Diagonal Weave The Diagonal Weave Zippo is one of those honest, straight-up lighters that does its job without a fuss. The pattern is a neat bit of metalwork in its own right – a criss-cross satin finish that catches the light just enough to give it a sense of movement, but never strays into being flashy. It reminds me a bit of the old machine-turned pocket pieces men used to carry in the ’50s, back when everything had a bit of graft behind it and the finish was earned rather than sprayed on.

Zippo have been turning out solid lighters since 1932, and this one carries all the familiar hallmarks – the dependable windproof chimney, that unmistakable click, and the feel of cold metal that’ll outlast anything disposable. It’s the sort of lighter a tradesman, walker, or pipe chap would keep for decades. No gimmicks, just good materials and proper American manufacturing from a firm that’s never forgotten why it started.
