Most know the iconic Zippo name and that unique clink sound when opening or closing a Zippo. This company has a great history and it was nice to walk through the museum and look at exhibits from around the world. The store holds a variety of lighters in all types patterns, colors and styles. Customize your own if you like! Engraving while you wait too.Excellent Case brand knives are available too, dont miss their exhibit! The museum is complying with covid safety so masks are mandatory and no touching the interactive exhibits for now. Check out the cars outside too.

To start, this museum is free so you really cant complain about that much. But its really a very interesting little museum on the history of Zippo lighters and Case knives with a great store to go along with it. If youre in the area you should definitely stop in and take a look around, whether youre familiar with Zippo or not.

Figured we would check this place out and we are glad we did. First of all, Its FREE. Not too many things are free anymore so this was a major bonus. A lot of cool items for sale and lots of history lessons about lighters and knifes. A must see if you have a few hrs to burn.

The museum is such a wonderful trip through history, seen through the eyes of two American staples. It is clean, brightly lit and informative. I could have watched the kinetic sculpture for hours. The employees were all friendly and helpful.

This place was so cool. Very educational and the workers were very educated on the product they were selling. Id come here again.

This Zippo museum is LIT . this zippo museum is FIRE ! free, self guided tour helps you learn about the very cool glamor of smoking.I bought a pack of Pall Malls on the way home to commemorate PA pride and history. Closes at 5 pm.

This is a wonderful museum showing the history of both Cage knives and Zippo lighters which are still guaranteed and repaired for free for life!! There are several choices of Cage knives for purchase and Zippo lighters. You can even have a light custom made while you wait or theyll send it to you if you cant wait. Lots of fun. Informative.

Very interesting place. Glad we stopped while on vacation.

Always an amazing place. A museum about a classic piece of Americana still made in the USA.Bring in your zippo(s) when you visit and they will repair them for free too.Great gift shop too !

A very interesting and informative museum! We bought our own Zippos here. Never knew this was so rich in history, so glad we stopped and visited. I very much recommended not missing this one, it is a neat part of history. Not only Zippo Lighters but the Case Knives too. Pretty cool.

A must see piece of Americana! An impressive museum exhibition and an excellent store / gift shop. Set aside an hour to 90 minutes to do this place justice. Never had a Zippo lighter, but I have 3 of them now. Do stop by.

Lovely museum showcasing the history of the Zippo and Case companies. Very creative and informative displays throughout! I spotted Mr Civil Defense and had to share!

I always enjoy stopping in to see what new lighters have come out. I usually end up leaving with a new one for my collection. The staff is always friendly and willing to assist.

Always an interesting place to visit and learn. I love American manufacturing.

There is A LOT to see in this museum. Anything you want to know about lighters or knives youll find here. Plenty to buy in the store, too. It is a great road trip destination.

A great little museum that is very informative and interesting. The displays are well done and maintained. Theres a nice gift shop as well.

This zippo/case store is awesome. You can buy your favorite lighter, knives etc, and see some very rare and valuable things in the museum. Its great to see the history of zippo and case all in one place!

Loved it. Cant wait to go again when I have money

This is a fun and somewhat historical and somewhat quirky museum for Zippo lighters and Case knives. Worth the stop if youre in the neighborhood. And Bradford, PA makes for a great launchpoint for hiking watersports and other activities in the Allegheny National Forest.

The museum was great! Very knowledgeable. The gift shop had alot of neat products

So much fun. In these trying times families are looking for fun activities. The museum is free and the gift shop is reasonably priced and the staff was really friendly..

Great products and a wonderful museum experience. Got a new knife and a lighter to boot.

Everyone was so friendly and helpful. If you havent been there you should make a point to visit. Worth the drive!!!!!

Stop when you have time to browse! So many lighters and Case knives to see. Very clean and well organized. Staff is helpful and friendly.

Lots of history here. Was more then I expected. Worth the time to see!

Very interesting piece of northern Pennsylvania history. Small manufacturer in Bradford produces product today. Take a few minutes to visit and browse for your favorite knife or lighter.

Cool place. So much history. I love Zippo lighters.

Definitely cool! I loved the history of the zippo lighter. They had letters people wrote to Zippo from the 1940s during the war. The different designs of the lighters and even some that never were produced. My favorite was the lighters displayed that were destroyed from different things like cars, trains, machinery, dogs, shredder etc.

Nice place well worth going to they have case knives to

Cool if youre into lighters. Great American company

Free museum on history of Zippo lighters and Case knives. Lots of displays. Both have lifetime warranty work that can be brought in and worked on premises.Disappointed Zippo candle & utility lighters made in ChinaOnly Case knives have sale section. Zippo sells only retail price at museum.

