Old Lighters and Boxes  

I have a sudden urge to collect old lighters, these all look so amazing and elegant!

Switzerland's single claw by far! The Dandy is really neat too

Austrian is the best imo

I like the German one the best.

The German "Derby" is the winner by far, it's automatic! The Swiss "Single Claw" comes in second.

The Swiss is super cool, but the Austrian acts as a pipe match.

Love France.. it's simple yet elegant

I gotta go with the German option. I really like that lighting mechanism.

I really like that Swiss lighter.

The german one are so cool, the mechanism are unique and coolest one...Deutsche qualität 😊

The black Dunhill won my heart😌

I love the black and gold English one but the Swiss craftsmanship is to die for

The american one. Love its simplicity and yet reliability. Pretty enough for fancy bankers and tough enough for the iron workers. An everyman lighter. Edit: USA! USA!USA SCREAMING EAGLES🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Love how the old products don‘t take it too far with packeging

i love the "FireFly" lighter, it's such a great design, looks like it's art deco

For those who don’t know on the Austrian lighter “Wien” in German is Vienna, which is very easy to mix it up with “Wein” which is German for wine

Germany's Derby lighter is so efficient. Craftsmanship on that lighter was at a high level.

Austrian. Simply because if the versatility and simplicity

I like the Swiss one, followed by the American, but they couldn't be more different in design.

The Swiss one was by far the fanciest.

I adore the lil french guy, but i am so happy i found this channel, because i have been looking for this kind of content like my whole life, for real. The engineering of different lighters has always fascinated me but i could never find anyone else who ever had an interest.🎉 They are all really cool lighters .

Americas is basically that classic 1 stroke lighter that everyone thinks about when it comes to basic yet simple design.

Btw the Austrian lighter has the word “Wien” on it which is the native spelling for Vienna, Austria’s capital. The Ferris wheel is one of the icons of the city and it’s the oldest still functioning Ferris wheel in the world.

last one might win from color and artwork alone tbh

Notice how he didn't put the OP Zippo in for the American candidate, but even it MAY be outmatched by the Swiss single claw

France or Austria, definitely. I like how simply elegant the french one is, but I enjoy the big mechanism on the Austrian that's used to light it, and the fact that you can pull that section out, maybe to reach into smaller/deeper spaces

GERMANY! That lighter moves like a switch blade

The American ligther , much simpler and compact, by far🎉

Switzerland's Art Deco beauty all week long!

Firefly is beautiful....1930s?

I ALWAYS enjoy seeing the Thoren and Dunhill lighters....

I feel like the last two are too accident prone like if he was to put them in your bag and you caught the button surprise and you no longer have a bag

Idk I jus like them all. Each has its own unique style and design. Wats not to love? Unique artistic designs.

Swiss for special occasions, the US one for daily use

The Switzerland single claw lighter.🫡

The german one seems pretty dangerous to me, it looks too easy to light by itself in your pocket

germany wins, that spring loaded action is just too nice.

Austrian painter is gonna be sad after my opinion

They all.got nice details then you see the U.S one lmao😂 dull

The Thorens lighters are consistently the most beautifully engineered.

Swiss one very detailed work

the dandy is right for the pocket

Germany and Switzerland ❤

German so easy and smooth

That last one for me. Gimme half my lighter back bruh, love this channel

Switzerland's gorgeous

The Swiss always make the best lighters

Where can i get this old lighter???

Swiss my favorite for all of them

У Тебя нет советской зажигалки ,,ЛЕНИНГРАД" за 9 рублей!!! Вот это ЖИГА😊

Switzerland for sure 💖

I am so envious of your collection

The single claw is just so Cool

I feel like you live for that moment when it's someone's birthday and it's cake time and the guy lighting the candles goes "does anyone have a light?" 😂

Japanese 📸 lighter the best

I love the Swiss lighter.

The last one but I can probably only afford the American one...but haven't looked up prices yet....just guessing

I NEED HELP! I’m looking to start a collection of not particularly nice or big name brand lighters. So today I bought three old zippo style lighters for pretty cheap. And I just need to know where to start, I’m going to re pack them and replace the wick. But I’m having trouble getting the wheel to spin on one of the three. What should I do to diagnose/fix it??

I would edc the firefly

Firefly seems so handy

I love this channel because it doesn't resort to that TikTok AI voice, I like hearing peoples voices, especially when they're explaining things they love

Some Swiss watchmaker was like “I’m gonna design a lighter with the most precise tolerances ever.”

