So I just figured this out. I am not surprised if you all have been ahead of me lol. When lighting my pipes in wind or wind bursts I have found that my Zippo when I tilt it sideways to light my pipe tends to allow the wind to blow the flame towards my fingers. But without thinking I changed how I hold it today and grabbed the top to save my fingers and went duh, that is too simple. Holding the cap instead of the body of the Zippo put my fingers ahead of the flame and safe. May not be describing this right, but blew my mind how simple it was! If need be I will take a picture for you all.