Interesting and informative displays of Zippo and Case history. Reasonable gift shop.

Beautiful place about the history of Zippo. Even if you dont smoke, its worth a visit. So many lighter options!

Great one time see for those who know what zippo and case are. Gift shop was nice but expect higher prices.

Overall a good time.

Been a collector of zippos forever. Definitely worth the drive if you are in the area. Very impressed with the gift shop and you get to view the repair room.

I Go yearly and the staff and the museum are always great to interact with and I love the museum.

It gives great gift ideas. It tells the story of zippo thru the years. Educational to those who are interested.

Very cool place to see.

Great museum and store wow! Its free to get in and there is a lot to see!

Love the selection of items including everyday wear. Also the museum is top notch. So many cool items to see.

Very nice and sanitary shopping. Knives, lighters are made with nice craftsmanship. They are a bit expensive but you getting your money worth.

Nice museum and store to visit. The museum part was really interesting and set up well. The store part has a great selection of Case knives and Zippo lighters. Museum and store staff were extremely helpful with questions and helping with selections. If your looking for a little roadtrip, or are a collector I highly recommend a stop here.

Not a smoker, but enjoyed looking at all the art on the lighters-starting back from 1932 when the lighter was invented. Great gift shop with lots of Zippo clothing along with lighters and Case knives. My father always carried a Case knife.

Very bright clean, well arranged Museum! And, they had exactly what we wanted, so we bought it. Prices reasonable.

This was a enjoyable place the museum this a bit short but they have really nice stuff in the shop up front but is kinda pricey

Super cool and the staff is very friendly.

This is a great Zippo and Case XX museum and gift shop! Lots to see and buy! Great and friendly service! Looking forward to stop here again in the future!

Pretty cool museum! Was interesting to see how Zippos came about, are made and repaired. Loved it!

Great museum. Nice stuff there

Smaller museum. Entrance brings you right to the store, lots of interesting wares for sale, friendly helpful staff. Once youve done your browsing (and there is a lot to browse) you enter the museum. Many exhibits showcasing the roots of Zippo and Case. The military exhibits were very interesting showing a selection of customized lighters. Many fine examples of Case knives as well. A pleasant way to pass 90 minutes or so if you look and read everything and its free!

History board starts at 1787 and follows up to the present. Interesting.

Alot of cool artifacts that are manufactured in the US and the people are really nice take care of you check up on you if you need anything

Ive been coming to Bradford for years but never went to the zippo factory until this past weekend. It was adorable. Clean. Cute exhibits. Learned a lot. You can also see where the techs fix the broken lighters that are sent in. I went on a Saturday so there was no one there but it was cool to see their offices and equipment. Plus all of the history involved. There were some letters from customers throughout the past century showcased and some of then were hilarious when they explained what happened to their lighter, how it broke, etc. Very cool. There is a reasonably priced gift shop in the front. Lighters range from around $17 all the way up. To expensive collectors pieces. The most expensive one I noticed was $150. A gorgeous, engraved collectors piece. Aside from lighters and knives there were the typical gift shop items, sweatshirts, tees, tanks, cups, travel mugs, wine glasses, cozies, golf balls, etc.... Zippo fragrances. Other fun fire related stuff. Parking is in the back and there is overflow parking down the street. It wasnt crowded when we went, so we had no issues parking right in the front. The classic mustang (60s maybe?!??) decorated w chrome ligters on top was awesome. Great photo opp. If youre in town, I definitely recommend going. There is no entry fee, its FREE to get in and they closed at 5 on the Saturday we went.

Great place to stop. Interesting museum and the store sells limited edition Zippos that are only sold there

Alot of fun and alot of great informationTheir merchandise is just beautiful, really enjoyed it

Great place to see the history. Outstand displays of our Zippo and our armed forces. Really worth a stop and great gift shop.

Museum displays the history of Zippo lighters and Case knives. Displays contain many examples of historic and tribute lighters and knives. There are no displays showing production processes for lighters or knives.The store has a wide variety of knives and lighters for sale, but they are extremely pricy. I just can not justify $65 - $600 for a pocket knife....Stop by if you are in the area, but I would not recommend as a destination. Just not worth the trip.

A great show of a young determined entrepreneur that to this day his company supports our troops with lighters that are a tried, tested design that just work

Very interesting and informative museum with gift shop of a variety of items.Great historical facts about Zippo and Case and the Bradford area. Well worth the trip !

Awesomeness...pure awesomeness!

Have been here quite a few times since it opened; always enjoy the visit, and usually bring someone who has never been. A piece of Americana, and one I hope remains for many decades to come.

