Blazer brand butane

Trouthead

Newbie in the jungle
In the back of a cupboard I came upon some old fuel, (10 years old) from my first blazer. Two 150 gram containers, marked made in Korea. Says triple refined, and has a metal fill spout. It used to have some plastic adaptors for various fill ports. They have since disapeared. It does fit the Ronson's but doesn't fit an older bright yellow torch that I use outside.

Is this good fuel? Is it still made?? Where can I find the plastic adaptors?
Should I still use it. Obviously I tried it in the Ronson. It seems to have more "power" What do you all think?
 
Personally, I go through about 1-2 cans of butane a year and wouldn't chance it on a good lighter.

I use either Vector or Xikar's fuel.
 
I have found that on the Ronson Jet-Lite it makes no difference what fuel you use. I use the Ronson fuel in mine. Good stuff @ about $3.00 a gallon. :r
 
Got rummaging around a little bit more in another section of the house, and found some ZIPPO fuel. Good stuff or crap???? doesn't say triple or double or 4x refined. Came with a ZIPPO utility lighter. Never seemed to work that well in the ZIPPO. What do you guys think? don't mind buying new fuel, but hate to pay more in shipping than the cost of the fuel.
 
Both the Blazer and Zippo fuel are 3x refined and are good, imo. I don't know how age would affect it though.