WTH Its Switzerland. Not only its beautiful but it was made by THORENS!?!? A turntable manufacturer!?!? They made effing lighters before the Turntables??? Or they manufactured them together???

🇨🇴 COLOMBIA-PIZPIRETA MARAVILLOSA COLECCIÓN. SERÍA INTERESANTE SABER EL ORIGEN DE ESTA AFICIÓN Y CUÁNTOS ENCENDEDORES POSEE

Started collecting Zippos about 30 years ago, affordable ones .....then picked up a few novelty lighters.... thought I had too many (maaaaybe 150), then I came across this guy. 😲

Falto México 🎉

"The Austrian candidate, it's more than just a funny face." Großartig, Riesend komisch!!! Brings to mind a common German refrain, Hitler was Austrian, Mozart was German.

The German one has multiple sensors installed in many places to tell you when to take it to a dealer to have it serviced for about a thousand Euros minimum.

Heres what I like: Swiss, German, and Austrian.... And maybe I might add a moustache to it... ( im joking).

Definitely Switzerland 🇨🇭 yes looks so cool, very fancy. Now pls, Light me Jonny🔥🚬🕶👍🏻

Nah, i feel like the one from Switzerland wins. Nice design and relatively large flame. I'd give Austria 2nd and Germany 3rd

Austria has IMCO not KARAT by Dubsky from Poland

I truly like the swiss, german and austria one.

Wow the firefly really won me over, simple, rugged, and beautiful. Didn’t expect anything to beat the first three (i’m partial to rollers) but that lighter is just beautiful. About to start shopping around for one

According to my perspective.. Austrian lighter was perfect and beautiful ❤️

I am conflicted between the German one and the one from Switzerland. Cause I am a huge fan of the safety from the Switzerland. However that satisfying click from the German one is so darn good.

vienna and Germany ❤

Look at those beautiful lighters, you light a cigarette with class, now days I light my cigarette with a plastic bic lighter... I'm speechless!

I have one of those Austrian lighters! It's got an engraved design and functions identically to the one you have here! I'd love any help identifying it if by some chance you see and respond to this comment, it's okay if not (I'm Canadian, sorry for bothering you eh?) wonderful videos!

I jonny RaZer hearby do solemnly swear that neither count chocula, fruit brute nore yummy mummy will ever be added to hit 2017 game fortnite.

I think my favorites would have to go Switzerland at number one Austrian at number two Those are my two favorites

Thorns is the best

Switzerland for the win, but I like all of them. 1)Swiss 2)English 3)German 4)American

I know your probably going to hate me for this, but when it comes to functionality, the plastic bic lighter reigns Supreme. Just one motion, and you have a flame that you can shut off simply by letting go. They are have absolutely zero elegance though. When it comes to elegance, I choose the swiss one.

Ok that last one was beautiful on the outside but SLICK on that flick and removal. Whoa didn't see that coming!

Swiss would be a nice fancy piece for going out,American is the most practical seeming and Germany I think had the smoothest action while the top right looks like it would jam regularly

I love the French and American candidates. Although I suspect I would get more use out of the Austrian candidate at I also smoke a pipe.

Switzerland wins every time. Thorens made so many iconic lighters.

I’m gonna say America. Not just because of my patriotism although that is a factor, but because the simpler something is the better.

The Dunhill or Karat for usability, but the Single Claw for aesthetic and precision.

Austria for sure

Don't ask the german lighter for whom was lighting cigarettes between 1939 and 1945

They have that awesome 20s art deco style 👌. I like personally the american Firefly. Simple and has a timeless look.

They are all georgeous. But the american and french are a little less so than the others. In my opinion of course. After looping a couple of times, the english and german lighters stand a tiny bit above the others for me. But they are all sooo sweet.

It's either England, Austria or Switzerland, but Germany is good aswell, it's just very easy to use

Could you recommend a place to buy an old lighter? it does not need to be that fancy, I'm just looking for a lighter to keep with me for a long time

That is NOT the flag of england. Please learn the difference between the UK and England. The UK is NOT england

I wanna choose The "Dandy", but I don't wanna give the French a W so I'm choosing the English one

Switzerland

The Swiss got the Watch, Toblerone ..and the best darn automatic lighters ever!
