"Mr. W, you just have to be patient. It just takes a little time for kids to realize that dads also appreciate some TLC (not just mom). To think on the positive side, they might be too busy juggling their jobs, or coming fresh out of school with an…"

"I consulted with my mom about the lighter and she turned down the idea (It was mainly due to my dad trying to quit smoking). So I was on the path to getting a leather belt, but there was this piece of footwear that really caught my eye. I ended up…"

"As my birthday is coming up (49) it's been on my mind as my daughters asked me. A belt is a great idea, and you can't go wrong with brushed chrome."

"You can't get a lighter if you're under 18?  Wow.  What have we come to. It's hard to know what your father likes.  I'm 49.  I would want books off my Amazon list."

"Thanks for the comments gentlemen! My dad never really wears anything with brass accents, so I'm leaning towards the brushed chrome finish."

"Zippo offers a brushed brass vintage model. Add a brief engraved message and you would have a gift any father would treasure."

"If you're thinking about a lighter then get him a Zippo. Surely you can find someone who can buy it for you (assuming you can't find a store who'll sell you one)."

Dad's 47th Birthday

Salutations to all! I'm having trouble deciding on what to get for my Dad for his 47th birthday. I was thinking about a lighter, but I'm not 18 yet. Because of this hindrance, I'm heading onto the path of buying him a fine leather belt. Also should I include a nice little note with his present? Any gift suggestions (purchasable offline) would be taken into consideration.Regards,AnthonySee More
