LZ, I saw a few pictures on your website (pictures below)
They should be fake, real ZIPPO, the ZIPPO on the bottom of the shell, the I letter is the flame logo ?, and there is an R logo in a small circle in the upper right corner of the real ZIPPO. It is not seen in the pictures. There is only a row of BRADFORD, PA. . No.
In addition, in the second picture on your website, there is a small gap in the real ZIPPO. Yours does not have one
LZ, teach you how to distinguish the real from the fake: I hope it will be helpful to you Helpful
1. Packaging: Real machine (product imported to mainland China through Hong Kong Biji Company) Zippo's packaging is exquisitely made. There are four common packagings, one is the cheapest ABS plastic box (new plastic box packaging has been launched, which looks more beautiful, but it seems not as convenient as before. Sometimes it takes a long time to open, which is annoying). The second is a paper box with a black upper cover and a light yellow bottom cover, the third is an iron box, and the fourth is a blue velvet box. 2. Appearance: The real machine has a beautiful appearance, and generally has no blemishes on the surface. The rivets at the cam are white, and the flint holder under the spark wheel is yellow. The inner diameter of the top of the flint tube at the lower end of the spark wheel is equivalent to the diameter of the genuine zippo flint, so after placing the genuine flint, move the spark wheel left and right. , you will find that the flint will not move around very much in the flint tube, and the curvature of the upper cover of the genuine product is relatively small; the liner of the fake machine is often faked with the liner of a ready-made domestic machine. Generally, the sparkler and the The rivets on the cam are yellow. Of course, there are also white rivets that seem to be rare. The rivets on the spark wheel and cam on the inner tank of Hong Kong Mingwei and new double guns are white. Everyone should pay attention to fake sparks. The flint holder under the wheel is mostly white, but now the second-generation new cotton oil lighter launched by a certain domestic cotton oil lighter has also changed this position to the same yellow as zippo. The top of the flint tube at the lower end of the lighter wheel The inner diameter is relatively large and is not quite the same as the genuine zippo flint, so after putting in the genuine flint, turn the spark wheel left and right, you will find that the flint moves around violently in the flint tube, and the curvature of the upper cover of the fake zippo shell is larger than Really bigger. The hinge of the real machine is two wide and three narrow. The conventional hinge has five sections. The first, third, and fifth sections are relatively narrow, and the second and fourth sections are relatively wide. 3. Feel: The feel of real Zippo is generally relatively light, because Zippo is made of special materials, which other imitations cannot achieve; fake Zippo will have a very solid feeling when held in the hand. 4. Sound: Genuine Zippo will make a very light and crisp sound when the lid is opened (except for some products). For fake zippo machines, the sound when opening the lid is generally OK, but the sound when closing the lid is muted. This is because fake zippo machines mostly use domestic inner pots. The small spring piece at the lower end of the inner pot cam of domestic cotton oil lighters is very thin, so the sound is muted. It should be smaller, and sometimes when opening and closing the fake zippo, you will find that it feels very bad and has a sticky feeling, and the opening and closing is not very smooth. 5. Lighting: When a real Zippo is lit without oil, it will feel astringent for the first time. That is because the flint is new, and the friction of the flint produces not small sparks, but clusters. Fire, this is one of the reasons why Zippo is said to ignite instantly. After refueling, the fire is basically instant, and the flame is also very stable. ?The side of the real zippo fire wheel cutting flint has two layers of stripes, upper and lower. The stripes on the upper layer are diagonal lines from the upper right to the lower left. The stripes on the lower layer are diagonal lines from the upper left to the lower right. The two lines intersect at Small diamond-shaped blocks are formed on the front of the sparkler. On the right side of the sparkler, there are thin stripes that radiate from the center to the periphery and are relatively evenly spaced. There are two types of stripes. One is a separate radial stripe. The other is two rays radiating side by side. There are two types of rays radiating side by side. One is that the two lines are very close. Sometimes if you don’t look carefully, you will think it is a thin line. The other is two lines. The lines are spaced at a certain distance but not too far apart (this is the current zippo sparkler. In the past, there were straight and twill ones, so we won’t discuss them here). Generally, fake machines also have such small thin lines, but These small details are very irregularly engraved, with different thicknesses, and are not as regular as the real machine.
