Greetings!

Now, bragging - the day before yesterday came this Zippo from Japan :)

I'm not a collector (I hope), I'm just flicking her. Visually, it is not made of brass with a coating, and seems to be solid steel. The package for the American presence was different bag with a hologram, and of characters on paper.

By the way, do not tell me why Japanese Zippo much more expensive North American? Case in limited edition?

Pricing you guessed it. The point lies in the fact that "Japanese women" is almost hendmeyd, that is from Bradford go "blank disc", and already in place they are put original engravings, drawings, pasted items. Got very beautiful little things (in the beauty of the Japanese understand), just for the beauty and you pay extra.

Gorynych5,

Thanks for the Old. In principle, the cost of "Japanese women" in Japan is comparable to the cost of "American" in Russia. But for 75 bucks a familiar Zippo - a little crazy :) Well, funny thing is, if you do not lose ...

About steel, I probably got a little excited - not the magnets casing. From inside the matte gray - usually in chrome (nickel?) Brass inside translucent yellow. Feels in the hand is different from the American Hi Polished Chrome. There were also magnityaschiesya "American", and brass.

Insert steel, attracted by a magnet. Years, inserts and envelope do not match% 0 in 2011 and 2012, but I think that's okay. Lighter 100% real ...

Japa processing could "sprayed" and on the inside of the body, because brass is not visible. Well, the difference in age is not discussed))))
