It was stolen. *sigh* haven't bothered to buy another since. Neat story about the survey, haha.

The Z-Plus insert by Blazer was intended to fit that case, and from what I understand, Zippo had Blazer re-word their packaging as to not mention their brand name. . I've tried the Blu a couple of times since getting it and its not a very comfortable tool to use. For whatever reason, it just seems very unnatural to use a flint wheel on a torch lighter. . Thanks for the comment -Walt I’m not sure why either.

The only Zippo I have is one my father carried for many years. Too much senntimental value to carry or use so it sits on a shelf. (Just like the other fancy lighters I buy and never carry because I'm afraid of losing. LOL!) BTW, I'll never understand why Zippo did the Blu instead of building a nice insert of their own?