? 6. Logo: There are product logos on the bottom of the real Zippo shell and on the liner. The logo on the bottom of the shell introduces the production time and other information of the product. A genuine zippo represents the month in English from a-l. Anything beyond this range is 100% fake. The bottom of a genuine zippo is marked with the word "zippo" very clearly, and the letter "i" is not a dot but a very thin zippo. The traditional flame pattern has a very clear outline of the flame, while most of the fake ones are very blurry. The bottom of the real phone has the capital bradford,pa. instead of bradford.pa. There is a clear small comma between bardford and pa, not a period. This is very important. Moreover, the four corners at the bottom of the real zippo are not right angles and have a certain arc. Fake ones usually have right angles. In addition, the genuine zippo has ZIPPO's engraved registration mark "R" is a small circle, while fake ones are usually larger. 7. Cotton pad: The real Zippo cotton pad is very thick, usually up to 0.7cm thick, and has English fonts printed on both sides, which can be seen when you open the cotton pad to refuel. Generally, imitations cannot be made (but now a domestic company that produces cotton oil lighters has also launched a new oil lighter with a very thick bottom cotton pad, which is almost as bad as zippo. Everyone should pay attention when buying). Imitation or fake The cotton pad of the machine is very thin, and the texture of the cotton pad is relatively loose, not as dense as the real machine. There is a small hole of a little more than 1mm on the cotton pad of the real machine. Some friends said that it is oiled from there, but in fact it is for storing spare flints. 8. Liner: The front and back of the inner liner of a real machine are clearly engraved with Zippo product information. Sometimes many friends say that the time engraved on the inner liner of the Zippo they bought is different from the time engraved on the bottom of the shell. Is this true? It's normal, because the inner liner and outer shell of Zippo are not produced together. In most cases, the difference is just the month. The inner side of the inner liner of the real machine is very clean and smooth, so bright that you can shine it in a mirror. The cotton balls inside are five small pieces. Or six small pieces instead of a whole imitation piece. The real machine has a small gap of about 2.5mm on the left and right sides of the flint tube, but the fake machine has none. Of course, Mingwei oil engines produced in Hong Kong are also found in these two positions, but they are not obvious and cannot be seen without careful observation. The metal piece under the sparkler of the real machine is not tightly integrated with the inner tank. There seems to be a distance of about 1mm, and the middle seems to be sealed with some kind of material. Most fake machines are tightly integrated. . At the same time, the outer edge of the inner tank at the lower part of the spark wheel has a certain curvature, and it is not straight up and down. Careful friends will also find a problem at the bottom of the inner tank, that is, the bottom of the inner tank is not flat, and it is directly below the cam position. At the bottom of the liner, there is a recessed area of ??about a few millimeters long. The bottom of the flint screw is higher than the bottom of the liner by the same height as the screw cap. 9. Cam: The cam body of the real machine is very thick and not bright, with a blackish feeling, while most of the cams of the fake machine are very bright and fresh. There seem to be two types of cams on the real machine, one is relatively complete, and the other looks like the lower end of the big head has been pinched by something. I learned from foreign websites that it seems to have been modified since 2004, and Most fake machines are complete. 10. Fire core: The fire core of the genuine zippo is very resistant to burning and generally does not turn black. After lighting the fire and closing the lid, you will rarely find any smoke when opening the lid. However, the fire core of the fake zippo is easy to burn. It is black, and it easily emits black smoke when burned. It may be due to the difference in quality between genuine and fake cotton.
LZ, you can either buy it at a specialty store, which is more expensive. You can recommend ZIPPO Light and JD.com. You can buy a better one for 295 yuan. Remember to give points next time if you ask!
