Zippo Joker Lighter, Black Matte with Bronze Laser Engraving (29632)

The Zippo 29632 Joker is a windproof, refillable pocket lighter that pairs Zippo’s all-metal Classic case with a striking laser-engraved design: a grinning skeleton joker in a top hat, tipping his brim. The black matte coating is laser-engraved away to reveal the bronze tone underneath, so the joker reads in warm metallic relief against a flat, matte black body. It stands 2.25 inches tall, weighs roughly 0.18 lb, snaps shut with the unmistakable Zippo click, and arrives in a gift box. Here is what to know before you carry one.

The joker who tips his hat

The artwork on the 29632 is a full-face skeleton joker dressed in a suit and top hat, caught mid-salute as he tips his brim. Skull and joker motifs are among the most collected themes in the Zippo lineup because they read as equal parts playful and rebellious, and this one earns its detail from the process rather than printed ink. The design is created by laser engraving: a focused laser burns away the black matte coating to expose the bronze-toned metal beneath, so the figure is part of the case itself instead of a sticker or paint layer that can rub off. The result is a high-contrast piece that looks at home in a pocket, on a shelf, or in a collection.

Windproof, refillable, built to last

Every genuine Zippo windproof lighter is engineered to stay lit where a disposable would blow out, thanks to the chimney design that shields the flame. The 29632 is built on the standard Classic case in all metal, which is why it closes with that signature click and feels solid in the hand. It is refillable for life: instead of tossing it when the fuel runs low, you top it off and keep going. It is also covered by Zippo’s lifetime guarantee, summed up in the brand’s own promise that it works or Zippo fixes it free. To be clear about how that works: El Paso Smoke Shops sells you the lighter, and Zippo honors the guarantee. If the lighter mechanism ever fails, you send it to Zippo and they repair it free under that guarantee.

Fueling and caring for your Zippo

Like all Zippo windproof lighters, the 29632 ships empty, so you will fill it before the first light. It runs best on Zippo premium lighter fluid, which is formulated for clean, quick lighting in these cases. To refill, lift the insert out of the case, raise the felt pad to reach the packing material, and slowly saturate it, stopping the moment the fluid reaches the top of the packing or starts to change color. Do not overfill, since an overfilled lighter can leak. A full Zippo lasts up to about two weeks with regular use, and the fluid slowly evaporates even when idle, so keep the lid closed and top it off before you head out. Over time the two consumable parts are simple to service: keep replacement flints on hand for reliable sparks, and swap in a replacement wick once the old one darkens and shortens.

A gift-ready pocket piece

The 29632 arrives in a Zippo gift box, which makes it an easy hand-off for a birthday, holiday, or anyone who appreciates skull-and-joker artwork. Because the design is engraved into the case rather than printed, it holds up to everyday carry, and the lifetime guarantee means it is meant to be used, not just displayed.
