Zippo Flints Appraisal

Replacement lighter flints

A set of two cylindrical replacement lighter flints contained within a small, transparent plastic resealable poly bag. Each flint is approximately 5mm in length and 2mm in diameter, manifesting a dark gunmetal gray or graphite-like color with a matte, slightly textured surface finish designed for friction. The flints appear to be composed of ferrocerium, a synthetic pyrophoric alloy. These components are standard for ignition in traditional flint-and-wheel lighters such as Zippo or Clipper models. The plastic baggie shows slight clouding and creasing from handling, while the flints themselves appear unused and in modern, functional condition without signs of moisture-related oxidation or crumbling. There are no visible maker's marks or branding on the flints themselves, which is typical for such consumable utilitarian hardware. The overall craftsmanship is precise and consistent with mass-produced mechanical accessories manufactured in the late 20th to early 21st century.
