I have seen it advertised and I was looking at it at Big Smoke and it was really nice looking. Has anyone used this lighter? What is your thoughts on it?
 
Hello Bosin mate , the Blu is a Flint fired butane lighter, one of the best lighters I have ever had, I didnt like the cost of 50 bucks, I like the blazer insert for my zippo case a lot better, but the blu holds more gas than the insert, Enjoy, Vince ( retired Stu burner, USS Hermatage, USS Holisdayburg)
 
Hey vince. Thanks for the reply. I will have to get one now. I am actually a Personnelman. I just couldn't find a picture of that patch so I just used that one. 8)

HEY Im not that old, yea I did serve on the Main, but not on the Constitution ! hahahaha
I do credit my long life to red meat, cigars & coffee & scotch, along with a wife who putsd up with all my BS & cigars as long as I dont smoke in the house, thats why I have the Qtr.Deck, my smoking room, , I did get a little time in there last evening, listened to a little Jazz on the CD player, smoked a fine old contraband #2 , sipped a little Decafe espresso & finished the last of the laugavulin
we had an ice storm blow through & i am getting ready to head to the cigar shop, the wife has been outside cleaning off the car & drive way, Bless her little heart, so all I need to do is get in the car fire up an h Upman Cabnet corona & drive my formerly fat @$$ to the shop for more coffee, scotch & cigars, dammmmmm & I get paid to do this , , what a WONDERFUL country, , I collect my pention from the Navy, get paid at the shop, smoke, drink & get to Bull$hit with the customers & sales people, , dammmmmm why did I waite so long to get a job like this , I should have retired long ago, , Youth is wasted on the young, , Now that I am a Grandfather & have a touch of arthritus , I have triouble getting up & down the seats in the statium, gott to get there early to get a low level seat to watch the grandson play scoccer, & when the other one is playiong Piano I need to get an isle seat to let my tired old legs stick out in the asile, , BUT there is nothing better in the world than that, seeing the boys become young men, & seeing my pain in the ass daughter graduate Magna Cum Laud with High honors was a real treat, , the first degree cost me a fair amount but this one was all on her , , sdo I guess I did my job raising my family & providing a "stable " home hahahahaha , yea she is just as wacked out as her father hahahaha
well its off to the shop, I need to fill my body with cafine, nicotene & alchyhall , & sober up before I come back home hahaha , Enjoy, Vince
 
dammmm it was a tuff night at the shop & I got a realllllllly nice doe with the car on the way home, dammmmmmm, good thing I was driving the wifes car ! hahahaha , about all I was able to salvage from this fat old doe was one back strap, , Next time, No brakes just hit the gas & mow the SOB down ! , more fur on the catalic converter than on the bumper, & dammmm it STINKS when it burns ! , who wants some ground meat?
