Genuine question. I use a cutter usually but am sick to death of when they blunt and mess up my stick so I brought a punch.
1: how do I use it?
2: how far in do i push the blade? do i need to remove a core or just the wrapper end?
3: Is there a technique to not messing up and crushing the wrapper etc?
Thanks guys :)
Rotate it while you're pushing it into the end of the cigar.
Pretty much says it all !Quote:

cheers fellas, that was exactly what I needed :) will try it out thursday night
For those that are interested, I did give the punch a go last night on a Robusto. A slight twist, it was more simple than I thought. I removed possibly about a mm of filler.
The draw was a little tighter than usual but not a problem. Probably better than my usual cut, but it helped the cigar a lot and means I wasn't chewing on leaves by the end of it.
