You may be on a quest for a good lighter. The zippo lighter solid brass is made of brass on the shell and it looks like the actual lighter insert is brass too. This lighter will last a lifetime with proper maintenance. You also get a lifetime guarantee.If you don't want to use a kerosene based lighter insert there are several Zippo made inserts with butane and different flame types.I have bought several other lighters before I got this one and I regret buying anything other than a zippo.It is a classic lighter, well made, and of all the products still made in the USA most have gone under dramatic price increases over the past several years while Zippo lighters seem to be as cheap as they have always been. One of the best values in the market! I support made in USA and it is hard to find affordable products still being made in USA.In terms of finish it is brushed with a very nice brushing. The polished surfaces have some machine marks. If you want a perfect finish you may want another version. I highly recommend the solid brass version since there is no plating to wear off. That being said I have never had the chrome finish ever wear off but I just prefer solid brass.There is a copper version of this lighter which I want but is much more expensive. For the cost, the solid brass Zippo is probably the best value out there.

Purchased the "Brushed Brass With Solid Brass" version. Good quality. Even the insert appears to be brass on this version. Recommended.While I like the brass finish of the "Street Brass" version, the lacquered finish that is applied to the brass, in my opinion, detracts from the overall appeal. I returned the "Street Brass" version and kept the "Brushed Brass With Solid Brass" version.

It would get 5 stars if it didn’t have SOLID BRASS engraved on it.

Love brass color. Got this on a great deal so great value for money. Easy to use as the open and close function well. Always quality. Looks great next to some of my other EDC and knife display items. Great size.

Zippo lighters work great and look sharp. A must have.

Looks good, feels good, works good. Not much else to say since if you know Zippos, you know what to expect. I wish they could make them hold the fuel better without drying out so fast. Other than that, it's a great, iconic lighter that just looks better with time.

This is a great lighter - I was disappointed with the ‘street brass’ version I purchased elsewhere because it felt cheap and came with a thick plastic coating. This solid brass version feels much nicer, and the matching insert looks nice as well. FYI - while the case is solid brass, the insert is brass-colored but is made of steel.My only complaint is the same with all Zippos using liquid fuel - evaporation keeps this from being a perfect lighter since it only lasts a week or two before refueling.
