Never used a DuPont, but those are a couple nice looking razors.

Never used one. A bit out of my budget. Will you need to modify them to use butane ?

Thanks, into razors too, took the pic together a while ago.

No, ST DuPont are butane lighters. Out of my price range as well, these were used.

I picked up this jewel about 7 months ago at a pawn shop for $20 plus tax

You got ripped off on that one. I’ll take it off your hands for what you paid so you don’t have to live with the shame of having been had.

Lol. I pointed out the little China printed on it knowning full well that it was original. The lady told me that it had been sitting for a long time and to just pay them what they were into it for. The whole thing was very much a fluke but I couldn’t get the money out of my pocket quick enough.

I have a Davidoff branded ST DuPont Ligne 2 Palladium double burner that I bought at cost 20 years ago for around $300. It's a truly excellent lighter, but I only use it around the house for fear of something happening to it. One helluva deal considering how much these go for now.

I am sure they are great lighters, but my BIC gets the job done. I do appreciate the quality and craftsmanship though.
