten years apiece. They were the best! A few years ago, I bought a clone that was made in China. It had a compass built in to it, but the wick was poor. I loved the original Nimrod, and wish I had stockpiled them. The only drawback of the original was that if you spun the wheel in the wrong direction, the lighter would jam. Then, you had to take out the flint and install it again. This was a great problem because my friends would ask to play with the lighter, and jam it every time. Even if if you instructed them about the wheel, they seemed to jam it every time. Still, I long for another original Nimrod Pipe Lighter.

[@devinjensen1483]

Paul Noblin pretty cool little lighters 👌🏾

[@mystictrain309]

@ Let me tell you a tip!!! You can store one or two flints in the fuel compartment. It doesn't matter if your flints get wet with lighter fluid. Also, be sure to fill your lighter with fuel often. This will prolong the life of the wick. I am happy for you. Cheers... Paul.

@@mystictrain309 even the wick is the original one

Thanks for sharing

[@DellaStreet123]

I guess this is a Brylon pipe -- a real meerschaum pipe would probably not survive being tapped with a lighter.

[@fionnmcbride3424]

Please start making videos again. Your channel is great.

[@flashgordon6238]

I have three Nimrods and lots of Zippos. Great design on the Nimrod but they dry out quickly compared to Zippo.

[@ognjenculjkovic665]

I have a gold plated zippo from 1989., what do you think, for how much i can sell it?

[@Tensai0]

Hei! kan du gi meg noen gode nettbutiker som seller pipe tobakk? msorensen.no er dyrt. P.S. det må ikke være inn i Norge, så lenge det billig så er det greit! takk

[@kingofenigma9678]

Where ya been?

[@KevinTwiner]

Very nice video! Enjoyed your time

[@dadsongs]

Does anyone know where I can get a flint for one of these? I think the standard Zippo flint is too small.

[@thingblaze5754]

Zippo flint works great. That's what I use in this lighter.

[@dadsongs]

@@thingblaze5754: I'll give it a try.

[@thingblaze5754]

@@dadsongs Do that. It works 👍

[@upstatetyler2380]

I wonder what there worth? Not that I would ever sell mine but curious of the value

[@TheBootyWrangler]

$40-60

[@walkeristhebaum2078]

amazing

[@pimpsk8er3702]

one you can light with one hand, zippo- the other needs two hands.

[@mikepedersen9520]

Nice lol resin meerchaum. I think I ordered the same one.....4.99 us dollars. Got a nimrod on Ebay also.

[@danielericson3462]

Can you please make a video with all your lighters? Mine it's not like yours, I only have 3 real ZIPPOs and 10 others!😓😭

[@zoltanbodnar9721]

[@cleaner660]

TheAddRevenue Channel Yeah it does not matter how much fuel i put in it still dont work

[@TheChaseboutte76]

Omega, Change you wick.

[@mazharpathan887]

Which fuel will come in Nimrod pipe lighter? Plzzzz reply anyone

[@thingblaze5754]

You have to use Zippo lighter fuel or equal.

[@mazharpathan887]

@@thingblaze5754 The price of zippo fuel is very high

[@asaandrews3372]

​@mazharpathan887 you can use gas but it'd kinda volatile and not very clean burning

[@finnknudsen4256]

so cool

[@thingblaze5754]

+Finn Knudsen Yupp.... Pretty nice lighter =)

[@goochelaarjasper2978]

Do you smoke?

zippo noway want to be my friend

[@ottovonostrovo1486]

There is a reproduction of the Nimrod made in Korea Called the FGT Sportsman "kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4bHomCLh8aBh8U". The original I have in its original package is "leatherette" wrapped on one end. It works well enough although flints and fuel aren't as easy to find nor as cheap as they once were. In the old days, I had a Coleman Stove so I just used naphtha to fill it. Thanks for the video made me fill mine up and try it again but I gave up smoking (including pipe) about 15 years ago.

[@thingblaze5754]

otto Vonostrovo Hello. I knew about the reproduction, but can't find it for sale any where. I have 1 original nimrod new in the box, plus a couple wary nice used ones. But thanks for the feedback.

[@ottovonostrovo1486]

Thanks for teaching me how to use it. I.e. to light it; I never knew!

[@LeoStarRS]

Hi you can give mi a 1 zippo pls

[@unknownyoutuber7771]

You spent very little time on the ZIPPO. Most of this video was about the NIMROD, where you bought it, and how many you bought. Not much of a comparison.

[@AR_rider-06]

I'm a big fan can you please send me a zippo

[@thingblaze5754]

+Mabb Art Sorry mate.

[@AR_rider-06]

It's ok you have a good collection
