Description

Personalised Zippo Lighter – Matt Black 218

Your original Zippo can be engraved with any badge/logo to the main body and also some text or message to the top.

For a small additional fee, we can also engrave the rear.

We use a Fibre Laser engraving machine to engrave our lighters. The laser removes the paint and etches the metal underneath. The result is a beautiful colour contrast between the coloured paint of the lighter and the metal colour of the lighter.

All Zippos come in the Zippo black box as standard, or you can upgrade to a premium gift box as seen in the photos for an additional fee.

Why Choose a Personalised Zippo Lighter?

A personalised Zippo Lighter is one of the most iconic and enduring gifts you can give. Zippo has been making windproof lighters in Bradford, Pennsylvania since 1932, and every single one comes with a lifetime guarantee — if it ever breaks, Zippo will repair or replace it, no questions asked. When you add custom military engraving to that already outstanding product, the result is a truly personal and lasting gift that can be passed down through generations. Whether you want a regimental cap badge, a family crest, a unit insignia, or a personal message, our laser engraving produces crisp, beautiful results every time.

The Engraving Process

We use a professional fibre laser engraving machine to personalise every Zippo Lighter. Unlike traditional rotary engraving, laser engraving produces extremely fine detail with sharp, clean lines — perfect for intricate regimental badges and military crests. The laser carefully removes the matt black paint from the lighter body, revealing the bright, polished metal underneath. This creates a striking two-tone effect that makes your chosen design stand out beautifully. The result is a permanent engraving that will not fade or wear off over time, unlike printed or pad-printed designs.

Personalisation Options

Each Zippo Lighter can be personalised with your choice of badge or logo on the main body. We can also engrave text or a personal message, and for a small additional fee, we can engrave the rear of the lighter as well. This is a popular option for adding a dedication such as a name and service dates, a regimental motto, or a meaningful quote. Please supply your requirements in the notes at checkout, and we will be in touch to confirm the design before engraving. High resolution images of badges are always welcome and will help us achieve the best possible result.

Presentation and Gifting

This engraved Zippo Lighter arrives in the standard Zippo black presentation box as standard, or you can upgrade to a premium gift box for a small additional charge. The premium gift box is a popular choice for birthday gifts, retirement presents, and commemorative occasions. It makes the unboxing experience feel special and is ideal if you are giving this as a gift directly. Both options look impressive, but the premium box gives that extra touch of class that makes a real difference when presenting a gift to someone special.

Who Is This Gift For?

A personalised matt black Zippo Lighter makes an excellent gift for military personnel, veterans, collectors, and anyone who appreciates quality craftsmanship. It is a popular choice for retirement gifts, promotions, tour of duty farewell gifts, and memorial presents. The matt black finish gives it a sleek, tactical look that appeals particularly to those with a military background. With so many personalisation options available, you can create something genuinely unique that means the world to the person receiving it. Order yours today and let us help you create the perfect personalised military gift.
