i know it weighs twice what a regular zippo weighs
This one was my grandads it's really old not sure when it was made. I carry it every day, haven't smoked in 5+ years but I just can't seem to kick the habit of carrying it. I swear it made smokes taste better. Now it's only the occasional cigar and maybe setting some leaves on fire in the yard. I guess it just makes me feel good to carry something my grandad carried everyday. It makes me think of him daily.
I recently saw a similar thread on another forum. It brought back many "red leg" memories. The disposable's have no character.
I had an old 1960's era Ronson Typhoon that I carried for many years. I quit smoking just after the blizzard in 93'. Near coughed up a lung shoveling snow so I could get to the store for more cigarettes.
I eventually stopped carrying a lighter and don't have a clue as to where the ole Ronnie is now.

send it back to Zippo, they will fix it free...lifetime garuntee exept for the finish on them. I have about 10 of them. All the hinges got loose so I packed them all off to Zippo, they came back like new with new innards.
