  • In this captivating video, I am thrilled to showcase two of my most cherished possessions - my favorite Zippo lighters! With utmost pride, I unveil these unique zippos bearing the names of the mighty ships I sailed on during my service in the United States Marine Corps. As a former Marine, these lighters hold immense sentimental value and serve as a constant reminder of the bravery and camaraderie I experienced.

Watch closely as I meticulously elevate this remarkable knife with a few simple techniques, enhancing its visual appeal and personalizing it in a one-of-a-kind manner.
    Join me on this journey of exploration and rediscovery as we delve into the treasured memories of my Marine Corps service, indulging in the craftsmanship of these remarkable Zippo lighters and the timeless allure of the Case XX folding hunter knife.

    This was a great video. Thanks for telling the story of the zippo you bought for your Dad. That folding hunter and sheath look so good. The leather was a nice addition.

    Did they do the laminated wood in the USA period? There might be dots on that blade but just below the frame. Some of those dotted era the dots were not visible or really hard to see. Is the pattern number light or deep stamped? I had one of those from the early 90’s with one serrated blade I believe. Cool pattern, but I always thought at least one of those blade should have been a lockback!

    I have the same Case knife, handed down from my Grandfather. It's a terrific knife, one of my favorites. I need to get a sheath like yours, because it's a load to carry in my pocket. Nice Zippos as well, real keepsakes. Semper Fi.

    Great story of Marine life on a Navy ship, glad you where able to get the Zippo when your father passed. I spent time on the USS Trenton in 1994 with a pit stop to be the last American forces (At the time) in Mogadishu Somalia. Live Long Prosper and Collect Your Own Way!

    I still have my FMF Pacific Zippo from the 1960’s. I bought mine at the PX about 1967 when I was at the Stumps. It has my name engraved on it.

    I just purchased a Case carbon folding hunter with bone covers from eBay. The newer ones don’t have the lanyard hole which I’d prefer. I’m really enjoying the channel , nothing like starting my morning with a cup of coffee and watching a couple of your videos.

    Were trying to hone in on that accent if yours. Don’t worry I have one too so I’m saying Alabama and she’s saying Louisiana. Who, if any, wins the bet?
