Roll up, roll up ... get them while they're hot!

Post by Bearbonesnorm »

I have in my possession more of these than I know what to do with or could ever use. They are brand new IMCO petrol lighters, they're still made in Austria in the same place they've always been made and have been since 1918. They have a 10 year gaurantee, if it breaks just send it to IMCO and they'll mend or replace it.

A nice feature is the removable flame, once lit you can take the burner out and use it as a candle or to light a fire, etc.
Each one weighs 35g so it shouldn't be a burden to carry ;)

If anyone wants one, paypal a fiver to stuart@forestfreeride.co.uk and I'll stick you one in the post.

Now that takes me back to my (smoking) youth. I had one just to be different, everyone else had Zippo's.

My grandad had one of those - Always wondered where it came from but he'd been in a POW camp in Austria... it was still functioning well into the 70's (unlike his lungs in the end!)

Yea, I remember mine being ultra reliable to, Zippo's always broke at the hinge plus the lighter fluid didn't evaporate out of them as quickly compared to a Zippo.