Just happened to be going by, just on a whim I wanted to stop. So glad I did!!! The museum was very informative, and layed out nicely.The gift shop is very nice. I purchased 2 lighters for my sons that are serving in the armed forces, and one for myself. I even got them engraved for a small fee, and they were very quick engraving them. The staff at the gift shop were wonderful!!! All in all it was a great stop, glad I did it!!!

Don’t pass up a visit to the museum if you get the chance! It’s free and very informative and well done. The staff in the store are friendly and helpful. We brought a candle lighter in that stopped working to see if they could fix it. The took all my info and said they’d get it done ASAP. 5 days later I had a new one in my mailbox! What a great company!!!

Must stop place. Museum goes throught the history of Zippo lighters ands Case knives. Nice gift shop where you can purchase branded merch and have it personalized as you wait. Also you can bring in a zippo light and have it repaired t no cost. Great place.

Love visiting the museum whenever we come up to visit family

Very cool place! People were very friendly and very very helpful!

What a super cool hidden gem. We made a pit stop in Bradford, PA randomly after seeing the advertisement for the Zippo/Case museum on the way home from OH. I had no idea Zippo lighters were a product of the USA let alone good ol PA. My boyfriend and I were very impressed and learned a bit of history on these windproof lighters. The gift shop was also very cool and had a lot to offer.

Ive been intrigued by this museum for awhile. I finally made the trip and was glad that I did. I have the utmost admiration for Mr. Blaisdell after learning about him at the museum. I found him to be a man that honored his country, the men that fought for it and a great businessman. The museum is free and takes about an hour to explore. I love the classic rock lighters and the knife with General Robert E. Lee on it. I only wish it was for sale.

State of the art facility, true destinationLocation in historic Bradford

We were looking for something to do during the day and had fond memories of Zippos that my dad had owned. We were impressed with the displays in the place.

Very nice museum! Well kept and friendly staff.

I Loved visiting the Zippo store and museum. They had candles, gift items, handwarmers, everything you can think of. Even BBQ accessories! That surprised me! The staff person I dealt with was polite and professional and knowledgeable about their products and policies. I had asked about the warranty on their candle lighters. A+ and worth the drive.

If you have time and are in the area you need to stop at this museum. I wish I had more time but with a two year old not much you can do. Looking forward to the next time that I’m able to stop in and check them out. I didn’t know this but you could order custom Zippos and put just about anything on them for a reasonable price.

Very cool place. My wife and I were there and had a great time seeing all that history. And the awesome displays. I recommend if your in the area to stop in (its free) and see this place.

Why wouldnt you want to see a lighter museum?

Awesome piece of history. If youre in the area, its definitely worth a visit. Also has a huge selection of collectibles and buyables.

What a wonderful place. The Museum and the repair shop, viewing are worth the time. The options for both Zippo and Case knives run the gambit of their product offerings. The price depending on the product, various greatly. Many many offerings for both lines. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I stop by every time I am in the area. Plenty of free parking.Great American story and Company.

Interesting museum with a quick history of Zippo and Case. They also have a nice collection of Zippo lighters from past and new. Also many nice Zippos you can purchase there. If you are in Bradford stop by and check this place out.

Nice selection of knives and windproof lighters.

Fantastic experience, they sell every lighter imaginable along with case knives. Staff is very polite, professional, and knowledgeable.

So cool we love it if your in Bradford Pennsylvania its a MUST SEE ...

It was a cool little museum with a lot of history!

Fun place to go through and learn some history about Zippo and Case

Its a gift shop with small museum for Zippo lighter and Case knives attached. Museum was small but interesting. Overall worth a visit if you are in Bradford.

Excellent museum honoring the legacy of Zippo lighters and Case Knives. Phenomenal gift shop on location to buy gifts for the lighter or knife lover in your family. Many great exhibits to the legacy and the US flag made of lighters was superbly designed.

Cool place. Very nice layout. Id go again.

If you love case knives and zippo lighters this is a Great place to go, we loved it

Awesome spot definitely worth stopping

This museum was well worth the detour. I had only learned about it from a brochure while traveling on I80 and knew I had to see it. The museum entrance is at the rear of the gift shop - both free to get into and both enjoyable. Its not an all day type of thing, but give yourself a couple hours to see the museum and pick out a lighter - youll definitely find a lighter you like from their vast selection!

Always a favorite trip for the entire family.

It was interesting to see the history of Zippo lighters,and Case knives.

Nice museum and friendly staff

What amazing history! Actually touches every phase of life and times. Generations of learning!

Great place! Fun to look around and shop

Definitely a cool little meusem whether you are a Zippo or case fan or not.
