  1. I had one of these pipelighters in college (back in the 80s). Not sure if it was the same manufacturer — but it looks exactly the same. It worked pretty well — but if you smoked both cigarrettes and pipes, you were better off with the more flexible zippo.

    F.G.T. recently brought back the lighter that was known as the Nimrod. Now called the F.G.T. Sportsman, this popular pipe lighter uses standard lighter fluid. It is small — about the size and shape of a roll of Lifesavers™ — and retails for $24. This was my first pipe lighter, more than 25 years ago. Very dependable, it now comes with a compass.

  6. Actually, I just wanted to know if there was a way to identify when a specific Nimrod was manufactered. Any ideas?
