Lighters- Which sort?

[crashdive123]

Damn, I never experienced Don Shipley being one of the reserves that we would call to the forefront if things went bad when the boys I guided into trouble needed a helping hand. But Y'all poke the Old Frog as much as Ya like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F73TrMcdaCk

My gosh, name dropping and all Y'all know. So let's try hand picked by Marcinko for the Black Squadron, and never a member of a SEAL TEAM or even qualified as a NEC 5326. So since you haven't, but yet you think your qualified to judge, now how many of Y'all "Know it All's" have an invitation to the next Naval Special Warfare Association gathering?

So I'd like to hear more of Y'all's experiences, but I'd rather hear from those of Y'all that "Have Been There and Done That, wearing the Tee Shirt" than from those of Y'all that never even dared to attempt the experience and would blindly cast dispersion's on those that didn't ring the bell. Rant Over, we can pass class numbers on a more secure network if I ruffled your feathers.

My comments were about Don Shipley, not you. Contrary to how you may feel, not every comment about the military is about you. There - now my rant is over.

Man. Talk about getting feathers ruffled. Perhaps a nice hot bath and some cocoa would help. Group hug?

Perhaps it is best to move the stolen valor poser conversation/debate to a different thread. I started Inky Darkness, so that's perhaps a better spot.

That's precisely the way I look at it and have practiced for many, many years. That is why I posted the picture of how I "run" my Zippo.

As they say, "Lot's of ways to skin a cat." The Zippo and Bic are my ways.

Yeah, but that burnt hair smell is atrocious!

My choice also. Stay away from the peanut lighter, tiny and cute but worthless outside, will not work with the mildest breeze.

Then quit blowing on your BIC, and your hair wont get burnt!

One brand of lighter I have heard of is a French brand called Djeep. It has good reviews but I have not seen any locally. Do people know about these?

Yes I do, I had one and it was the best lighter I ever owned, but like everything else, you buy one use it for a while and then they are gone forever, well for a while, then I did a search on them and found them at Amazon but for the priced they are asking you can buy a whole lot of Bic lighters at Walmart and who knows the new Djeep may be Chinese copies.
