Cigar cutters

A cigar cutter, as the name suggests, is used to cut the head of a cigar. More precisely, it is the accessory that opens the cigar. It is one of the staple items a smoker owns.

A tobacco leaf wraps the head of the cigar. Cutting that head is necessary before the cigar can be smoked. There is a wide selection of cutters, each making a different kind of cut.

The major French makers of cigar accessories produce high-end cutters. A cigar cutter can be a decorative object, and it can equally be something handed down from one generation to the next. The range of models is wide: double-blade cutters, cigar scissors, double-blade guillotine cutters, Porsche Design cutters, Victorinox cutters and others.

They can be made of stainless steel, PVC, inox, brass and so on. Among the high-end cutters is the one from S.T. Dupont. To cut a cigar with it, you simply place the cigar in the guillotine mechanism that appears when you press on each side of the cutter.

The Lamborghini cigar cutter also combines function and elegance. It is simple to use: press the button on the front and two blades come out. The cigar is then inserted between them and the blades are closed by hand.

The Victorinox cigar cutter is another highly functional and well-designed model. It is both a punch and a pair of scissors. In the end, it is worth choosing a cutter with care, because the draw of the cigar depends on the cut.
