Here are a couple more photos

it seems to me that this is still China. Let me explain why - first, the letters in the word russia is jumping up and down. Second, Russia is written, and the design in the style of the USSR (red color and coat of arms), which I think is not correct and is not logical. Third, the price of 150 rubles and even in the transition speaks for itself. But the box of course casts doubt, and what we say, so we too could nakosyachit if this creation was the work of Russian. Honestly not really know all the manufacturers, and do not know whether the Russian lighters. Interesting to read other opinions =)

Clear: DDD I do not see these anywhere else, there's still one was exactly the same when I bought, but instead of the coat of arms was a double-headed eagle. )) The build quality is the best way of all gas kitaek have passed through my hands)) Works dosih. During his penny amount - the most it. )) What about Dupont, the sales if I would have 12,000 dollars, I would have bought myself Zippo pure gold, IMHO)))

botas, yes, nice-clicking, sales on my shirpotrebnoy)))

Vintage Dupont, of course, just Otpad! I like the very bottom! Beautiful! :)

Yes, they are pretty pointless as lighters, but damn interesting, of course :)

I recommend to go here to enjoy here: http://dupontcollector.com/

But gasoline DuPont late 1940s:

What a lovely infection :)))

Zippo is still better! Dupont person in me does not awaken any feelings. And Vladimir rightly said that as lighters are Useless (at first on a light wind from 5-6 times really, stupid flame blows off, and in the winter - all unrealistic, sort of a lighter room, but personally I hate the smoke in the room :) And this side drum at all PPC, wildly uncomfortable vesch. )))

I had a lighter Spunk this type, it is certainly better to copy that in my photos, not as "wooden" as it were, here it is:

The design is identical, just the flint is, drum bottom. Buy right now, as I remember somewhere in the region of 500-700 rubles. Then lost, man. (((There was one box.

By the way these boxes Spanky - I was pleasantly surprised, drawers are made of solid wood, very solidly made, in such a Zippo pack - it would be great!

slay

Spunk is China or Korea, but made really good quality, and are packed too. How do they do it, I wonder? When the final price in our 500 rupees. Spanky is not the way to give even the dumb, for example by making it a commemorative engraving.

the whole thing, probably, in the brand! not only in the quality. Zippo is always more expensive, despite the fact that there is a sea of ​​at least quality lighters! why sony and apple expensive asus. because ADR does substandard stuff? Well of course, this is nonsense! Sony and Apple just think they megabrendy, their products are very steep and high quality, and everything else is just crap, that's Druten loot from the people who will fill in on the well-constructed marketing moves. in general the crowd! Zippo though I would not particularly liken Sony, for example. a Zippo history is! and it is really quality! they have so many years can keep the brand, and Sony, sometimes I go to the sunset ...

There are options.

In the early 90s in Russia Popper flow pump action shotguns Mossberg. Surprisingly cheap, retail then they were worth 1.5 times cheaper than retail "there." And then the happy obaldateli "real American pump" pulled the emergency room - trunks vomited barrel, bicycle - and the fact that no one could get blown up in a bucket just hung a bucket on the barrel.

Despite the fact that the normal American Mossberg worked quite a decent.

There was all quite banal. The firm has two plants in Mexico and China. In Mexico, the defective stage rentgenkontrolya trunks allowed under the press, in China, as it turned out, their prodat anyone. But they that, in turn, sheds and courtyards collect "real Mossberg." Well, Russian merchants, self-other, prefer to buy a lot of guns that's amazingly cheap, it is not different from this if one is not to shoot.

Even funnier was with TT pistol, which poured into the meat criminal turn. Cheap, dirty. Chinese. With the characters, yes. Only the trunk is smooth to the first hundred shots.

With that, the quality of Chinese weapons in the U.S. no one could complain. There was all funny - in Pakistan have province on the border with Afghanistan, where kind skilful masters on the knee, almost one piece chisel make weapons. Just like the present. And it's very inexpensive. Well, since the prototype - the Chinese and there, sitting on the floor of the tent, the same stamp depicted.

Forged, however.

So it is with everything else - where you can get details of where that - dig in the dump of marriage, which is the most blind - and it turns Soany - looking just like Sony, so why pay more? :)

Wow, Hartman! Colleague vintagelighters.ru? very nice, thanks for the info, very interesting and informative! visit us more often, you'll be very happy!

Yes, that came to a forum, there was also interesting. :)

By the way, what is very similar to a subject I kupilv stall on Vladimir somewhere in 1994. It even worked. Then I did kannibaliziroval, valve filling out where that was needed.

Interestingly, in design, in general, that there is nothing of this to do a lighter than trudnoizgotavlivaemym. Just once someone has spent on the mold for the tank to osnastkudlya stamping body, bought a bucket valves (in China with a dozen shops make them - automatic machines are still alive from when lighters were neodnorazovymi) - and began to make such a nemudryaschy kagbe Dupont. Or just buy unnecessary equipment from Colibri.

A friend recently gave me a lighter Yibao - black lacquer, with a meter of ST Dupont not distinguish even the screws are not the screwdriver, and how it should be - with a rising "handle" as adults. Quality ispolneninya - USD 50. And honestly written Yibao High Grade Lighter, made in China.

Works as it is lighter - gas keeps lights (and where her silicon, to go then?), Stable flame height. Everything is assembled without gaps and distortions, with regular gaps in the hand nicely, no revelations of sleaze is not discerned.

In general, they do a lot of things funny: http://www.wzyibao.com/en/en_p ..... oducts.htm

Yes, sat down, looked very good indeed! Maybe it's just an optical illusion, and all looks good only on the screen, but there is a very interesting and beautiful lighters suck! It looks really expensive, about any cheapo can be no question, in my opinion.

Quality I would rate the quality of Colibri 70. That is - very bad.

hmm looks so German Zippo?)) namesake?

So, colleagues, dug at such here's a lighter. Oklo bought it 2 years ago in an underground passage for 150 rubles.

oh my god what sucks! Come on here is the crickets start to post

This is her box. Material apparently - hardboard.

So that's how it looks if you open the box.

This Tipo hermetically zadraennye "technical hatches" :) One for refueling, a different controller is hidden flames.

This is a working part. When the lighter is opened, it immediately begins to go gas, you need to spin the wheel to the side spark. Is the longest figovina postponed, there is placed a stone.

What are these lighters, Aurora? Surely we do? On the quality is very good, the metal is thick, solid, stocks on execution not. Used it for about a year, no complaints, though not very comfortable on the street, the flame goes out easily, no windshield. When you open the steel makes a lot of cliques, something resembling Zippo click. In general the Chinese do not like, but if they are - that honor and praise! :) Has anyone seen something like this / have in my collection?
