18 Waits Vices Collection: If you've got vices, may as well be classy about it...

We’ve just launched a new “Vices Collection” sold exclusively through our web store. Copper handmade flasks that read “Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea” - numbered limited edition of 25. And zippo lighters that are individually hand etched with our graphics.

The Deep Blue Sea Flask is our latest collaboration with U.S. manufacturer Jacob Bromwell. Established in Cincinnati, Ohio by frontier entrepreneur Jacob Bromwell in 1819, Jacob Bromwell Co. is the oldest kitchenwares manufacturer, marketer, and retailer in the United States. Today, their specialty products retain a rustic touch that Jacob Bromwell acquired on the American frontier. Loyal to their American roots, their company is entirely U.S. based and continues to manufacture all of their products in the USA. “Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea” is the title of a George Harrison song but it’s also an old saying that basically means “between a rock and a hard place.” So, if you find yourself in this sort of fenario, you may as well have a full flask at the ready.

We collaborated with a local Toronto artist who hand etches our graphics into Zippo brand lighters. Available in Matte Black or Traditional Brass. The “Blackbeard" - skeleton with the trident - was the actual logo that the most feared pirate - Blackbeard - flew above his mast on his pirating forays.
